Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice?

    That's what I found. I thought people were faking because I was cynical. Then I met healthy people and realized it's actually ok to care and I was choosing not to care instead of choosing to care. Do I care all the time, absolutely not. But I'm getting better. I find I enjoy listening to people who are healthy have these conversations while looking at them without the cynicism.

    I started to realize the small talk that a lot of people online complain about is a choice.

    No it won't. Media already laid the groundwork for people to hate on AI. Now they will keep focus on areas where when you read it we all come to the same common sense legislation solution. Then will come a bill to strip us of more things that made the internet awesome and we will cheer. Web scrapping and data sharing can fuck off. Pirates sent to North Korean prison camps. Sharing accounts with family, you're flagged for an audit. Nintendo modders, more like criminals.

    So there's trolling which is just being a dick. Culture jamming is more about sending a message by using a lot of weird social behaviour and culture norms to throw a wrench into the mix. Sacha Baron Cohen did a bit of it more satirized. But the kings were "yes men saved the world"

    I don't think it's the same at all. Building code issue the same as building physical vehicle parts. All it'll mean is that any company that uses strictly AI will be beat by a company using AI plus developers because the developers will just add AI as another tool in their toolbox to develop code.

    Examples of what? Marketing teams? Check out a company called bent pixels.

    To see it in action, check out r/marvel.

    As far as culture jamming it goes, I don't have many because it gets your account banned pretty fast.

    What's your favorite Iron Man scene from any of the Marvel Movies?

    Fun thing to do is when you realize 99% of the internet is just advertising teams working for these rich fucking A hole's, is you make them work for their money but posting things that PR companies would hate. Just culture jam the hell out of the dead internet. Its the only way to be. Its what makes places like r/joerogan and r/thefighterandthekid so much fun.

    A lot of people spent many many nights wasting away at learning some niche arcane knowledge and now are freaking out that a kid out of college can do what they can with a cool new machine. Maybe not fully what they do but 70% there and that makes them so hateful. They'll pull out all these articles and studies but they're just afraid to face the reality that their time and life was wasted and how unfair life can be

    Men losing their mind
    Why limit immigration?

    No unfortunately. There is plenty of evidence of immigrants building their own justice systems and authorities under the radar of their new countries because it goes against the freedoms and expectations.

    We shouldn't ignore that and not talk about it.

    This whole thread is a gem. So many amazing websites. It's inspired me to make a website and hopefully be a repo for all your websites like the old internet

    This is a pretty silly night for Joe and what looks like a pack of hyenas with check marks who think they're being rational but instead are coming off as a bunch of assholes. Hotez is a medical doctor and researcher. He shouldn't debate a lawyer about this topic. The lawyer should produce research and submit for peer review. This whole situation is backwards
