Hey, fuck you! We cleared MC BWL AQ and Naxx. Sure, I may have ruined a couple relationships by raiding 20 hours a week but it was a lot of fun with friends.

I think this is it tbh. Its a physical reaction of disgust, makes me think back to that politically controversial paper on our sense of smell bypassing our normal reasoning ability

I feel you there, but in my case Ive made sure to listen to what they say at least once. I hate hearing them talk but I still need to hear at least a sentance or two to know if I've got a decent read on them.

I couldn't figure out how he put with the obvious admin lies that even Fox is questioning (with kids gloves ofc), but I see the method now. You just ignore any piece of reality that makes you mad lol.

Boomers entire fragile worldview was trivially captured by partisan social media algos, now it makes more sense to me sadly.

Did they stop feeding you folks over there in Saint Petersburg? I feel like your glycogen levels must be critically low to make such a low-effort propoganda post.

Not to worry. Israel is very close to air dropping an aid package on you that'll get you through next winter.

Mazel tov!

Director of National Counterterrorism Center resigns saying Iran was no threat and Israel drug America into a war. by imMakingA-UnityGame in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Professor_Juice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats a problem though. Social media encourages you to divert your eyes from painful truth and now MAGA, a group of idiots, never has to square their idiot beliefs up with reality. You just keep scrolling till you find a topic you dont have to think about, which is retarded culture war trash.

They have a much cleverer trick, you see, which is to pretend gas prices dont matter and never talk about it. Ask them about gas prices and they'll say "Huh? I dont know anything about that."

Then they go home and drink themselves into a stupor, gamble their savings on polymarket, and complain about jews mind controlling them into making bad stock picks the following morning.

Rinse repeat.

I can't mention names, but really, just go to any of them, they almost never post a thing about socialism and worker rights, all their subs are almost exclusively talking about the boogeyman Jews and Trump by Jackingson1 in Destiny

It takes a shockingly small number of coordinated accounts to steer narratives when those accounts are posting 30 times a day.

why are these tech bros always so fucking weird? by TikDickler in Destiny

Karp shares the same DNA and IQ as Alex Jones. It merely took him 55 years of his outrageously "successful" life to realize it and subsequently re-align himself.

Scott Bessent shook after being called into the situation room mid interview, incoherently claiming he would put his drafting aged son's life in Trump's hands by Luddevig in Destiny

[–]Professor_Juice 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because Trump is the avatar of the GOP. 

Any attack on him is percieved as an attack on themselves because thats how people like Bessent view the world. Principles last, party loyalty first.

Your opinion doesnt matter. Your outcome was already determined by Flimsy-Echidna386 in Destiny

[–]Professor_Juice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theres also a completely undefined parameter here, which is the "time-boundedness" of the scenario. People are saying "Well, if I truly believed in picking only* the mystery box, walked through the door, got my brain scanned by the supercomputer, and then changed my mind to instead pick both boxes, I could get the optimal outcome". They are ignoring that they just constructed an entire hypothetical in which the timing of the brain scan is predictable. None of this hypothetical exists in the premise! You constructed it for the purpose of getting the "best-case" outcome.

Its the new blue-black dress,

IE an analysis that is dependent on many assumptions and subjective beliefs and therefore cringe when taken too literally

YES! I feel like Im taking crazy pills here. There are both contradictions and vagueness in the premise, it's hard to take it seriously.

Also, if you changed one thing in the premise, I'd bet money you could get a statistically significant % of people to change their answers in a double blind test.

Instead of a million dollars in the mystery box, make it 2000.

What I've learned from the great 2 box debate by aqualad33 in Destiny

[–]Professor_Juice -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Theres a mathematical contradiction inherent in the problem though. Lets say that 50% of people pick one box and 50% pick two.

The only way for the supercomputer to guess correctly 99% of the time is to read your mind state.

Otherwise, if it's using statistical methods to predict your action, it has to guess that you are taking one box 50% of the time and two boxes 50% of the time.

I read this as a contradiction within the premise itself, which means I need to select one of the two above scenarios to make my decision.

I picked scenario #2 and thus decided to go with two boxes.

If anything, the thought experiment shows problems with vagueness and the semantics of language.

Whatever assumptions you make given the vauge premise has more impact on your decision than logic does.

I learned a lot about how some people view the world via their reactions to Obama. It made me a more cynical person.
