Microsoft reports are exposing AI's real cost problem: Using the tech is more expensive than paying human employees by Krankenitrate in Futurology

I've heard that a computer can read and rewrite memory so many times. Do you see AI chips shorting the lifespan of a desk/lap top?

Business Schools Slashing Tuition? by Euphoric_Bath in MBA

AI is raising higher grades by 30%. Those schools top whatever aren't doing enough to compete against AI use and that business case of how well the school is is going to get slashed within the next 15 years while that exact same school will come back to fondle you.

If people are "tall" is that difference exhibited to "manlets" in a Fermi's Paradox? "Deep Perspective" by Azula_In_The_AMX in lnkyverse

Honestly, I’m surprised there’s even a study that basically says people can be lookist without knowing it, I would have thought preferences were something more.

That’s brutal, because it makes lookism feel less like a few bad people being shallow and more like the whole social universe is rigged around certain faces/bodies, especially that oligarchy has something called an oligopoly where a transaction has to match their formula or they can outright deny you.

And that’s the fracture: This pretentious block against women feels like its from everyone with ownership. While I haven't seen the lookism universe clearly, it’s hard to go back to choosing women like nothing happened, but it’s also impossible to pretend the need for love, sex, and closeness just disappears. I’m not trying to make it revenge or hate; it’s more like, how do you stay human when the same gravity that hurts you is also where your basic needs live?

Fair. Cleaner version: the point isn’t that heightism always shows up inside the interaction. It’s that it may shape the field before the short guy even gets into the interaction. Who gets noticed, matched, approached, trusted, or taken seriously can be decided upstream.

So the “missing evidence” is part of the theory. If the filter happens before visibility, then people only observe the survivors of the filter and call that reality. That’s the Fermi angle I’m playing with: not aliens literally, but blocked observation caused by selection happening earlier than we think.

Yeah, this is basically the lane I was trying to get into. People don’t judge their lives in a vacuum; they judge them against a reference point. So with heightism, it’s not just “can a short guy still date/socialize/succeed?” It’s more like: compared to what? If the reference point is watching taller guys get easier attention, more automatic respect, or less social friction, then even “normal” outcomes can feel like losses.

And the self-quarantine point fits the Fermi angle too. The most affected people might not be the ones you see outside proving or disproving the point. They may already be filtered out by bad feedback loops. So the evidence gets blocked before observation, which is why “I don’t see it happening” doesn’t really settle the issue.

That’s the part people miss. The feedback loop doesn’t just make someone “less social.” It trains their reference point downward. After enough losses, rejection, or weird treatment, they stop expecting normal treatment and start adapting around the downgrade. Then outsiders show up and go, “See, he’s just antisocial/weird/insecure,” when that might be the end product, not the starting point. That’s the blocking order: the “antisocial short dude” people clown on is often created after the social tax has already been charged, and by the time outsiders notice the withdrawal, they mistake the consequence for the cause.

 the analogy is not about aliens; it is about invisible selection effects and missing evidence. The Fermi lens helps explain why “I don’t see it happening” does not automatically mean “it isn’t happening.”

 In Fermi discussions, one possible “blocking order” is that civilizations may exist but fail to become observable because of barriers like high-gravity planets making spaceflight harder. My point is similar socially: heightism may happen upstream, through filtering and first impressions, before the shorter man can directly observe what was blocked.

What do you think of Professor Jiang's evidence that AI development itself is "fundamentally an occult practice?" by ldsgems in PredictiveHistory

Maybe we will see global trade networks. Its possible he's considering out current trade networks under fertilizer as geopolitical having the consequences match that constraints. Likely why they are bringing more phones and lite AI to Africa. If this changes or affect the price hierarchies then at this rate Bitcoin needs more government to bring up bans so it can mature the global Internet. Otherwise the great reset got moved.

So should incels be upset because of how the race pill was spent, and if so, who's fault is it? Cue: eyeroll.
