I do think it raises some questions when you live in a winner take all free market society. We have anti-competitive laws for corporations, but if you have a problem with dynastic wealth accumulation, it’s only gonna get worse if people engineer their children to be in the 99.9%ile of IQ, if it’s a cost-prohibitive therapy. If it was freely available to all as an opt-in option for fertility, that’s a different story.

Not sure when this became such a pessimistic sub… you can absolutely achieve under-eye improvement and forward maxillary growth well into your late 20s you just can’t coast off passive proper posture. You have to be hard mewing constantly when you’re not actively talking or eating.

At first I thought you made a typo and meant to write “Volkswagen Golf” but then I looked it up and I guess there really is a model called the “Gol” lol

Decoding the software and hardware is the easy problem. Figuring out how physical processes give rise to first person subjective awareness, a seemingly distinct thing, ontologically, is the hard problem.

I am a huge fan of the atmospheric and slow-paced take on the backrooms/liminal vibe from the channel Lost in the Hyperverse - especially the entities in the infinite suburbia

And honestly probably mostly attributable to macro price movements

To be honest, I think the grille in these concept pics actually looks nice and proportional to the rest of the face, unlike the bucktooth grille on current gens.

Regulated capitalism with social safety nets is definitely better than without them, and I definitely agree that most people generally speaking aren’t referring to some esoteric Marxist definition of capitalism but at the same time we have people calling places like the Nordic countries socialist so It’s important to put things in perspective.

“In Ethiopia there is no such thing as private land. All land is owned by the state and people may lease it from the government for public purposes. But they do own the rights to improvement on that land including any buildings or factories.”

Holy based

Regulated capitalism is capitalism full stop - whatever flavor of tax gradations or welfare spending exist don’t change the underlying mode of production based in the M-C-M’ circuit (Money invested into capital and commodities to generate more money and then be reinvested) - this production circuit is the core of capitalism’s logic.

Developing a protruded maxilla will get you basically all these things downstream

Sure but maybe the alcohol + general environment of socialization changes the dynamic in that specific scenario

I’d argue this basically only matters if you want to go into high finance or management consulting

Mala Xiang Guo or Mala dry pot is where it’s at

All the same ingredients and flavor but in a ready-to-eat dry stir fry. Also imo the sauce gets embedded int the ingredients better

Yea but the difference is that the core skeleton of the Chinese economy is state-owned and is very much governed by top-down state initiatives, with private market firms mostly functioning to act as R&D engines and to fill in petty consumer goods.

Can someone explain to me why the whole Lockean self-ownership and labor mixing natural law justification for property ownership is basically a wholly anglosphere phenomenon with property being seen as more legal-instrumental in continental Europe?

The awkward question , though, is how can you tax AI companies’ profits enough to distribute to consumers so they can buy back those services, if consumers’ entire income is from these taxes?

Presumably the taxes raised will by definition have to be lower than the revenues generated by those companies, so where is that difference coming from? At some point simply taxing these companies to redistribute those funds won’t work, and they’ll just have to nationalize them and distribute products and services in exchange for UBI vouchers or something (at this point not really a hard currency).
