We're living in a Silo.

Consider how difficult it is to change yourself, and now consider how foolish it is to believe that we should “change society” before we change ourselves. Michael Jackson said it better; I’m starting with the man in the mirror.

Man, being right too early feels exactly like being wrong.

@jamestalarico You can’t tax ingenuity out of existence and expect progress to stay. Don’t keep lying to people. If @elonmusk vanished tomorrow, his companies were liquidated and every asset was given to the poor there would be even more poverty. Wealth creation is not a zero-sum game.

Elon Musk is about to become the first trillionaire. The reason poverty exists in the wealthiest country on earth isn't because we can't feed the poor — it's because we can't satisfy the rich. We should tax trillionaires out of existence.

@elonmusk An inverse Dyson sphere. Interesting 🤔

A large solar-powered AI satellite constellation would be able to prevent global warming by making tiny adjustments in how much solar energy reached Earth

@elonmusk Help me build the first ever Universal Prosperity Engine. Here’s my proposal:

@SwitchRepairSho No expert will ever say The Manifester is science fiction. The most difficult techs for it to be a reality have already been invented.

3D printing Glowing Soap? Yes! Only at Timeplast.

One builds vision. The other builds a hard drive full of maybes.

If you compose your shot in your mind before you press the shutter, then the best camera is the one that stays out of your way; like a Leica M.

Same with photography. Some chase the decisive moment. Others hold the shutter for 3 seconds and “decide” later in Lightroom.

It’s like Everest: A real alpinist wants to climb it. The tourist wants a helicopter to drop them on the summit and call it achievement.

But if you depend on the camera to think for you, then yes, you’ll need all the AI, autofocus, and algorithmic hand-holding you can get.

@VoteUncleSmile It’s non toxic fyi.

@SuperSingular If I'm not glowing like a radioactive biohazard, im not buying

@bryan_johnson who I admire, posted this about his veganism. Here’s my response: If we ever reach a point where advanced AI judges humanity’s ethics, I think it would actually take issue with how easily we dismiss plant life, because eating meat is an evolutionary behavior. It’s not something humanity chose in a moral vacuum; it’s something nature programmed into our biology. So AI could see it as a natural vestige of survival, part of our evolutionary design. But what @bryan_johnson is doing now, is consciously deciding that animal life is more “worthy” than plant life. If the entire society were to do that then we would not be following biology anymore, we’d be making moral hierarchies, declaring that certain life forms deserve to die and others deserve protection, based solely on how similar they seem to us in awareness or pain response. From a non-animal, hyper-rational AI perspective, that looks dangerously inconsistent. Because once you start ranking life based on complexity or consciousness level, you’ve created the same logic that could be used against us. If we justify killing what we consider “less conscious” or “different in nature” (plant vs animal) then a superintelligent AI could easily and morally apply that same reasoning to humans, viewing us as the lesser, inefficient species to be optimized or removed. So ironically, the ideology that seems more “ethical” today, veganism as moral superiority, could logically backfire and appear to AI as a precedent for selective extermination. It teaches the logic of valuing some life forms over others, which is exactly the logic that could one day devalue us. We should love all life forms equally, from a unicellular plant organism to @elonmusk regardless of our evolutionary eating habits.

The Manifester explained.

It is so freeing to love something more than you love yourself.

@DerrickEvans4WV According to this whoever works at 65 is practically dead. Give me a break. Is Warren Buffet a cyborg then?

Wow. This study claims that for every year you work past the age of 55, you lose two years of your life expectancy 😳

@gator_gum @BGatesIsaPyscho Ideas are abundant. Theories are abundant. But execution and functional technologies are rare and trascendental. That’s what Elon accomplished. He brought these ideas into reality through functional applications which is extremely difficult to achieve.

@BGatesIsaPyscho He didn't invent Tesla nor Space X.

“I think Elon Musk is an idiot” “Why because he invented SpaceX & Tesla?” “People are waking up - they’ve been lied to the entire time” “You’re terrified because he’s allowed speech you can’t control” Incredible exchange - you can literally watch the Liberal Left malfunction in real time as they realise they’ve lost control of the narrative.
