Oh wow, that’s a lovely way to say it! Purpose rebirth is the re-finding of play in the thing we choose to partner with AI (likely with a paycheck attached) to do N hours a week.

I like that!

Yes, I am making up a narrative. That’s why I used words like “postulate”, “think”, “I wonder”, and “I may be wrong”.

Oh dang… sorry that I fucked that up.

> and that mathematicians need to find out where they want to go I think you’re right that mechanically I’m saying the same thing as they are saying “use AI to build your dreams”. I think the psychology is the difference. Specially, “oh

I think you’re likely right about the path to enlightenment. I love the wisdom you’ve found. The rest of us need some time to get there, in a likely rolling wave of realization that keeps getting reset across generations.

Look, I could be wrong. That said, I think AI is both in some conversations a tool and in some conversations it’s short hand for “Capitalistic Acceleration”. With each iteration of RSI, this second context is increasingly the more important

You might also be going though purpose death which is an emotional concern related to thriving, but I think your bigger emotional concern is related to survival. This answer is the same as ever - race to financial freedom. Live under your m

I’m glad you found something that works well for you. For me, nihilism is much like ice cream: I don’t want it in my fridge - not because I think it’ll taste bad, but because I think it’s gonna taste real good.

Thanks for the German word. I can’t read most of the literature, but initial glance it does indeed seem the same. FWIW I never enjoy naming things lol. I agree death and temporary seem at odds. “Purpose Loss” didn’t have the same gusto. I m

I think as a civilization we need to postulate a new term: “purpose death” Defined something like: temporary state of complete loss of personal purpose and the experience of existential dread from never achieving self-actualization in spite

Anyone with familiarity know when an engine like Bevy will have (or already has) plugins for simulated movement animation? In my most recent experimental game I’d like to be able to just assign BiPed / QuadPed to the asset mesh + rig a

Ouch, love to see a great product like this. However, hate to see that bike theft wasn’t discussed at all. “Easy installation” with two screws seems like a benefit to customers except when they come back to their parked bike only to find th

Predicting when the sigmoid bends is difficult and predicting how long until it unbends is equally difficult. The simpler assumption is that over enough time, the S functions stack together for long enough that working backwards from expone

The title and intro are badly worded. The conclusion is “you should do MRIs it is equivalently beneficial as all of ___ are bad for you”

I think the Rick and Morty episode mathematically proved the futility in trying such an exercise.

I’ve been using Google AI Edge Gallery on my M1 MacBook with Gemma4B with very good results for random python scripts. Unfortunately still need to copy paste the code into a file+terminal command. Which is annoying but works.

An extremely verbose effects system can resolve these dependency permissions at compile time. However, balancing ergonomics is a the big challenge. I personally would prefer less ergonomics for more security, but that’s likely not a broadly

I’m surprised everyone is worried about heat dissipation. Datacenters in space is ambiguous enough to mean on lunar soil which provides plenty of heat dissipation using geothermal heat pumps. Similarly mass to orbit is also less problematic

Of course it is. C does allow named functions and variables. C doesn’t allow arbitrary jumps. Those are two reasons why C is less tedious than assembly.

It does not. The $1 of electricity can be simplified to just a $1 However, the way the parent worded it ie $1 of compute electricity - requires the compute to exist and temporarily be loaned. Otherwise “just a $1” would require a massive ca

Self driving cars have existed for at least a year now. It only took a decade of “1 years away” but it exists now, and will likely require another decade of scaling up the hardware. I think AGI is going to follow a similar trend. A decade o

Having both worked at Amazon and still in the cloud industry, to me this seems like a strange take. Apple leases these computers from Amazon like it would from any other colo. Why wouldn’t these servers be considered Apple servers? Barring

Facts! I now get to the gym (or some form of exercise) 6 days a week. That was entirely because I made the decision to go to the gym and watch some YouTube. Then I’d end up staying 90 mins but I’d get my 50 min workout in with a lot of long

I think one of the most important lessons in life (even as a healthy person) is realizing “motivation and action are cyclically causal” Of course “action follows motivation” but even when not motivated “motivation follows action”. For examp

I turn a lot of real photos into cartoons. I love the feature! Most recently I took a photo of my grandma and me, asked Gemini to make it a cartoon, asked Gemini to make the new variant into a birthday card. My grandma loved it! I was happy

It’s likely designed to encourage taking out the capital as a loan. A lot more people around the world can then afford to send their kids or pay off their gold cards across a 10-15 year timeframe. *Obviously this depends on the income poten

FWIW, I think you might be better off with immutable rows and lamport clocks. Everything is a full new row because it is “a message” including read receipts. Some messages like read receipts just don’t render in the chat. Edits can work the
