Do you not see that this is exactly the point? What good is a new bike path if it doesn't lead anywhere? I'm not sure how you see this as a problem of too many bike paths and not too few bike paths Genuinely asking if you can see the merit of this point — as I 100% agree with your premise, and 100% disagree with your conclusion.

If you take out 'unparalleled', the sentence “Hidden meaning transforms unparalleled abstract beauty” makes sense... Generating a sentence from random buzz-words doesn't make it meaningless...

For those downvoting: imagine you look at an abstract painting. It's beautiful, but you don't know what it is. Then someone tells you it's a vulva. Now you can't unsee it. The abstract beauty has been transformed by hidden meaning...

The same goes for "thoughts can influence physical objects." If they couldn't, you wouldn't be able to move your hand to scratch your ass when it gets itchy.

I know what they are trying to say with these sentences and would absolutely get the answers right on their test. But I would get them right because I know what they want for an answer. This is sloppy research, and the correlation between intelligence and correct answers on their test is very likely due to theory of mind and meta-cognitive reasoning...

This article is pseudo-profound bullshit.

The movie is about smart people not breeding. The smart people stoped existing. It wasn't a decision to ignore smart people and listen to dumbasses, there were only dumbasses. The obvious problem with the movie is that it's about eugenics (which doesn't work that way), but your take changes the plot to be about something that it isn't.

They found the smartest person in the world and listened to them to fix their problems... Not at all accurate.

I mean, technically it already has.

How often does the average person really need to do that? Multimodal is where it's at! Drive when you need to, don't when there are alternatives. But alternatives need to exist for that to work, so vote for them.

On the one hand, I agree with a lot of what Sabine has presented here. But on the other hand, that email is sus AF... It proves her point perfectly and there's absolutely no way to verify it. I have to assume that it was written by/for her when weighting it as evidence, as a non-institutional email could have come from literally anyone.

This whole speech ammounts to "You're supposed to be doing it to them! Not to us!"

🫡 Thank you for your service.

Lol yeah I agree. It felt like just a literal read of the translation. Fun to poke at, but subtext is not its forte... So definitely more along the lines of "every accusation is a confession."
