I learned a while back that arguing with someone is less about convincing that specific person, and more about convincing the bystanders who read/hear the argument.

It’s actually made it less frustrating for me to engage with people online. The person I’m taking to I know will never change their mind, but someone else might that I don’t know about.

If platforming universal healthcare and economic change is conservative then sign me the duck up as a staunch conservative. People are attacking him for having a business but that doesn’t make him the enemy. Plenty of good solid people have a business and pump the money back into their employees and community. It’s the billionaires, the ultra wealthy who think they can play god that are the problem.

I swear, “progressives” can be the most backwards people and their own worst enemy all in the name of ideological purity.

Honestly this. Their cpus melting down over the past couple years and their refusal to even acknowledge it hurt their image more than any potential backdoor could.

I’ve read that they’ve rechalked it more than once and are going to repaint it

It’s absolutely possible if you’re abusing it recreationally, especially if you start mixing it with who knows what else. The biggest risk is respiratory system just shutting off.

That’s just an OD though, long term abuse like it’s suspected by many that Musk is doing has a whole host of nasty symptoms that you can look up yourself.

I feel like we could find ways and tools to help in that situation without stealing the entirety of human knowledge, boiling our planet, and spending a small nation’s GDP. Like better code library discovery or a better mentor environment amongst coders.

I’ve also seen plenty of people get pointed in the exact wrong way to do things by leaning on generative AI and then have to spend even more time getting back on track.

Feasible? Only time will tell. Possible? Caltech did it two years ago. Look up MAPLE. Wireless energy transfer to/from space was achieved.

He said today he plans to wait until it’s fully out and binge read 🙌🏼

This is the second time I’ve seen Bobiverse mentioned. I might actually have to give it a go.

Unless you’re like my friend who read it with me, in which case you’ll finish it. Love it. And then mope about because you can’t find any books quite like it and is even less likely to pick up a book now because it’s not The Expanse.

Is there a specific format you want it in at the end? That’s a relatively easy python script and would probably produce a clearer timeline than Excel if all you want is an image or something at the end.
