I generally dont mind if someone is angry at me, if it's something I did poorly. Honestly i enjoy it, shows someone cares abt what i output. However, when people expect to be wronged , and preemptively adopt an agressive posture, be

How i reason about this is that, there are two types of science works, exploitative and generative. Exploitative science is kinda like what ingen do in jurassic park, finding an use case based on available tensions in the literature. Funni

I think it's more than that. I made prediction in earlier 2024 that the main players of AI will stick with transformers while second class players will want to transcend it. The difference is admittedly a bit subtle but ai researchers

Probably they wouldn't be. A lot of this is people catastrophizing. Probably already somewhat unhappy even before. Regarding spirituality i think it's more about math itself than math as a discipline. Math might be divine. E

This kind of thinking assumes quantitative changes never result in qualitative change. Which is demonstrably false. Obviously there are thresholds where phase transitions happen. Take saltwatwer and cell. After some threshold of saltiness

You tested it, i doubt you authored it. A paternal twin can have one with good impulse control and another who's more instinctual. Even in the same family and upbringing.

I'm reminded of a kid, and there is always such a kid, whose parents put them in front of everyone and asked them, 'what do you want to be when you grow up?'. And when they answered, 'i want to be a president!' Eve

what's stopping someone to feed it to an llm and say 'make it simpler' and maybe run it twice.

Yeah mathematicians tend to do that. Physicists not so much I think. However, none of what he says about AI is such a strong prediction, unlike the 'crackpots' that are probably on your mind.

Might not be solveable. At some point the effort in finding that someone might be larger than the benefit you get from just using the second, third, fourth best. Or using some flawed approximation hiring mechanism. There's just so m

Dario is no John hammond though. That'd be altman. He actually has the discipline and background as an ai scientist to tell what the potential failure modes are. You're right, he might still be just hyping things up, but genera

Pain without suffering vs suffering without pain. Now everyone have smartphones but dignity feels like it's getting lower.

Gives them the freedom to interpret it 'case by case' which is to mean punishing businesses and states not aligned with Trump with a million inconveniences, while leaving his base unmolested. The most divisive and punitive presid

At one point you just have to look at a mirror and ask, what would impress you. Also why pay anyone, when they can keep up with all the papers that not one man can read them all? That seems to me like wasted money. Another point is that t

You find it hard to believe...that Iliad was big? that 400 AD Egyptian medical practices involved quackeries?

Sure if the goal is entertainment and sports, you're right. However, unlike chess or counter strike it's downstream from a real needed utility. Like, is there a point to do it anymore? (ofc there is, but still, it's been dev

It's worth mentioning that swiss is a nation of 9 million, whereas Japan has 128 million people. I'm not sure how comparable it is. You probably don't need to pass through a lot of settlements for any public projects in swi

To put this more succintly I think, the mind loves learning something new. Something to do with new connections in the brain.

I'm sure. But can you explain more? Share that 16 years of knowledge, even a little bit?

For me the question is just, do you think it's a disorder or not. Would you take a medication for it, if there is such a thing. If yes to both, Then, it's not really you. You are just who you choose to be.

What's so surprising about it? Russia had been smashing their heads against the Ukraine wall for years now. Defending can be done very efficiently with modern weaponry. And Taiwan is more powerful than Ukraine potentially and more econ

It has a lot of good ideas that are probably true, although some are rediscovering things psychology had found out long ago. Actually you know what can cause big personality change? A good plastic surgery/facial correction. I heard it

This is in line with what I've heard a few times before. It's like self induced psychosis sometimes. Anyway, your whole world being inside your mind is self-evident to me. That is what the superego is, partly. An integrity mode

I think advocating is impossible to be done by managers effectively. There're just so many dimensions involved and it's genuinely non-trivial. The best workplace is where the employees advocate for each other. Because everyone n

When i first used netflix at my friends house, I immediately used the search bar and looked for Jurassic Park... what kind of movie service doesn't have JP, i thought. It must be around 10 years ago, and I never used it once afterward

A couple things come to mind reading this. Maybe your professor knew the material was engaging in itself or the textbook was exceptionally well written that any added structure on top was likely to complicate it. The second possibility wa

It's very rare that someone proactively tries to be more caring to others. I try to be one myself. I'm so rude and disinterested usually. Especially to other guys.
