[ Flashbacks to "Pounded by the pound" ]

They do that voluntarily about 24 times a year at conventions.

Tried to crash my car into a bridge stanchion, chickened out, tore the mirror off.

They were still full on neolib free market types. Which is why I said right and righter wing.

We've not had a center or left party for decades and FPTP guarentees it.

since just 2008? We've had 40 years of right and righter wing politics destroying the country and making the infrastructure crumble.

I mean, its a good start, but it really should be coming from governmental policy.

Its tragic that the government of the UK is so ass-backwards that the enforcement jackboot of the government is the thing going "hey, wait, this feels wrong".

That would require the humans controlling the experiment to both be willing to input altruistic goals AND accept the consequences that get us there.

We can't even surrender a drop of individualism and accept that trains are the way we should travel non-trivial distances.

Until computers can be genuinely creative, and not emulate creativity, its not gonna happen. And when that happens, we're either getting the startrek luxury space communism, or a boot smashing our head into the kerb for eternity. No middle ground.

Less authoritarian pigs, more support workers.

Less shot dogs, more rehabilitation centers.

Less ex-military APCs, more rehab beds.

Not everything is about absolutes, everything has nuance, and to say what you've just said is to miss the wood for the trees.

Crimes of poverty, deprivation, desperation? Significantly less than currently.

But yes, there would still be plenty of white collar crime that we don't currently tackle either, and in some cases encourage by policy.

If heavy handed policing worked, it would have worked by now.

If the humans can't see the flaws and correct them now, what do you think the AI would learn from the training data?

the problem with the current model for building AI is training it based on existing policy and thought. Which means it'd just be what we have now but somehow hallucinate more contradictory policy.

Well ain't that the dumbest shit ever. Some of the worlds cleanest water being fed to a machine to hallucinate code that doesn't work while water scarcity starts to come home to roost.

no one will want to do that job anymore

Good.

I've never seen a crime deterred or solved by the cops. You know what prevents crime? Improved standards of living. Secure housing. Gainful employment. Future prospects.

They chose to make their career of enthusiastically enforcing these laws with extreme violence. They chose this. Fuck the police.

Are they using total loss water cooling or something? What in the actual fuck are they doing.

If you want to understand the lawns thing, try ordinary things video about lawns. And levvitt towns... And white flight... And racism.

Where is all this free real estate you're talking of.

why are they measuring solar farms in swimming pools
