- Comment on What should we actually turn our aggression towards? 5 days ago:
The presence of a profit opportunity is what gets those politicians elected though. The system is fueled by money, and that money comes from corporations. It’s kind of a chicken and egg problem, but there exist politicians that can and do try to combat these companies. They’re just outnumbered by greedy, soulless husks. The politicians are the symptom in my opinion, because they are not per se greedy and evil, whereas publicly-funded corporations, by the nature of their fiduciary duty to stockholders, are by definition greedy.
- Comment on What should we actually turn our aggression towards? 5 days ago:
Politicians aren’t intrinsically evil though. Corporations are. The concept of a publicly-traded corporation is basically an institutionally constructed super-rich psychopath. They’re the reason politicians are usually evil. Aim for the root cause.

- Comment on Can a reasonable person genuinely believe in ghosts? 2 weeks ago:
Yes, quantum scale has macro effect, but the macro scale is predictable and rigidly causal, negating any meaningful quantum scale interactional impact. A macro causation effected via quantum interactions is a de facto macro interaction.

I don’t mean that any given magnetic field is unchanging, I mean that the principles are stable and well-understood. We never see magnetic fields just randomly change with no reason or else navigation and all kinds of other technologies would be fucked forever.

So you’re hung up on the phrasing “physical forces” not appearing in a textbook?

I’m not making shit up as I go. If you don’t understand something, it isn’t consequently nonsensical.
- Comment on Can a reasonable person genuinely believe in ghosts? 3 weeks ago:
I mean there’s no way to go from immeasurable to measurable except in scale, and anywhere north of quantum scale, physics has been reliably predictable and measurable. Ghosts’ purported impact is on a scale well above that which is unexplained.
- Comment on Can a reasonable person genuinely believe in ghosts? 3 weeks ago:
Magnetism is a physical force, like gravity. Measurable and consistent.
- Comment on Can a reasonable person genuinely believe in ghosts? 3 weeks ago:
Science has never in the history of science reliably shown a single interaction between physical entities and any sort of non-physical force. The only way ghosts could be real is if you redefined the term “ghost” to the point of breaking, like saying that the memory of a person is a ghost.
Plus, it fails the smell test in a million ways. What makes a ghost exist? Why aren’t we positively lousy with ghosts? Are there rules? What would they be and what mechanism is there to both quantify and effect them? Why do ghosts follow the rotation and revolution of the earth but otherwise aren’t physically bound? How can one have any sort of cognition? If a ghost does, how can it perceive anything without intercepting photons or other physical phenomena? If there are ghosts and somehow they have cognition and perception, are we obligated to leave Netflix on when we leave for work?

You know I was just thinking that what OpenAI needs to really succeed is someone who knows how to haphazardly throw together a wildly irresponsible, insecure, and unsafe tool that gets really popular really quickly.
- Comment on DoorDashers are getting paid to close Waymo's self-driving car doors 4 weeks ago:
This, along with the story of the driverless car running over a beloved neighborhood cat, highlight the fundamental problem here: they’re training these systems to be autonomous cars - and they’re impressively close - but they’re still miles away from creating a simulation of an autonomous human. Not everything about operating a car is driving it.

Tesla’s KPIs aren’t selling good cars or making customers happy. There’s only one, and it’s making money for investors. It’s never been worth anything close to its valuation. It’s just a tool (run by a tool) for tools to get rich on.
