If you suppress the heavy conservatism bias that most people have and actually look at what's going on, then the reasonable conclusion is that yes, Messiah is coming.

I hope this point of view wins eventually. It's the only sensible one.

Proposing to jail people for doing http requests to publicly available resources on a hacker forum?

But you're also autocomplete (prediction engine) on steroids.

If your database isn't involved in your business logic then you're probably significantly underutilizing capabilities of modern databases.

I think people are rightfully concerned with the last AI disaster humanity has, not the first one.

I know it's an extreme example, but flat earthers to exist. I am sure we're all have our own "flat earth" beliefs where we are confidently incorrect.

I have the same exact problem with people. Being inaccurate is a feature, not a bug.

You severely overestimate the quality of care you would receive in a psychiatrist's office when thinking that lithium and lamotrigine wouldn't be prescribed for no reason. Prescription of pramipexole should have given it away.

I would have agreed with you before the mobilization happened. It's an incredibly risky gamble to make, could have sparked immediate massive civil unrest because in one way or another it touches every person living in Russia. Him going this far proves that Putin is all in, he wants to win whatever it takes

Currently the immutability of Bitcoin is its core value proposition. Once that's gone, it becomes just another another altcoin, so the community will fight against the move to PoS.

He is pointing out that it is in fact a ponzi and explaining the mechanism. There are no regulations against letting people trade this type of ponzi so his company isn't doing anything illegal. I think the problem here is that people outside crypto take it more seriously than insiders.

Crypto bros would forgo the middleman and get the 20% yield instead.

15-ish years ago, when I was twenty, I was foolish enough to see a psychiatrist. I walked away with a prescription for an SSRI, a typical antipsychotic, a mood stabilizer and some Xanax to take as needed.

What I really needed was my father not being dead when it mattered.

Read up on how the Russians fought in WW2. Russia has executed 153000 of their own soldiers, among other things. They defused mine fields by forcing penalized soldiers to walk through them. Nothing has changed.

You don't need to believe propaganda, just look at the map of the invasion and ask yourself how is it possible that a far superior military on paper is losing so badly.

This morning they defaced multiple Russian and Belorussian news agency websites, replaced their pages with an anti war message, I caught it live.

The biggest affected sites were https://www.onliner.by/ and https://tass.ru/

It's like oxygen. Is it bad because the invaders can also breathe it in?

Ukranian government is very much pro-crypto. https://www.kmu.gov.ua/en/news/parlament-uhvaliv-zakon-pro-v...
