@adiz @icedquinn @m0xEE @miscbrains I don't know, I think walling it off would be a case where the cure is worse than the disease.

I sure as hell don't want to participate in collective decision-making with regards to servers or individual users; nobody likes how I run FSE, nobody's ever liked it.

hfs

That would be how you maxed out Brave; presumably all the characters?

Ha, frog, when I was grinding doing something like that (like the degenerator/level-up to drop a character to level 1 as a Calculator so I could bring her back to 99 as a ninja and see how high her speed was), I'd frog the guy. Chicken is more reliable but Chicken recovers over time.

> So by consciousness, I probably mean, in context, one akin to human consciousness, which is really the kind of thing you have to experience yourself.

And you can't verify it; you can't be certain another human is conscious, which means you can't be certain whether a machine is or not.

> I one had a decent linguistics professor who told me "to know the name is to forget the thing."

I like this.

> Forgive me, I'm really not trying to be nebulous, but I think you can see the difficulty is using but one part of the phenomena, language, to capture the whole.

Well, yeah, I don't think anyone thinks the Turing Test is the best way to measure consciousness. But what I was getting at is there exists no way to measure consciousness.

A lot of stuff I have to say about AI, Hamming already said better, and with more authority, as he was Hamming. Here are his lectures on AI.

It speaks of the binary flatness of not only mainstream political discourse, also of the attached worldview. Middle Easterners cannot have (like all human groups) inherently good and bad tendencies to various degrees, no they must be inherently good, but just happen to look like demons from hell, which is why they're misunderstood :clownworld:

This Chinese man with Japanese citizenship is running to become Mayor of Atami. His anti-Japan statements are causing quite a stir in Japanese X. The issue, no ethnically Japanese person is running against him.

FFT was one of the first games I completely broke. I realized you could level to 99 without progressing the story past the first zone.

So I did.
