We are there. It’s fascism. I think people are afraid to admit it because it will require them to admit things about themselves that they aren’t comfortable with.

People liked thinking they would risk more when it was theoretical.

another major difference is Wikipedia was/is a collective project of humans trying to explain human knowledge to each other, funded by donations and not aiming to profit
One major difference is that “don’t cite Wikipedia as a source” was the prevailing sentiment in for its first 15 years of existence. Within a year of its introduction, lawyers and corporate leaders cite chatgpt with little shame or introspection
Some of the anti-AI stuff feels a bit like when people would say "don't use Wikipedia as a source." It's just like anything else, a piece of information that you weigh against multiple sources and your own understanding of its likely failure modes

This was my terrible idea.

Me: I loved Ed and Eric talking about their Realization moments when it came to Musk. We should discuss that!

BT: hm, okay, I’ll think about it.

Two months later, in El Salvador:

Me: I’m sorry, man.

Integrable Hamiltonian systems are real gems to physicists. Because we can do so much more with integrable systems than others, it's really our duty to extract as much knowledge as we can from these precious jewels! 6/6

Got mad enough about this that I turned this thread into a blog.

Kamala Harris did not engage in overt identity politics.

Donald Trump did. It probably helped him.

And yet, pundits like Weiss, Stephens & Dowd treat identity politics *only* as a failed Dem tactic.

Still wild to me how the conservative vision of masculinity isn't just toxic, it's *only* the toxic parts. Zero sense of duty, responsibility, stoicism, manning up, taking things on the chin, protecting the weak, etc, etc.

Just endless whining, entitlement, and abuse of others.
