> i also wonder why they dont fight for human rights instead of animal rights.

that's like saying "I wonder why you're volunteering at an animal shelter instead of a homeless shelter". a large majority of the population isn't doing either. it's bonkers to criticize the people actually doing something about any injustice in the world. i bet most people working for either cause have done more than you or i will ever do in advancing rights for any species, human or non-human

hopefully animal testing alternatives keep innovating enough that they, like some renewable energy sources today, become cheaper to make use of than their incumbents

Pareto frontier lines for AI are great but where are the Pareto planes?

Pareto frontier lines are used a lot for comparing tradeoffs between two different attributes in AI models. I want to be able to see the Pareto frontier planes for 3 attributes (which probably look closer to a bumpy dome, similar to how pareto lines are actually more like bumpy curves). And although you wouldn't be able to visualize a pareto cube/tesseract for 4+ attributes, it might still be...

i'm a junior (a little over 3 yrs xp, some might consider that low senior), and never experienced pre-2023 job market, so i don't really have much to compare the market over the last couple years to. fortunately i had 1-2 years where I didn't use much ai. i don't see my company laying me off in the foreseeable future, but I don't have great pay either. over the last few months i've been getting a few recruiter emails every month, sometimes every week. about 50% are not very applicable to my experience

ai or not, i've always wanted to start my own business, and ai likely will make that easier (maybe)

“I think people shouldn’t be displaced from their neighborhoods because of lack of affordability”

I didn’t mention gentrification in the above sentence. Does that mean I’m ignoring the problem?

Since so much of land value is in downtowns, in a theoretical shift to land value tax, most of the increased land value revenue would come from vacant and underdeveloped parcels downtown. The median tax burden on single or multi family homes would actually be reduced. An example is this model of Spokane: https://landeconomics.org/reports/spokane-report#:~:text=sin...

And a lot of the time, it’s those truly rich people who own those vacant/underdeveloped parcels in downtowns.
