The unknowns are so high going to any job, current state unknowns, future state unknowns. Higher compensation is the only proxy we have for importance and leverage, always chose higher leverage over lower leverage unless burnout is a possib

I developed full aphantasia at 16 after being put under for a heart procedure. My minds eye was somewhat diminished after a procedure at 11 when they put me in a twilight instead of fully under. I have a sister younger who is 6 years younge

Ok, so no particular disagreement or pragmatic pitched alternative, great! I agree, structurally improved government and regulations is the only definable way forward for me too.

by fellowniusmonk 2mo ago
So the issue is under regulation, yeah, agree on that point. Sounds like the only reasonable solution to the problem you raise is that the part of our government that's responsible for defense should be put under the seperate part that

There are whole sections of code work that 4.7+ can't do simply because it is both over fit and stubborn. God save you if you have a company with narrow but correct technical tradeoffs, because you operate at scale. Opus from 4.7 one w

Unexamined natural speed free verse is the best way, however poor, to examine ones Firstness. Poetry will considerably outlive Plato I think in the long run.

Can you be an American Conservative and against immigration? I feel like you'd be conserving british conservativism or something, not conserving a historical American value.

Past Opus 4.6 the models become absolute overfit trash, overfitting + their overconfidence makes them an existential threat to progress in niche areas, there are certain types of cutting edge crdts that are impossible to get a them to work

The hard part was the rote memorization of leetcode challenges and then learning to pattern match to the particular problem in a 5 minute technical interview. The second part was that the test was being administered by a gatekeeper who was

I have some internal tests I use for areas where one particular solution/paradigm is dominant but worse. Opus 4.6 is the last model that's actually useful and can "adjust" its perspective to use the newer & better so

Anything digital basically has the chaos fuzzed out by its binary nature. The analog gets all the real entropy. Humans are cool because our distribution is exploring the future curve of what is possible in a hostile universe and to do that

I once saw a professional software engineer try to refactor the spaghetti code in a complex bioinfomactics project written in python. It was a complete failure. That branch was abandoned and development continued off the spaghetti. There is
