The amount of cattle required to maintain pasture is way fewer than we have right now. From a CO2 perspective factory farmed cattle tends to look a little better than "free-range" mostly due to reduced land use changes (but it is

Follow up question. How do we know that some distant galaxy we are observing isn't made up entirely of anti-particles? Wouldn't it behave identically?

Can't we argue for the low amount of anti-matter as a type of anthropic principle? The early universe was super dense meaning that areas with imbalance would quickly annihilate and leave only one type of matter. Then, due to rapid expa

I have the same thing for the red blue illusion [1]. With glasses I see this effect extremely strongly, and without it is barely perceptible. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromostereopsis

This might be pedantic, but I think "happy" is not the right metric. I would love to run a survey which instead asks "are you unhappy" or "are you content"

Yes, in numpy we also have that `np.float64(nan) != np.float64(nan)` evaluates to true.

On average. But it wasn't that uncommon to have people reach 100 years of age even 500 years ago. The biggest impact on lifespans was hygiene not medicine (except for maybe anti-biotics).

Very nice, I've been wanting to build something like this myself but haven't gotten to it. The coffee shop mode is great! My biggest feature request would be changing the font and cursor. The blinking cursor is both distracting an

Sadly there isn't one perfect resource. I find Hambaanglaang kinda useful. The complete cantonese books are good. And I have just started making flash cards. But, I am still just a beginner so take it with a huge grain of salt!

Very impressive, but still has the same problem that seemingly all voice modes that I have tried have which is that the Cantonese voice has a Mandarin accent, and sometimes just straight up uses Mandarin pronunciations.

People who are fascinated with LaTeX are gearhead types. Just the same as photographers who care more about their cameras or chefs who care more about their knives.

From my experience people who worry about existential AI risk tend to worry more about the more mundane problems than the wider population. In particular they have been very vocal about scamming, cube security and also wealth (& power

I am curious, what would you count as coherent? I think it is absolutely insane that we can open and understand what are essentially alien intelligences at all!

I guess that depends on what you think is coherent. A key finding is that the larger the network the more coherent the representation becomes. One example is larger networks merge the same concept across different languages into a single co

The mere token prediction comment is wrong, but I don't think any of the other comments really explained why. Next token prediction is not what the AI does, but its goal. It's like saying soccer is a boring sport having only ever

This paper looks exclusively at decision problems, i.e. problems where the output is a single bit. EDIT: This makes sense because if you look at all problems with N outputs then that is just the same as "gluing together" N differe

My guess is that the linear representation hypothesis is only approximately right in the sense that my expectation is that it is more like a Lie Group. Locally flat, but the concept breaks at some point. Note that I am a mathematician who k
