Did you read to the end? I said the singularity could create a pantheistic “one” where the whole of being and existence is so tightly interconnected that the differences between individual beings asymptotically approaches irrelevance. So honestly, I would say we're in agreement for the most part.

At least until Shinji decides to gently caress the whole thing up by not becoming one with Giant Rei/Lilith and he ends up trying to choke Asuka after the Apocalypse because Justine stole this idea from Evangelion.

Lol at those github repos. I know that type of coder. The worst type of coder - making useless tech toys that aren't even impressive, and when they have to do something actually real they make a loving mess that no one but them understands, doesn't follow industry standards, etc. The "genius", yes, the worst possible type of developer you can hire into the team as a leader. I made the mistake of hiring a similar rear end in a top hat once. Couldn't work in a team to save his life and all the code he pumped out was the kind of terrible quality you would expect from the Quake 1 mods I coded when I was 10. Also aggravated everyone in the loving company to the point that everyone hated his guts.

Singularity transhumanism is really dumb, its like they haven't considered the issue of early adoption.

If the FDA ever approved invasive brain implants for recreational use (lol), who would want to get stuck with the buggy first version?

Of course Ancaps have already addressed the FDA issue.

It's because they think they're super hot poo poo and don't take criticism, meanwhile criticism is how you get better so while everyone has developed their skills they're still stuck with bad habits and social behaviors they were doing when they were teenagers.




e: techies should be the aristocracy because we're the best; the rich people that rule the world already will just acquiesce to our superiority
