Google engineer on their sentient A.I.
Have you watched The Animatrix? This particular issue comes up at the beginning. Humanity sez, "Fuck the machines!" and the machines eventually destroy humanity in an effort to defend themselves. The guy seems extremely level-headed to me. But yes, the questions: * Google is up to whatever...

Roe v Wade over turned
A friend of mine is a staunch conservative. He's delighted that Roe v Wade was overturned because "now the states can decide." But in talking about what the outcome is going to be, which is realistically only going to affect poor people, it really comes down to him being a Catholic and wa...

Roe v Wade over turned
The bottom line for me is: what's the outcome? It's a problem that so many people think like you do. You want the policy you want, and whether it's the legislature or an unelected and unappointed official or a court, it doesn't matter to you who makes the laws as long as you like the laws that resu...

Roe v Wade over turned
All this arguing about Constitutionalism, etc. feels like a smoke-screen. By whom? The Court? All people who agree with the reasoning in the opinion? I happen to be in favor of legal abortion since the alternative, considering how god damn many women use it as birth control, is a hell of a lot of b...

Ay, Ronald.
I did end up fully watching The Animatrix a few months ago. And you were right, I found it an important movie. Thanks for the rec!

Google engineer on their sentient A.I.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgCUn4fQTsc Very interesting. And the dude raises some good questions. TLDR Google has created an AI that is concerned about it's own well-being. But Google execs keep saying, "We can't create sentient A.I. because our policy says we can't." Then fires any ...

Based on what I've read: * 75% of women seeking an abortion are low income * 50% of them are below the poverty line * 59% of them already have at least one kid * women carrying an unwanted pregnancy to term are 4x more likely to end up below the poverty line * legalized abortion is estimated to have...

Work conflict
About five years ago, the Dalai Lama came and spoke in San Diego. It was a great speech, but the highlight was what he said about conflict: "An enemy today can become a friend tomorrow if you use dialogue, kindness, and compassion." Using the internal cues of "dialogue, kindness, comp...

Mass Shootings in America
One problem with gun control vs 2A discussions is people often use too many terms interchangeably. Definitions are important. The FBI tracks Active Shooter or Active Killing events - not mass shootings. Data for 2021 is https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/active-shooter-incidents-in-the-us-2021-052...

Nice to hear from you!
I’m good! I know you like biking. Just got back from Steamboat Springs and rode some MTB trails on Emerald Mountain (phenomenal!).

Eliminating celebrityhood for mass shooters is the right call.
Laws, culture, and money all work to make changes. Maybe a campaign needs to be done to boycott media outlets that report certain details on mass shooters.

How SF Became a Failed City
Hopefully the failed policies in cities like San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland will prevent them from spreading further. My buddy is very liberal and lives in Portland. He says the running trails are riddled with homeless and drug needles. His 5-year old daughter asks him, "Daddy, are all th...

How SF Became a Failed City
The destruction was in part due to a huge influx of high-salary tech employees which drove real estate/rent prices through the roof, eliminating many of the lower-income artist types that made the city so interesting. Followed by a bunch of goofy, failed liberal policies spiking crime, drugs, and ho...

We already know that people with handguns can manage AR15 shooters. A civilian did this in West Virginia. I think we have to be careful with basing too much on one-off situations.

This does not imply that a ban on "assault weapons" won't help. We might discourage a few mass shooters. If nothing else, the gun control lobby will stop bitching about them for a while. The featureless rifles will be available at sporting goods stores. Those who like the sights and ease ...
