I think the original post/image kinda was, but the response/retweet doesn't seem like it

Fun fact the LessWrong guy Yudkowsky who was/is an influential person in silicon valley wrote one of the most well known Harry Potter fanfics. At some point he apparently tried to get JK Rowling's permission to publish it.

My mom shows me AI generated material from Facebook all the time, a class or course would be great

I don't really agree. A lot of more complex patterns that were present in old content still persists in new AI generated material. I think the knowledge won't be completely outdated as time goes on. Besides, there are plenty of PSA's about scams despite those also always evolving. It's still worth teaching people about to deal with things now.

It's not as insane because there is a significant difference between liquid and illiquid assets in how these can affect the world. However, regardless of how it compares, people owning more than a billion is one more sign our global economic system is very broken (and trillion even more so).

An interesting point for me was that they acknowledged the flaws in their previous benchmarks.

We owe a word on durability. The previous round of benchmark results ran with fsync disabled for every engine - leaving each database's writes in the OS page cache rather than flushed to disk. Every database in the comparison ran with the same setting, so nothing was being "fudged" relative to the other engines, but we didn't make the setting explicit, and the headline numbers ended up describing a workload that most production deployments would not likely run.This round is different. Every database in these benchmarks runs with full disk durability enabled - fsync on, WAL flushed on every commit, no buffered writes hiding behind the page cache. The configuration files for each engine are checked into the  so anyone can audit them. The numbers above are what each engine sustains when every committed transaction is on disk before the client gets an acknowledgement. That's slower than the cache-friendly numbers you'll find in some marketing posts, ours included, but it's the only honest way to compare databases that are going to outlive a power outage.

For anyone else that is interested in what came of him:

Xu was expelled from the CCP and sentenced to five years in prison. He lived the rest of his life exiled from Beijing and died in 2021 at the age of 85.

If people act like that on 196, please report it

Wouldn't it be better to have more specific tags like movies? e.g. "Sexual content", "Gore", "Death", "Violence" or for content that you truly want to avoid; "US Politics".

Better than coal or oil, it might even result in more R&D into reactor designs.
