Thanks for pulling that out! And apologies for my quick post. Another book you might like is “Mathematical Magick” by John Wilkins, one of the founders of the Royal Society [1]. In those days, quite a bit of scientific inspiration came from

The first use of the word “android” comes from the discussion of a legendary mechanical talking head invented by Albertus Magnus. Thomas Aquinas couldn’t bear its babble and so he smashed it to bits. So, maybe he’s a patron saint of the ant

My interest with these overlapping lattices is the creation of fractional electric charges (Hall effect) and through, essentially, Moiré patterns. The angle of alignment will make a big effect. Let me make an artifact to demonstrate… brb

How important is it that the reasoning takes place in another thread versus just chain-of-thought in the same thread? I feel like it makes a difference, but I have no evidence.

Jeez, when you put it that way… No, I hear what you are saying. Nevertheless — I don’t think my hypotheticals are unreasonable. All these people want money. And there is so much more money to be made not going to war. That’s the optimisti

I find LinkedIn a healthy collection of professional accomplishments with minimal news. It’s also not very addictive. However, shitty newsfeeds like Google news are my bane. I can’t stop.

Well, yes — because modern models can solve all the examples in the article. The theory of compositionality is still an issue, but the evidence for it recedes. I think most of the issue comes from the challenge of informational coherence. O
