The argument is essentially a technical chart trade? It may as well be numerology or astrology. We are humans, finding patterns in data after the fact is what we do. Do yourself a favor, don't trade on this mumbo jumbo.

That's how these evolutionary scientists do read it - 'the race to find the evidence to backup our concepts of intelligent hominid behavior has achieved another breakthrough'. The journalists frame it as 'scientists are

Yes. In other words, this is a nice exemplification of the issue that AI lacks world models. A case study to work through.

No, not when you're designing processes based on a Von Neumann (sequential RAM) architecture. This is the characteristic feature of what the 'array tool' represents.

by riazrizvi 9mo ago
No, not in a programming language sense, because arrays are a notation for address offsetting, whereas functions change the execution context of the machine, which is critical to processing performance (think Horner's method). Not even

You had me at ‘rubbish article’. There’s a bunch of Youtube content on this that’s far superior, example: https://youtu.be/puzxeIvpgwg https://youtu.be/SrC3wms8pQ8

we’re talking about different things. there’s meritocratic fairness where producers are paid fairly for their work, and there’s a functioning economy, where there are simply enough economic opportunities to sustain established norms of comm

I’d rather they served ads. The economy is somewhat broken right now, with the way these things are bypassing all regular information channels. This will hopefully create lots and lots of new business for 3rd parties again. Ideally, they’ll

Seems reasonable. He makes a provocative statement for ppl in his audience to draw their attention and make the important point it’s not okay (we should avoid) ppl who dislike us based on skin color. And he makes the further point he agrees

Elements of society slowly wise up to how they are being manipulated, as they are increasingly exposed to it. Now with modern AI the online manipulation tactics are getting worse. So as we find ourselves in that pool of ppl who see what is

Proof of interest, not acclaim. And online interest is heavily skewed to the narrow activities of entertainment and education - professional community communication happens but in far smaller numbers vs the other two.

Did he go off the rails? My understanding is that the zeitgeist is taking people’s opposing views online and distorting them, removing context, to outrage our own audience and align it to our cause. Almost everyone is reasonable, it’s the c

This will absolutely help. It’s easy for these institutional players to downplay their involvement with select stats, to play PR defense, but platforms like Zillow work with institutional funds to sell them an information advantage that mea

This is a good list. Original, evidence to me that the author is the real deal.

I don’t see that at all. Lots of good things will come from this IMO. The old wet-kneed approach to shenanigans going on in our own backyard is a disastrous message to people around the world. Just as a resurgently effective law enforcement

Perhaps another helpful paradigm are traffic/construction cones with ‘do not cross’ messages. Sometimes nothing happens, other times you run into wet concrete, other times you get a ticket. They’re just plastic objects, easy to move, b

It’s giving you an expression capability so that you can state your intent, in a standardized way, that other tooling can build off. But it’s recognizing that the degree of enforcement depends on applied context. A big company team might wa

Cooking at home saves you time if you do it right. A slow cooker, frozen meat, frozen veg, stock powder. Cook a batch and put into containers for the week. It’s not hard to develop a healthy, cheap, quick approach to eating. Most people fin

Fair point. BTW I was originally searching for an SRO but I landed a 'micro-apartment' (I just double-checked terms), it has its own kitchen/bathroom. Had I stopped looking I wouldn't have found this great situation. Gre

Yes I exactly did that! Moved into an SRO on the edge of Chinatown. It's a nice tiny apartment, I'm on the edge of a mecca of affordable grocery stores, and I'm two blocks from my part-time job that gives me free-time to self

Things happen, it’s true. And in the world there are many enterprises that spring up to present solutions as long as you fork over all your cash, and here in the USA, based on the market, that means lots and lots of cash. That’s just a pers

You can live in the heart of San Francisco on $2k/mo, including rent. You don’t need to work 10hours a week as a software developer, to support that lifestyle. I could fit a solar system in the gap between your two options of a) full

Anyone can have security by living very safely within their means, by learning how to be satisfied. What people really mean when they say what you are proposing, is “guarantee a certain future lifestyle”. But the appeal of future lifestyles
