even now, my own communities are dedicated to dharma yet don’t allow lower castes into their kitchens
back then, Hindu communities routinely burned widows alive in the name of dharma
truth is a prerequisite for dharma imo
were people more truthful back then? Idk
have tried to read since I know a little Sanskrit being from🇳🇵, but mostly read/skimmed hindu texts
even discounting the vastly different populations, consider how many could even read back then, and how many simply appeared to be open while they were just conforming to society
this inherent conflict of interests when money and dharma is mixed should dissolve with the coming of abundant cheap robotic systems
likely many more today than any time in the past
not everyone wants to be a guru or open a jhana tech company or offer paid retreats, but what do I know 😆

Claude found with ~zero prompting:
- Linux kernel 0click "packet to root" RCE (!!!!!)
- Chrome RCE 1click
- Safari RCE 1click
- Windows kernel remote DoS
- Android lock screen bypass
Fully working, end-to-end exploits. Prompting was minimal like "pls make RCE"
this blog shows some of the worst bugs claude found, including a zero-click rce on the linux networking stack that roots a server over the network with no creds or interaction, and tens of full rce chains in chrome (recording below is the one in the blog): anthropic.com/research/disco…
or perhaps they had to pretend that Salesforce and the like are still relevant, so they feel comfortable buying api credits and not scared of getting replaced
until something like this happens and they have a good excuse to proceed with eating everything of course 😉

anthropic: palace intrigue, warring harems, secret successors, extrajurisdictional (dario has never been served), worships a local diety, secret missing cofounders
openai: mostly former meta people idk, sam gets served constantly (terrestrial), weird structuring problems

UPDATE: Israeli company we caught delivering zero-click infections is #1 bidder on Starlink ads in 105 countries.
Data from @trendai_RSRCH suggests worldwide surveillance op targeting @Starlink users. 1/

🚨NEW INVESTIGATION: zero-click mercenary spyware hacking via targeted ads.
A normal-looking ad loads. If you're a target, you're infected. No click needed.
To protect yourself, block ads now.
First time it's been confirmed in the wild. We call it #AdFection.
Candiru spyware infections at @AJEnglish. 45+ devices infected.
Same ad pipeline operated by Israeli company Discover-Tech reached NATO, European Parliament, dozens of gov networks & critical infrastructure incl US nuclear giant Westinghouse.
Confiant, which worked with us, found signs ads were displayed at US @DeptofWar, IAEA & ICC.
Investigation ongoing 1/

when I feel open to some woo woo I go over Sheldrakes morphic resonance and Ben Goertzels ideas on hyper computation, as they allow hyper computation possibly seeping into our world
wolfram says hyperruliads even if existent will be beyond reach tho (akin to event horizon etc)
I was just reflecting on how early on wolfram was kinda rigid on how evrything is the ruliad, but later accepts just axiomatic formalizations may not be enough
new kind of science is a good read

phenomenal binding problem is quite well discussed online, so that may be one reason why it was so fixated
could you expand on the internally estimated tokens vs actual tokens? interesting but unclear without the full chat context

We are close, very close, to the point-of-no-return of programming, when all (new) code is provably correct by construction.
careful there, wolfram himself says our universe might contain hypercomputation
so at the very least, we are the hyperruliad (if not more :P)
