Maxine Waters hates crypto bullshit with the fire of a thousand suns, she's not in power any more but she can help jam this up

the user who cannot read has been guided to go not read elsewhere

it's all fallout from the tariffs yeah

still holds - it's still a bunch that needs a label and that's the label

even as TREACLES was right there

The commenter has been directed elsewhere.

I finished and realised Yudkowsky was the good guy in my story here. Because the other guy is fuckin' Sam.

yeah, Nvidia is gonna be fine. They make a useful thing that people want and is the best in its field. I've spoken to Nvidia people, they know damn well this is a bubble and they're making hay while the sun shines, but also NVDA has always been volatile as hell and they tend to assume Mr. Market is just on crack again.

The AI bubble takes out tech and thus the S&P 500. US stocks are fucked. Buuuut, I expect to see in about six hours that they're fucked already. Edit: it's coming up 08:00 UTC. Asia and Europe markets open, down about 10%. Yyyyeeeahhhh boyeeeeeeeeee

In the late 2000s, rationalists were squarely in the middle of transhumanism. They were into the Singularity, but also the cryonics and a whole pile of stuff they got from the Extropians. It was very much the thing.

These days they're most interested in Effective Altruism (loudly -the label at least) and race science (used to be quiet, now a bit louder). I hardly ever hear them even mention transhumanism as it was back then.

Did rationalists abandon transhumanism?

Is it just me? What happened?

now writing up for pivot. this is fucking inane.
