Too bad this is science fiction that's widely spread and completely false.
A more accurate perspective (as true then as it is now): "[Q]uestion I am often asked is why there are so few quantum algorithms known that offer speed-up over classical algorithms. The answer I usually give is that I don’t know, but that I can think of two possible reasons that this might be the case. The first possible reason is that quantum computers operate in a manner so different from classical computers that our techniques for designing algorithms and our intuitions for understanding the process of computation no longer work. The second reason is that there really might be relatively few problems for which quantum computers can offer a substantial speed-up over classical computers, and we may have already discovered many or all of the important techniques for constructing quantum algorithms."

Date: March 24th, 2019 11:15 AM Author: Crawly juggernaut affirmative action Thiel is right, the lack of breakthroughs is depressing.
We went from an incorrect model of the atom in ~1910 to a fusion bomb in less than 50 years.
Went from a jury-rigged glider in ~1900 to supersonic flight and space travel in about 60 years.
But we can't even come up with a couple more algorithms (JUST in principle because we dont even have the hardware to run them) for quantum computers.
We are in a state of decline, even if the momentum will carry science forward for another couple decades. |

What Hegel would have called “Master” technologies. The barbarian works to earn the idleness which the luckier savage gets for free.
Barbarian technologies, like savage technologies, are fundamentally sustainable, since using them tends to fulfill immediate needs rather than causing wealth accumulation.
The mark of “civilization” is the replacement of sustainable predatory patterns of life based on immediate consumption with unsustainable non-predatory ones based on accumulation.
................
Civilized cultures create different types of technology compared to barbarian cultures. What Hegel would have called “Slave” technologies. Technologies that keep you working harder and harder to accumulate stuff.
Civilization is the opposite of idleness. It is a treadmill of increasing industriousness and productivity. But the effects are inevitable. As you settle down and accumulate stuff, the risks of existence gradually decrease and the surpluses available for hedonism increase. The net effect of both is that less actual thinking, but more work, is required to exist.
To peek ahead a bit, settled civilization is a fundamentally Gollumizing force. It makes you comfortable, stupid and addicted to the security and accumulated fruits of your labor."

Date: March 23rd, 2019 9:15 PM Author: Zippy Beady-eyed Legal Warrant Double Fault he thinks the only area that's seen any growth is information technology. coincidentally this has also been the least regulated.
if you look back at how people in the 1950s imagined today would be, they imagined tremendous advances in all areas, not just computers. supercheap pollution-free energy, superfast transport, colonies on moons and planets, star travel.
instead: we have 100 year old subways that barely work, there's been no speed innovation in travel besides the shuttered concorde, people have pushed relentlessly to shut down nuclear energy plants... nixon declared a war on cancer in 1971 and declared that it would be beaten by the bicentennial. a definite, optimistic plan like this would be unthinkable from a public official.
what happened? is it cultural? is it the reddit-tier cynicism and nihilism that makes everyone sound like a mewling participant in an Atlas Shrugged cocktail party? is it excessive regulation? |

Furthermore the kind of regulation you're talking about only happens in developed countries. If someone really did have a cure for cancer, and the US govt was banning it, they could set up a clinic in Mexico. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4227358&forum_id=2#37979479) |

Date: July 20th, 2019 12:39 AM Author: pearl stubborn plaza 1) end of Pax Americana with the oil crisis and formation of OPEC in the 70s, followed closely by 2) laffer curve economics became dogma, which caused a complete freeze of income for everyone outside of the top 10% and the only real growth is in the top .1%, 3) amazing cheap new drugs come on the scene, first crack, then meth, then oxy and opioids, and poors with no future can be pacified by that and 4) an explosion of C- entertainment content (with occasional moments of genius interspersed) gets rolled out to the US and eventually the rest of the world. So you have lots of dumb stuff for dumbs and you defang the smarts by making them self-segregate and pride themselves on their cultural superiority and connoisseurship, which becomes a key part of their identity formation as they emerge as the laboring class of the knowledge/information economy. You go from the early 70s when Hollywood was in its all time nadir and there were three tv channels to the 80s blockbusters and the advent of cable, then the takeover of cable and video games in the 90s making several hundred options available to consumers at all times, and then the internet which became infinity content.
