The search term? What is it?
Before killing yourself, it’s your responsibility to kill your children
Something that i think is important to understand about this, and while Grey does mention it, its brief and towards the end, is that this framework isn’t unique to governments. These patterns show up in human organization at basically every level.
So I’m going to push back on the idea that
this is horrible and this system should be abolished
Depending on what “this system” means to you.
I think it’s much more useful to understand the incentives at play and build systems that minimize the damage consolidated power can do, and limit the ability for power to accumulate. That is… very much easier said than done, but I think it’s needed effort.
That’s right.
While the video is a good summary of the framing of the book (the selectorate theory of politics), I still recommend reading the book if you find the topic interesting. They go into a bunch of case studies on how you can apply the framing in wildly different circumstances, and make a very compelling case for how increasing the numbers of participants in a system improves the outcomes for everyone involved.
This video, and the book it’s based on, unironically started my transition from neoliberal to democratic socialist.
Which I think is funny, because I don’t think the authors, Bruce Bueno De Mesquita and Alistair Smith, are particularly leftist.
The keyboard is fine, nothing to write home about. The top plate is in 6 separate bits (on the 16 in anyway) and they’ve got a bit of play, it feels a bit awkward to me, but the trade offs are worth it to me.
Software/firmware has been surprisingly well thought out, including a very clear picture if you try to boot without all the pieces installed.
I’ve had one weird issue with the uefi boot, but that was due to using an old install media, I think.
Fair enough
My only real complaint is that “have an ai do it” isn’t a great suggestion though; an ai wil have the same bias as whoever developed it.
I bought a framework recently. Its not perfect, but I’ve been quite happy with it.
so the “stupid fucking robot” is correct?
Probably simply that they are done with it (mono specifically, and possibly .net framework in the long run)
Reality has a left leaning bias
This is functionally spending money on the climate crisis, on the side of the crisis.
That isn’t how I interpret the ready action. And yeah, there should be a save of some sort even if it isn’t RAW, but I think I’d allow it out at my table, it’s creative and fun.
Edit: I reread the rule, there is language for precasting the spell. I stil thinkl it’d be more fun to find a way to hide it, like a stealth check or similar.
Either way, the fact that casting a spell is an action isn’t really a problem here
Ah, thanks.
For anyone coming later, the first half of the video is superfluous to the meme, start at 3:18. I agree with the video’s interpretation of the first ruling, that that would be a reasonable use of a ready action.
Otherwise, yeah, the meme is spot on.
What is this referencing?
Here I thought you were going to bring up the “I’m not a cat” guy
Oh no, this’ll definitely get me killed
