Billionaires pay millions of dollars to completely unqualified creepy dipshits like that entirely because they enjoy the sycophancy. I wouldn't mind if so much if that money didn't go into signal boosting the cult and financing culty shit involving unaware victims being pulled into it, drugged, and brainwashed. :agony-4horsemen:
humans are the programmable ape.
That computer touching reductionism is a harmful ideology toward both humans and apes of all kinds. It's why techbros consider it cool and good when "Neuralink" does atrocities on them.
Imagine still clinging onto the debunked computer analogy of the human brain
God, sometimes I think about how easy it must be to be right wing. Could just write shit like this all day, have a substack and patreon or whatever, and just fucking rake it in.
I must once more repeat my point that little would be a bigger favor to humanity than a sufficiently sized nuke dropped on Silicon Valley.
lets be reasonable here. Could we just make it so no one in the area can access twitter
The LessWrong forum has unleashed bizarre fascist nerds onto the world and I don't much care for them.
bizarre fascist nerds
They call themselves "grey tribe" and say "politics is the mind killer." :lenin-sure:
it is against my human rights to try an parse that gibberish
They openly ignore the critical thinking lessons in the early posts on their own website because it gets in the way of their technocratic daydreams.
Tech forum for weird silicon valley investors and coders. It's the forum where the Roko's basilisk guy came from, also where the term "neoreactionary" came from. The owner rewrote Harry Potter as a book about logic and reason instead of magic if that tells you anything about these guys.
:internet-delenda-est:
I hate how every single day I am forced to read an absolutely brain dead take from the biggest crackerman dipshits
"X really did think it would be great and not a shitshow" What a shocking revelation. Everyone who does anything thinks they are being rational. This is the most basic entry level thought you can have.
You'd hope, but I commit code all the time knowing it will be an absolute shitshow because that's what the client is asking for.
exclusively using computer metaphors to understand difficult subjects, and also immediately forgetting that they're metaphors, is the most irritating pseud habit.
My favorites are the ones that are just not true, e.g. comparing the brain to computer hardware and thoughts to software
back then there was at least the sensibility to actually kill them from time to time :inshallah: MORE :inshallah: MODERN :inshallah: SOCRATES
His pretentious weeby alias is the basis for a techbro cognitohazard concept. I think the original user of the alias is himself an ongoing producer of less infamous cognitohazards.
Like there are lots of professions that sufer from the halo effect, looking at you engineers and surgeons, but I think tec dipshits are the worst.
