I can't remember most of the stuff I read. Doesn't mean having it on the bookshelf as reference is a bad idea. I think most books are like that anyway.

Yes, it seems expensive. However, you will save sooo much time by getting it. One of my regrets was not spending money at the beginning of my journey into software. It's easy to justify not spending the money when there's so much

I think everyone would react quite quickly placed next to a poisonous snake. My point being is there are two kinds of people: Those who run towards something and those running away from something. Pessimism can cause just as much action as

Right. I like the idea of UBI, but from first priciples, a lot of value comes from arbitrage. UBI will benefit the fastest movers, prices will reach new equilibrium points, and then it will be like no one got UBI, people will be back where

I've noticed in the poorest HCOL areas, you've got several low income workers all chipping in for the rent. There's nothing stopping them from trying to move out on their own using their UBI funds. For first movers, they'

Why would going to war solve anything? We'd have to print more money to support war, which would put us in greater debt.

That's sad because the old timers generally have a lot of wisdom to share. They are usually also the ones at that stage in life where they are willing to mentor someone.

The one brilliant "jerk" I work with works mainly by himself. He's been isolated from everyone else. I say "jerk" because he doesn't seem like one to me, he's just disagreeble. I've noted in most work

I've worked at a place with mostly HB1 engineers and I've seen this lead to bad software because almost no one can say no to dumb requests. In these environments, no one challenges the higher ups and just do what they are told, n

Can you share how many employees are at your company and your YOE? I definitely feel underpaid, but not so terribly that I'm actively searching for another job. I know FANG pays well, but it isn't easy to get into those either.

Nah, if I've learned anything, it's that the money printers will turn on at the first sight of major trouble and everyone (some, more than others) will pay with inflation.

Sounds like a plan to offset the massive withdrawals Boomers (or their heirs) are about to do (just like the opt out vs current opt in 401K), with the added bonus of the managers taking a nice 1%-2% off the top.

Some countries have no cents, just notes. I hope we get there soon. I hate carrying coins and is one of the main reasons I don't use cash often.

What's not clear here is who's call is it to declare AGI? I would think that would be Ilya. In that case, this narrative doesn't make sense.

No need to disagree, both our statements can be true at the same time. I also need to be less stoic, but I refuse to put on a mask to achieve that. My statement was directed at those who wear that mask all too well. Example, my landlord,

This the main reason I don't trust people who are in the business of "selling". On one hand, it's nice being around those kinds of people. On the other hand, it's hard to take any of the nice things they say serious

I'll re-test. I don't use the M3 often, so it could be something else like spotlight running in the background that's causing the drain.

Just an observation, I have an M1 Max and M3 Pro. The M3 Pros battery seems to drain much much faster than my M1 when watching YT. Wonder if this P core thing has anything to do with it.

Of course, this is a must from the board members. They certainly won't pick a CEO who's not in that camp.

I'd say Elon Musk is a top pick for the alt-ceo. He seems to share the very same concerns regarding AI as the board members that fired Sam. Of course, Musk has had backlash for Neura-link not being focused enough on safety, so who know

Their current model allows for hypercapitalism with constraints and has been successful. They still raised billions. Remains to be confirmed what happened behind the scenes, but it possible Sam wasn't honest with these dealings. The co

This is my take, Altman was fired because there was no other choice. OpenAIs charter is fundamentally incompatible with the hypercapitalist model and its believers. I'm sure the board tried to dissuade Sam from going certain path, but
