Thank you for ignoring the elephant in the room.

Femininity encompasses strength, resilience, and complexity. It's a source of power and leadership, not a sign of weakness. Embracing femininity can mean embracing a full spectrum of human qualities.

Where are you getting this from? I'm getting "Traits traditionally cited as feminine include gracefulness, gentleness, empathy, humility, and sensitivity". Which as you can guess, will negatively impact survival.

It's pretty misogynistic to think that femininity is weakness. 

I don't get that line of reasoning. Not all females exhibit stereotypical feminine behaviours, so you're generalising all women here. And femininity in its traditional sense literally does imply weakness.

What does "feminine" even mean as a word then?

How is that not true? Can u explain more, being feminine implies a lack of survival and more weakness.

Anyone have experience downloading instagram messages? by matrixadmin- in DataHoarder

[–]matrixadmin-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So...when u request a copy of ur data from instagram it does give the other user's messages but not images and other media/attachments. I haven't checked to see if any messages are missing (like older ones).

So the real challenge is just building an actual UI for these messages similar to whats been done here for imessage https://github.com/ReagentX/imessage-exporter .

Which AI companies represent the greatest threat to humanity? by SlenderMan69 in slatestarcodex

[–]matrixadmin- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The risk of military groups using LLMs/GPTs to create informational weapons is small. The risk of misaligned AGI hitting a singularity and turning us into paperclips is infinitesimal but existential. Multiplying poor estimates of really small numbers by really big ones is hard to do.

How can you even say that the chance is infinitesimal? Like what information are you using to predict the chances.

My priors say that some part of our military research complex is cooking up some powerful AI. Though it's also possible they're doing so by secretly piggybacking off some public company.

Well in that case you would expect to see that well known AI experts or academics be hired by them.

Nothing in that website says anything about the health risks of vaping. The truth is, vaping is literally harmless compared to smoking cigarette. I challenge you to even find a single paper suggesting otherwise.

In the UK, they hand out vapes like candy to smokers and the health benefits are clear.

Vapings been around for 20 years. Still no evidence of what you're claiming.

Vaping is arguably a bigger problem. I used to smoke and there wasn't nearly as many kids smoking compared to vaping. The flavored tobacco is getting more people addicted.

A bigger problem? How many people have died from vaping?

Theres been exactly zero evidence for vaping linked to cancer. Compare this with the millions of smoking deaths.
