  • I don't think anyone needs to worry about "missing it" when AI becomes conscious. Given the rate of acceleration of computer technology, we'll have just a few years between the first general intelligence AI, something that equals in intelligence to a human and a superintelligence many times "smarter" than any human in history.

    But how far away are we from that point? I couldn't guess. 2 years? 200 years?

  • That's inaccurate. Hell the government hates strikes so much, some states have passed legislation making collective bargaining, and strikes illegal. When a government tries to tell you that doing something reasonable is wrong, and in fact illegal, that means it's working.

  • I was confused by this too, but I might have figured it out.

    That was carpet bombing with strategic boomers at high altitude.

    This is a tactical air strike, delivered by strike fighters, at lower altitude with more precession for each munition.

    So this wasn't in any way the largest bombing, just the largest air strike. In short, this is the biggest because pedantics.

  • It's pretty clear what he wants. He wants WW3.

    1. He wants to consolidate manufacturing to make the US more self sufficient. The tariffs are simply a tool to designed to encourage local manufacturing.
    2. He wants to start dominating smaller countries just like Russia and China. As well as annexing neighbors. He wants to do what Hitler couldn't. He wants to use the most powerful military in the world.

    If he wants to go to war, then he's probably going about things the right way. Historically, being reliant on other countries for your supply chain can be a huge liability in war. For example, we were in danger of losing WW2 because of a lack of access to rubber. We need it for boots and tires, and we got it all from South East Asia, our access to rubber was completely cut off by Japan, it was a huge problem until we developed synthetic (plastic) rubber. We literally wouldn't have been able to put boots on the ground or vehicles on the road.

    If we were to end up in a conflict with China for instance, we would lose access to a lot of high tech manufacturing, we suddenly wouldn't be able to make new computers. That could be bad.

    Anyway, the signs are all here, Hitler V2 wants to mobilize soon.

  • I never understood its usecase.

    I used to use it when I was browsing the web at work. If I was reading something at the end of the day, or if it was something I didn't want to read at work, I'd give it a pocket bookmark. Then I could pull out my phone and finish right where I left off during my train commute.
