Don't worry, it's just Santa. He's testing out some new drone tech.

It's the difference between finite and infinite games. Computers are good at finite games.

Yeah, I don't like how bots make very stupid blunders. Their difficulty doesn't scale down intelligently as one would expect. It's kinda sad that Chess.com doesn't have higher quality bots which play at typical human levels. I like that with bots I can play at my own pace. I treat it as entertainment.

So just like every war ever fought

At one point every country in the world was dominated by very conservative ideology. But progress happened regardless. You can't stop progress, though conservatives will certainly die trying.

When it comes to war, legitimate does not exist. It's whatever you can get away with.

You can but the more you do that the higher your risk becomes of doing something stupid or dangerous. It's a very bad idea to allow yourself to dose while you are tripping because your judgment will be impaired, so you are likely to re-dose a lot more than you should because when you're high you stop caring about being careful and you will feel invincible. I recommend you get a timed lock-box and lock away your chemicals so you physically cannot re-dose during a trip. This is an important safety protocol.

Some good analysis:

I'm learning quite well from my blunders against bots.

Oh God, please don't spread her content. She is an epistemic pervert.

How well does your ELO carry over into Fischer Random?

The hardware is very impressive. But the software to actually make is useful and autonomous is probably 10+ years away. I am very skeptical they will be able to program it easily. It's gonna be as hard as FSD. My guess is it will be able to do cool demos in artificial environments but it won't be useful in real-world applications because there are too many edge-cases. It will not able to do even basic tasks like taking out the trash or washing dishes. A home-bot is very far away. Maybe they can make them useful for repetitive factory work.

Fair point. I should play real people more. I am training up on bots first so that I don't make embarassing blunders.

I'm not sure. Haven't played it much. I dislike memorizing opening theory. To me that's not real chess.

More Incel rage-bait?

Buddha should have run an ice cream stand. #BuddhaFailed

At least AI doesn't drink and doesn't text.

I anticipated this possibility, which is why I qualified my blog post about Anna going Yellow with a remark about horseshoe theory. I was concerned that it might turn into some horseshoe nonsense. I was being charitable to her. I try to be nice to these people but they disappointment all the time. This anti-establishment stuff is getting really stupid. TYT has rotted her mind.

Obviously most people will not move beyond Green for all sorts of pragmatic reasons. But everything I speak about assumes you are aiming beyond Green. So my speech is biased in that regard. I am not speaking to the average Joe. If you wanna talk about the best political strategy for the average Joe, that's a very different thing from the stuff I talk about or even care about. But obviously that strategy talk is needed too. It's just not my area of interest.

He never followed up to set it up. I'll keep trying. Maybe he will.

You've borne the risk of people driving since day one.

The New Left is not in charge of the Defense Department, military planning, or the intelligence agencies. That's all run by many conservatives and centrists. No one is going to let left-wing protestors run military policy. This is like giving a credit card to a heroin addict.

That's cause he chooses to conduct his business with media attention-whores and perverts. Destiny could engage with more thoughtful people. There are many intelligent and mature people on YT. Like Vlad Vexler or Daniel Schmachtenberger or me. But the lack of drama wouldn't get the views and clicks that Destiny wants. Destiny's own development is hampered by him fishing for drama and views. Higher consciousness discussions just can't get the same view counts as the clickbait drama that Destiny likes to get himself into. To go higher he'd have to outgrow that style of content and settle for less views and less fame. That's gonna be tough for him to stomach. Destiny is stuck in a cycle of wrestling with pigs for clicks. It gets him lots of material success but his soul suffers for it. He is addicted to the YouTube game, like a fish in water. If you want to seriously develop eventually you must surrender the temptation to wrestle with pigs. Why do you think I don't do that kind of content?
