Support doesn’t mean blind agreement or obedience. Supporting your country means working to change what is shit about it and not running away. So yes.

Sad.

I agree wholeheartedly we’re obsessed with property, but that wild a tonal shift could only be the work of an LLM

Too many people out here overfitting to pure signal. Sometimes you need some noise in the dataset to generalise better.

What we need is an LLM reasoner fine tuned on bitcoin maxis to find the most plausible logical chain that ends in « bitcoin fixes this », regardless of initial prompt conditions.

He redefined our cultural norms.

I respect the man’s specificity of training.

No complex supply chains and civilisation relying on stable weather 25 million years ago… just sayin’

The problem with pure signal is you overfit. Gotta have some of that noise to generalise baby

Could you explain this thought a little further my good man

Prob gold is overvalued, when you look at what happened in 1980. was even worse than today.

You could. But not everything needs to be shared, and perhaps the viewers gaze would alter the experience negatively.

It blows my mind that in Australia alone 3-4 people die every day, and another 170 are seriously injured because people can’t give up the convenience of a car (a metal missile piloted at lethal speeds)

I hope you find the peace and love you’re looking for brother. I doubt the ideology you’ve found will get you there, but what do I know.

You’re right. Ive never lived in Africa or any predominantly black communities. I’ve done some volunteering with African and Afghan refugee kids, and worked professionally with black colleagues (both immigrants and second generation). My experience has been mixed, but any problems I’ve are obviously cultural and not race related.

If you can point to any data that suggests I’m wrong I’ll reassess my personal experience. As it stands I can’t see any correlation between melanin and being a shit bloke.

There’s more than just race that explains these global disparities. And when I use my eyes and own experience interacting with black people, I don’t find race is an explanatory factor dude. So basically, there’s no data I can find to support your views, and my own real world experience doesn’t support your views 🤷. If I go on twitter, I find lots of video clips of black people doing shitty things, but I don’t really trust algos man.

I think if you’re going to build your identity around a contrarian viewpoint (which is a cool vibe), this is probably the wrong one to pick. Will just lead to misery in the long term I reckon.

What I like about your point of view is that it’s heterodox and contrary to the mainstream - and therefore useful to air and consider.

I also agree the blank slate is not true, nature is huge (although nurture is also obviously important - otherwise it wouldn’t matter what parents you have).

I can only speak to my experience, which is that culture and renaissance/reformation thinking is more important than race as a characteristic. When I’ve worked with people fresh off the boat I’ve found I often didn’t enjoy the experience, but racially diverse people brought up in my culture are generally pretty awesome.

I would be more convinced by your point of view if I could find evidence that:

1. Genetic diversity within racial groups isn’t bigger than genetic differences across groups.

2. Racial differences persist after a couple of generations

The last time I did a deep dive on race science I was very underwhelmed by the poor quality of the studies.

I’ve just found it better to treat people as individuals, to not assume any characteristics about them based on physical cues, and that seems to work out pretty well for me. Your mileage may vary. Happy for you to share any high quality evidence you think supports your views.

I’ll never understand this low level obsession with group differences. Treat people as individuals. Every definable group has dipshits and legends. Love the legends, and pity the dipshits.

Look at me. I’m the captain now.

Someone can push spam data to the blockchain

Would be interesting if true. Need to control for population increases in the respective states. Unclear if increase just due to population getting bigger.
