Don't worry, when the market casinos start moving money toward making actual useful shit again you'll be able to go on the official state job posting site and see actual job postings. Still in market horseshit mode for the next little bit though. Might be a few months yet.

Super-lightweight custom drone does a thing on stage. The crowd's feeling is "it's magic, but in an investment vehicle way, not a driven vehicle kind of way, because that is clearly not what we're looking at," and yet that feeling never makes it to the part of the brain that connects big red dots.

Let's just say that sleight of hand in cons often gets an assist from grey-market pharma. Things are not much worse now than the 1970s in that regard, but evangelicals and other cultists are even more desperate for victory in spiritual warfare. They have no qualms with going the route of Bill Cosby.

The way it works is that the person is proven to be profoundly deaf (temporarily due to fuckery) who then "heals" (drug wears off). There are any number of grifts that work this way.

If it could be proven, it would turn out to be an elaborate con utilizing a designer drug that temporarily suppresses the temporal lobe.

Everything you've said is true except for innovation. Every "innovation" he claims ownership of was someone else. Musk's actual decisions are limited to obvious failures like the cyber truck.

The popularity of mental support tools like Schrodingus's Generative Parrot is down to the use of "legit" pharmaceuticals which induce brain fog: benzos, muscle relaxer, that kind of thing. Rich dummies use that shit in order to get through the day without having to consider what they do too much.

What? The part of the job that involves getting things close to right the first time rather than arguing with everyone about how the whole output of the AI should be dumped in the trash so it can be done properly from scratch? You know, the way the job became unneeded inefficient agonizing conflict?

A low-stakes society is a polite society. An armed society is a high-stakes society where only rich people who are surrounded by armed security are the only people allowed to talk shit. And complain about rudeness.

Fundie biblethumpers have become the most fawning cocksuckers in Rump's repertory theatre of cocksucker ("late stage") capitalism, for whatever it's worth. They are unmoored and joining Das Partei to save themselves from the grasping abyss. Too late for most every one of them.

Thought experiment: posit that a falsehood is true then ask if it is good. That's the level of logic these business school coders are capable of. It's misidentification of symbols all the way down.

There's nothing wrong with furries that isn't also wrong with any other demographic. Get over your weird insistence on having one group of people who are considered untouchable or unassailable. Untouchable is the other end of unassailable, it goes all the ways that any other axis goes.

I reject class narrative. That's always been categorical logic run amok. It's the logic of nazis and calvinists and people trying to argue rich trash out of existence.

We are the only existing artificial intelligences; education is artificial: built, learned, stored, retaught, literally the root of art and artifice. Maybe machines will join us, but that's not happening now. Right now is just rich kids who cheated on exams trying to kill knowledge they don't own.

people get their wires crossed with this but although science requires distance from an anthropocentric lens, it is itself a purely anthropocentric concept with an anthropic reference: it *means* human knowledge

Maybe instead of planting a flag somewhere in Math Space, math grads could instead work on engineering phds that work on applications. That won't be easy either, but it won't be done by LLMs.

The "AI can do math" thing is more test case iteration; what was CS/math phd work. The hope is to inspire investors to think that the machine is working out the math for reactionless drive and cold fusion. It isn't, it's filling out the spaces of obscure shit that grad students need for theses.

This has the stink of "let's troll Kim and Putin." Kind of like in a movie when a line reading makes no sense and you realize later that it was intentionally flubbed to confuse a studio exec.

It's worse than that. Those ships were (because square/cube issues) quite fast and actually very useful for shore bombardment and flag operations. AI is more like the nuclear-powered bomber or cold fusion: does not work, is perpetually 18 months away. Just look at the prospectus and give us money.

I think if they'd marketed it as it is, something between The Phoenician Scheme and a broadway satire of Blade Runner, it wouldn't have been released. As it is they got to release it and also stick it to the execs who would have said "Take the writeoff instead." It's actually a good and fun movie.

I don't know how you'd market this movie into a blockbuster; they maybe shouldn't have tried. It's very drama nerd oriented and if you get through the first half hour without being driven out in bafflement there's a little moment where it all falls apart and it's suddenly a much better movie.

(rewriting this post) Ok. That's about the only way Digger could go and be actually good. I mean, it's basically Birdman again, but with stakes and actual heart. I'll let you go see it to see if there's vampires or not. There might be vampires. Go see it.
