• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(Controversial) Political parties are like bundled sales.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IMO if MPs can learn to discern these people, LLMs can too. Not saying the tech is there yet though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(Controversial) Political parties are like bundled sales.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a weakness of all forms of representative democracy, partisan and non partisan alike. I can picture liquid democracy solving this, where you delegate votes on stuff that you dont care about to your preferred MP, but retain your direct vote for bills you do care about. Another, albeit not yet viable, solution discussed on plurality.net is an AI parliament that summarizes the opinions of the entire voterbase. This type of problem is called Broad Listening (summarizing and grouping a superhuman amount of opinions), and LLMs have the potential to be very good at this. The best solution so far was the system of local MPs but truly effectove broad listening is, obviously, a task that is beyond their abilities/will.

  Good luck choking sea turtles by throwing straws in the river. The only turtles you’ll choke that way are the river turtles

  I doubt it’s that easy. There will be disciplinary systems. And if they quit, I’m sure the govt will find people with fewer morals to take their place.

  Wtf is going on with Dalton

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Huh?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, they are actively talking to me as my brain is booting. At least they’re the first ones to talk on the call, so you have at least that time to gain your bearings

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wealth inequality seems like the only outcome in a system where capital gains are taxed less than labor⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like perhaps a slightly easier first step would be to push for a cap that is higher than anybody’s wealth (say £10B) — so that the debate is initially only about the principle — and only then demand it be lowered. 1) salami slicing works, and 2) even just the fact of there being one (albeit unreachable) would imo do a lot psychologically.

  This sounds like a reasonable case for tariffs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Post your homescreen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So long as it works!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Post your homescreen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ahh ofc. What I’ve found useful is for my alarm to play an internet radio news channel. The constant flow of information gradually wakes my brain up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Post your homescreen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you got in a time machine⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t be bothered to tinker with that stuff. I need someone to offer me a flatpak

  Imho a hard cap on personal wealth would be sufficient.
