The Abject Failure of Self Driving Cars

In 2014 Elon Musk said self driving cares would be available in five to six years, that was ten years ago. In 2016 Musk announced that all Teslas built and 2016 and after had the hardware necessary for fully autonomous driving, eight years ago.

On the Conflict in Palestine

Before I start there is something that must be said: Israel does not represent the Jewish peoples (yes peoples, plural), Israel only represents Israel. People outside of Israel who are culturally, ethnically and/or religiously Jewish are not represented by the Israeli government, Israeli people, or the actions of Israel. And those three are different categories....

“AI” is Already Failing

At the risk of giving techno fetishists a "told ya so!" I'm going to call it: The algorithms falsely advertised as "AIs" are already failing. I've already pointed how unimpressive "AI art" is, I've put the hype for "AI" in perspective of past tech failures, and I've pointed out how it is doomed. The doom...

100 Hour Games are 90 Hours too Long

Religion, tradition, and how one was raised

Religion, tradition, and how one was raised, are nothing more than excuses for immoral behavior. These are not reasons, these are not logical or rational, they are just pathetic excuses. All ideas stand or fall on their own, everything else are just excuses for immoral behavior. Reason, logic, and evidence are reasons, not the word...

Age Kills Wisdom

“Age brings wisdom”, as the old saying says, another old saying is “fools think they are wise”. When the argument of "age brings wisdom" is made by older people, it can only be seen as claiming to have wisdom, but if the other saying is true then that claim of wisdom is a fool's claim....

The Best Argument for Universal Basic Income is Capitalism.

A universal basic income (UBI) is a program in which every citizen of a country, or even every documented person in the country, receives a monthly income from the government. This income is given regardless of income and job status. For example: each person receives $1000 dollars a month to all people over 18-years-old. This...

Evil is Stupid and Stupidity is Evil

What is evil? What makes an action evil? What makes a person evil? What makes a person evil? Even moral philosophers struggle with these questions. There is no real consensus but there are some commonalities between all arguments, the number one commonality being that evil people harm others. Stupidity can harm others, in fact stupidity...
