Assuming this message is in good faith, I appreciate your concern for my mental health.
I appear to have attracted the trolls, which is ok. That happens when you stand up to them. I don't tolerate bullies going ignored. I'm serious, but not as upset as you may be concerned.
And i believe that so much that I don't even consider graceful shutdown in design. Components should be able to safely (and even frequently) hard-crash and so long as a critical percentage of the system is WAI then it shouldn't meaningfully impact the overall system.
The only way to make sure a system can handle components hard crashing, is if hard crashing is a normal thing that happens all the time.
Honestly is is just like Insurance. You understand the value of things you are protecting (and simple compliance has a value to you in penalties and liabilities avoided) and make sure it costs more than that to break into your system.
At a corporate level, it is contractually almost identical to insurance, with the product being sold liability for that security, not the security itself.
Hey, make an artificial intelligent entity significantly more capable than any individual human, then be surprised you have a goal misalignment with your superagent.
We gave AI legal personhood in the 1800s and we were doomed from there
As an immunocompromised person who lost measles resistance, this is terrifying.
Vaccines don't only protect you.
I went on an immunosuppressant during covid, i was suposed to re-up MMR beforehand, but we had a major nationwide vaccine shortage at the time (all plants re-tasked to produce covid vaccines) so i couldn't. This doesn't seem a fun way to die. I guess I just mask up and hope.
Helium? Finite supply that is only going down until we get off planet.
It seems like the actual value of gold is that it is useless, and thus not used up, and all the easy gold is extracted. We could just use numbers instead.
With the current communication capacity, "transport" isn't horribly relevant. Free exchange of any currency backing substance would be as bad as bitcoin for fraud. So why bother moving it? Oil changes owners all the time without going anywhere.
If you are trying to pin a currency to a standard, gold isn't great. Its value is almost entirely speculative and it lacks meaninful intrinsic value at this point. If you demand to leave fiat currency, an aluminum or steel standard might make more sense. Rare earth metals, or even just petroleum would be my proposal. Maybe someday we will have a duterium pinned currency.
It gets complicated because we are getting to the point where using signal is itself being seen as probably cause for investigation: https://kmlawfirm.com/2023/02/28/its-not-what-you-say-its-ho... so I encourage everybody who doesn't need such security to use signal anyways, if only to add protection to the vulnerable.
Right, but did they? It being easy doesn't mean data scientists moving fast and breaking things bothered while they were already doing something illegal.

They hide the fun stuff at the bottom. Solar and wind don't count!
If it turns out the universe is holographic, then you have the same bound. This might just be enforment of the holographic principle...
