Ah.. independant invention without significant capital/money based support is very rare in the modern day world. So I'm sure it will support only inventors at an organizational level and at that level, there are lots of skewed inc

Ughh.. I think we need openly sourced models and open-sourced data, but also am pessimistic about how much the current market forces will try to either just appropriate the results or plain simply suppress the spread of those results. For

That's a very intriguing metaphor.. and reminds me of the optimization manually vs using `gcc -O2` .. I am wondering if the "pre-mature optimization is the root of evil" quote applies here and we should all just use async fir

i liked the water shedding idea because it is new to me. But otherwise, the blog makes me ask the question, so if engineers get trained early to focus on executing solutions who is training? Are you just blaming them on the degrees? But don

yeah.. my first hypothesis i was jumping to was that reducing the ion channels reduces specialization and can work on improving distributed(across) neurons decisions/calls... It would be interesting to see a cognitive behavioural task

Agreed... And I am not arguing that trans women (who take hormones after the male puberty) don't have an advantage over non-trans women. Just that trans women are about identity and not biology. Oh BTW, at the highest levels of compet

1. is pretty close for ex: most brain functions can be called subjective, and therefore not that relevant. 2. is relatively a trend in how civilization has been moving. The cavemen bashed a skull that seemed unfamiliar or they didn't

One of the side-effects of this is that, Reading Rust code is painful.. it is a bit like reading old perl or haskell code you haven't looked at. Especially when rust is not the day job it gets complicated/painful to remember the d
