Bomb Shelter Radio - The Night Of The Deadly Bed

Author's note - I've taken to naming some of these articles with the titles of TV show episodes. This one is from the second episode of The Wild Wild West in 1965.

It has been a crunchy week, a lot of mental sand in the gears, and a lot of nerve-fraying news out there. Hopefully during the show tomorrow we will be able to relax a little bit and laugh at life's foibles. The Marvel Cinematic Universe and Big Bang Theory have reached major milestones, and I think we will skip conversation concerning that. Anyway, I ranted on BBT last week, so that would be a repeat... 

You did hear that rant last week?

If not, show archives will be up soon enough.

I hope you will join us this week. You can find the listen and slack links on our website at http://bomb.shelter.radio.am/. See you Thursday!

And now, your moment of WA?

"7-Eleven's Beer And Cider Delivery Service Is Launching In 18 Cities"


Con Amalgamated Beer from "Outland"

The article claims "This is life changing". WAAAAAA? HUH?

Having beer delivered by matter transmission is life changing, this is just passing the buck on how the beer gets to the bomb shelter. 

BTW, we have plenty of cans of chili here in the shelter, we just are missing a can opener.

Pax,
Illya

Due to some real life(tm) issues, Bomb Shelter Radio for Thursday the 20th of February is cancelled. " The paperclip maximizer is the canonical thought experiment showing how an artificial general intelligence, even one designed competently and without malice, could ultimately destroy humanity. The thought experiment shows that AIs with apparently innocuous values could pose an existential threat . " -- Less Wrong Wiki To keep your brains lubricated for next week's show, may I suggest this article concerning AIs manufacturing the humble paperclip? The simulator (game) referenced in the article is amusing and makes you think. https://www.theverge.com/tldr/2017/10/11/16457742/ai-paperclips-thought-experiment-game-frank-lantz And a link to the simulator's author... https://twitter.com/flantz/status/917450884552036353 RELEASE THE HYPNODRONES!

It is 100 seconds to midnight OR Inside the two-minute warning

Be afraid BUT read the article. Be afraid BUT take action. (I know, easier to say than to do) From the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists - Used without permission https://thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/current-time/ " Humanity continues to face two simultaneous existential dangers—nuclear war and climate change—that are compounded by a threat multiplier, cyber-enabled information warfare, that undercuts society’s ability to respond. The international security situation is dire, not just because these threats exist, but because world leaders have allowed the international political infrastructure for managing them to erode."
