- TeMPOraL 12y agoReminds me of Scott Aaronson's Umeshisms[0]/Malthusianisms[1]. If you don't sometimes over-compress it means you're compressing too little and there's room for improving efficiency. Also, "Why do native speakers of the language you’re studying talk too fast for you to understand them? Because otherwise, they could talk faster and still understand each other."
