join the military, you get to starve on a rusting ship that repeatedly sails into and out of the range of enemy missiles in order to manipulate gambling websites where people bet on your death

It's great to see tailoring accommodate such extreme movement today. This level of tailoring was a bit more common in the past, as you can see in old films featuring Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly, but many modern suits will lift off the wearer's neck even when they're just walking.

Some context: 1. VRC is significantly more active in Japan. 2. The Japanese community at large does not view generative ai - including art - in a negative light the way the western community does. You can deal with that info as you like. Same reason Japanese game companies are heavily invested.

There just isn't a legitimate solution to this which doesn't result in thousands of people currently working in the Federal government going to prison for many years

This will make it nearly impossible to file habeas petitions, because attorneys won’t even know what federal district their client has been moved to to stage for their removal. Something like a third of all people in ICE custody. apnews.com/article/ice-...

DO NOT PET THE BAT! ANY BAT! THEY ARE CUTE ADORABLE FLUFF BALLS AND YOU DO NOT TOUCH THEM EVERRRRRRR. Same with caterpillars. Admire from a distance and leave those fluffernutters alone.

It's vastly more comforting to believe in an imminent robot apocalypse than the truth: the things that will destroy us are extensions of the unsexy but obvious problems all around us. We are not doomed in one grand way, but a thousand petty small ways.

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.
