I thought on this for a few days. The nature of scientific process, forces us to maintain absolute emphasis on our observation, to an extent which we are willfully ignoring the limitations and scope of our observations. I wonder who is to b

I used to be greatly tempted by the fermi paradox, but upon learning about limitations we have observing the skies.... I believe the entire fermi paradox talk, is just steeming from the fact that we think too highly of ourselves as a civili

Well, we may go along with it, and still end up not being able to have nice things with the current economical model, because we won't be able to afford it. Nobody knows if average consumer will be able to afford to pay for GPT-5 or wh

It starts by not taking the work itself personally. Then any criticism of it is not personal either. You are not the result of your craft. You are the craftsman doing your best in a given environment, under certain conditions, in a given sc
