Seal of the Apocalypse

I was born after the end. Born to watch the world burn. Yet I am hopeful.
"We are winning bc we are pumping fiat money into stonks" Jesus Christ how it's gonna be rough.
Yes, the U.S. stock market is making new highs. Question is it too overheated. Yes, absurdly so. Everyone knows it. Will it burst? Well… Well you must understand what’s really happening. THEY have turned the global economy into a zero sum game and we are winning. To…
Boomercon’s vision: patchwork sovereign citizens filing AI generated 10k pg lawsuits met by 20k pg rebuttals no Human man ever reads. Ruled over by gerontocratic medically augmented 120 year lifespans. Filipinas only legal wives
A partner at a prominent law firm told me “AI is now doing work that used to be done by 1st to 3rd year associates. AI can generate a motion in an hour that might take an associate a week. And the work is better. Someone should tell the folks applying to law school right now.”

The Motuo Hydropower project, will generate 3 times the electricity of the 3 Gorges Dam. It involves drilling tunnels over 50km long, cutting the great bend on the Yarlung Zangbo river, redirecting the torrent of water through the mountains with a vertical elevation drop of 2000…
LLMs aren’t just autocompletes or stochastic parrots, but they’re also not digital humans either. They’re a new class of exotic cognitive agents whose weirdness shouldn’t be overlooked.
LLMs are weirder than we think with all sorts of complex implications that we don’t fully understand.
Some guy: “LLMs don’t reason, think, or understand.” Me: “There’s no consensus on any of those terms in cognitive science or philosophy of mind.” Some guy: “okay, but here’s what I mean by them…”
I really wish people offering this kind of take would delve a little bit into the thousands of years of philosophers arguing about what it means for human minds to “know” things — it’s not obvious, meaning it’s equally non-obvious when you ask about a silicon mind.
Remember when people would argue things like "Norway shows the resource curse only applies to countries with bad institutions"
NRO standing athwart history yelling “leave the deep state alone!”
Donald Trump was the victim of an iniquitous dirty trick in 2016, but Tulsi Gabbard has presented nothing new about Barack Obama’s involvement. trib.al/JvRpPFZ

Westoids LOVE making up a fake fantasy Solzhenitsyn who would agree with them
Probably not, seeing as he died in 2008. I imagine he would have seen expressions such as “NATO expansion in the east” as a pathetically dishonest defence of Russian imperialism.
Just switch that to 'Belarus' or 'Ukraine' and your tweet is basically correct.
Russia will never forgive the Baltic states for becoming prosperous, democratic and thriving countries after breaking free from Russian/Soviet occupation.
Tom Lehrer outlived the reporter who wrote his obituary, which would probably have amused him. archive.is/89a1G

It is you who are trapped in an outdated paradigm. Actually, nothing exists until it is reported in the Washington Post. Truth is weak. It does not make its own way in the world. At best it “prevails when none care if it prevail or not.” Can it get to the Post? Maybe on a tank
Eric Schmitt wasn’t the first GOP official to completely bark up the wrong tree, and he won’t be the last. These people still seem trapped in an outdated paradigm where something doesn’t exist until it appears in The Washington Post. It’s honestly a pathetic state of affairs,…
Jonestown was always described as a religious cult, so I was shocked to learn that it was a left-wing organization: isegoria.net/2013/07/jim-jo…
999 of 1000 Americans associate Jonestown more with powdered drinks than communism. It wasn’t Kool-Aid. It was Flavor-Aid. Also they’re “progressives” now, it’s different
Your wife is an independent agent that’s accountable to BAP. Where in the marriage license does it say that, you ask her. Did we say it on stage? There is no reply, just the rusty boxspring
None - it's an independent agency that's accountable to Congress.
