They mostly don't say nonsense. I listened to the whole thing and I found it very convincing. I've never been able to listen all the way through AI generated content before. It's hard for me to believe this was 100% AI genera

This is the problem with "fake news" and increasingly AI generated content. From an information theoretic perspective this is a perfect title. It sounds 100% improbable, it is therefore 100% surprising, yet it (apparently) deliver

People are acting like 20% of Twitter content is crap and it can be saved by moderating that 20%. This is incredibly naive. 99% of Twitter is crap and always will be. You can't moderate that away. The question is how to make the 1% dis

You should look up the word in a dictionary. You might be surprised by its definition.

So, if I already model systems via boxes and arrows, and use things like petri nets, then am I good, or do I still need to learn category theory?

Those are technical problems. "Technical" doesn't just mean tech stack.

You agree and then list a bunch of technical problems.

I think your looking at the problem wrong. It's not Twitter's job to fix people. It's Twitters job to connect people in a communications graph. This is absolutely a technical problem, as there are many possible configurations

As someone who has always thought Twitter is stupid, I'm glad Musk bought it and is shaking things up. Both possible outcomes are interesting - either Twitter finally becomes not stupid, or even the worlds richest man and greatest tech

Can't you solve the moderation problem by simply having the default view be the social graph of depth N of people you subscribe to? In that case, unwanted comments actually provide useful information about your social graph.

Docker is an interesting thing. I really love what I'm able to do with it. But I despise when people make it a necessary component of the development environment.

I'm totally in favor of bringing back dinosaurs. I'm also in favor of modifying animals to have more human-like brains. I understand that many/most people would oppose this on ethical grounds. I could probably even articulate

Money is decision-making-tokens. I believe the best people to use those tokens are the people who earned them. But, when a huge portion of societies decision tokens are sitting idle in a few accounts, it calls into question whether the hold

The technology has come a long way since the early days of the DARPA grand challenge. Fortunately, the technology will continue to progress, independent of your ability to comprehend it.

It's not a scam. A scam is a deliberate deception. Engineers working on this are genuinely trying to solve the problem.
