I actually read their book that they produced about mental models. It was interesting, but I wish there were games or behaviors that allowed me to actually use the models taught

I wonder if this kind of thinking caused them to adapt to Christianity.

Background / context from Ars Technica:

"Additionally, Blue Origin [CEO Jeff Bezos] this month finalized the hire of Austin Murnane as a senior legal counsel. Formerly an attorney at Latham & Watkins in New York, Murnane has expertise in the legal aspects of space resources. His background suggests that Blue Origin may assert that the resources of space belong to no one and that the company may stake claims to resources on the Moon and elsewhere.

In the Fordham International Law Journal, Murnane wrote a 40-page article arguing that, for modern-day prospectors—in the form of commercial space companies—the Moon, asteroids, and other bodies in the Solar System should be free of control from terrestrial governments or the United Nations and the Outer Space Treaty.

"If the Outer Space Treaty is read to have established UN sovereignty in space, it would make that organization the master of all bodies outside of Earth's atmosphere," Murnane wrote. "When one considers the vast multitude of celestial bodies in Earth's Solar System, and further notes that there are probably more than one hundred billion stars in our galaxy, plus untold millions of other galaxies in the universe, such a claim is breathtakingly arrogant."

Makes me wonder if AR will be more like a poor thing and space travel a rich thing.

This also reminds me of how I encountered three.js yesterday. If anyone has any advice or cool tutorials please let me know

Well we are not finished with that sect of the NY subway because now we have workers rights. And a lot of industrial jobs are used to fund blue collar workers. If you want things built faster then use more AI and less humans and see how that turns out. Most blue collar workers I believe are conservative as well. It’s a bipartisan effort

Hate how they use the term ‘Blacks’. Seems as if they allow ‘whites’ to stand from a place of objectivity and demand that journalist do too. CNN are moronic

Switzerland was neutral during WWII but still sold stuff to Deutschland.
