If an artist has disdainful feelings towards image generators, I sympathize. If somebody holds disdain for things like AlphaFold, fuck em then.

It’s the artistic argument that using AI is taking away a fundamental human experience, except not really, and there are lives on the line now.

Welch or Cawthon?

I hope who ever posted this wasn‘t actually thinking about what this would entail to people who saw this.

This is a great thing to long on and see after one of my family members died of cancer.

You see if Jordan Peterson was moderately intelligent he would cite the fact that Godel formalized a version of the Ontological Proof of God and use that as evidence, but he's not even on that level. Sad!

Peterson is also a bad postmodernist writer in spirit for egregiously misusing concepts like Godel's theorem.

William Gillis pointed out that, despite hinging his entire career on hating postmodernists, Jordan Peterson is essentially on the side of the scientific antirealists for aligning with Jung. And the antirealist strain of postmodernism was the type that Sokal et al were arguing against.

Say what you will about rationalistspeak, it's not even ten percent as bad as postrationalistspeak.

What's the epistemic status of this post?

I'm guessing the latter based on how shoulder is used.

Did we ever get an answer to whether "shoulder of Orion" meant in the Orion cluster or "in the sky near the Orion constellation?"

Vučić literally started crying when the UN established a Srebrenica memorial day.

Why the fuck have I said "Groyper" so many times.

It also doesn't get around the measure problem.

It seems to me to rely entirely on some form of dualism, or at the very least a rejection of functionalism. Otherwise the answer for "why does the quale of pain respond to the physical sensation of pain?" is the same as asking "why is water H20?" They are not separate phenomena.

As far as I can tell, it's just a variant of the fine tuning argument that gets around the anthropic principle by claiming that the vast majority of life in all possible worlds would be "psychophysically disharmonious." And the fact that we are not experiencing this is an update in favor of theism.

It's actually so hilarious that Uwe was a professional Boxer and Lowtax wasn't so he thought Uwe was going to go easy on him and then Uwe beat his ass lmao.

Uwe Boll should have hit him harder.

I actually really like him even if I mostly disagree. But I find his compassionate weirdness (the shrimp stuff) a lot more interesting than the God weirdness.

He started writing the blog in High School iirc

While this was happening there was a joke in my friend group that the Virgin Mary’s appearance was a supernatural event but it was conducted by demons to lead the Portugese away from Islam.

So much about Bentham‘s Bulldog begins to make sense when you learn he’s an actual child.

*yeah oops. Well I guess I sound like a scotsman

So funny whenever you get to Ellsberg’s paradox in a decision theory class, and you have to be like, ye, that Daniel Ellsberg.
