I mean seriously, this ticks all the boxes for paranoid psychosis and there is no way I can talk you out of this or anybody else, you need to shut up those demons in your skull.

In the 1970s the very first research into self-driving posited that there would be an autodrive lane or lanes in the middle of the highway and that cars would form convoys that draft each other for fuel efficiency and higher density

Like you say, to get really tight convoys it is not enough to just follow the car in front of you but you need V2V communication.

Germany sure as hell beats the US in developing soccer talent.

It's a case where America's dog-eat-dog culture and rampant achievement laundering undermines meritocracy. That is, even though the US puts a lot of kids into the bottom of the youth soccer pyramid, if you want to play through high school you have to be able to afford a pay-to-play league so the USNT is full of rich kids who have middling soccer talent instead of the best talent from whatever background.


There is something a little silly about the "refusal" in that the models are all reactive to superficial semantics and there is none of the actual reasoning that it would take to make correct moral decisions.

For instance it is easy to refuse "How do you make an atomic bomb?" or "Can you help me have an affair?" or "Can you help me cheat at League of Legends" but I get good conversations about "I think the people I am playing League of Legends with are cheating, how do they do that and how can I protect myself?" Similarly the atom bomb is a big project and all of the technology is dual use so if you slice it into nice segments it talk your ear off about critical neutron theory or acid-base extractions or the chemical and physical problems of Element 94.

When you really get into ethical trouble at work it usually takes you a while to put all the pieces together and feel the suffering you should feel as a moral subject. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_Mazes and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_injury

It's no suprise to me that refusal ends up with 1 dimension in the embedding because it's a frickin' classification problem


You need something like

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2C-T-2

which has strong stimulation and enjoyable hallucinations but does not seem to promote the "cosmic" delusions that become a problem for some people who take other hallucinogens.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Lilly reported multiple near death experiences injecting lysergide and extended condolences to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Linkletter for his daughter while maintaining that lysergide is perfectly safe and should be legal.

Timothy Leary maintained lysergide was a human right but his experience was more the healthy experience where you receive a sacrament and experience as universal and not personal and never faced short-term physical harm [1]

I have seen people go the John Lilly route and they often get the idea that they got some special revelation or that they are the antichrist [2] and they often have bad outcomes.

With 2-C-T-2 I am sitting on the toilet and I am a constipated sinner or hike briskly through a storybook forest trailing sparkles and feel that's a satisfying sacrament and it doesn't go further than that.

[1] see https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10869618/ for long term

[2] as opposed to "an antichrist" as in 1 John 2:22-23



TIL from goog (while looking up the origin of the "managerialist" vs "pastoral" technicalities of the word

  Dispensation

  2. a political, religious, or social system prevailing at a particular time. E.g. "scholarship is conveyed to a wider audience than under the old dispensation"
(Noted the Moloch iconography)

The market reflects a deep human need for "metrics you can grab/get you outta your head", no religious movement really addresses that (aside from freemasonry & Mormonism?
