I'm reading Against Method by Paul Feyerabend. It makes the case for more anarchy in science, that observations are shaped by the paradigm and that therefore new theories sometimes require respite from a lack of support in current evid

I understand what you mean citing Arendt, but unlike Eichmann, what strikes me about this recording of Hitler is how eerily charismatic he comes across with the deep and sober voice, contrasted by Mannerheim's accented and presumably s

The introduction was interesting and thankfully the reference checks out as serious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_Color_Terms

Does simply stripping out the word ever work?

Heck, back in my days, we kids at least had to walk to each other's house to play video games together.

I hate the cognitive load of blindly determining the orientation of my Pixel 6. I have to search for the camera bump with my fingers.

In my experience, 10x employees don't collaborate much with others because they're playing in a different league. You can turn that into an a priori argument, that by definition being exceptional implies riding solo. So WFH will l

I remember the eigenvector analysis of the original paper [1] wasn't terribly inaccessible. I think an alternative title for this blog post could be "Intuitively Understanding the Harris Corner Detector Optimizations". [1] h

Reminds me of a "bad trip" or OCD patterns. I sometimes think about how little it takes to derail the human mind, by trauma or ontogenically, and how wishful the idea of a human-like AI then seems.

You were being facetious, but Swedes are used to being flexible with collaborations. I don't why I'm playing the ambassador, I don't work there.

Tobii have been doing eye-tracking since 2001 and have a product for that. https://www.tobiidynavox.com/

I used to have a modest claim to fame in the niche world of Lego biped walkers with a similar design, some 20 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKioQefwKWQ

These robots always look strained. Their movement is not natural, I think because of not being energy efficient. Passive bipedal walkers* look more human like than anything that has come out of Boston Dynamics. * https://www.yout

Yeah. This is good advice and all but it's no use if embraced only by behavior on a superficial level. Then it's just cosmetic and can be quite vile at worst, like seeing guys repeat pick-up artist tricks.

Think of it as the most sensational number you can write without lying. So it's between 3% and 4%.

Is it a black swan though? I can imagine something like GPS was envisioned well before the first satellites were even launched into orbit. Note, I'm not disputing you. This got me thinking about the nature of invention and discovery.

The author comes across as ignorant at best, but then to present his own work as the Realism Hypothesis of Hertzmann, it leans more towards arrogance.

Neat. Would be nice if there were some examples of what a beads rendition looks like. Maybe it's obvious for people in the game. I assume they are hexagonal?

It's funny how, in the end, the ultimate and perhaps only proof of personhood is being a person, engaged in the world. Sort of how the ultimate decentralized currency is encompassed in the global market of rising and falling economic p

My comment actually came from a place of empathy. With this comment though, I will be openly snarky when I say that you've now contributed to the art piece.

I did, times a few. Went over my head. Cheers.

I think you mean devising. It's crass, but I know I appreciate such corrections in the end myself.

This totally expected level of unconstructive critique makes this comment a miniature art piece.

The simulation part I'd argue isn't as interesting. That other part is though, namely that you, or a computer, can reason symbolically. We can treat the irrational length of the hypotenuse as though it exists in some concrete sens

>There’s no pure knowledge, since the substract where the knowledge lies is material and thence not pure. I think you mean substrate.

But it does become relevant if you consider the mathematics we can understand expanded to some ontological boundedness, for instance perhaps something that relates to the validity of the Church-Turing thesis. Then talking about mathematics
