Also Yanukovich supporters in 2014, in Ukraine.
But the problem is, if there’s no political solution to this division, then it’s either revolution or a civil war.

We’re talking ‘leaps’ specifically. Computers were invented in XIX century too. Medicine is at least 1000 years old.

The whole biotech, not only CRISP, vaccines, snake antidotes.

Quantum telecommunication.

Natural language processing.
Speech-to-text, and back. Real-time translations. Even text summarization used to “unsolvable” in 2021.

Drones technology.

Because of the missing coma?

I get the analogy, but in case of VPN my general advice would be to not use VPN.

People who use VPN know exactly why and which.

If we are talking about the average consumer, the point is valid.

Moreover, VPN providers could even perform a man-in-the-middle and swap certificates.

Great series, kudos.

To rephrase the old joke: the S in VIBE coding stands for Security.

I keep reading that MAGA is pedophile-loving, hypocritical, criminal, gun-shooting bloodthirsty scum. Yet I met people who just want to work, raise kids, and spend their vacation in Europe.

You have much more common ground than they want you to think.

…people in their thirties. They were friendly. They were visiting Europe with two cute kids, so I cannot label them unloving, ignorant, stupid, or hypocritical.

Trump doesn’t want to convince you — he doesn’t care about you. He doesn’t care about them either. Trump wants to divide and conquer… 3/4

“Nobody else could — not Biden, not Macron.”
“We’ll see, we don’t have many options,” I answered, unwilling to argue.
“God bless,” the man said.
“Likewise. Enjoy your vacation,” I replied.

What am I trying to tell you?
The couple is MAGA, obviously. They were good-looking, beautiful people… 2/4

To be fair, the Romans were absolutely liberal with religion.
Moreover, they often mixed in their favorite parts of conquered peoples’ religions into their own.

In other words, AI is a convenient excuse for CEOs to fire 5–10% of tech staff, scare the rest into compliance (“fall in line or be fired”), slash salaries and benefits, and offload the work of those laid off onto those who remain.
They also may rehire without employment contract.

...and memory, but we could still be able to mimic AGI well enough for different tasks.

Also, today’s neural networks are already enabler of understanding — for example, protein folding.

Seeing the leaps (and stupidity) made in the last 10–15 years, I avoid making predictions about what's hard

I like this idea I read (I think) in Complexity and Chaos by Dr. Roger White:

Instead of looking for neat formulas (understanding), complexity science builds models that mimic the actual processes, giving us predictive power through simulation.

We might be far from understanding cognition...
