"What's MAD?" "There's a predictor figuring out if you'd launch a 2nd strike after getting nuked. If you would, they don't nuke you, but if you wouldn't, they do. You find out they've launched. Do you retaliate even though you can't change the past?" "Oh it's Nuke Em's Paradox"
Thinkers I respect the most try to hold onto the idea that there are often unknown unknowns that could blow a big hole in what they believe. In this way Rumsfeld's been more influential on my epistemics than whole years of my philosophy major.

Cancel culture gone too far? Since this professor's students labeled him Homo Sacer he exists outside the law but cannot be sacrificed in religious rituals

I have very high distrust of both TikTok and the CCP but I'm also an actual free speech absolutist. Is the legislation a violation of the 1st Amendment?
The idea of AI training on data it generates irks my physics brain. Feels like some conservation law's being violated.

This is absurd. It is not consistent with what a university is supposed to be.
Wristbands are being used to identify anti-Israel students at @UCLA so that they are allowed to enter Royce Quad, Royce Hall, and Powell Library. Some students are allowed in and out, others are kept out. This is ILLEGAL and UCLA is not just tolerating it but facilitating it.

One might wonder if there is any possible other explanation of Soviets not using nuclear weapons during WW2
"How else could we have fought the Nazis?" Prof. Mearsheimer: "Well, if you look at how the Soviets fought, who were basically responsible for defeating the Nazis... there were no bombings of cities, no dropping of nuclear weapons."

I love stuff like this where the critique of economics is clearly several iterations into a game of "telephone". chowcollection.medium.com/michael-saylor…
Absolutely. This wasn’t an ethical choice.
@janecoaston As I said somewhere else… It’s not like the Soviets had moral hangups about bombing cities, or nukes… They just had no good air superiority. I mean they conscripted factory workers to just buy time at Stalingrad and barely armed them. The casualty numbers are horrific.
Uh
