- Comment on should I go back to my old job now that several people, some of them more knowledgeable than me have told me they don't understand my decision to quit it? 2 weeks ago:
My point was just that if most people value A over B, while you value B more, people will say youre stupid when they see you getting B insteas of A all the time.

People fail to consider that different people have different sets of values.

You have to shield yourself from those red shells. When youre in a good position, you get the banana peels more often, if you press and hold the button that throws the item, you keep the peel behind you and can use it as a shield against shells.

I dont know what these jobs are like. If you have less stress in your current job, thats an important point, but maybe not a decisive factor… Have you asked those “smarter” people why they think thats a bad decision?
It may be that people are bothered by seeing someone take decisions differently than they do, they might feel their own decisions being implicitly questioned, so they might be reacting in a way that reaffirms their own values.
If you ask them to express what is stupid about you decision you may get a better feeling for if they actually have a point or if theyre just reacting badly out of their personal insecurities or smthing.

Gluttony would be a better word.
Obesity is something else. People rarely actually want to be obese, but who is actually bothered by having too much money? I guess that makes the wording sound weird to me.

Calling that financial obesity is so weird.

Being a predator is not a property, its a relation. X is a predator of Y… but not of Z, and is a prey of V and not of W.

- Comment on PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners 5 weeks ago:
The 2.0 update was made into a new package in fdroid, so that you paid close attention to the upgrade, as it could maybe break things.
- Comment on YSK Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, diplomats, government officials. Everyone was terrified. 5 weeks ago:
but the average people have been misled and lied to and been brainwashed for so long, they need to be forcibly broken out of that bubble. And the only way to force that is through a revolution, and authoritarian enforcement of the socioeconomic system.
That word “only” seems too pessimistic and unjustified, and your point relies too heavily on it.

- Comment on If we ever find a planet with life in it, we could never set foot on it, because the interaction of the two biologies can have unpredictable consequences 5 weeks ago:
Life is already unpredictable. We can take some safety measures, but we cant pretend that not doing this particular thing is going to keep our history under control. We dont have anything under control.

- Comment on China solves 'century-old problem' with new analog chip that is 1,000 times faster than high-end Nvidia GPUs 1 month ago:
Digital systems are built on analog systems, as you observed. A continuous voltage range is reduced to two possible states: high voltage (the upper part of that range) and low voltage (the lower part of that range). Then, we design algorithms that manipulate these high/low voltages that only consider the two possibilities of either being high or low. Since we dont consider what the actual voltages are, just if they are high or low, we are doing digital computing, we are not taking full advantage of the analog potential of the physical objects we are using underneath the sheets.
- Comment on Exactly Six Months Ago, the CEO of Anthropic Said That in Six Months AI Would Be Writing 90 Percent of Code 3 months ago:
Volume means nothing. It could easily be writing 99.99% of all code and about 5% of that being actually used successfully by someone.

Im sure the us uses its tech dominance to sway political opinions one way or another in my country (brazil). And spying on people is a requirement for that. It seems like an attitude in line with the history of the relations between us and brazil (and countless other countries). China probably tries that too, although i dont have a strong historical evidence for that disposition from china.

Soon aurora store may stop working. They could add some crap to the apks in the play store that checks whether the phone has google services. So either the devs put their apks somewhere, or they put their binaries on the play store, which will just be a useless blob for those that dont have play services. Then we get another shitty cat an mouse game about spoofing play services, them catching up, on repeat.
