I adore pg’s essay. But this time something is tripping my spider sense, so I had to take a closer look (at my spider sense, and a bit on the essay too). This is the first time an essay feels like a sale pitch. Specifically, a sale pitch fo

A single person that collects data at the same scale at Google? I will absolutely hold him to the same standard. I mean, that was a plot point in a Batman movie not too long ago. And even Batman doesn’t deserve that kind of power.

25m^2 is way way too small for a comfortable life though. For single, you want around 50-60 m2 and 80m2 for a family of 3.

I have no idea what CAA variables are, and search with either google or ddg returns no relevant result… So please explain what they are and why they are not overengineering?

There is already a tweet saying that Han has a 200 rating difference between playing in tournaments that relay moves live to the internet and tournaments that doesn’t: https://twitter.com/atl_kings/status/156865619

The mining capability is external to the network. You have a big enough pile of money, and you are guaranteed to be able to join the validation process meaningfully. There is nothing anyone can do to stop you joining with a big ass mining h

I can't find a source with the full paper at all. And I'm guessing that's why there is no comment here.

Afford in this context means buy. You can rent it but can’t buy it.

Disclaimer first: I'm not a ML practioner, so this might be wrong, though I'm guessing not too blatantly. In a broad stroke, I think all games should and could be dominated by machines nowadays -- though because it is no longer an

Human absolutely bring negative value to a chess match for at least 10 years now (when pairing with a computer). Even for Go AI, where it is only ~6 years old now, I'd still believe that human bring 0 value to a computer. 2-3 years ago

Because people can’t agree on which change would be the most useful (we have limited capability to change things, regardless of how easy the change would be), nor when it is necessary.

I need to clarify that when I said "more beneficial", I was comparing Japanese with Korean. Chinese should beat them both very handily. When I was started learning Japanese more than 10 years ago, my tutor actually said she regret

For practical purpose, Chinese is a class on its own that I don't think any language besides English can be compared with in the next 50 years. Japanese and Korean should roughly have the same utilities, which mostly depends on your lo

That's the median, and depend on the distribution, average and median could be different. That said, the GP is just being obtuse. I'm not sure if he meant intelligence is non bell-shaped or some other reasons and I'm dumb too

Officially, Taiwan agree to the “One China” stance. They even agree in the 1992 consensus that RoC and PRC does not agree who is the legitimate government of both mainland China and Taiwan islands, but the One China stance itself is not som

Just to expand on the part of “ill defined question”. “Human intelligence” might not be a scale that goes up and down, so it’s a bit hard to say for sure. There is probably at least a tradeoff of flexibility vs specialization. There is also

There is a gradient of “being censored”, and not all of it involved being illegal. In Vietnam, the government does capital control by limiting what bank can do with my money (I can’t request them to send 20k to the US unless I have an appro

I had part of my comment responding to this point, but I wasn’t sure how to best phrase it so I cut it off. I don’t believe for this to happen enough at any frequency to be a valid reason. People usually knows their pain point, and go to gr

In the ideal world, people should be empowered to be able to retrieve what they are looking for when they need it (people pull and filter information, rather than being pushed information). The reason we can’t realistically do it right now

China isn’t looking to obliterate Taiwan off the earth. They wage a war to unite the country: they need a functioning Taiwan as much as possible after the war ends. To put it another way, they considers it to be a civil war, and will give p

That just forces 8 players in the candidates to do their preparation BEFORE the tournament. Economically speaking, that won't be enough time for advertising, setting the venue or getting sponsor up either. It matters who plays in the W
