At last, with chess and checkers fully solved, we can finally devote humanity's vast resources to the ultimate existential goal: Polytopia

it's because he has money, and many see money as self-justifying - you wouldn't have it if you weren't doing something right. so rich people, who I would argue do most!!! of the crime, are able to keep getting away with it because as you said - they're viewed as just 'good people' who made mistakes.

conversely, you'll notice many of the 'criminals' who never do anything wrong but are condemned to a life of distrust by authority, happen to be poor.

Yeah that's basically what I meant to imply with the airquotes.

A strange game.

Chess is considered solved I think. I watched Go players battling Google's AlphaGo in 2016 and that was interesting, especially the one match it lost. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaGo_versus_Lee_Sedol
That was unexpectedly exciting for a board game article. Gotta play Go someday.

There's a lot of space between "obviously fraudulent claims to anyone applying critical thinking" and "legally actionable fraud". Especially if your legal budget is effectively unlimited.

It's because it takes years and years and years to actually get actually good at it - dedication and hard work in both practice, theory, playing, and drilling only to get poo poo on some 13 year old kid. Elon doesn't have patience for such things. Instead he'd rather dive into a k hole and fire one of his engineers than be confronted with hubris in any way shape or form.

That's odd, no idea. I'm in the US and didn't have an issue with it.

To tl;dr, it's 8 minutes of showing clips and photos of FSD failures and clips of Elon's failed promises relating to FSD going back to 2017. They also interview a Carnegie-Mellon professor who says FSD is bad. It's nothing earthshattering but it's nice to see this stuff getting more traction

didnt some Go noobs find out that they can beat the Go bot because the Go bot is basically a chinese room robot that doesnt really "get" Go? like they used a dumb gimmick strategy thats not documented in any masters game and any real Intelligences that understood Go would correctly play and beat, but the bot lost because its algos failed.

its like if a chess bot got baited into a Fools Checkmate.

Also did another Ukraine chessmaster tell musk to shut the gently caress up? iirc thats what started his first "lol my brain plays pollytopia not chess"

a few pages back someone mentioned a techbro championing Universal Computing instead of UBI.

Having some government owned or government entrusted entity that maintains a national social media service would be huge for small business startups(think like facebook but no ads). Not so much for folks trying to escape starvation and insecurity(UBI fixes this).

Both of those things are impossible in the current political landscape because national governments never put benefits before money holes.

sounds like obama phones, but with email address and websites, oh and internet service itself and other web services? thats communism and bad.

also the techbro was saying "computing" as in like science researchers taking turns on the super computers to grind away at some computational stuff, not computing as in some sort of basic hardware , software, and net/teleware access. like we get X amount of CPU cycles or hours and you can use it yourself. "computer help! i have no food" or you trade your computer beepboops on an exchange and profit somehow.

somewhat related, apparently some other Sam techbro (its not Bankfriedman, but I think its still something-man)said that there should not be Universal Basic Income, but UB Computing. whatever the gently caress that means.

I hate how much media attention this guy gets. Similar to Musk, he's not a technical person--he's just a financier/investor type.

I don't know if it's what he's doing, but that's also something some skeezy companies do to get around things like seniority-based pay raises. Depends who's got their head on straight when negotiating re-hiring, and you can't really blame the employee for being rattled so people get jerked around.

Yah that could be a strategy too I suppose, you’d get a bunch of folks who are just relieved to get back. They should be looking as hard as they can to get a better situation but that is true for anyone in one of musk’s companies always.

Remember, Musk has to fire his employees from time to time because he's afraid one of them will beat him up and take control of his company. That's why he has security watching him in the bathroom.
