In the event that the first post led to this one, I'd be curious to know what the intermediate internet rabbithole consisted of.

Sure, if he'd come up with this primarly using his own resources and time, but he discovered this whilst being paid to conduct research at a public university, a form of institution which is explicitly intended to disseminate knowledge

At its foundation modern security is based on ideas from information theory and cryptography that were discovered, not invented. Arguably just as fundamental as the postulates of general relativity or quantum mechanics.

I watched this with my girlfriend. I can confirm that your domain name is completely accurate.

If you took this seriously you'd write everything in assembly to avoid dependancy on a language that will one day break. Picking a set of dependancies that are built on well reasoned, clean abstractions is a far better apporach than ro

'in your view' would probably have been a better choice of words.

Does that line of reasoning extend to things like fast food and motorcycles in your eyes? Not trying to undermine your point, just genuinely curious.

Ultimately my bad for letting my original comment turn into a word salad. Glad we've ended up on the same page though.

Which of selection or variation does meiotic drive fall under? Clearly it isn't Darwinian selection, because it can favour transmission of genes which are not conducive to survival. Clearly it isn't variation, because it tends to

Inclined to agree, but most thermal physics uses the reals as they're simpler to work with, so I think they're ok here for the purpose of argument.

Where exactly in my description do I invoke consciousness? Where does the description given imply that consciousness is required in any way? The fact that there's a non-obvious emergent phenomena which is apparently responsible for you

It's possible to construct a similar description of whatever it is that human brain is doing that clearly fails to capture the fact that we're conscious. If you take a cross section of every nerve feeding into the human brain at a

I don't think you've understood my point. I'm not suggesting that selection doesn't occur, but rather that selection is only part of the story. Have a look at gene flow or genetic drift if you want to know more, they&#x2

An issue with this line of reasoning is that Darwinian evolution fails to accurately describe real evolutionary processes. A counterexample is meiotic drive, where alleles disrupt the meiotic process in order to favour their own transmissio

One thought regarding footnotes. I often find myself searching in the reverse direction, i.e. I have a footnote, where is the superscript to which it belongs?. This is quite difficult to do by eye, so perhaps some goto reference type functi

This is an inaccurate statement. Geocentrism makes identical predictions to heliocentrism, but clearly the two models offer differing explanations of the dynamics of the solar system. From an engineering perspective, yes, predictions are al

Whilst I see the appeal of LLMs that unquestioningly do as they're told, universal access to uncensored models would be a terrible thing for society. Right now if a troubled teenager decides they want to ruin everyone's day, we ge

Sounds like OpenAI want to further leverage their platform into a tool for directing public opinion. Or maybe this is just a middle finger directed at Elon Musk by Sam Altman, who knows.
