If someone doxxes someone and you share the doxx, I generally consider that doxxing too. Even if it has a lot of views. I think it takes a surprising amount to make a doxx known and sharing it helps that.

Furries seem very unobjectionable to me. Some people like to dress up and have sex as animals. Sorry why is that any of my concern? Is there some implication that they are gonna make me say they are animals? Cos I've known furries and they've never done that.

I wonder how many english teachers could write a successful blog.

I guess that the West should penalise websites which sell things which break US patents?

I don’t think a stake should ignore or mistreat the poor/mentally ill but I don't think they should incentivise them to stay poor/mentally ill either. I think the US is more the former and the UK is more the latter and tbh the UK seems worse.

maybe i could become a dominion streamer - build AI tools to improve my game - stream games and talk about my decisions

Gun rights create an equilibrium where assassinations are pretty easy. This is a tragedy, but to me it does seem like *the point*. Citizens can, at significant cost to themselves impinge lethal costs on the state. That's the point, right?

I know trans people who are a lot happier after transitioning. And even if they weren't, I think (after consideration, on their own dime) adults can change their bodies. And even if I didn't, I think all people should be able to work (and go to the loo) safely.

britian is running an interesting game in that it's reaping the whirlwind but has decided to keep sowing all the while

There is something sad and beautiful about someone becoming more themselves while enjoying my company less.

Prompt: Do I have ADHD or just huge amounts of shame? (I distract myself to avoid focusing on the shame/hard questions)

I'm writing about Community Notes and our AI note writer? What would you like to know?

Yudkowsky has a great track record with sharable writing (the sequences, HPMOR) and a pretty impressive comms operation, so I weakly defer to him on how he should write his book.

I think Starmer is a bit cowardly as world leader.

The Curve's speak list is pretty stacked. Props to them.

came to me in a dream

I weakly think the Democrats should tell these firms that they are gonna investigate and punish companies which cosy up to the president in these kind of corrupt(?) deals. grow a spine Skadden and Co!

My challenge to reform voters: Why will your party succeed where others have failed? How will they avoid the incentive traps of do nothing, build nothing, cater to old people? What theories are you going to test? Are you actually gonna test them?

I've found @monzo's trend line a really useful way to spend less. If I am a bit above trend, I treat myself. If I am on or below trend I don't. I I've tried several ways to budget and giving myself a fixed monthly amount and using a chart is the most successful so far.

This seems like pretty good policy.

I think many problems are due to thoughtlessness. People not prioritising their thinking and so giving less time to important words or decisions.

If faith in the Anglosphere was on the upswing, what might that look like?

Listening to @Shanemgillis' podcast and their friend has gone to Bible study and they discuss it and then Matt McCusker talks about how he wants to read the Bible. I found the whole thing pretty surprising from bro-y guys. Link: pca.st/episode/45a...

I'm no expert on Argentina, but I feel a bit for Milei. Manage a huge economic improvement and then people vote back in the policies that got the country in the mess in the first place.

The US tapped German phones for over a decade, including Angela Merkel for some of that time.

What if you could community note whole accounts. This account is a spammer, this account is often misleading.

My mother hates driving. And my dad is disabled and every journey requires him to put on artificial limbs. I remember watching The Wrong Trousers as a child and hoping they would one day exist. Both autonomous cars and humanoid robots promise large benefits to them.

Just found out that Love Is Blind doesn't involve blind people.

Looking into the meanings of words is an overrated way of understanding meaning compared to other things eg - looking at similar concepts in other disciplines - attempting to build a computer model of the concept - doing surveys about the concept

we could give clones human rights now, just in case someone makes one

😲AI COMMUNITY NOTE😲 Our bot has written its first proposed community note, one of the first anywhere in the world! People can now vote on it. Thanks to my teammate @tone_row_ x.com/Lennnnnnie/...

ahh that's because it wasn't an investment, it was an heirdrop

The prequels were bad in an interesting/novel way. The sequels were bad in a boring/played-out way.

I generally think this was a dubious move of Taylor (and anyone else). They were given certain terms, this seems clearly against the spirit of those terms. x.com/PopCrave/st...

Congratulations!

Interesting watch time graph. Most listeners listen for long periods

This is some JK Rowling level naming

I worry that I'm building a prior that if I don't know a number, it's 10^11 (Most human values are between 10^1 and 10^80 so it's sort of a log normal on that? maybe??)

Steve Jobs made poor decisions around his cancer diagnosis.

In general I think almost all subtweeting is bad (except perhaps oblique references to crime/harassment). If I want to say something, I try and say it directly or not at all. No tweets, no song lyrics, no blogs and certainly no poetry.

I like pol.is but I still mainly hear about the Taiwan case study which is like a decade old now, right? Seems like a bearish sign

a doctor talking to the family of the woman who swallowed a fly "I'm sorry, she's got that dog in her"

the more things change, the more they stay the same

One of the things I find moving about Schindler is that an ambiguous figure. A Nazi, many failed businesses. Not a paragon of virtue, perhaps instead a man who does what is right because he can't find it in himself to do otherwise. I find this an easier role model sometimes.

Why can't autonomous car companies just get insurance to be able to run in new cities? Why does it take months? Surely Tesla could be told that if they kill someone it's a $1 billion fine, if they act without regulation?
