Consistent if you really mean freedom of a certain kind of speech.

I made fun of his style, in case that's any better.

When the left acts like center right, is how we got Trump in the US.

How do you think the crazy shows up in the ender/bean series? Have not read them since pre-teens.

Eh, you could cut this out at the Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback stage, which they all currently do (I think, pulling this out of my ass) to make them more polite, apologetic, etc.

I wish they would strip it of any anthropogenic features. Real waste of compute and messes with people.

At The Unjournal, we compensate experts for evaluating and rating research with impact potential. We committed to pay $450 per evaluation on average - including base pay, incentives, and prizes.

Ill put the book on the reading list. Always fun to hear about misadventures in soviet economic planning.

Thanks for clarification, and (maybe this is covered in the books) but this doesn't seem like a category error. This sound like some models are too simple (for tractability) and end up wrong. We then either need better models and should default to second or third best solutions in the meantime.

I didnt say anyone should consent to anything that makes them feel uncomfortable. If your argument is so strong why do you need to make up positions to argue against? I also didnt suggest you were a problem, I stated you should go to the fascist site.

I'm always very interested to hear criticisms of neoliberal economics, but most stop at the caricature of perfect markets, you went a bit farther with discussing blairite school and markey failures, but then you got pretty vague at the categorical error bit. You gotta land that punch.

Lots of evidence of mended market failures, so how is that a fallacy? Also can you expand on how exactly that is a categorical error, and what kind of economics/policies we should have if we throw out all mathematics. As they say, better to be approximately right than entirely wrong.

You say "neoliberal economics" (w/e that means) de-politicizes social conflict/problems but economics is the field that brought us opportunity cost as well as varying preference sets! It's all political.

I don't often recommend this, but i think you might fit in better at that fascist micro-blogging site.

Or to say it more statistically, you conditioning your sample on conflicts against Allied/NATO forces or where Allied/NATO won't offer protection.

Having air superiority helps, the rest is punching down.
