GJ Groothedde 🇪🇺Beste mensen, dit gaat enorm rond, maar het is niet van vandaag. Dit is de uitslag van de verkiezingen voor het Europees Parlement van vorig jaar, dus niet boosten. Er gaat al zo veel desinformatie rond.

Because the present is shit, the future promises to be even shittier, so everyone flees into the past.

@Unknowable @pvonhellermannn You can see the priorities of politicians from almost all countries there. Even though war is the least productive political endeavor of all, its priorities trump everything else: Social wellbeing, the economy, even the survival of the entire planet...
@pvonhellermannn All of this is true, but the connection to climate feels artificial and I think is also not completely honest.
If Gaza were free, the gas field off its coast would provide a massive economic boon for the State of Palestine and they'd almost certainty want to exploit it. Would we still be making the same arguments then?
(Same goes for Israel if they destroyed and settled Gaza completely. I'm sure this topic will come up sooner or later...)
Bilal Barakat 🍉Die OFFIZIELLE POLITIK Israels ist jetzt ERKLÄRTERMASSEN ethnische Säuberung. Jede "plausible deniability" ist vorbei. Was hat die @Bundesregierung dazu zu sagen?

JPevery tech worker out there whose "i donate to democrats" CEO is taking off his mask today to muhaha and show his true class solidarity: the thing that would ruin his life the most is for you to help unionize your workplace. do it for the very real benefits to you and your comrades, or do it out of spite, or any combination of either. but it's time, now (overdue, in fact!). tech must become the next major labor battleground. & for those who've already been in the struggle for years: thank you.
The most "promising" tech in that regard is everything that requires huge amounts of computation - because both the required hardware and power are expensive. GPUs are then simply the kind of hardware that is most efficient in those compute-heavy tasks.

@mindpersephone @neil This makes too much sense...
Alternative theory though:
Tech bros only deem research directions worthy that maintain a "moat" - i.e. where success in operating the technology is directly proportional to available capital. (Or put more bluntly: The new tech should be easy to deploy for rich and hard to deploy for poor people)
