  • Gig work is just turning the poor class into servants. And adding further debt to other poors trying to use these services.

  • I'm not against delivering services. Just gig jobs.

    Lots of people really need these. Like disabled people and the elderly.

    But those two groups are least able to afford it.

  • Psychopathy is a combination of genetics and environmental factors. Genetics does not cause this condition. You can have the genes associated with higher prevalence but that does not mean you will have it.This is why eugenics for behavioral or personality factors is irrelevant.

    Also these are not necessarily hereditary but likely are common mutations that will persist in the gene pool regardless if current people with said gene are sterilized.

    Genetic research, not to sound pretentious, is largely misunderstood.

    When a study says genetics are 30%. It means genetics account for 30% of the variance.

    The variance is not "effect". Or how much a gene contributed to the trait.

    It's a bit more complicated. But to make a simple example.

    Let's think of height.

    Let's say someone has a gene(s) for being tall.

    But the person grew up malnourished. It doesnt matter, the kid won't be tall. But will the kid be taller than other malnourished kids with out the gene. ? Probably. But it's hard to say by how much.

    Will the kid be taller than other kids that werent malnourished.

    Maybe. Maybe not.If extreme malnourished, the answer is no.

    Ultimately the environment determines how much effect a gene(s) can determine a trait.

    That's why you can't measure a general effect % from a gene(s).

    Instead we measure how much variation in a group of people with a given trait is predicted by a gene.

    "The wiggle room". A gene is best thought of as the limits of a trait. Each extreme.

    When it's in optimal environment to be expressed and when it's in the most restricted environment to be expressed.

    Even in average environments, genetics still usually doesn't account for more that 30-40% of the variance for people who score within 1 standard deviation of the mean/average of a trait. And that number declines the farther you get from the mean.

    And also most genetics don't score that high. Very few are as high as 30%.

  • The system creates these bad people.

    You have to stop the cause.

    It's not genetics.

    Just look at Vivian Musk. Nothing like her father.

  • I've also had some bad experiences with taxi services. So I totally get that. It's just too bad that instead of improving their service and fees, that they just got replaced with gig work .

    I've always heard it said that you can't really be an ethical consumer in capitalism.

    We often don't have ethical alternatives.

  • No. The environment has to be changed.

    We can stop promoting the wrong people.We can have harsh penalties for lying. Exploitation

    In the Netherlands, any company found to be un ethical business are barred from getting government contracts.

    Also companies with better employee benefits, unions, and pay are prioritized for government contracts.

    That's how to combat the problem.

    But in the u.s and most of the world. The most ruthless gets the contact. The one that lies the most. Defrauds. Exploits. They get the contacts for decades.

    Most of musk's and palantir money is from u.s tax payers.

  • There is no evidence that psychopathy is determined by a gene.

    Like most human traits, the environment makes a bigger impact on outcomes.

    Until we as a society/species stop rewarding psychopathy , things will keep ending up here.

    Genetics are irrelevant.

    However I do agree that capitalism cannot work.

    It is inevitable destruction.

    Also pretty sure capitalism wasn't the structure during French revolution. Wasn't it serfdom ?

    I mean. That's almost the same. But yeah.

  • Struggling to properly paint roses

    Jump

  • A few years back I was trying to learn to draw/paint crysanthemums.

    Here is an image of how I practiced the sketch of the flower. I practiced quite a bit until I felt like I had a strong mental image and skill to project how the layers of petals and folding would work.

    I realize this isn't the kind of flowers you are doing but maybe my process will help you visualize how the flower petals fall.

    I've used this for peonies. Similar structure to roses. It's the same basic technique.

  • It's like "failure to thrive" seen in newborn orphans.

    Without care and stimulation to live, the will stops. And then they loose appetite. Don't move around. Go quiet.

    And just wither away. It's a very sad state to see a human in when it's preventable.

  • I actually semi agree with this post.

    But parents also need to make an effort.

    I got all 3 of my nieces a tablet over the years for bdays. I set them up. Turned on parental controls before I gave it to them. It was pretty easy.

  • You realize it's just stolen free 3d models that are slightly altered and smoothed so they look like blobs. ?

    Have you actually pulled up the meshes of ai 3d models. ?

    I suggest giving that a try.

    Ai is just theft. It can't be better than a human. It can only steal from humans and slightly alter so it looks new when in fact it's just mashing two things together. Two things made by humans.

    If you have ever done 3d modeling yourself you will understand how absurd it is to believe an AI could do anything of quality.
