i think that the existence of the disease is more of a maguffin than the point that the solution was achieved without section 31… the “problem” could have been any number of unrelated things (eg some spacial anomaly threatening the founders for some reason, etc) and the fact that it’s s31 is more an interesting plot device to create other narratives around, rather than degrading the ultimate point

while all that is fairly true, competition usually leads to better outcomes across the board. i think that alternatives rather than replacements is the idea, and spreading those opportunities across the globe will probably be beneficial in the long-run

Democrats are just as bad fascist as republicans, but people want to say one is the lesser evil?

Where was you lesser evil while the corrupt supreme court was bought and paidfor?

not doing that

Where was your less evil for the last 4 years on abortion right

not doing that

imposing more legal limits on the president instead of less

not doing that

Democrats are just as bad fascist as republicans

soooooo not doing fascist things is “just as bad” as actively doing fascist things? is that what you’re saying?

if the experiment succeeded and they’re both selfless and humble that number should be 0

i agree, but there’s lots of waste in the world. this is just the way of things, and the best we can do is push for making things iteratively better over time - this is that… a wasteful use of money, but at least it’s pushing in the direction of open

considering their apparent inability to learn, if you manage to teach 1 humility you’d best not waste it: feed the whole billionaire to the next, and then repeat the process until all billionaires in the world are selfless and humble

us-american arrogance is very present on lemmy literally everywhere.

bsky is an upgrade from twitter, and has methods to allowe limited interoperability to the fediverse… the biggest hurdle to fediverse adoption at the moment is that you can’t leave fb/ig/twitter/etc without abandoning all your connections there with no ability to communicate cross platform. the choice to leave is dramatic… if everyone moves to bsky, that’s a far better proposition for eventual fediverse adoption because with things like bridges, the barrier to move to the fediverse is much lower - perhaps a slight inconvenience, rather than outright loss

slippery slope

must be nice to find it funny rather than be scared for your friends lives like the LGBT community is

wow equating Nazis with communists - now there’s a false equivalence

I think we would do well to turn down the temperature a bit and try to understand each other rather than throw around these big insulting words that clearly we don't really understand.

what a great way to turn down the temperature! being condescending… good work bud

perhaps take a look at the comment votes once in a while and do some self-reflection on your communication style, if not the correctness of your statements and either say: sorry, i’m clearly miscommunicating, or sorry you’re right

And we keep the government out of finding scientific truths for good reasons.

in australia we have the CSIRO, in the US there’s NASA and NSF, in europe there ESA and CERN and i’m sure there’s plenty more.

Also scientific trith is not absolute. No scientist worth his salt will say "x is true and y is false". They would say "we have strong evidence to support x and we have strong evidence that y is not the case under all tested circumstances."

true, however under claims that vaccines cause autism there should be labels stating that this is misinformation, if not straight up removed

Courts move slow and only in acvordance with the lae.

okay - i didn’t put this up as the way we should do it, i put this up as an example of how we already allow the government to arbitrate truth to some degree - being the judge in an adversarial process… the bar is “beyond reasonable doubt”, with processes for appeal etc

you ultimately need to grant the government the definition of what is true and what is not

you need to grant some entity the ability to run the process that arbitrates. this does not mean that there is an arbiter of truth; this means that there is a process that arbitrates truth, and that process can ensure independence; just like we can guarantee elections with proper process

you seem to think that this would be some arbiter of truth with no recourse, but we have courts that deal with defamation all the time, and the scientific method… these are all tools we use to, as a collective, come to conclusions about objective (or as realistically close to) truth as we can get

If you create an instrumemt that obligates fact checking, you have to give someone authority to define what are facts and what arent

yeah… and some things are just straight up facts… this is literally the perfect example of slippery slope

this is mostly an american take, and most of the rest of the world tends to disagree with this “free speech absolutism”

it’s the slippery slope fallacy

and then they use that info to perform a credit check to ensure you’re not a “risk” to let into the store

i mean, kinda… that’s how tools work: tools aren’t anything particularly special; they’re just the model replying in a way that the code running the model knows to ingest and perform an action with, rather than just replying to the user… so if the model for whatever reason messed that up, it could probably output tool calls

… and the “common sense” is for sure implemented with tools-like stuff

i’ve written bots that filter things for me, or change something to machine-readable formats

the most successful thing i’ve done is have a bot that parses a web page and figures out the date/time in standard format, gets a location if it’s listed in the description and geocodes it, and a few other fields to make an ical for pretty much any page

i think the important thing is that gen ai is good at low risk tasks that reduce but don’t eliminate human effort - changing something from having to do a bunch of data entry to skimming for correctness

email is not secure. proton is among the most reasonably secure compromises; there’s very little they could do to become more secure

that looks like a go template, so i’d wager it’s something server-side
