Apologies for coming across as heated and getting carried away - my intent was not to convey pettiness, but rather highlight how those notions are highly subjective. Everyone has their own idea of what's fun and what's competent.

The person I replied to claims their work based social interactions are totally utilitarian and transactional - very Patrick Bateman. Should work be fun? Of course, in fact every part of life should be good and fun for everyone all the time

How is "scientific dominance" defined? Dollars per Papers per minute?

This seems like a very specific perspective, I take it you're the "Live to Work" kind of person?

I don't think OP is advocating for bonding necessarily so much as being on good terms with everyone, not burning bridges, etc.

Very interesting, TIL about STRIPS - but if this works as well as claimed then without knowing more it seems too good to be true, and further surprising that it isn't more widely adopted. I'm curious if you have plans for this sit

No not exactly, it was more "I'm not arrogant enough to assume I know someone better than they know themselves, I'm not going to dogmatically explain a person to themselves as if I have all the information and can magically i

Eh I don't think I would commit to vibe coding something I don't understand. I don't know enough about prolog to know if the idea is truly plausible - or as another commenter suggested, less than ideal compared to other solve

seems interesting, though i'm not sure I fully understand - its mainly a demo where LLMs generate prolog code for this specific port problem? I was imagining my idea on a larger scale, 1. using prolog to improve general "reasoning

Good take, yeah my naive idea of prolog is as a kind of "solver", so I suppose the better the solver the better implementation.

In hindsight yeah it's obvious. But at the time I had a mentality of "well you can't know for sure, you can't assume this signal means that, it's not scientific, it's not objective, etc." There's also

I would describe myself as the opposite of OP (very bad at reading people) so it was quite a shock the first time I met someone like this. Not only for the revelation that these type of people exist, but the experience of another person rea

I'll keep shilling the idea that someone should find a way to glue LLMs and prolog together to create better reasoning agents. I say this as someone who cant write a single prolog program, but i get the gist of it and afaik it hasn&#x2

A few points: The distinction between story telling and show business - sometimes content merely exists for shock value as a publicity stunt. For example, I had no idea Andor had another season. Audience and brand - a jarring tonal shift un

Once Bezos replaces everyone with robots, why would he need anyone to buy his junk anymore?

Good take, but while we're invoking intuition, something is clearly missing in the fundamental design given real brains don't need to consume all the worlds literature before demonstrating intelligence. There's some missing p

I want to know if anyone has answered the question: what does a healthy relationship with this thing look like? All kids grow up and are eventually exposed to sex drugs and rock'n roll. These things are part of our world, you have to c

There's the tool and then there's how you use it. We're all still learning how to live with rapidly changing tech, but it sounds like your kid tried to pass off someone (something) else's work as their own. Cold and impe

This is a tough one, a real life trolley problem. To think there is an alternate version of history where this war is being fought with nukes right now.

Yes the tech industry is really lacking people who want to "change the world." But its an interesting thought exercise. Slavery seems like a cut and dry issue in terms of harm and human rights, yet overtime the "easy" mo

The "economy" is just a word for how a group of people decide to allocate labor and resources. How to do this fairly and effectively is a subject of debate - whether its free markets, central planning, pillaging, piracy, or anarch

I want you to honestly think back to 17 when you had to make this choice - did you make it alone? How many of your peers were aware of the financial risk they were taking?

Which choice is that - pursuing higher education to have a better life, or being unemployed? What would be your advice to them, what should they have done differently?

It's about telling a story, and it's important to tell the right one. They don't want to hear a data sheet of facts or an emotional unloading of regrets and dissatisfaction. They want to know that you are a professional, you

How much does S3 cost these days? I've been burned by their hidden surge pricing before and hesitate to rely on them for personal storage when self hosting is fairly cheap.

I'll add: often the freelancer is a former employee with expertise that's easier to pay for than train into new employees.
