Apropos the edit: No you’re not getting away with this. The linked article is copy pasted from the Reuters article. It is the Reuters article.
So what you’re taking issue with is one of the most reputable Western news sources doing their job, as clinically and unbiasedly as they always do. They don’t editorialize.
You are acting like one of those Russia bots in the comment sections that we all are so familiar with.
MOSCOW, May 18 (Reuters) - The founder of the Telegram messaging app said on Sunday he had refused a request by a Western government, which he did not name but appeared to imply was France, to silence conservative voices in Romania ahead of a presidential election run-off there.
The story is identical to the one on reuters.com. There is no propagandistic phrasing of things, the article states what different parties claim, and refers to the French foreign ministry, which makes it undoubtably relevant. I don’t know how that can be possibly misconstrued as biased or factually shakey.
So thank you for eurofied mccarthyism. Really doesn’t make it any easier to navigate around Russian propaganda when you pollute the information ecosystem. And also voids your reasonable criticism of Telegram and Durov BTW.
Maybe criticize Durov then instead?
I mean sure but I really wouldn’t like a random foreign country requesting cencorship to sway my elections even if it was to combat bad things™. Though it’s not like Russia isn’t doing the same thing too.
Yeah but that’s not what we are expecting people to do.
In our extremely complicated world, most thinking relies on trusting sources. You can’t independently study and derive most things.
Otherwise everybody should do their own research about vaccines. But the reasonable thing is to trust a lot of other, more knowledgeable people.
Yeah sure buddy.
Have you tried to shoehorn real life stuff into mathematical notation? It is restrictive. You have pre-defined strict boxes that don’t have blurry lines. Free form thoughts are a lot more flexible than that.
Consistency is restrictive. I don’t know why you take issue with that.
Things are weirder than they seem on the surface.
A math professor collegue of mine calls extremely restrictive use of language ”rigor”, for example.
Independent thought? All relevant thought is highly dependent of other people and their thoughts.
That’s exactly why I bring this up. Having systems that teach people to think in a similar way enable us to build complex stuff and have a modern society.
That’s why it’s really weird to hear this ”people should think for themselves” criticism of AI. It’s a similar justification to antivaxxers saying you ”should do your own research”.
Surely there are better reasons to oppose AI?
People haven’t ”thought for themselves” since the printing press was invented. You gotta be more specific than that.
Some of the more complex proofs might be wrong just because so few understand them, and the ones who do might have made mistakes.
Hell, I’ll trust a math result much more if it’s backed up by empirical evidence from eg. engineering or physics.
Don’t know if that counts as being ”in math” by OPs definition.
While I find it cool when AI is being used for something useful, this article has a suspicious amount of AI optimism. I’d like to hear a bit less uncritical perspective
That’s what the wikipedia article might say but there are definitely studies on the long term effects of cannabis use: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=fi&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=long+term+effects+of+cannabis
There are very few cons, all the negative effects of cannabis can be better handled when it’s legal.
Yes? What the hell are you talking about
Pakollinen paikkavaraus joka pitää ostaa erikseen on kyllä erikoinen konsepti. Toki varmaan teknististä syistä mutta pohjoismaissa on tottunut siihen ettei tartte miettiä paikkavarausta ollenkaan.
For small-scale stuff like that it will surely work. It’s unclear if it scales to youtube volumes. Maybe it doesn’t have to though, small scale stuff is valuable too.
Hosting video requires a lot more resources than hosting text, hyperlinks, or even pictures. It might be too much for individuals to self host video on a scale that could even distantly resemble how we use youtube today.
Then again, maybe there are ways to make that burden smaller. IIRC Peertube does do some p2p stuff to try and share the burden a bit but I’ve also heard that it’s not really feasible to rely on that to scale.
I truly do not understand this… it’s a niche QA forum
You spread misinformation and somehow you’re also the victim here.
