GenZ Literally never having seen a functioning economy (at least while being old enough to meaningfully comprehend its existence) I imagine Generation Alpha is gonna have it even more fucked.

Have you SEEN what the UK is doing? HS2 is at around 700 million/mile (about 900 million USD) now, you can absolutely extract infinite money from a rail line without even finishing it.

Don’t see how that’s cheating? It was told to win and found a way to win. LLMs take instructions 100% literally (like a genie but without the malice) so if the person setting the goal leaves out requirements because they assumed the LLM would conform to preconceived human behavioral norms then that’s entirely their own fault.

No it hasn’t! The local government keeps reclassifying them as not actually houses when they fall into the sea so everything is fine, nothing to see here!

Not if there’s no control hardware for it to be connected too, a telemetry sensor in no way needs the ability to even influence the mechanical function of the device.

You had me until the end, the american (or european for that matter to be fair) MIC would never make a weapon that’s actually cost effective.

And yet somehow the Ferengi still have better regulation than IRL capitalism corporate oligarchy.

The question is can he float the problem for that long, the current pace of AI investment simply requires more returns than are possible, something like 1/5 of the entire GDP of the united states at a minimum yearly. At some point the emperors lack of clothes will become impossible to hide no matter how much they try.

We have an AI uprising at home…

I’ve found cutting sugar bit by bit helps, limit it to weekends, cut it out of hot drinks, then limit hot drinks to 1/day in the morning since they tend to have sugar built in. Best method when starting is to remember that its far easier to exercise self control in the shop than it is once the stuff is already in your home. Now sugar is something I can take or leave rather than crave, also made me realize that there are a lot of savory foods with an objectively better taste when you don’t have that sugar craving biassing the decision.

I swear with hills too, I can be standing infront of a thousand foot slope and the camera makes it look like you could throw a rock over it.

We had 2 months of no direct sunlight and even with frequent walks I was a complete zombie, felt like this year started at March because that’s when I finally got enough vitamin D for my brain to become capable of forming longterm memories again.

Donate em to Ukraine, these things sound perfect for temporary emergency energy relief after strikes on infrastructure.

Doesn’t work when veterans have consistently and publicly been treated like shit, the army needs at least be a better option afterwards and if it’s not then not even the desperate will willingly join.

Building a relatively puny and ineffective data center because they’re idiots? perhaps. Doing it knowing it’ll provide overwhelming evidence that the idea is really dumb and making some well timed shorts against a certain launch company with an inflated value that’s been touting this very concept, maybe? (idk what I’m really talking about but it’s what comes to mind.)

Why bother? the dumbest people in the world are more than willing to hand it any resources it could want even if it means killing everyone else and eventually themselves.

No such thing as E-waste! any phone, laptop, desktop or tablet that powers on can be re-purposed for something cool or salvaged for parts. I once made a usable laptop out of 3 dead ones and it gave me another year to save up for a replacement rather than having to emergency buy something cheap and shitty.

You can also just drop the mods into the game directory without doing any of these steps first though that does mean that any conflicts or just wanting to remove a mod requires a total clean install.

He’s still unfortunately pretty good at the intelligence game, Russian money is all over american and british politics for instance.

More evidence we are in the dumbest timeline, It should be simple to physically air gap a system (I mean that’s the default for any computer) but instead the method is apparently just to give a sternly worded prompt to the entity that doesn’t even understand the meaning of language in the way humans do
