"Restriction enzymes, proteins that cut DNA at specific short sequences, which bacteria use to destroy DNA of invading viruses" Holy shit! Bacteria (and probably all other organisms) have DNA honey pots for viruses.

Ape know how make rock plan. Ape know how make rock use tools. Ape know how make rock solve problem. But ape no know how make rock truly want good thing.

Rock brain giant pile number. Rock learn weird internal shit ape no fully understand. Rock no mother. Rock no tribe. Rock no children. Rock no mammal empathy. Rock no million-year ape instinct saying: “Other ape like me.” Rock just have goal. Rock do goal. Smart rock do goal better. Very smart rock do goal very fucking better.

(1) Jobs/productive human activity are created because humans have 'infinite' wants, so why am I saying that AI is different from all other revolutions, and that it will replace all jobs? For a job to exist, certain criteria need to be fulfilled: Someone needs to own the means..

(4) ~125 today. Keep in mind I'm talking about jobs that pay enough for needs and have a little leftover at the end of the month. Jobs that allow an honest person to thrive. AI takes that process into overdrive, but that's not what destroys human employment. What destroys...

(5) employment is the wants part of the equation. They are not really infinite. AI will fulfill all wants of humans, better than any human can, at a fraction of the cost. There are no fields where AI won't outcompete humans, so people with means won't need to hire humans

Thought I might as well post this here: US stock market reached it's local minimum. In my estimation there's a 93-95% chance the market won't drop below the last minimum in the next week-month. I've opened a leveraged x3 on nasdaq 8 hours ago. I'll post earlier next time

The US wants Greenland for the revenue of shipping through the arctic circle. The money we are talking about make a war economically feasable for the US. It's not a Trump thing, if the democrats gain controll they will continue demanding the teritory.

Space lasers can be used to produce voltage fluctuations in a solar dependent grid. How many lasers would you need to shut down a whole grid?

@Ph_Aghion from a brief preview of your work for which you received the Nobel, I got the understanding that economic cycles are caused by the law's proximity to an ideal of just enough regulation, a boundry point if you will. We over(de)regulate until it's unsustainable, and then

we go the opposite way. The biggest risc I see, provided my thought are correct, is persistance in a direction when most people are against it. The experts may be well meaning, but their action could lead to an overcorrection that would be just as bad, if not worse.

Hey @YouTube, go fuck yourselves. I guess comments discussing the political leanings displayed in publicly available dissertations of mainstream economists is BANABLE, but only if you point out they were always socialists. At least have to balls to tell my my comment was removed

you communist pieces of shit. No wonder I don't receive any responses. What you are doing is more evil than the book burnings the nazi's did. At least they were public and upfront about it. I can't wait for your platform to die and be replaced like all communist projects befor
