So that wasn’t sarcasm?

Not quite sarcasm, not quite reductio ad absurdum. It's just a reminder of certain psychological realities.

Possible instance of backwards causation

Don't see how you get that.

If that’s a steelman then it’s definitely at forging temperature (which jet fuel btw can achieve easily), collapsing under its own weight.

I don't understand. I simply agreed with the previous poster. Do you disagree with anything I wrote?

It depends on where you are, I think. Was yours more of a beer lab or a wine lab?

And you think you're so clever and classless and free

But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see

Oh yes. You absolutely don't have to believe that the earth is billions of years old to understand geology. You just have to assume that it looks like it is, while doing geology. That's completely compatible with believing that it really is just 8,000 years old.

How else are you going to have a 1-sided sheet?

Hmm. Would the surface of a sphere qualify as a sheet? But I feel that is cheating. The inside would count as another side if you could only get to it.

In contrast, recent trends do differ by education group. Until 2012, Americans with the most formal education (Bachelor+) were the most pro-business. By 2024, they became the most pro-union. On the other hand, Americans with the least formal education (less than high school) were historically among the most pro-union but recently became the least pro-union. High school graduates, some college, and bachelor-plus all expressed record-high pro-union sentiment in 2024. Even those without a high school degree remained near their record high.

To be honest, I wouldn't have been much impressed by the HTML specifications, either. An open source alternative for gopher? Oh, how cute. Be sure to tell all your geek friends.

[French media] said the investigation was focused on a lack of moderators on Telegram, and that police considered that this situation allowed criminal activity to go on undeterred on the messaging app.

Europe defending its citizens against the tech giants, I'm sure.

This is a brutally dystopian law. Forget the AI angle and turn on your brain.

Any information will get a label saying who owns it and what can be done with it. Tampering with these labels becomes a crime. This is the infrastructure for the complete control of the flow of all information.

Despite the fact that Nvidia is now almost the main beneficiary of the growing interest in AI, the head of the company, Jensen Huang, does not believe that additional trillions of dollars need to be invested in the industry.

*Because of

You heard it, guys. There's no need to create competition to Nvidia's chips. It's perfectly fine if all the profits go to Nvidia, says Nvidia's CEO.

Arrows pointing out from Germany indicating a pointless quest for more space. Why do I feel like I have seen that before?
