You could save way more than 1 life with $100M. Malaria nets save on average one life for every $3k donated. Child deworming doesn’t save a life per se, but you can stop a child from being permanently disabled for ~$500.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•I've finally understood what my beef with AI is
5·4 months agoTo play devils advocate, no one is forcing you to use AI for the things in life you want to do for fun. AI is a tool used to reduce the need for labor. You can still do your crosswords by hand, but let the machine do the ones you don’t want to do.

Blue States shouldn’t have to be held back because Red States are too busy fighting culture wars to tackle actual problems.

News@lemmy.world•Democrats Introduce Bill To More Than Triple The Minimum Wage
41·4 months agoJust do it on a per-State level. That way blue states can push their minimum wage up without having to worry about pandering to red states. There is a reason we are a federation if States.
There are no ethnic Indians like there are ethnic Germans. They can be Punjabi, Baloch, Sindhi, etc.

That’s really only Western religions whose job is to answer purpose and providea guide for eternal paradise. That relives the anxiety of why am I here and what’s next.
Eastern religions in general have the end goal as enlightenment rather than something external like a Heaven or Hell. That is more of an acceptance of the anxiety and suffering rather than an abuse of it.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•The Web Scraping Consent Model Was Always Broken. AI Just Made It Obvious.
1·5 months agoI am seeing from these comments that my proposed solution was pretty naïve. I intended this blog post to be a sort of thought experiment to challenge assumptions made about the web pre-AI rather than my thought up technical solution to be the main focus.
I might go back and re-write some of this post to gear the focus more towards my main points of the social contract between bot and human shifting (especially with copyleft/ShareAlike), the web becoming less “open”, how this is not a new idea since the DMCA already considers standards for automated access, etc.

News@lemmy.world•Gay Muslim influencer hosts inclusive Ramadan meal and calls for acceptance across faiths
13·5 months agoThat is such a myopic view of religion. Not everyone who is a Muslim “maintains inequality” and “is barbaric”. I am not a Muslim myself, but there are many Sufi saints whose poetry I read as I find their philosophy and interpretation of Islam to be very eye-opening. Any religion can be used as a means of love or hate.

News@lemmy.world•Gay Muslim influencer hosts inclusive Ramadan meal and calls for acceptance across faiths
3·5 months agoThis will be solved as class conflicts are solved. When people are not in a survivalist mindset, they can focus on the spirituality and philosophy aspects of religion rather than the rules and fundamentalism.
Look at how the Islamic State functions in the UAE vs Afghanistan for example. The problem isn’t an “uncivilized Islam”. Almost all problems in society can be boiled down to class struggles.
