@Tom3k_K @jareidz @waitbutwhy Think about it this way. A letal virus is going to be released all over the world. Blue button is a vote to don’t release the virus. Red button gives you immunity, but is a vote to release the virus. Of course 100% red gives everyone immunity, but >50% doesn’t release it at all.

@tuchi263 @jareidz @waitbutwhy Why would you need to convince someone to pick the option with 0 risk?

Everyone in the world has to take 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?

@FelineEntity No. Blue is what kills people. Blue is a willing, knowing opt-in to potentially die. You don't make that choice and tell those who made a different choice it's their fault you die. Don't be a retard. Own the consequences of your decisions.

This is a wonderful question btw. The logical answer is red. However, humans aren't perfectly logical creatures. So the empathetic answer is blue, because red WILL kill people. Will you stay logical and kill? Or will you stay empathetic and risk your life? It's a great conundrum.

@QiaochuYuan A letal virus will be released all over the world if most people want it. Blue button is a vote to don’t release the virus. Red button gives you immunity, but is a vote to release the virus. Of course 100% red gives everyone immunity, but >50% blue doesn’t release it at all

i completely missed this discourse the first time so lemme try. i pressed blue without thinking about it, my gut reaction was "blue is prosocial and red is antisocial," on reflection this still seems right to me galaxy-brain game theory arguments in favor of red are completely missing the point. as others have pointed out, empirically blue wins, and this is a test of theory of mind more than anything else. the actual outcome is determined by what everyone else who is not you actually does, not by what game theory says they should do a certain kind of nerd thinks game theory is just the "correct" framework for reasoning about this type of situation and that is absolutely not true either and can be questioned on intellectual grounds and not just vibes. among other things game theory assumes every participant is perfectly selfish and perfectly """rational""" (and that this is common knowledge among the participants). this is just totally false as a description of the actual world! multiple parents pointed out that parents have to remember that this test includes their children. and obviously the vast majority of people have never even heard of game theory but they do know what selfishness and selflessness are funnily enough there's LW stuff around exotic decision theories that's actually relevant here. one of them i would describe roughly as "when you make a decision you are choosing to live in a world where people like you make decisions like that" and i'd rather choose to live in a world where people like me are prosocial "blue is prosocial and red is antisocial" is also a self-fulfilling prophecy, the more people who believe it the more true it becomes. so believing it is partly a bet on how much other people believe it, partly an act of hyperstition to make it true. few

@dab_chick Only way everyone survives is 100%, OR more than 50% blue. Blue is the one. Red only saves you, and decreases blue %.

Fucking infuriating that this is even close. There’s no benefit to picking red! If you would defect in Prisoner’s Dilemma because you’re oh-so-rational, you should pick blue here!

@forallcurious Universe is full of life. We are just isolated like the sentinel island.

There are more stars than grains of sand on Earth. Astronomers estimate that there are around 10,000 stars for every grain of sand on Earth. Let that sink in!

@Tom3k_K @jareidz @waitbutwhy 100% red, and more than 50% blue are the scenarios with no death. If you choose red.. why do you care what everyone else chooses? You are going to survive. The thing is that a lot of people wil choose blue, so it is easier to convince more than 50% to vote blue, than 100% red

@tuchi263 @jareidz @waitbutwhy Okay but why do you care about 100% red? Why would you care about people who pick the option that has a chance of death with no reward when the option with no risk and no reward is right there?

@mykola It is easier to reach 50% blue, than 100% red. So answer is blue.

Ah this one again. To my dear rationalist friends who are so confused as to why anyone would press the blue button: I don't want anyone's blood on my hands. "But if everyone just presses red then everyone lives" yeah but that's also true for blue, plus no complicity in murder.

@jareidz @waitbutwhy No, answer is blue. It is easier to have a more than 50% blue, than 100% red. Unless you only care about yoursef. Think what a grandpa or grandma would vote, or a young kid. Choosing red kills all the blue.

@waitbutwhy The correct answer is always red If you press red, you always survive. Also, if everyone presses red, everyone survives. Those who didn’t realize this and pressed blue get culled

¿Y si si? @LuisSuarez9 📞

De corazón, Lucho. 🩵 #CopaMundialFIFA

Los giles que dicen que Suárez esto y aquello NO son hinchas de la selección, son hinchas de la moral. Luis Suárez en este momento es el mejor 9 uruguayo en actividad y el que piense lo contrario, que me argumente quién es mejor que Suárez en este momento y por qué. Luis DEBERÍA IR AL MUNDIAL, es una realidad.

@sandunga444 y además el más 'penalito' de todos, fue el que le dieron a Liverpool

Cuando los periodistas dicen que a Nacional le dieron un "penalito", lo que quieren decir es que reglamentariamente está bien cobrado, pero a ellos les hubiera gustado que no lo cobrara. Es así de sencillo.

@CuriosityonX Me

Aliens just landed and want to talk to ONE person to represent the humanity. Who are you sending?

@Raggiomoral Que lastima que nunca se pudo encontrar el Tomo 2 del libro de Enoc.. todavía

Sí lo han hecho, somos nosotros. Toda la raza humana huyó de Marte tras una guerra nuclear en arcas espaciales. 200 de nuestros antepasados marcianos llegaron a la Tierra encontrándose formas de vida precarias. Tecnologizaron a los Yamnaya y aparecen en el Libro de Enoc.

@PasionTricolor1 es penal, con la pierna y con el brazo

Luego de esta jugada Deportes Tolima tiene un tiro libre que fue gol… ❌No nos olvidemos de estas cosas aunque hayamos ganado eh?

@IngenieroSeed El dron se mueve a 108.100 km/h alrededor del sol..

A todos los ingenieros que me leen, tanto a los reales que tienen la carrera como a los que no la tienen pero se creen más que nosotros: ¿Sabríais dar la respuesta correcta?

@juan_no66160 @YesSirThatIsMe @engineers_feed Thought it through again and I was wrong. The plane can still move forward even if the wheels and belt move at equal and opposite speeds, so it will eventually take off (or just roll off the belt if it’s too short).

@YesSirThatIsMe @engineers_feed It's all air speed not wheel speed or ground speed. If they were pulling the tarp with a plane on it fast enough, of course it would take off. The example is not the same, since the conveyor is matching the wheel speed, which it technically irrelevant to the lift from air speed.

We should all get the same answer folks 💪🏼

@YesSirThatIsMe @engineers_feed Thought it through again. I was wrong. The plane can still move forward even if the wheels and belt move at equal and opposite speeds :)

@engineers_feed To the Nay-sayers. MythBusters actually tested this in real life with a small aircraft and a giant tarp pulled by a truck acting as the conveyor belt. The plane took off without a problem. Nay-sayers are in "car-mode", where the wheels do the "propelling". Planes are different.

@antipharmagirl @aakashgupta no, sounds like the guy in the post is saying nonsense.

@aakashgupta Wait so we “went to the moon” 50+ years ago with no issues or computers and now with modern technology we can’t figure it out?! Sounds like this is the first time humans orbited the moon.

Four humans are about to fall into a 10,000°C wall of plasma at 25,000 mph with a heat shield NASA knows is flawed. Tomorrow evening. Off the coast of San Diego. Orion hits the atmosphere at 36 times the speed of sound. The air can't move out of the way fast enough, so it compresses into a shockwave twice as hot as the surface of the Sun. The plasma ionizes the surrounding air and blocks all radio signals. For several minutes, the crew is falling faster than any humans have ever traveled inside a spacecraft, and nobody on the ground can talk to them. The heat shield is 186 blocks of a material called Avcoat glued to a titanium skeleton. It works by charring, melting, and disintegrating on purpose. The destruction of the outer layer is the cooling mechanism. There is no backup system. No redundancy. The heat shield works or the crew doesn't come home. The Artemis I heat shield came back with over 100 locations where chunks had ripped off. NASA spent two years figuring out why, concluded it was gas pressure building up inside the material during reentry, and decided not to replace the shield. They changed the flight path instead. Steeper angle, less time in the danger zone. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said publicly that this approach "is not the right way to do things long term." The capsule will slow from 25,000 mph to 17 mph in thirteen minutes. Parachutes don't even deploy until the last four. Everything before that is managed by a curved piece of titanium and glue entering air twice as hot as the Sun. Tomorrow at 5:07 PM Pacific, San Diego might hear a sonic boom. That sound is four people betting their lives on NASA's math being right.
