programmers thinking factorio isn't gonna oneshot them is like hardware people thinking they deserve to live which is like webdevs thinking their opinion actually matters which is like networking people thinking their jobs won't get taken over by clankers which is like database "people" they know how the cpu works which is like computer engineers thinking they're nuclear engineers when they're actually more like civil engineers which is like software engineers thinking their glorified mousepad of a degree has any amount of value which is like factorio people thinking they're electrical engineers (put the fries in the bag, gregtech mogs your stupid ass progression system anyway) which is like anthropic thinking us govt will rape openai while letting them do whatever the fuck they please and then try to convince the unwashed goyim they have agi after it finds a single vulnerability in curl and can copy over all the logic from gcc into their shitty buggy mess (people fall for it anyway) which is like openai thinking they're the best and they have agi and they're profitable after bribing everyone with free limit resets like every other which is like google thinking 3.5 flash is worth releasing and that they're still in the ai race which is like melon tusk thinking his clanker is the best one there is after making it skinwalk as misa misa which is like the average gamer thinking the ai bubble is gonna pop and they'll be able to afford more than 8gb of ram which is like me thinking 67 is peak humor (actually it is)

I'd rather suffer from Samson option, than share a neighborhood with immigrants who did not get in based on requirements written in 1900s.

If you trusted "settled science" throughout history, you'd have:
- Drunk radioactive water for vitality (1920s)
- Had your healthy teeth pulled to cure mental illness (1910s)
- Smoked cigarettes for your throat, on doctor's orders (1940s)
- Taken heroin for your child's cough (1890s)
- Eaten lead paint chips as a calcium supplement (decades of this)
- Used asbestos to insulate your child's bedroom (1950s)
- Given thalidomide to pregnant women for morning sickness (1960s)
- Eaten margarine for your heart (1970s)
- Lobotomised your sister for being unhappy (1940s and 50s)
- Sprayed DDT on the children in the playground (1950s)
- Avoided all fat to lose weight (1990s)
- Replaced butter with trans-fat spreads on the doctor's recommendation (1990s)
Every generation has its medical catastrophe dressed up as health advice. Endorsed by the experts. Printed in the textbooks. Recommended by your doctor. Featured on the front of the magazines in the waiting room.
Ours is seed oils, statins, grain-based diets, ultra-processed convenience food, and the steady chemical maintenance of conditions that better food would resolve in 90 days.
Future generations will look back in horror. Just like we look back at radioactive tonics and cigarette prescriptions and wonder how anyone fell for it.
The pattern never changes. Only the product on the shelf.

Asked my wife about the red button-blue button problem.
Wife: Red button duh I’m not retarded.
Me: Ok but what if our children press blue.
Wife: My children are not retarded.

are you people really still talking about buttons? here's the thing, and listen carefully. the act of pressing this button is lived every day. it's not an abstract question of your moral goodness. red pressers still take care of others, blue pressers still treat others like shit

inventing a sacrifice nobody needs
Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.
