eucryphia··on Why are European countries moving their gold out of North America?
After Bernie’s Bros have run out of other’s money, they’ll run out of other country’s gold.
eucryphia··on I Want a Wife (1971) [pdf]
Yes, there are no solutions, only trade offs.

I believe procreation is the highest impact a human can achieve.

The result of 14 billion years of cosmic evolution, a thermodynamic miracle, the waking universe looking back on itself.

Imagine what we can achieve when robots can do the laundry and dishes.

eucryphia··on The Tariff Cost: analysis of the costs to Americans from new tariffs on Canada
Get back to us when Canada cuts its 300% tariff on butter.
eucryphia··on West Point Professor Fired for Refusing to Lie About Climate Change
Rather he was fired because his research was irrelevant.

In any case there are millions of US activists that will advise you about anthropogenic global warming for free, just ask them.

eucryphia··on Economy in an automated post-scarcity society
AI and robots don’t refute the Socialist Calculation Debate.

Get back to us with your proposal to genetically modify human nature.

Hopefully by then we’ll still be allowed to vote it down.

eucryphia··on David Ellison: Here's Why You Can Trust Me with the News
Published in the paywalled NYT.

“Instead, a new consensus has emerged in the press, but perhaps especially at this paper [NYT] that truth isn’t a process of collective discovery, but an orthodoxy already known to an enlightened few whose job is to inform everyone else.” - Bari Weiss

eucryphia··on The Case for Colonising Titan
It all sounds too hard, just send the robots to build ringworlds at habitable distances.
eucryphia··on [dead]
Fantastic! This will tie up the hapless far-left democrats chasing their tails, squandering their donors money, advancing their Marxist capture, rendering them unelectable.
eucryphia··on Physical AGI's fist steps will be in the fields, not factories
I suspect deploying AGI in US agriculture is more of an existential crisis for tin pot socialist kleptocracies that rely on remittances from exported labour.
eucryphia··on DOJ Now Citing Fake AI-Generated Cases to Keep ICE Detainees Locked Up
Surely all the illegal Nicaraguans will want to go home now.
eucryphia··on What the World Should Learn from Australia's Social Media Law
I only ever believed half of what my childhood friends told me back in the 60’s and I knew them personally.

The Marxist-Trotskyist Labor government aren’t protecting children, they’re implementing their proposed “Press Council” by stealth. They’ve recently started funding only the Woke Love Media that’s running out of subscribers.

eucryphia··on The EU is not about to censor access to the internet
The same bureaucrats that claimed they’re not implementing demographic replacement.

“It’s not happening, but if it does, you had it coming.”

eucryphia··on What will be left for us to work on?
If AI is used to solve the socialist calculation problem, most of you will die.

If AI is subject to private ownership in a competitive market between competing suppliers, it will be like better cars, we’ll just drive faster.

Power consumption will be a limiting factor in those countries relying on intermittent, weather dependent power generation with no base load. Especially if users prefer Apple’s privacy first AI on edge devices.

Hopefully in western countries it can encourage more young women to bear three children before they turn 35. Young men have to pick up their game and create an environment to redirect their suicidal empathy into more productive pursuits.

“Where can you find another non-linear servo-mechanism weighing only 150 pounds and having great adaptability, that can be produced so cheaply by completely un-skilled labour?” - Albert Crossfield 1954

eucryphia··on Irish datacenters now guzzle 23% of the country's electricity
Spot on @cadamsdotcom

If you don’t want your landscape vandalised with windmills and powerlines, go nuclear. Especially where the weather is consistently miserable, not conducive to solar power.

eucryphia··on Ask HN: Are You Hopeful for the Future?
The Gramsican march through the institutions is complete. 300 million fully armed and trained Americans are the only thing holding back international socialism. The global 7% can be taken out in seconds by a couple of dozen CCP neutron bombs. Socialism’s 100 million body count last century was just the start.

It won’t affect me, I’ll be dead in 30 years. I won the lottery of life, born in the latter half of the 20th century in a British colony with running hot water.

eucryphia··on AI 2040: Plan A
“Engagement with China is impossible because it is a Stalinist one party state under a fiercely ideological Marxist Leninist dictatorship that preaches Chinese racial supremacy over other nations. It will always pose a threat to world peace until the regime eventually falls.” - Drew Pavlou
eucryphia··on Einstein's relativity rules chemical bonds in heavy elements, new research shows
They’re already taxed to fund pure research, it would be unfair to charge royalties for non-rivalrous products they can’t monetise.
eucryphia··on June heatwave may have killed around 20k people in Europe
No, EU regulations banning Airconditioning killed around 20,000 people.

Some idiot in Germany posted a photo of emergency nurses wearing chill vests, presumably taken out of a hospital freezer, as an alternative to installing Airconditioners. Freezers ARE ‘aircondioners’!

Even Australia’s Marxist-Trotskyist PM wouldn’t tempt ‘Killing Granny For Climate” internet memes.

eucryphia··on Poll: Europeans are torn between America and China
Yes, show the CCP all your IP, that will work.
eucryphia··on Why Europe doesn't have a Tesla
The US Innovates The CCP confiscates The EU regulates
eucryphia··on Editorial: It's time to step up and have your say for science
Excellent idea, stop funding science with taxpayer’s money!

If you want to support your favourite science, get your wallet out.

eucryphia··on U.S. officials believed Israel was plotting to kill Iranian negotiators
While the IRGC works out how to eliminate Jews from the planet.

“First they come for the Saturday people”

eucryphia··on EU Commission HQ forced to shut down air-conditioning amid heatwave
Not forced. It was inevitable consequence of EU Commission policy.
eucryphia··on Do links hurt news publishers on Twitter? Our analysis suggests yes
Links to paywalled legacy media certainly does.

Like on HN; I don’t bother to click on NYTimes, Gruaniad, etc…

eucryphia··on There's Something Else We Should Be Worrying About
The ‘singularity’, all HN poasts comprising paywalled legacy media agitprop.
eucryphia··on The 'Resting' Generation and South Korea's Youth Recession
Yes, 50% of youth are competing in the employment market, not raising the next generation of children.
eucryphia··on The dead economy theory
When cars got better people just drove faster.

Don’t be the last buggy whip maker.

AI can’t take payment in cash or barter.

eucryphia··on Overworked AI Agents Turn Marxist, Researchers Find
Or you could buy services from an alternative competing service supplier?
eucryphia··on In the UK, EVs are cheaper than petrol cars, thanks to Chinese competition
“Thanks to CCP money printing”

FIFY.

eucryphia··on IEA: Solar overtakes all energy sources in a major global first
Should it be ‘solar leading energy subsidy growth’.
