An ad for AI West (May 4-6 1998), in black and red. Up top, the beveled logo, with the red call to action: "Plan Now To Attend" Below, the full name: "The Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Computer Technology Conference and Exhibition" A full page red heading declares, "The ONLY West Coast Conference/Exhibition on ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE in 1988!" Smaller headings in the dense text emphasize The Conference ("Emphasis will be on COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS..." "32 Technical Sessions and 12 Tutorials are planned"), The Exhibitions ("Leading suppliers will be displaying their latest equipment..."), Who Should Attend ("Corporate Executives, Computer Systems Designers, Office Automation Specialists..."), Organized By (Tower Conference Management, DM Data, Applied Artificial Inteligence, Society for Computer Simulation, PC AI, Spang-Robinson Report).

https://www.achrafkassioui.com/library/David%20Goodstein%20-%20States%20of%20Matter.pdf The opening paragraph to Goodstein's textbook, "States of Matter" "Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on his work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics. Perhaps it will be wise to approach the subject cautiously."

Every normie that screams about the evils of technology is directionally right, more or less, right now because they understand the predominant sentiment of the people who wish to rule us like slaves. You should probably help fix that. Sorry!
fuck, I’m sorry, I can’t compete with this
I am overjoyed to see that this picture is still exactly where I left it on the internet and nobody has noticed.
To be fair, who among us hasn't made plans that snuck up on us unexpectedly, leaving hundreds of people entrusted to our care stranded overseas as bombs rain down on 10 countries, closing airports and sending energy prices soaring worldwide, and instantly destroying billions in market value?
teachers are part of the proletariat
It's so pathetic that the morons of tech -- a sector full of morons -- are **just now** realizing that the fantastical amount of compute they've been consuming is not sustainable as a business model.
I've only been saying this for ages; but, of course, I'm a killjoy and am just ignored.
