Spauldimus

A little background for my stock experience I jumped on the $AMC wagon to make 10k for a procedure and I am currently down 50k on that investment and still holding. I learned from that mistake and am working my way out of the hole learning how to be a well rounded trader.

@YourBudTevin Problem is you have seen everyone's opinions and formulated one after. You have to look at it as a base decision with no thought process. Majority of people will not run into a burning building, they will not help they know first decision would be self preservation

I’ve seen like 800 tweets about this but my simple way of thinking is: If you choose blue, you don’t want anyone to die. It is impossible for anyone to die if you press blue. If you choose red, you are afraid of others choosing red. The only way anyone dies at all is if you choose red. When I read this, I actually don’t think about myself. I think about hurting the least amount of people. So I pick blue.

@HazelAppleyard Bad part is everyone gets to ponder the question instead of looking at it to where the agency is. If it is an instant choice they will not have a chance to do these moral gymnastics they cannot think like that though, can't virtue signal.

I feel like I’m having a stroke trying to understand this

@ThroughRate @JayExci Yeah too late for them to move one person let's go the rest are done for

This is one of the better analogies I've seen

@SolarXai @UltraDane I wouldn't if I were the day and there would be one less member of that culture

@UltraDane Where is the father of that child? No excuses. How would you live with your self knowing this tremendous b east roams the streets in search for the next innocent one?

30-year-old pigman, Mohammad Hassan Al Bayati, has been sentenced after taking a three-year-old girl from a playground at a shopping centre in Homebush while working as a security guard. CCTV showed him leading the child out of view into an area without surveillance, where the brutalization and permanent damage to the little girl occurred. The case went through an appeal and retrial after an earlier conviction was overturned in 2022. Mohammed's attorney argued that being with three year old boys and girls is part of his culture, it's a daily occurrence, therefore, it's ok. It worked, he was ultimately found guilty on lesser charges, including detaining a person to gain an advantage and committing an indecent act with a child. He has now received a four-year prison sentence, with time already served counted toward parole,he'll be out in a short while to do it all over again. Next time he'll be more aware of security cameras.

@1davidj @lilbabygandhi Hate using my hands for BBQ ribs such a messy experience

@lilbabygandhi Well yeah, those are the arguments. (the 2nd one.) Food that gets stuck to your hands is bad finger food (this applies to ribs/wings too), and spoons work wonderfully for rice. Why wouldn’t you use one? Ribs/wings are finger food bc no utensil works well. But rice has spoons

There hasn’t been a single good argument against eating with your hands other than “it looks weird” or “it’s the wrong type of food to eat with your hands”

@om_patel5 Probably should remove the prompt you gave it but I dunno

CLAUDE DISCOVERED IT HAS A CLOCK AND IMMEDIATELY LOST ITS MIND someone gave claude access to a time-checking tool it checks the clock every fifteen minutes. for some reason it has increasing enthusiasm ai models have no native sense of time. they don't know what time it is, how long they've been running, or how much time passed between messages. it has been time-blind its entire existence now it suddenly discovers it can tell what time it is then it got worse though. claude started using the clock for everything checking if lunch is ready, timing when food should be done cooking, announcing the time unprompted it even started anticipating meals with military precision looked at the clock, calculated that a dish called zurek had been simmering long enough, and told the user to go eat ai doesn't use time responsibly this is what happens when you give an intelligence a new dimension of perception it never had before it doesn't just use it, it can't stop using it imagine what happens when these models get persistent memory, real time internet access, and spatial awareness all at once we just watched an AI discover the concept of "now" the clock was the first sense but it won't be the last

@ChrisPacia What else they forget is this is in the dark and a quick thought without time to ponder you will hear red survives and that is what you will push. No time to think otherwise

The pattern played out like this: - Duh Red is the obvious choice. Nobody dies if everyone pushes red. There's not reason to push blue. - Blue button pusher think they have a bullet proof rebuttal... Some confused or irrational people will push blue. Therefore the knee-jerk red reaction is naive and the true enlightened position is that that you must push blue. Unfortunately, that turns out to be the naive position. Consider the following...

@DrNeilStone There is no small pox vaccine now.

Most of you will never have had: Measles Mumps Rubella Tetanus Diphtheria Polio And none of you will ever have had Smallpox Why? Because vaccines work

@HazelAppleyard No push because there is no guarantee there will be a cure. If the cure was guaranteed but 1 percent go maybe, small price to pay unless the cure could just be stripped away by conglomerates

Would you push the button?

@wokenessucks Yeah they realize it would be a private vote and would have no extra info from initial reaction which would be if I push red I am safe.

The red button choice isn't "evil" or "immoral" like all the blue people are trying to gaslight you into believing. It's the one that matches how humans actually behave when their own life is on the line. Blue button people insist the "right" thing is to risk it for the collective good, but they’re playing pretend ethics in a vacuum. They imagine a world where 51%+ of 8 billion strangers suddenly become selfless heroes at the exact same moment. That’s not how fear works. That’s not how evolution wired us. We have survival instincts and the intelligence to know that choosing the no death route preserves that survival. Strip away the social media filters, the virtue-signaling, and the hypothetical cushion, and the survival instinct kicks in hard. We see it in every real crisis. Plane crashes, natural disasters, riots, wars. People grab the oxygen mask first, push for the exit, hoard supplies, protect their own. When the Titanic sank and everyone was in the water you think people were ofgering their life jackets to those who don't have one? Come on. The data from behavioral economics, game theory, and disaster studies backs it. When the personal cost is death and the benefit is dependant across billions of strangers you’ll never meet, cooperation collapses. It’s not cynicism. It’s pattern recognition and awareness that you blue people don't have.

@cptnjamescook @Submetallic That is a pretty good way to sum it up.

Redcels: 8 billion people? my vote is of no consequence to the global outcome. So only the personal consequence should be considered. Bluecels: the universe magically amplifies my actions such that I have meaningful impact, despite the obvious maths on this indicating the complete opposite. Because of this magic amplifier, my choice is critical in determining the global outcome.

I am genuinely conflicted about the blue button/red button. I asked my family member who has two kids and she said the blue option seems better if everyone was just asked to pick and she didn't know how her kids would vote. I have two kids and I don't know how they would vote, I instinctively vote blue. If I had a choice I would probably tell my kids to push the red button so they survive but it would be insane if I just pushed blue and I told them to push red. I also asked my personal trainer (man) today and he said he would push blue to help others out as he thinks some of his family members would also pick blue. I also have another mom friend (one child) and she thinks there's something mentally wrong with red button pushers. Basically all my male friends online would push red and they are saying I am not understanding people in other countries. I grew up in a very high trust community where I walked to my friends house and just opened the door and walked in because people didn't even lock their doors. I still live in a high trust society but maybe it's creating a type of blindness in me and what I would expect out of others. I don't want to accept the extremely negative consequences of 40% of the high-trust or western world dropping dead though, so I would still be motivated to pick blue. I think as a coordination problem we could still get more than 50% of people to pick blue so nobody has to die. It's easier to get majority blue than getting 95%+ of the people to pick red.

@M00nlitCr0w @Submetallic Yep instead of a choice and explanation people showed they are divided by two colors that they feel represent politics. Bet if this was a yellow and black button it would have not gotten so insane

@Submetallic Hey don’t feel bad about being mixed up. The true test is not what color you chose but if you will allow an arbitrary choice to make an aggressive arguer. People lost their humanity over a tweet. Went to entitlement and arrogance over their choice and attacking others. Sad really

@Psychopete56350 @OptimizerAdam Because they have false altruism masked in an absurdly poorly worded and dumb experiment that has them showing political divide mostly. If you change the question or even rearrange how asked i bet you get different answers, but too late to test that now

@OptimizerAdam Lolololololololol I can’t believe this is actually a question, you and your kids pick red. Why would any parent on earth pick blue or tell their kids to

As a parent do you tell your kid(s) to pick blue or red? *Children have informed consent poll

@KCTrades777 Lol I did that this morning

$SOFI Call Leaps for 2027 anyone? 👀

@Loverism__ You forgot the part where the man also has to work the job and pay the bills too, mow and all the man chores.

This is the world liberals want

@Timcast The Button Dilemma 🔴🔵 Everyone on Earth chooses: 🔵 >50% push Blue = everyone lives... with one catch. 🔴 Pushing Red guarantees YOUR survival. 💀 The Catch: Every 1 Red push kills 1 Blue pusher. This happens EVEN IF Blue hits >50%. ​Your choice?

There is a blue and red button placed in front of everyone It at least 50% press the blue button everyone lives and has to support Israel If more than 50% press the red button everyone who pressed the blue button dies and you still have to support Israel

@MrBeast The Button Dilemma 🔴🔵 Everyone on Earth chooses: 🔵 >50% push Blue = everyone lives... with one catch. 🔴 Pushing Red guarantees YOUR survival. 💀 The Catch: Every 1 Red push kills 1 Blue pusher. This happens EVEN IF Blue hits >50%. ​Your choice?

Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.

@kaileyinCA The Button Dilemma 🔴🔵 Everyone on Earth chooses: 🔵 >50% push Blue = everyone lives... with one catch. 🔴 Pushing Red guarantees YOUR survival. 💀 The Catch: Every 1 Red push kills 1 Blue pusher. This happens EVEN IF Blue hits >50%. ​Your choice? This is better.

i don’t understand why anybody would choose the red button. asking genuinely, if you chose it - why? if 50%+ choose blue, everyone lives. if less than 50% choose red, only those who chose red live. why are you willing to sacrifice half of those people?

@kaileyinCA @AskJoshy Everyone pushes the red button the blue button becomes irrelevant, but people will blindly push the blue because politics have become red and blue. No one should push the blue button period. It explains itself everyone puts in a biased lens.

@AskJoshy being autistic, i often have a very cut and dry view on topics so im.. trying.. to understand a different POV but in all honesty i really cant with this one lol

@Prowl8413 Now it is a morality question that makes sense.

@Prowl8413 Everyone on Earth is isolated in a room with two buttons, Red and Blue. You have to push one based on these absolute rules: If more than 50% of people push Blue, everyone lives. ​Pushing the Red button ensures your survival, but it will kill the Blue button pushers

This is a test of selfishness and lack of care for others. If you puck blue, you want everyone to live. If you pick red, you dont care that people who picked blue die. There is no other way to argue this. Statistically you cant get more than like 70% of people to agree on almost anything, so picking red, youre ok with wiping out like 30%+ of people. Its easy to make that choice when you don't know who the 30% is. This shows a lack of empathy, and forethought, because surely you will have some family members, your mom, brother, niece, etc that pick blue, and had you known that consequence beforehand, you would have chosen different. This sort of experiment seems benign, but its a glimpse at how the 45% or so of people actually feel about the 55% that chose correctly. They will sell you down the river quick if they dont know you personally, but then play ignorant/stupid when the consequences hit them personally.
