>derides Christianity
>ends post with one of the most Christian statements one could find: "only truth can get us out"
this keeps happening
It’s sad how many of the people who see the decline of Western civilization fall back into Christianity.
To me, Christianity feels like a psy-op designed over millennia to satisfy the craving to submit.
And “noble” lies are what got us into this mess; only truth can get us out.

btw vgr has stated that his essays will be mostly or fully generated from now on
this means you do not have to actually read this, instead you can have your own model isolate the core points and spare yourself from reading gptslop
The best, most comprehensive take on AI I’ve read. After a year of confusion and fear about the future, I finished it feeling like a weight had physically lifted.
It’s long. Make the time.
@vgr is undefeated.

we absolutely should in fact genetically engineer bioluminescent plants & trees and then completely eradicate the affront to God that is LED street lights from the face of the Earth
How come it's always war and never like road work. Can we genetically engineer some giraffes for construction projects?

Olympic Gold medalist Alysa Liu just revealed she was one of the lead investors in the $200M seed round of the genetically engineered war dogs startup, Warhound.
"80% of the US military's dog supply comes from Europe, and the supply is dwindling. I knew I had to act for us to maintain dog sovereignty" she told Teen Vogue.

can't help but wonder how many "genius"/genius kids were lost to the school system because they lacked a caretaker who a) believed in them b) were independent-minded enough to continue to do so against institutional consensus
my aunt constantly told everyone that her underperforming son was actually a genius but the school system couldn’t handle him (which i thought was cope at the time)
turns out she was basically right and he engineers nuclear reactors now

"Be a gatekeeper of your heart and let no thought in without questioning it. Examine every single thought one by one and ask it: ‘Are you one of ours or one of theirs?’"
— Evagrius Ponticus, Letter 11
If you are a neurotic/anxious person, you must ignore most of your worries.
91.4% of them never come true.
