You must be kidding me.

The most important lesson from Gen AI is that it does not matter how much money you have, make, lose, or spend because in the long run everyone is…

So the logical next step is to focus on Biological Immortality and short of that Digital Immortality. God speed everyone.

Meanwhile, homebrew install instructions:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/inst...)"

Then it prompts user for admin previledges. Also, it does not support installing as a local non-admin user.

Is anyone still working on functional immortality? Are we going to get SAGI before it? How is the head/body freezing scene nowadays?

This is a very condescending toward Vietnamese tech people. According to Twitter/X, Vietnam’s GDP just surpassed Thailand and it’s on its way to joining the Great East Asian prosperity zone by becoming the last country to become fully industrialized and very rich. Many tech jobs in the US will move to Vietnam in the coming few years. You will be surprised where your future Tech conferences will be located.

The complainer is a self-proclaimed policy wonk. I am sure he knows all the corrext policies to enforce include NSFW content policies. Heck, looking at his comment history, I get the impression that he might be a policy wonk in everything.

Good riddance. The web needs to shed all the old baggages like this to move forward. Looking forward to MCP becoming part of the browser.

The most interesting question is how many management positions got axed as part of this.

No

In other news, global productivity measures have mysteriously increased significantly in the last 25 minutes.

Thank you for the feedback. I got carried away. I will follow the guidelines.

Replying to JumpCrisscross response below:

>> Negative racial stereotype as a definition of racism is the classical definition of racism

>It wasn’t racial stereotyping. It was stereotyping a country’s population as sad and desperate. Saying X country’s quality of life sucks isn’t racist.

>If they’d said or implied Cambodian Americans are also sad and desperate, sure. But they didn’t.

This is a distinction without a difference. A negative stereotype about the people of a country is a stereotype about that country's dominant ethnic group. Their geographic location is irrelevant.

By this logic, saying "All Japanese people are [X]" is not a racial stereotype as long as you're only talking about the ones in Japan. It only magically becomes a racial stereotype when they are "Japanese Americans." This doesn't make sense.

There's a fundamental difference between:

Criticizing a state: "Cambodia's economy is struggling and its government is corrupt." Stereotyping a people: "The people of Cambodia are inherently sad and desperate." The original comment did the latter. That is, by definition, a negative ethnic stereotype.

> Saying we can’t negatively stereotype basically says you can only have positive opinions about this country

This logical fallacy is a False Dichotomy (also known as a False Dilemma or Black-and-White Fallacy).

This fallacy occurs when an argument incorrectly presents two opposing options as the only possibilities, when in fact a wide range of other options exist.

How it applies to the statement: The statement "Saying we can’t negatively stereotype basically says you can only have positive opinions about this country" creates a false choice between:

Option A: Engaging in negative stereotypes. Option B: Only having positive opinions. This completely ignores the vast and reasonable middle ground, which is legitimate, specific criticism.

Negative racial stereotype as a definition of racism is the classical definition of racism. There is nothing postmodern about it.

How and where in the Merriam-Webster are these supposed to be measures of “desperation”? Where is the citation for Cambodians going to work in Vietnam and not the other way around?

Also, cherry picking PPP GDP instead of commonly used nominal GDP to avoid conceding a point is quite desperate. Cambodia has a higher GDP per capita than Bangladesh but you won’t admit that. Can you buy a barrel of crude oil with PPP dollar? Also, you haven’t admitted that you are clueless about the current Bangladesh political and economic mess. https://thefinancialexpress.com.bd/stock/foreign-investors-f...

If you want to play the comparison game, the average Vietnamese can also be said to be much poorer and much more desperate than the average Malaysian based on your flawed reasoning.

Here are some really desperate Vietnamese trying to run away from Vietnam into the UK: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy8y3l7e2vjo.amp

Yes, I agree the US is an a great country. The US culture is still the most influential in the world. Everyone loves American foods, movies, and consumer products.

Cambodians love American culture. Young Cambodians are desperate to see new American movies, try American foods, and get their hands on new Apple products. They love Facebook. The majority of Cambodians favor the US over China: https://www.statista.com/chart/32058/preference-for-us-china...

Interestingly, the majority of Thais favor China over the US. The most likely reason I guess would that a very large percentage of Thais claim some form of Chinese ancestry.

Citations needed for almost everything you just wrote.

On the other hand, South Korea has the right to do whatever it wants within its rights. I strongly support South Korea in its geo-strategic calculus to isolate Cambodia government. They must have very good reason to believe this is the right course of actions.

Cambodian government should learn from this experience and improve its law enforcement and its own geo-strategic planning.

> There is no reason why Cambodia can't pull off a similar developmental story like Vietnam or Bangladesh

Again with the Bangladesh comparison. Can you google Bangladesh and read news about it in the last year before commenting?

We would assume that the time-space traveler would have to tell the machine both the time and space directions from their current position in time and space. Assuming the time-space traveler cannot stop to observe his or her “location” in time-space coordinate along the way in small increments, he would have to calculate the entire travel trajectory beforehand.

I am saying this trajectory calculation relative to current coordinates is impossible. Even modern satellites with super precise instruments still need regular ongoing “adjustments.” Time travel requires many order of magnitude more precision than satellite orbital maintenance.

Most time travel theories ignore the fact that the earth is not fixed in space. It is moving relative to the sun in the solar system and the solar system is moving relative to the center of the galaxy, and the galaxy is… etc. A motion in each of these systems is not 100% accurately predictable forward or backward in time.

This fact alone means that any time traveler is most likely to arrive in the middle of empty space.

Imagine how useful it would be we could just add a button show our approval or disapproval of a piece of content without having to type true or false in the comment section. Let’s call it upvote or downvote button.

LLM’s source of “knowledge” is almost purely statistical. The prompt injections create statistical noise that make the token search a crapshoot. My guess is there are certain words and phrases that generate and amplifies the statistical noise.

How do you fix a weird bug in a black box? Return null.

The problem is that the rabbit-hole dwellers use the word “deception” to try to invoke some spooky ghost-in-the-machine or AGI or ASI or self-awareness or self-preservation-seeking vibes based on the observed behaviors.

My point is the observation is not support for such vibes referenced in og-parent post. You can’t just rearrange bits and hope for a spark of life. It is not gonna “come live.” The rabbit-hole dwellers keep trying to make everyone believe that. It is both amusing and tiring how persistent they are at this. It is understandable considering the money they stand to gain from gullible people rushing to invest.

Based on your response, all Indians are just future Americans waiting to become one and any policy against the interest of India and its people now is racism. Perfectly logical but completely absurd.

This event was predicted by the Oracle of Delphi. Seriously, everyone knew this was just waiting to happen. The pawning will continue until everyone stops water-hosing the kool aid.
