Being young and healthy goes a long way. I was happier when I was a poor ahh college student but that doesn't mean losing all my money and possessions would be good for my mental health.

True, what is considered a “winning” position is different at different elo levels. The better someone is, the smaller their mistakes are relative to perfect play. I wish top players like Magnus would do more exhibition games against top co

I believe it’s something like 500 elo points difference at this point between Magnus and Stockfish running on cheap hardware. Computers are so strong the only way to measure their strength is against other, weaker computers, and so on unti

I can’t speak for ChatGPT, but your intuition is correct that LLMs tend to play more like “humans” than Stockfish or other semi-brute force approaches.

Nice paper. I’d like if someone re-ran the numbers using modern chess engines… the engine they used is exceedingly weak by modern standards.

autocracy is about concentration of power, correct. bureaucratic is not autocratic. it‘s the opposite. Removing checks and balances is a bad thing, yes.

I'm convinced the entire reason Trump is so obsessed with tariffs is he doesn't need congressional support. It's just a power grab. Hopefully someone knocks some sense into him before he follows through, but if not, I'l

If they're being used as a major revenue generator, and not simply as a strategic way to negotiate with countries, then tariffs should be determined by Congress. This is a huge power grab by the Presidency. Extreme across-the-board tar

Sure, but the fact "tax" isn't part of the term, as opposed to "sales tax" or "property tax" or "income tax" I think its use during the campaign mislead the American people. I don't think mo

You don’t watch Fox News or listen to talk radio… it’s a nonstop drumbeat about how Kamala is a communist who will forcibly trans aborted prison babies. And “migrant crime” is up 10000000% and they’re lazy but also taking the jobs.

Rape is endemic throughout the prison industrial complex, protections for prisoners are nowhere good enough. Subjecting transwomen to rape in men’s prisons isn’t the solution. The JD Vance/Peter Thiel/SSC rationalist sphere is suc
