Next few decades I guess. After that it’s pretty hard to make any reasonably accurate predictions about the future.

Are you talking about the hugging face stuff?

I’m not sure exactly what you mean by believing it.

I think the evidence seems good that it happened but I definitely don’t buy the spin these companies are putting out about what happened. Either they deliberately engineered this to happen as a publicity stunt or their engineers were extremely, perhaps criminally negligent in how they tested their models. I think a criminal investigation is appropriate but no agency overseeing this has the balls or interest in doing so, it seems.

OK. But that was the reasoning you used to declare them terrorists.

Personally I don’t think terrorism is a useful or coherent concept at all.

I don’t see any realistic way AI is going to wipe out humanity in the near to medium term. That’s just hype for the IPO.

You can just see the confusion on everyone’s faces lol

I just wish there was one place in LA I could drive my car without having to deal with these menacing cyclists but big bike is everywhere now! 😢

I think you can still upvote an opinion you agree with if it’s distinctly unpopular.

Even then, mainstream dems do not support this.

So their agenda is restore the status quo. I had hoped maybe there would be more ambition than that.

Ironically he’s gotten more popular by pushing back against Trump even though he’s basically the same guy with the same opinions. Nationalists sure are stupid.

Well rolling coal on trains is well-established technology, we just have to go back to it.

Immigrants should be allowed to vote after some residency period, so this entire debate is pointless.

I’m having trouble understanding the article. How is the new office holder selected under this proposal? What existing process? It doesn’t seem to say.

Canada has a strange system where the province has total supremacy over city decisions. In my opinion it’s a very backwards way to do things but I don’t live there so…

How is pointing out that people who don’t own cars need ways to get around a strawman? It directly undermines the point you were making.

Most urban cyclists are not rich white men. The Lycra crowd usually sticks to recreational trails or more rural or suburban roads.

Edit: just to add some data here.

A better way to look at the distribution is to consider the median income of bike commuters, relative to other commuters.  The median bike commuter had a household income of about $72,000 according to this data series, meaning about half of all bike commuters have household incomes less than that amount and half have more.  To put than in context, the median car commuter had a household income of about $82,000.  So, on average, bike commuters live in lower income households than car commuters.  For reference, the median bus commuter lived in a household with an income of about $62,000.

TLDR it’s actually car commuters that are the wealthier demographic. So if your concern for the poor was genuine, you would support more bike lanes. But somehow I doubt you will change your tune…

Clearly coming from someone who has never once paid attention to the people who cycle. Cycling infrastructure is essential for the poor who don’t own cars.

I remember feeling kind of like you some years back and thinking surely this is just drama from terminally online people right? But then I finally did look into it and consider it and I did conclude that the woman really is a huge asshole.

Warning: mildly disturbing puppet

These are really under-ripe. Do they still taste good when they’re so green?
