Probably not intentionally but they have an incentive in not air-gapping those agents correctly, knowing something might happen. Incentives drive everything. Both OpenAI and Anthropic love those incidents as they both signal they have model

Those standardized tests seem to mix grit and intelligence and are a way better predictor of success and "intelligence" than those IQ tests. I have met a couple people that were boasting to me they were in the top 0.01% intelligen

yup exactly my observations as well. Either you are already smart and you know it and want to confirm to boost your ego (Because again? Nobody here was able to answer what are the action items out of this test). OP in this case is clearly v

OP said he was successful without ever studying. That directly shows higher IQ, low Grit. Not sure what extra information the IQ test added except the vanity and ego boost it gives someone.

Why did they need to do an IQ test though? Grit is a completely different dimension.

by siren2026 28d ago
When the test is designed, they use a wide variety of people. But the only people I ever hear taking an IQ tests are people that already know they are smart. Why? Because it probably feels good. Because why else? Is there any actionable ite

This is going to be my last reply because we are talking past each other. I think it is perfectly fine and logical for you to reply to my logical arguments with other counter-logical arguments such as: >> Why is difficult grander or m

It is perfectly possible to study the world around us without our emotions and feelings. There is in fact a ton of philosophy that has been written on this topic. Please read about rationalism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&

Ideally we should discuss all those behaviour (becoming parents, becoming successful) logically without the hormones and feelings that makes you think they are the most important thing in the world. Essentially discussing facts versus emoti

This discussion is many level deeps based on a blog post that claims having kids is the most meaningful thing you can do with your life. And other grand similar statements. >>> Raising kids is probably the most meaningful and signi

Again, feeling should not matter that much in this discussion. We are talking past each other because some/most parents in those discussion cannot get out of their self-centered view of the worlds based on "feelings". But if

Sure. But if you want a rationale discussion about what matters in life as this blog post and parent commenter suggest you probably don't want to get influenced by feelings. There is a ton of philosophy written around this. Feelings ar

by siren2026 1mo ago
They should absolutely all be discussed. I just don't see a lot of rationale that supports that having kids is the "biggest accomplishment of a lifetime" though. There is inherently nothing very special, unique or difficult a

This is a fallacy. You don't need to live a situation to be able to comment about it. Especially if we try to rationalize the choice. If you talk about "feelings", then fine. But be aware that "feelings" could simpl

Is it really? How much of that is a "feeling" that evolution made you feel in order to protect your kid from issues? having kids is the baseline normal for millions of years. As much as you "feel" that this is the most i
20.
by siren2026 1mo ago
Agree. Remember that once you have kids you are stuck in that situation forever. There is a lot of coping and trying to persuade yourself that this is the best thing in the world. It might as well be as there is no escape anyways!

When I hear people say this with all the morale high ground that comes with it I’m always wondering if it’s partially because of some hormonal changes. It has been proven recently that the human brain changes after having kids. I know you d

I agree with this. People that go to the gym see any other sports as inefficient and entertainment to a comical level. They drive to/from the gym. It's almost comical But yet, when I go out hiking or to the mountains with them the

Do you link the arthritis to climbing as a cause? Do you think it made it worse or on the contrary helped with not getting worse?

What a cool idea. Until now all of that information has been kept being gatekeeped applications (mountainproject, theCrag, 8a.nu, ...) But as usual the real issue will be to get people to use it. The network effect is everything

your response equate to "Scientific studies don't matter, my personal anecdotal point of view is what matters".

I experience the complete opposite. If I wake up with sunlight I'm useless until noon. If I allow myself to sleep in the dark until when I feel it naturally, I will wake up at ~9AM and be super fresh mentally with a lot of positive ene

For having lived in both continents, American is generally an early morning culture and Europe is generally an evening culture. There are local differences within the continents of course.

I have kids. I have an amazing partner, but can also rally the days I need to get them to school myself. But even when I need to wake up abnormally early (kids should never wake up that early but that's a different debate) I still don&

What do you think was the difference with working out in the evening or just shifting your day by a couple hours?

Yes Germany is famous for starting too early, it is an outlier. The 5 countries around where I grew up have starting times between 8:30AM and 9AM. Overall Europe is simply nor as much as a morning culture as the US. Probably because life is
