We have one! This is it. Put your name and a public key in your profile. It’s great here. Stay awhile.

Based on the original strain. Not that I would want to argue. There are several nations that do not recommend vaccination for younger people. They could be wrong of course, but to be so certain about science of a rapidly changing virus and

Yes, it’s never either or. For one good example of the complexity, see this video [1] where Paul Offit notes the problems with the current bivalve that vaccines. [1] https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-v_vXMI91nw

Thanks for posting. His substack piece on the 3 m’s is very appropriate.

I guess it would help to be more specific about how this differs from some of the measurement related startups they list. Taxonomies are difficult, so maybe they do need an entirely separate category, or enlarge the one related to measureme

So embrace, extend, extinguish? Maybe if the extinguish google or esri that would be a good thing. Way too many money changers in the spatial domain. It makes me want to found a startup to democratize the democratization of democratized foo

Was just watching an interview of Billy Corgan (smashing pumpkins) on Rick Beato’s YouTube[1] last night where billy was lamenting the inevitable future where the “psychopaths” in the music biz will use ai and auto tune to churn out three c

“scroll through the log really fast” This is a great point and probably underrated. You may also benefit by scrolling sideways really fast. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_colliculus

You suspect the CDC would massage their messaging to manipulate (nudge?) public opinion towards achieving a desired outcome, rather than just straightforward factual scientific reporting the likes of which most people would expect?

Great to keep in mind that this has not been peer reviewed but I’d rather be optimistic than pessimistic about this. Wouldn’t it be nice if the pandemic in some roundabout way speeds us towards better cancer treatments.

There are times when it doesn’t apply. But yes, for most people in most situations, as most of us know, you don’t talk. It’s called the fifth amendment. School children learn about it in civics class.

I think this is a bit far fetched. He was the scion of famous law professors. He grew up around the law. To think he didn’t understand what the general public does about the law takes a special kind of … assumption that directly contradicts

The places with big homeless problems, like the Bay Area, certainly do lack affordable housing. And it’s true that part of that shortage is due to many years of not building enough housing. But the best economic research I’ve read concludes

There’s also people in the right who say good. These people seem to be focused on geopolitical stability ie defense.

What even is “tech”?

I think many believe that. I still hear seemingly educated people defending mmt. Some even think widespread lockdowns were a free lunch and everything is hunky dory.

AI could certainly do CBT, but will never be a good psychoanalyst. Understanding language is not understanding the id.

“You know, some people got no choice, and they can never find a voice, to talk with that they can even call their own. So the first thing that they see, that allows them the right to be, why they follow it, you know, it’s called bad luck.”

Maybe you can use gpt to automate prompt engineering and crowd source the image selection process then you can just let it run while you do other stuff? I’m pretty sure that some of the people posting chatGPT on Twitter are using Twitter to

Jacques Ellul, the person throwaway7 cited as quoting Maria Motessori. Ellul was a Christian anarchist, which is of course redundant for most modalities of “Christian.” It explains the context of the Montessori reference, to me at least. Ed

Public policy always lags behind science a bit, which seems obvious. And yet at the same time the public seems to be widely confused about the directionality, and there are societal problems which emerge from this confusion, especially beca

I do this sometimes because it makes line comments (to comment out a particular line) much easier. Same with logical operators (and/or). Thought this was pretty common in some languages.

Elul was a Christian above all, so you can maybe understand it in that sense?

It will obsolete essay writing or make cheating more of a problem. This may be good. Multiple choice tests will be favored over things like term papers, which are basically meaningless as of now. This will favor general intelligence (iq) at

A bright future lies in harnessing these language models and other types of ai in computational public policy. For example, humans can’t easily read and understand these massive bills that are written by our legislature.

Probably because of this: “When asked by Reuters why the couple decided to buy a vacation home in the Bahamas and how it was paid for -- whether in cash, with a mortgage or by a third party such as FTX -- a spokesman for the professors said
