hey UP thanks for trippin through my pqueue

Trippin balls!

1)I thought you said it was entirely to do with culture, yet you bring up their appearance. And then mention Herman Cain and Seal, which seems like a non sequitur given your claim about culture-only. Are your claims based on race/ethnicity or not?

2)You must be a very skilled specialist if you can determine someone's intelligence and occupation from their appearance. Which phenotypical traits are you referring to to come to such conclusions?

3)So using slang and goofing off in a hospital at a joyous occasion make people lower class? I'll keep that in mind.

• Obese mother (associated with negative health outcomes for children)
• Mother speaks in a lower class manner. (She says something about "trippin.")
• Mother overall doesn't look intelligent. Her job is probably cognitively simplistic.
• Father speaks in a lower class manner.
• Father's brief visual appearance is consistent or as least doesn't refute the other lower class signals, and the likely low cognitive complexity of his wife the mother of his child lets us to make predictions about him.
• Father's not embarrassed to act lower class in a hospital with his pregnant wife.
None of these things would apply to a sophisticated person like Hermain Cain or Seal.
The future belongs to cognitively complex people. People who don't like to read or improve themselves and have bad values are going to face worse and worse outcomes. Automation and globalization will continue, and being simplistic is no longer of value.

Not a dupe(imo). i quite enjoyed this longer version with all the extra trippin' out, and seeing that they were both ok in the end.

Undeniably cool from a mechanical/robotic engineering standpoint, as is Honda's Asimo, and I applaud the abilities of those able to pull this off, but I can't see past the obvious: this is an unnecessarily-complex and unreliable mode of motion and these humans be ego-trippin about they legs.


It could be useful for carrying heavy loads up stairs and through narrow corridors where wheels or quadrupeds would be less practical. It will be interesting to see what it can do once they get it working on uneven terrain.

On the other hand, if we get brain-computer interfaces working a little better then maybe a future version of these could replace wheelchairs.
