People who hire writers, don't write their own words. You can say that human connection is a crucial part of the writing process. But I just honestly don't think that's true for the vast majority of things we write. But also, eventually AI will be indistinguishable, If not better, than a human writer.

When we hit AGI, if we can continue to keep open source models, it will truly take the power of the rich and put it in the hands of the common person. The reason the rich are so powerful is they can pay other people to do things. Most people only have the power to do what they can physically do in the world, But the rich can multiply that effort by however many people they can afford.

Artists and performers need the freedom to be able to chase viable opportunities that excite them. You're watching them for their passion after all. If they get paid better to do it, great. This is their job, after all.

And of those, Smite is the only real comparison.

Yeah, I actually think about this. People recognize that time is a dimension of our reality, but ask: why does it only move forward? But wat if it doesn't? What if we go backwards and forwards often? But our memories are "unmade" when moving backwards and "remade" when moving forwards. We simply can only perceive the forward direction.

Is it just me, or is it surreal to read the headline "rare unsuccessful landing" when referring to a freaking rocket booster?

Thank you, this is so interesting. It really highlights how efficient these things are!

What if they're an electrician/plumber/repair man that needs a full kit of equipment and drives all over town. A contractor building a house transporting materials. A school/church/daycare transporting kids that doesn't want to have them loose on public transport. Garbage man. Emergency services. Food delivery. Etc

Or if anyone's job or hobby requires transporting more than can be carried on a bike trailer. Anyone living rurally. Anyone famous. People with mental conditions exacerbated by being enclosed with strangers. All that being said, I'd love to see a shift towards it being more popular.

Well, also this is nothing new, unfortunately. See Lolis. Or maybe don't...

There are a lot of things that "Western" medicine took from other cultures and then turn around and brand them pseudoscience barbarians for the remainder that didn't work. Like a lot of modern concepts of psychology from India. Medicines from indigenous Americans . Etc.

Also worth noting that the remaining knowledge base was deemed "pseudoscience" by the scientific community of yesteryear and a lot has changed. I'm not promoting unproven potentially dangerous alternative medicines. But I am saying it's worth re reviewing them from time to time. The Mayans had a very modern understanding of astronomy, for example.

Yeah the thing that is so hard is that none of the individual actions feel successful. But overtime they pay off. You have to build a guest house for happiness and keep it clean. So the next time he shows up, maybe he'll stay awhile.
