yeah no shit, any public detection method will be the focus of training until it doesn’t work.

they’re the same picture.

I wish my weird dreams where whimsical instead of deeply upsetting

I thought it was inspired by BeOS.

Let’s all love Lain.

there’s a 40/40 chance you’re in the 77%

did someone say pizza party?

Rojava or 1930s Spain

I mean it’s nice and all but we literally can’t keep up with the pace of extinctions.

And why is it always predators? Didn’t anyone watch Jurassic park?

ironically lower resolution than the original … but hey it’s in colour this time.

Same price

yep, that is textbook shrinkflation.

not something you see much recently because most things shrink and also increase the price now.

What are ya gonna do with those arms, hold an umbrella?

yeah, I noticed I just said magnets like other permanent magnets could be better or something …

Thanks for calling me on this.

I was talking about motors and Induction isn’t in fact explicitly better. I think they could be if we have no other choice but to throw research at them but for right now there have fairly equal trade offs.

The fact they where supplying foreign militaries in the first place is hilarious.

as far as magnets are concerned there are better designs out there that are not being pursued because neodymium is so much easier.

So much of the modern world is built on what is easiest not what could be better if we put in the least little bit of effort.

I’m announcing a 90 day pause on buying American products.

I did relate it back to money so you’re not wrong but I wasn’t really talking about our current incentive structure.

I believe we would reward these people with a cushion against risk no matter the underlying system because that’s what we value.

that’s not the sort of risk being mitigated by money.

it’s more that people in general are heavily loss averse so it’s beneficial to incentive people willing to risk loss.

progress is inherently risky. we incentive risk taking behaviour because most people don’t actually want to take risks but we do want progress,

the side effect is that any personal pleasure these people get from taking risks is severely dulled by monetary success so they need to keep going bigger until they get so big they’re risking the very foundations of their success.

lonely mess epidemic

I’m stealing this so hard

Stop talking shit about me.

I’m not.

Oh yeah? prove it.
