   Certainly could be more transparent and more equitably shared. Life is tough for people, corporate entities have interests but never actual pain.

   Sounds grand, but it is not in scope. Instead, each citizen has a volition and a voice and a vote—with exceptions, and at personal expense. And as a humanitarian with reservations, I say tax the bots for UBI.

   Lower-case “civilizations” come and go on a scale larger than one lifetime, while Civilization itself is the medium. I do not think that people deeply rooted in the past five minutes are likely to notice.

   Which is the less intelligent? Strong works when dumb. I know people like to talk about “how smart” the butterfly or whatever is for “adapting itself” to whatever environment, and it is cute, but there is a practical engineering choice betw

   Sure, and thanks for the ranking context also. I think 1Mb is an interesting ballpark figure.

   That's the kind of info I am interested in, thanks.

    Thanks for the info. Wow, 9000 words per workday seems extraordinary.

    You could compare performance on a timed exam between access to YouTube or to an open textbook. It really isn’t a generational vibe thing. They are different mediums.

    It seems all three are equally obscure. Mine at least is a heart shape :)

    Could look up convictions and see how any county courthouse delivers sentences, Bendord’s Law isn’t just for accounting, it’s for anything numeric.

    The text content of my iOS Notes, when zipped, is about 500Kb. Some small fraction of that was copy-pasted from someone else’s writing. I probably have an order of magnitude more than that. Bigger than a context window, smaller than a usefu

    I don’t think harm is a legal standard.

    I was musing earlier today that in US culture you must have a liquor license to sell alcohol, but a drivers license to purchase it.

    Thanks for the feedback! Sounds like you are prolific and consistent! Do you write outside of journaling? Same amount?

    Exactly right—interesting times. I’m curious whether you could estimate what percentage of the 6Gb sessions were your own writing? Of course you guide the ideas, but this word count is a different question from “how many words have you read

    50 years of one 50 word grocery list per week (if you keep them) is 130,000 words, but not everyone writes that much, or that consistently, or for that long, or keeps complete digital copies.

    Hah! Good advice! What I was asking was for anyone, prolific at writing or or not, to understand their own output in relation to…L1 cache or a context window. But thanks! I guess my issue with writing, as a complete amateur, is the later st

    Are you referring to the concept of “prayer?”

    Interesting that it was first discovered with noticing the “garden path” in the front pages of a book of logarithm tables (in 1881).

    How much more than 1Mb, do you know?

    Thanks for your input. Apparently it does! There’s another commenter on this thread who found less than that in their 10 year history.

    Great datapoint, thanks. My “Ask HN” was not intended to focus on HN comment writing only, but since it headed that way on its own, can you share a scriptlet so that others may do more than speculate?

    Thanks, that’s a lot. Can I ask for a ballpark figure? And how you have written so much?

    Ask HN: Do you have more or less than 1Mb text of your own writing?
