if a white man wants to give you a hat meaning?

Answer: The meaning of the proverb is that if a well-off person is offering you help, always check their intent before taking the help.

What does it mean if a man gives you his cowboy hat?

TikTok's Cowboy Hat Rule Is Such a Bold and Flirty Move
The cowboy hat rule is an indirect way of implying that you want to sleep with someone. TikTok is saturated with videos referencing the cowboy hat rule

What does it mean if a cowboy puts his hat on a girl?

Women, however, have a little leeway. A man who lets a woman wear his hat indicates that he's interested in seeing more of her — and if she takes it off him, it means that she'd like to take off some of his other attire, too

So being white means well-off.

What does it say if you substitute the word black for white?

Our nuclear power now depends on mining uranium and processing it to get the isotopes that are fissile. It's unclear how long this could last as practical, some say not too long especially if the whole world starts to depend on it.

the idea of switching to breeder reactors has been around since the beginning. The below googling is a truncated text that should start with "... our energy resource options are derived either directly from sunlight (solar, wind, hydro, biofuel), by digging up fossilized organic matter (coal, oil, gas), or from accessing primordial energy (nuclear fission, geothermal, tidal, fusion). These are all limited in quantity. Some will last us about as long as the sun, while others may run out soon and are thus not sustainable."

>>>

how long will nuclear fuel last with breeder reactors?

Some will last us about as long as the sun, while others may run out soon and are thus not sustainable. Breeder reactors can power all of humanity for more than 4 billion years

A breeder reactor creates Plutonium.

So I thought of the dwarf Pluto.

One of Pluto's five moons are called Charon.


I really like the music too.


There's a reason Pluto and their derivatives include the name Pluto.

I don't know but if a Black guy gives you his *cowboy* hat, it's pretty clear what's up

I heard the white guy/hat thing somewhere and googled it. The other stuff just came up below on 'people also ask'

So it could be a "cowboy" is well-off.

Were wooden nickels ever real?

The genuine wooden nickels actually became legal tender somewhat during the Great Depression in some towns when there was a coin shortage. The first wooden nickel was made in the denomination of a five-cent coin made of shingle in 1866

Why do people say don't take any wooden nickels?

This saying goes back to 1915 and probably began simply as a humorous warning to country folk going to the city not to be taken in by city slickers trying to pay them off with wooden nickels.

why is AI an existential threat?

AI is an existential threat because of the unlikelihood that humans will be able to control an AGI/ASI once it appears. The AI may intentionally or, more likely, unintentionally wipe out humanity or lock humans into a perpetual dystopia.
__

What is AGI vs AI vs ASI?

Narrow AI vs. General AI vs. Super AI
Artificial narrow intelligence (ANI): AI with a narrow range of abilities. Artificial general intelligence (AGI): AI on par with human capabilities. Artificial superintelligence (ASI): AI that surpasses human intelligence

An attempt to mimic a human being (or even God) including consciousness.

They'll never be able to do it.

Just simulating a human conscience would be impossible for us.


I'd say grossly overestimated and over-hyped.

I agree.

A psychopath (one having no effective conscience), although they'll try to create a working conscience (humorous irony).
