The gap between āIāll forward thisā and āYouāre hiredā is way too large to be smugposting about this.

Any country that would invade the US isnāt going to be one following the Conventions.
Under the Geneva Convention, if you engage in wartime activities as a civilian, you are an unlawful combatant and can be tried by any member of the invading army who captures you (drumhead tribunal, no appeal) and summarily executed. You're the equivalent of a spy or terrorist,

š¤ Gork, give me a rank-ordered list from most to least effective of how one can kill an embodied egregore.
@St_Rev @literalbanana I've been arguing for 30 years that the best way to explain the growth of government, NGOs, everything since c 1700 is that industrialization creates, very literally, surplus calories, and we have been witnessing evolution of EMBODIED egregores (organizations) to eat them.

Iām sorry but no one cares anymore because we all know this from her first election and basically no one has done anything about it except fundraise off of it. Wake me up when sheās deported. Until then Iām sick of hearing about empty threats.

So my old joke about the man who mistook his ass for a hat applies to Oliver Sacks.
Bombshell: Oliver Sacks (a humane man & a fine essayist) made up many of the details in his famous case studies, deluding neuroscientists, psychologists, & general readers for decades. The man who mistook his wife for a hat? The autistic twins who generated multi-digit prime

Having thought about for a while, I am now rooting for JMU to win the Championship because that is, hands down, the funniest possible outcome that will upset the most people. Tulane is also acceptable.

Dan Simmonsā Hyperion has the AI TechnoCore using people as compute, so my head canon is the simulation was run (at least partially) on the wetware of the people in it.
Thinking back, the Matrix was a thermodynamic nightmare. The Carnot efficiency of humans for energy production is laughably bad. We should have been using their brains for distributed compute.

I am skeptical that Cory has come up with a new argument or a new way of thinking about a problem since heās never managed it before.
