I believe that AI including chatgpt and genAI are a good thing and they bring us one step closer to where humanity should be going.

I also think that feminism was instigated by the CIA, that Israel is losing the Iran war on purpose, and what else can i tell you? Lots of diverging opinions.

I just rarely bother to formulate them because all it will cause is lots of people categorically saying "no you're wrong" and i don't really get anything from that.

if adora and jessica stop posting, blahaj.zone might as well close.

I'd also like to interject that physics deals with models of how the world works, i.e. physicists make predictions about what would happen in specific scenarios. That has nothing to do with knowing what goes on underneath, because we can't know that.

Consider quantum physics. It might be that the universe is indeed a wave and that's just how things are. But it could also be possible that we're living our entire lives in a simulation, whoever hosts the simulation is having a tea party and giggling at us silly being on how we're confused by our observations. You can't really tell these two apart, experimentally, since they would have the same outcome. So physics can't really tell about what things are, just how they behave in certain situations. That's why i think of physics as models, not theory (because "theory" carries a starker claim to absolute truth to me).

interesting! i had wondered whether that exists. the wikipedia page on radionuclides seems to hint so since it gives 10 kg as a possible total mass of fissile material in a critical scenarion but i still had doubts till now.

and here i was contemplating yesterday whether interstellar rockets will ever use antimatter drives and when the technology to store and transport antimatter will ever mature ...

just add wheels to the ships and make them drive over land

in other words, he wants to make the problems he created other people's problems

hmm seems i'm mixing something up in my head

nature truly thought of everything!

breadcrumbs in bed are actually totally fine once you stop caring

eh, i saw it but didn't like it much

wait it is the one with the girl playing violin and the boy playing piano, right?

appropriate i'm reading this at 4:46 am

this is the way. renting a city apartment + investing in stocks for the same amount of monthly total expenses is more profitable

there's a lot of negative feedback loops in nature (it sounds negative but is actually a positive thing). it means that when you have a tendency going one way, then that creates a counter-pressure which makes the tendency go the other way.

so if people have less children today, that somehow will make it more attractive for future generations to have more children. in the end, it will oscillate (go up and down) until it stabilizes around a stable value. so no worries, it's gonna be fine.

another 50 points for griffindor!

The US government wants people to be stupid so they can be manipulated more easily

and will be having their own kids soon

that's a stretch. iirc people have kids at 32 these days

If the students don't want to learn, then it's better that they don't learn. They shouldn't be forced to learn.

that's not what i meant.

now they have heard it 6 times used.
