I made some concept maps of the first parts of the paper. It might help with clarifying some of it. https://twitter.com/izzyz/status/1525099159925116928

Cool. The code might look scary but it's intuitive. The mermaid diagram lib is preinstalled in Observable notebooks. The diagrams can be created with the template literal mermaid``. A range input is set up, which returns the number at

Oh that's standard fare. Institutional incentives are not always aligned with human needs. Not to reduce the severity of it all. It's really bad. I'm more incredulous about academically trained domain experts being "brai

Non sequiturs are not helpful during polarized conversations. I can infer your meaning, but the idea that you're gesturing at seems absurd to me.

No, I'm not saying that. Breath mindfulness can sharpen your blade, but it won't tell you when or why to use your blade. I present Axelrod as a modern pop culture representation of that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wi

Bobby Axelrod meditates secularly. He's a case study in what happens when power isn't ethically contextualized.

When I saw the Salesforce email I thought I was being spammed or phished or getting a job offer.

Can you automate token generation? The repo uses a middleware server. I'm wondering what other approaches there are.

Arguably, the biggest barrier to any creative domain is technical capability. An immediate thought is that locked-in people who can only communicate by text would be able to share their thoughts more expressively. In terms of the creation l

Limitations and bounds generally allow me to explore a smaller creative space without tangents. I think this is a generally accepted trope in creative domains. There's also the fact that a swath of the world stopped reading after high

I've worked on a lot of these processes. If you're interested in talking, my Twitter is linked in my HN profile.

I read Catch-22 at around 16. I spent hours at the public library in a secluded corner desk trying so hard to stifle my laughter. Amazing book.

Eloquent JS changed my life. It made me realize that it would be hard, but I really could do this.

Welcome! HN is definitely my internet home. Hope you find yourself in some awesome convos too.

Fair enough! The conversation evoked screenshots of Palantir software from a decade or so ago. I imagine it's next level now.

That was my thought. The value of a piece of metadata is inherent in its context as a node within a network. You might have disparate pieces of information about a group of people, but weighing their connections by similarity/proximity

I memorized half of If when I was younger. It seemed especially impressive to certain people. These days I combine mnemonics with memory palace journeys. In a few hours of practice I went from being able to memorize 6 digits to around 70. M

I ask myself those three questions after practicing. In the literature of other domains, like education and nursing, it's called reflection. There's a lot to parse in the linked article, but I bet this is one of the most important

I didn't know I was doing literate programming when I started using Observable. It's changed the way I code in a huge way. The code isn't tucked away, so it's like repos in VS Code are hidden caverns, and Observable coll

I had a Next.js project due for an interview and it basically took my entire weekend, even with a working prototype in another framework. The interviewer later on told me that the assignment was his way of experimenting to find out if the c

I think it's relevant, especially when a site has state that could be lost when _self or _parent is used. It really sucks to lose your place because you accidentally clicked a link, forgetting to open it in a new tab.

Thank you!

Sorry you got downvoted. It's a legitimate question. I think the parent comment was being ironic by pointing out a dangerous command that might be run. I think it would remove any files at the root directory. rm -> remove/delet

The linked repo requires manual ratings. There's a way to grab your upvoted posts programatically, but it requires scraping, which can get your IP banned if done incorrectly. There doesn't seem to be an endpoint for access to priv

I never thought of it from this perspective. A yacht could serve as a research vessel with slight added protection against political turmoil. One of the problems with setting up organizations inside of a nation-state are the economic and po

If we manage to create an artificial sentience then we need to legislate and protect their rights. AGI won't be a free lunch.

Awesome. Thanks for the resources. Coincidentally, I stumbled on this research today on the effect of exercise + meditation on word recall: https://hpp.tbzmed.ac.ir/PDF/hpp-9-314.pdf
