If the output is low enough and in the same frequency range as some other consumer devices they could claim that they're at least as safe as a cell phone for example.

Looks like they have not provided any public access. Seems to be an internal thing right now.

Same. I even signed up thinking there would be an obvious way to reach the demo, but didn't find one.

... or circumstances now select for "high agency" humans, and those humans propagate.

Not sure why we think normal evolution wouldn't just route around such problems.

Everyone, every last one of us, does this every single day, all day, and only occasionally do we deviate to check ourselves, and often then it's to save face.

A Nobel prize was given for related research to Daniel Kahneman.

If you think it doesn't apply to you, you're definitely wrong.

> If that happens, the spacecraft will turn off all non-essential systems to conserve power and remain in flight.

Uhhhhhh...

I guess they mean "in operation"? Not sure how it could do anything but remain in flight.

I'm surprised you've not heard of the author (Sean Baxter). He's pretty well known among people who are interested in c++ standards proposals.

He single handedly wrote his own C++ front-end and then proceeded to implement a butt load of extensions which other members of the committees poo-pood as being to hard to implement in the compiler.

Every couple of weeks he implements something new. He's a real joy to follow.

I really hate when people use very uncommon terms without defining them. (or sometimes even people's names)

It's not that I couldn't make a guess based on context, but it's distracting, and I feel like my eyes must have skipped over something and I often keep going back over the text to see what I must have missed reading.

I imagine this is sometimes caused by sloppy editing, especially when they refer to a last name of a person who has yet to be introduced in the article, but I think sometimes it's a deliberate choice and I object.

I wonder if cheapish EVTOL travel might make a difference here. I.e. if CEOs effective travel time is reduced, does that affect headquarter location selection.

Do you ever talk to yourself silently? How fast do you read?

Jinx.

Have you considered explicitly using weed or shrooms as an on-ramp to exercising this ability? You could devote some time and slowly build up your ability.

Just as you can learn to wiggle your toes independently, or play the piano, or learn a new language, which require wiring new pathways, it's possible to learn to wire new pathways to non-motor areas of your brain. But it likely requires the same amount of effort.

I believe that developing the ability to mentally visualize more vividly is the explicit goal of some certain kinds of meditation. If you're interested you might look into "fire kasina".

But how would we know though right? I mean without having an A/B comparison.

Sure it didn't stop the destruction, but I don't think that was ever in the cards. But it might have helped by some amount even if small. 1%? 2%? 6%?

If it reduced destruction by 2%, would that have made the campaign worth it?

I think there's a chance it did do some good in that it was in enough awareness to end up somewhere on a foreign policy agenda higher than it might have otherwise been, and thus policies might have been negotiated in trade agreements, treaties, company due diligence source tracing, etc.

* Try talking to ChatGPT via the voice interface. * Spend time listening to yourself either directly or via recording. Repeat words and sentences which don't quite sound right. Train your ear to attend to the difference between what you say and how it is/would be said by others.

Can you really not imagine how a nation state could get valuable intelligence by having an intimate knowledge of how a large portion of another nation states population is thinking?
