Humanity has many solvable problems. Among the biggest are poor epistemics, and thinking that epistemic problems are unique to political enemies. EA, LW, ACX





@ELuttwak Only a moron or a liar can say that the issue with Iran/USA is because of Iran. Which is Luttwak?



Roughly speaking, for each 4 Russians we see killed in combat we see 1 Ukrainian. Sometimes it is 3 to 1, sometimes 5 to 1. Sometimes 1 to 1. But, on average, about 4 to 1.




Also, if you saw the methodology I used to calculate this loss ratio you would see how insanely favorable it is to Russians. Because I only counted videos I did personally, and the hugely disproportionate majority sometimes literally to the point of exclusivity of videos I personally do are russian videos. And even then the ukrainians kill more.


Fast forward a couple of years, the same guy now seems to think that the Ukrainian numbers for Russian casualties (including DPR/LPR) are accurate. x.com/Gerashchenko_e…




I truly do not understand people who are not in an utter panic about AI and what is coming for the entirety of humanity. Some huge majority of the population just seems to be like... meh this'll be fine, and look, I can make a cool video!
