But it's not equal. Israel is trying to ethnically cleanse Palestine. It's a sick deliberate project. What makes this situation so confusing is that the higher developed people are trying to exterminate the less developed people. That's counter-intuitive. You'd expect the opposite. Yes, of course. But then there's understanding why others are misunderstanding. Which bias obstructs the understanding of.

Don't know about it. Caring about understanding the situation.

But I mean beyond that. Regardless of my opinion, your biases cloud your judgment. Do I really need to explain that Palestine is less developed than Israel?

@Karmadhi Be mindful of your biased view on this issue. Your passion clouds your ability to see other's views clearly.

If what we had was truly intelligent and creative, then we wouldn't be calling it AI slop, we would be calling it AI genius, and people would be paying extra to view it. Why isn't AI producing grand works of art that surpass human-made work? It's not even close. Where is the AI Shakespeare? Show me one book written by AI that I would want to read. It's simple really: If AI was so great, then you could charge extra for AI work. But the opposite is the case. AI work is often nearly worthless. If AI work so was great, everyone would be slapping "Made with AI" on their products and services. People would even be trying to pass off human work as made by AI.

I think for him it's simple: Palestinian = backwards religious lunatics and terrorists. I think many people look at the issue as one of backwards Muslims vs civilized Israelis, and side with civilized Israelis. Of course that's not my view. But I understand the allure of that view. If you are not deeply informed and objective, then civilized Israelis seems the better side. Israeli IS more developed than Palestine. That's the bottom line for many people. They are choosing based on development level, not morality or justice. There is a xenophobic aspect to this as well. Muslims are just more alien to the West than Jews. Basically, people are simple-mindedly picking the less alien side. For someone like Trump, he's thinking about it like this: Would I rather be allied with rich Jews or poor Muslims? The answer for him is obvious.

Almost zero. I don't know. That will be decided based on how good/low the values are. I look for good value. I am opportunistic in that way. I don't buy stuff unless I see a good value/discount. Right now I am not even looking for good value because the market is so over-inflated. If the market drops 50%, then I will consider shopping. I am not going to invest my money into the market as long as Trump is office. The only exception is if the market crashes, then I am okay to invest. But I will not allow Trump to lose my money.

Nuance. He is bad on Israel but good on most other aspects of politics. You don't have to agree with people on everything to get value from their views.

For meditation to make any serious difference, it has to be done very hardcore, full-time. Kriya yoga is more effective, so you might wanna try that instead. Kriya yoga is designed for house-holders, not monks.

Understanding God requires very serious questioning of all human teachings and ideas. Not just blindly following one path.

Hindu four ages. Kali Yuga, etc.

@LordFall Lol Drown him in maple syrup.

Of course that is the Buddhist position. But it is wrong. You will not meditate your way to understanding GOD.

The problem is Buddhists don't think. They discourage thinking about Reality. That is a mistake. Meditation is not enough to solve Reality.

In that case Hitler started the war.

There is no matriarchy.

By 5% maybe.

@vinc3nc That's why I focus on macroeconomic outlook, not rallies. I have no idea what Bitcoin will do next month. But I know for sure these AI CEOs are deluded and AGI is not coming.

Daygame requires the right locations, which are only available in certain cities. Just in general, game is very location dependent. The #1 thing in game is finding the best locations.

I like more mature and serious stuff. I recently rewatched Carnivale.

A chatbot will never make a good video game. Pure nonsense.

I have not watched any Disney movies. Except Solo. I watched Mando. It was mid. I will not be watching any more Disney Star Wars. I am done.

The prequels had good, fresh ideas, just poor execution. Too much CGI and bad dialogue. Disney Star Wars is creatively bankrupt slop. The epitome of committee thinking. Shows you why corporate people can't make art.

It can be like that. It also is about deciding how to group insights together, what belongs in this topic versus another, and deciding on what order to put things in. All the relevant insights on a topic need to be grouped together. That's the tricky part. As I do that, I have more and deeper insights.

@Natasha Tori Maru Good morrow Aussie Natasha. I think about these topics so often that insight just pours down from the sky like rain that I catch with a bucket. But then when I sit down to formalize it, even more insights comes as I logically try to lay it out in a linear sequence and flesh it out with examples and logic. Intuition generates the raw insights, but then a lot of work goes into organizing it all. Organizing it all is the hardest part. And intuition is not always correct, so it needs to be logically analyzed later to weed out self-deception and incoherence. The more high quality information I consume, the more it inspires deeper insight.
