Somewhat tangential, but a few years back Bedside Rounds did an episode on how some believed that a powerful enough database could replace a doctor's need to diagnose. There was some fruitful data that suggested a computer could out perform doctors, but as the project developed, further complications arose. Some thought the method was sound and the computing power was lacking. This was during the late sixties and early seventies, so the first AI wave.

Turn on the sound.

I agree with this.

As a leftist, celebrate life and fight so others can have those celebrations. Checking your privilege can be an entrance to that battlefield, but it can also stall out there. And it can feel like something important has been done because of how much feeling it has. But stalling out there does nothing to liberate anyone.

Requiem for a Dying Planet was the sound scape for Werner Herzog's Wild Blue Yonder. A brilliant film backed by this album, I feel that the album stands on its own.

This recording brings together three very disparate elements into a synergistic whole. They are Ernst Reijseger’s cello, the choral singing of the Sardinian group Tenore e Cuncordu de Orosei and the soaring vocals of Senegalese singer Mola Sylla. Each is a singular expression of music from widely differing traditions; together, they’re indescribable.

Requiem For a Dying Planet is not the anticipated death song for the earth, this music is dedicated to this wonderful planet and the beauty of living which could be heavenly if religions would not exist.”

He didn't call for the death of Israel.

Man... This one has lived rent free in my mind for almost thirty years. I had to read this and other German tales in German class.

Its political not because of money but because of people.

Satanists are cooler than these assholes.

The entire enterprise is political. You have to claim you're an authority first by creating an argument and then defending that claim. That is politics.

The time it takes to learn about a subject costs a fair amount of money. The people with money, by and large, aren't experts. They need to be convinced by the claimant that they deserve the money because they are experts and able to do something valuable with that money. This is politics.

This idealized views of science knowledge creation is a thin investigation into the social and political aspects of science. It makes no room for starts, transitions, different levels of expertise, or old experts, often revered in the field, defending their positions because of their political status in the field.

Addressing these issues at depth take time and is exhausting when dealing with the self assured idealist.

How'd they snag you? Was it coerced or a quick grab?

How'd they treat you once they got you?

Harris failed not because of her policies, but because she never was willing to sincerely differentiate herself from a Democratic party who continued to put themselves and their donors ahead of the average citizen.

Trump blew up the Republican party and it was a breathe of fresh air for a Washington full of their own self interest.

Its faaaaaar less about policies. It about an actual vision and authenticity. For as shitty as it is, Trump has this and Harris didn't. This is leverage.

Edit: I wholly agree with the white supremecy undercurrent. But this isn't new.

100% agree.
