  I’m reasonably sure they call themselves “bears”.

  There was probably no gap from head to finger or toe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too soon?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Why desensitize a population to something that they should be sensitive about?

  Cynically, I think this has already happened. That horse has bolted.

  Which is your say, I do agree with your argument, I just think it’s already too late to argue it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too soon?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s OK. A civil war is a small price to pay for having the 2nd amendment to protect the 1st.

  Or something like that, I heard it somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How popular/important do you have to be for your death by homicide to be labeled as an "assassination"? What if the homicide is for a private matter that's separate from their importance?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The term “assassin” likely has roots in hashshāshīn (“hashish smokers or users”), a mispronunciation of the original Asāsiyyūn, but not a mispronunciation of Assasiyeen (pronounced “Asāsiyyeen”, the plural of “Asasi”). Originally referring to the methods of political control exercised by the Assasiyuun, one can see how it became “assassin” in several languages to describe similar activities anywhere.

  Apparently by smoking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too soon?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the point. A gun’s purpose is to kill.

  And I was thinking of the victim being an animal that needs to be euthanized or something.

  Technically, it’s when an assassin does it.

  and in some ways it was a good thing.

  It is. It really should be a prerequisite for gun ownership: you have to kill something.

  That is a threshold I can’t personally cross, so I don’t think should own a gun (i dont).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Say hello to Bary⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Correct.

  I also believe that on of the criteria for a binary planet is that the barycenter is outside either body. Like Pluto/Charon.

  Paying an employee minimum wages just means you’d pay them less if it was legal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does AI need to be perfect to replace jobs?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I meant it doesn’t need to be perfect. It only needs to just barely as good as the people it replaces and appear cheaper on a balance sheet/cash flow statement for the quarter. Otherwise every service company wouldn’t be buying crap ‘AI’ chat bots for all customer facing duties.

  Alternatively, self driving vehicles are probably already better than the bottom 50% of drivers in 50% of situations. I.e. driving on a road. We still want flawed human oversight of that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does AI need to be perfect to replace jobs?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, the employees it’s replacing are not perfect…

  It just needs to be cheaper.

  Depending on your jurisdiction, your local commerce regulator might have a different opinion of the legality of this that VW, especially when they’re taking away features you already paid for.
