No, forward slash. No, the — It’s the one that goes up and to the right. No you do have one, trust me, just keep look — No, you can’t just use the “other slash”, and it’s called “backslash”. … Well because different things mean different things, Phil. sigh Just, it’s the one you think of when you write a fraction. No that’s a hyphen. It’s angled, remember? Why did you type 5? Oh, the percent sign. No I see why that — Well, because you didn’t use the shift key. Yeah it’s the one — You just hit enter, didn’t you?

“Did you just have Claude ship all this code?”

“Yep”

“You shouldn’t ship code you don’t understand…”

“Good point. Claude, go understand this code for me!”

Culture is our most important invention as a species. So important, in fact, that we’ve evolved to make it essential to our individual health and collective capacity to function. To deny someone access to interact with culture on the basis of their lack of wealth is cruel and anti-human.

Likewise, developing something like an LLM, which spews thoughtless pollution into the only shared infosphere we have, and displaces individuals’ ability to connect to each other to develop culture… that is an existential threat to the human race and should be opposed vehemently.

Who can even say? The developer said he’s never seen the code.

Technically, nowhere. Every US dollar is spent into existence and taxed out of existence.

Perpetual loop of “bounty encourages bad reports”, “canceled bounty”, “bug reports improve”, “bounty comes back”, “bounty encourages bad reports”…

Tale as old as time.

Progressive voters view progressive politicians as unreliable because they regularly abandon principles in favor of victory.

Science fiction’s superpower isn’t thinking up new technologies – it’s thinking up new social arrangements for technology. What the gadget does is nowhere near as important as who the gadget does it for and who it does it to. Your car can use a cutting-edge computer vision system to alert you when you’re drifting out of your lane – or it can use that same system to narc you out to your insurer so they can raise your premiums by $10 that month to punish you for inattentive driving. Same gadget, different social arrangement.

Learned about it from this episode of the Team Human podcast

But what is happening in Hong Kong is they come up with a slogan, which is translated as Do Not Split, which is, we know that some people are willing to be confrontational with riot police.

And when they are, that's going to cost the state in terms of not only resources, but it's going to cost the state in terms of political capital and support. And we know that there are some people who are not willing to do that. And we are going to abide by the protocol of Do Not Split, which means that we're not going to criticize them openly, and they're not going to criticize us openly.

If we're the pacifists, we're not going to have them criticize us for being sort of like, I don't know, limpid or flaccid or not courageous or whatever. And we're not going to criticize them for being more confrontational. And the thing is that the support is also tacit.

It's not like they have to come out and tell the media, oh, we approve of our more sort of confrontational colleagues. They just keep quiet. They just keep quiet.

Understanding that a range of tactics is probably going to be necessary. Nobody really knows what's going to work. But if everybody's pushing back against a particularly violent state, then everybody's really on the same side.
