I think this is a good coarse grained analysis, but it's possible and worth doing to get more specific in specific cases that may be exceptions to the rule. For example, nukes didn't have to go through a long process of social dissemination before becoming enormously impactful

Would you recommend to an anime-normie?

Maybe separate road rules for bots and humans. Although if there are any humans on the road at all I guess the bots need to slow down to accommodate them

I don't really either, I always preferred the old way on twitter

Cheers!

I've gotta adjust my liking habits back over here, can't be leaking all my heinous preferences

I'm the same, the night sky doesn't give me that reaction. But like, the boötes void does, and ton 618 does. I feel like in some sense the night sky "should"

The first one?

I've been saying!

Been going through the Mindscape podcast (Sean Carroll) archives and it's a goldmine

Are people using the custom feeds much?

I think if you really believe the Everett interpretation, it should give you thalassophobia. The infinitesimal size of our own trajectory compared to the enormity of the continuum of branching worlds surrounding us is kind of horrifying

The web app's definitely feeling a lot nicer than the last time I was here

I think downvotes reduce variance. The most egregious drivel gets buried, but you also lose iconoclastic insights. The top voted comments are lowest common denominator slop

I appreciate the public service you're doing by collecting large lists of people to block in one convenient place

I'm a copyright maximalist. learning is now illegal

we're the same people lmao

personally if I were reporting accusations from others that I didn't want to stand behind, I would use more equivocal phrasing

maybe nobody's validating the parts of you that you're actually insecure about? I feel like that would be my problem

pointers?

Nice wings, birb

I feel like the framework of preference only really makes sense in situations where you have agency over the outcome. As soon as you're able to pick between the two scenarios, you're reintroducing the guilt factor, so 5vs1 is strictly better

Hello, Bluesky community! I'm Peter Singer, philosopher and author, exploring ethical questions, with a focus on animals, effective altruism, utilitarianism and bioethics. I've had it with Elon Musk and his rigged algorithms to promote Trump, so I’m leaving X and joining all of you here.

It’s easy to forget that most people only know “I Can Tolerate Anything Except the Outgroup” and “The Categories Were Made For Man, Not Man For the Categories”. And “Meditations on Moloch” of course.

Of course

Ideally people should have integrity in their beliefs. Ideology shouldn't be contingent on whether particular people are nice to you. But from a results oriented perspective we should recognize the fact that people are human, and not alienate them unnecessarily. This kind of blame isn't constructive

Some languages are just kind of like that for some reason. the situation in haskell is pretty dire

the elites don't want you to know but the social media sites on the internet are free. you can take them home. I have 17 social media

To me this feels analogous to standing on the other side of a room from me and bitching about me to someone else in a loud voice. I was obviously likely to see it, and I'm supposed to ignore the disparagement?
