I have noticed these things go much more smoothly when you bring them from the perspective of a positive: Lets improve cycling infrastructure! Lets make our streets safer for pedestrians! Etc…

One thing that has helped me get out of this nihilistic trap sounds a but mystical but bear with me: The self and your perception of it is a construct of your brain. In reality all conscious beings are the same. You are me and I am you, we experience as one, just with different experiences. Future generations will experience the world for us just as we are experiencing it now for the past.

Only if you live in the city

No you can literally hear him say it. Go listen to the recording again.

Yeah I’d argue time is actually the most expensive thing for a mars mission. And that’s going to require a hell of a lot of mission time nobody knows how to do yet. We get a head start on it now, getting a working lifter series in production and a functioning commercial lander and habitation scene and you’ll have a much better mars mission. I think the view of mars or bust asap asap comes from a lack of understanding of how big the technical leap is from doing a moon to doing a mars mission.

its “One small step for a man”

How do you know this?

Please tell me how effecting research is equivalent to destroying their research program, which is what you posted.

Can you provide a source for research being shut down? Only thing I’ve seen stated is research being moved to a centralized location, but nowhere has anyone stated whether any research is being shut down, and that would thus he speculation

Luckily that reorganization is also illegal, and this will be reversed in the courts

Every one of your own sources contradicts your post. Your post is still misinformation, no research has been stated to cease, only that some portion of the research stations will move to a centralized location.

So, you are spreading misinformation by saying the research has been halted because nobody has said whether any research will be halted. No research program has been stated to be “destroyed” or otherwise dismantled.

Exactly. And I dislike this organizational change, and it should be stopped and reverted in the courts if its illegal. But accuracy matters.

No he did not, he ordered the restructuring of the forest service. There is and will still be a forest service doing its thing.

Not that I agree with the restructuring but accuracy matters.

Like I thought, both of these state its being restructured, not dismantled. There is and will still be a functioning forest service doing research.

Not that I like the restructure but accuracy matters.

This isn’t the park service, but rather the forest service, and afaik the title is wrong: its not being shut down just restructured. National forest lands will stay national forest lands, parks will stay parks, and nobody is losing their jobs.

But I might be misinformed, happy to be corrected.

Can you source this? Feels like a gross over exaggeration compared to the article I read before.

All hail the high seas

Moon landing fake yesterday real today

And really anthropic is making a very narrow claim:

Mystic is so good at finding bugs that it poses a danger to critical digital infrastructure.

That is not that outlandish a claim. The model is 10-15x more expensive more expensive to run than other flagship models, and if anthropic is being truthful (which is a big if, I’d like to see what they are finding), finding critical vulnerabilities like its nothing.

Makes total sense to stage the rollout privately first so critical infrastructure can be secured before these models are generally available to any attacker.

But I fucking hate their stupid marketing.
