Free energy theory is so interesting to me - I think there are some very interesting, unexplored, overlaps with Boyd's OODA loop that are begging to be studied

It's really great to see this list growing (when I first heard of this last year it was only about 800 I think). I'd love to hear from anyone at a remote company about the things you need to do differently to succeed. I have a hyp

Yes, unfortunately you're right that they do the whole signposting and support better than we do. There are bodies in the UK who are providing more support for example https://techvets.co/ and many of the large financi

Interviewee here. AMA, particularly if you're a veteran who wants to get into tech. I'd love to hear from my betheren over the pond what the signalling and transition process is like for guys and gals leaving the US forces.

No - it's actually pretty straightforward. I think I should read it again :-)

What's a diff range? Do you have a link to desrciption/docs so I can read up?

I already got the begging email asking me to sign the petition. You're right that this feels like the wrong tone!

Well, I can't disagree with the reasons, but as someone who lives outside the M25 this means I lose a really handy way to get home when I've had a drink. Ah well, I'm supposed to have given up anyway :-)

I did not get that meaning from reading the memo. And I really don't understand how anyone could. Could you point out the part in the memo where he stated bluntly that many of his colleagues shouldn't be there because of their sex

I thought that LDL-P had been determined to be a more reliable indicator of heart disease risk? Also hasn't heard of insulin resistance as an effect of ketogenic diets... What's the mechanism for that, do you know?

I've been completely blown away with Pieter's courage and willingness to share his journey. I hope I have 10% the dignity when my time comes!

Love this! Some of these algorithms are inherently recursive, have you used/looked into a functional language to create them at all?

Yeah it is a lot. I wouldn't consider buying a brand new car normally. However As currently structured it seems to be a fairly tax efficient way to extract money from the company (vs just buying one from after tax earnings). I was wond

Model X has arrived in the UK recently. As a UK company director (contractor), I seem to be able to tax efficiently buy one of these things and get rid of my gas guzzling family 4x4. Anyone done this, I'm still a bit hazy on how the BI
