Better article than this. The sad thing is we’re probably trivially close to the tech needed for direct democracy, but the powers that be use tech to confuse and supplant democratic institutions and propose their authoritarian rule.

I’ll go esoteric. Existence precedes essence. I first encountered existentialism in HS within the book of “One Day in the life of Ivan D.” If a labor camp prisoner can find meaning and even beauty in those circumstances my HS self had quite

I hope the link gets changed to yours. It’s a better source and I’m boycotting twitter.

I wish I could do the same but I live in an apartment. Very thankfully, my complex put solar panels on absolutely all of their roofs at least. I’ve taken to re-terming oil as “conflict fuel” myself. It literally empowers the Wests enemies a

PE is a good example because different people have different physiology and will respond better or worse to different exercise schedules. As an adult, people are so varied. The concept of forcing kids, who absolutely are as or more varied t

Is this meant for only CS/ML research? It’s a great idea either way! I look forward to keeping up with it.

Orville happened because SM has a lot of pull and is a fan and made it happen. And I’m grateful. TNG had the last sparkle of Gene Roddenberry's vision of utopia. It got preachy at times. The sad thing with Picard is just how dark and v

Look at how much you pay for taxes and ask whether four kids could be raised on that. The answer is likely no for anyone not in the top top percentiles. Edit-google says 12980/kid per year. That’s 51,920 for four. Edit-if that’s 30% of

Having that IQ requirement allows a person to hold those careers. To people outside those careers success is defined as holding that position for a period of time. Kind of like a musician playing a song or chef cooking some food. The perfor

Solution to the Fermi paradox: the universe can create any phenomenon attributable to life on its own. Better put: it’s near impossible to tell life from non-life at a far distance.

Kind of wonder whether he could help the math world by starting a math college. Could be a stripped down program with basically one or two degree outputs. There is a LOT of math. It is unreasonably powerful at describing the world. But it’s

If you can, you should try a "blind" test outside your home sometime. i.e. Bring the monitor to a hotel room for your next stay, try to guess it, and then see what the actual number is.

Actually just getting a job helps immensely. Look for intro jobs like Help/Service desk positions and do the IT/programming on the side.

My hypothesis is the offered wages are below the market clearing rates. People have a willingness to work for every price offered for their labor. If they aren’t filling positions then the wage is too low. Granted, if they raise rates to 10

You’re both missing a key point. The labor market likely priced labor below the market clearing rate. If people aren’t filling positions at a specific wage level then up the wage level. Laborers have a willingness to work for each level of
