The Wit and Wisdom of Charlie Munger is a good place to start. Shane's mental models books are packed with a lot of random/disparate domains/insights -- He's a good aggregator there. Thinking in Systems by Meadows. Reall

FS was a major part of me getting into Munger and building out my web of mental models. Will always be grateful to Shane for that!

This is one of those fun "achsully" responses I get the privilege to refute. It's a foundational principle of copyright law, codified in 17 U.S.C. § 102(b): "In no case does copyright protection for an original work of a

GenAI changes the dynamics of information systems so fundamentally that our entire notion of intellectual property is being upended. Copyright was predicated on the notion that ideas and styles can not be protected , but that explicit expr

This type of behavior contaminates all sense-making, not just machine sense-making, and is a prime example of the naive neo-Luddite making their mark on the world. It will not halt progress, and will do harm in the process. /shrug

To each their own. I find Omarchy to simply "make sense" out of the box for me. And, I've never used a tiling WM before it (and feel crazy for not having done so)

As some advice to prepare for - if this moves any demand from their enterprise pipeline, the n8n team will be looking for ways to add friction to your life and this project. The easiest will be giving notice that you’re using n8n in the nam

All good - just interested in what the theory is behind it, and how effective it is purported to be. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Any evidence supporting “higher performance”?

MIT is not copyleft. The copyright notice must be included for those incorporated elements, but other downstream code it remains part of can be licensed however it wants. AGPL and GPL are, on the other hand, as you describe.

Same. If you’re able to self host and run the tool for any use, it’s effectively a free, extensible, modifiable software solution. Copyleft licenses are as restrictive as the license DHH put out with Fizzy. I’m an Apache 2.0 or MIT licensin

Subjective. Most in creative industries regularly still use SDXL. Once Z-image base comes out and some real tuning can be done, I think it has a chance of replacing it for the function SDXL has

Yes - If you're willing to allow that AI might be a tool in the artistic process if it is used in conjunction with intent and effort , then we are at a reasonable position -- That stating "all AI is slop" is as inarticulate

by aeon_ai 1y ago
I won't disagree that most use of AI is slop - Just like most people in a 'sips and strokes' class make slop. The issue I raise is that we can critique the users of it without discarding the tool as used by an artist who prod

Turning conversations away from nuance and towards black/white thinking is precisely why we're in an increasingly polarized society. You may see it as a means towards the collective action you'd prefer, but your argument is t

Who knew that nuance was the enemy of rational thought.

by aeon_ai 1y ago
One-shot generations? Multi-track stem generation? Use of Suno at all in the process of composition? Is slop a function defined by the tool or the users level of effort in using it?

by aeon_ai 1y ago
Define art for me then. Because if you can’t do that, and effectively articulate why AI media can’t be art when used as a tool by an artist to achieve their creative intent, I would claim the win on this. one.

Nah. Categorizing all AI as slop lacks nuance and demonstrates a shallow understanding of art

As mentioned, no indictment, and you don’t need to prove anything - helping kids learns is clearly a goal. But so too is making money off the iOS app, correct?

My point is that packaging the app in such a way as to put off your target audience is inherently unsustainable business.
