AR display = optics.

There is no Moore's Law in optics & batteries. The AR everyone imagines is much further away than most realize.

You think most people are exceptional? If original thought was common it wouldn't be original. This seems like it’s basic power-law stuff.

You reminded me of a paper that suggested that there was an error made in developing the RDA of Vitamin D; the 600IU RDA may be wildly wrong. “ It also estimated that 8895 IU of vitamin D per day may be needed to accomplish that 97.5% of in

And in what universe is great execution devoid of ideas? Do you mean to say that doing something well is way better than imagining doing something well?

The Roaring Twenties came after the Spanish Flu... (& WW1) ;P I jest, but I wonder about the difference between "natural" complex-systems-behavior recessions, and those that come from acute stimulus like war and pandemic. Some

I pay for pre and post school childcare at my kids school, provide by my municipality. I also think School is a kind of childcare. The care of the kids has always been the priority of great teachers in my experience

I thought one of the ideas was to build into this a way to let people pick the good stuff. Which is to ask if Audiences are never wrong?

Forcing no profits is central management at it's very worst - Setting prices causes many downstream derangements to markets. A complex interconnected system will adapt in unforeseeable ways, causing novel externalities for which we hav

I questioned, not stated. I mean that I find him too theoretical - His thinking is all very smart and appealing but useless in practice.

by jp555 7y ago
Is the alternative 100% top-down central-managed solution to ensure no externalization happens ever? In theory that's appealing (especial from the view from Chomsky's academic ivory tower), but then in practice every time it'

I dont mean to suggest that i dont think people can organize in groups. Or that group efforts can never have negative effects. Im trying to say that there is an organic ecosystem of groups that severely constrains all groups in unpredictabl

There may be groups of bad actors coordinating, maybe. But you remind me of this Alan Moore quote: "The main thing that I learned about conspiracy theory is that conspiracy theorists actually believe in a conspiracy because that is mor

I'm reminded of the The Heisenberg uncertainty principle. It's evidence that knowing some things requires not knowing other things. It may not be possible to know everything.

Would a human evolve in isolation? I think we are interconnected with many systems in unknowably complex ways.
171.
by jp555 7y ago
But then again how do we know they are unknown and not unknowable? omg speaking of infinites... this rabbit hole may never have an end. LOL Cheers.
172.
by jp555 7y ago
Is a domain of unknowable unknowns not a sort of singularity (systems theory), and therefore a kind of infinite?

it just seems to me to be only trading one kind of risk externalization for another. Simple top-down solutions are so very attractive, but are absolute folly for interconnected complex systems. The moral of the Tower of Babel. Or if you pre

by jp555 7y ago
I think it's MUCH more naive to assume we are just a very advanced automaton trying to optimise a reward function. What we don't know is infinitely larger than what we do know.

Net negative interest rates do very strange things I guess?

"privatization of profits and socializing losses." This is ideologically biased. You mean "externalize RISK", which governments and NGOs do all the time too.

The root of the problems with Apple's approvals (and I totally agree it's very messed up!) is in the top-down central management. The same kind of problems would inevitably arise from all top-down solutions like mandating all comp

do you mean the brain as in what's contained in our skull or also the central nervous system which would include controlling (both automatically and consciously) everything else, as well as sensing all of what we define as reality?
