@germanguy123 @MichaelButtonX Fun theory, but each of these civilizations developed unique crops over thousands of years. Atlantians or the equivalent wouldnโt make sense given the millennial time scales involved in domestication of crops.

@MichaelButtonX 1/2 I believe there was an earlier civilization, technologically highly advanced, that, much like the Europeans in recent centuries, circumnavigated the globe. It had a profound influence on all tribes, which would explain parallels in development. Then it disappeared.

We teach that agriculture 'began' in the Fertile Crescent.
But it also began independently in China, New Guinea, Mesoamerica, and the Andes - all at roughly the same time.
Why did everyone suddenly start farming at once, after 290,000 years of not doing so?

@germanguy123 @MichaelButtonX Hail Atlantis!

@missus_wormy @mcproxy197 Things did get better. We got way wealthier and healthier.

Compute shortage. Data center sentiment cratering. Global resource crunch. Still no killer consumer app. Capital drying up, financing going circular, nowhere left to run but public markets. Population sentiment in the toilet on the eve of a major election. Model prices climbing while Chinese open source closes the gap. The models supposedly approaching singularity haven't materially improved in six months.
And the tell: people are leaving hot AI labs like Thinking Machines for Meta. Meta isn't a genAI company. It's an RL factory for ad spend.
Capital, compute, sentiment, and competitive pressure all breaking the same direction at the same time. That's not a soft landing setup.

What is it with russians that they just canโt let their neighbors live in peace?! Itโs always war, war, war, stealing, raping and murdering century after century.

When the CEO of Verizon predicts AI & robotics could lead to 20%-30% unemployment within the next few years, we may want to take notice.
AI is the most transformative technology in human history. Weโre not prepared for it economically or socially. That must change. NOW.

the President of the United States attempted a coup last time he was in office and then he cruised back to nomination without a sweat and immediately pardoned all his conspirators
"the Republican party wants to destroy the Republic" is only barely an exaggeration
Dilan Esper@dilanesper
I know this is squishy and both-sidesy, and I am not going to convince any partisans with this, but there's a way to talk passionately about politics without portraying the other side as utter demons who aim to destroy the Republic, and I try to model it in my own commentary.

@DaireCarragher No, because the reflecting pool will no longer reflect. Itโll just be like a giant swimming pool.

As a non-American, this is just objectively going to be an improvement no?

I may be biased but I am going to say Britain for its countryside, history and beauty, when the sun is out I do not think anything beats it.
A lot of people never venture out of the big cities when visiting Britain which is a huge mistake

And when this attack on a British air base is confirmed to be Russians AGAIN, it'll be kept quiet for a year or more, preventing the public outrage sufficient to interfere with the ongoing ability for Russian oil tankers to freely traverse the English Chsnnel.

Major fire reported at RAF Fairford overnight, a British airbase hosting a sizeable forward-deployed contingent of USAF bombers for Iran strikes. The fire reportedly gutted a commissary building.

Bernie Sanders is a fucking bum
Sen. Bernie Sanders@SenSanders
Uncontrolled AI poses a severe danger to all of humanity. On Wednesday, I'll be hosting a discussion with leading AI scientists from the US and China about the need for international cooperation against this existential threat. This is an enormously important issue. Join us.
