looks like the agent-judged results of an agent-built 'eval' based on some examples derived from this person's real work. and clearly part of a larger document. this kind of slop is kind of useful but opus 4 was the first generation that was any good at writing its own prompts/evals/rubrics so there's a certain sloop to it..
AI written articles about AI adoption hurt my brain
dunno! it's gonna be rich in iron and magnesium, which you need to grow plants anyway. I would think transportation cost would be the dominant factor but olivine is common everywhere
Yep nope. Play crazy games win crazy prizes. Every one of these cases is the church’s fault to begin with for encouraging their followers to believe in superstitious nonsense. Causes psychogenic diseases in your population every time. Keeping a bunch of dead popes on display and other premodern necrophiliac bullshit, what do you expect? Totally irresponsible use of their authority. Thank Christ for the reformation.. at the very least an opportunity to make the same mistakes over again.
Again: if your religion has demons, you might want to check and see if it’s a bit evil actually. And if you hear a catholic try to talk out of the other side of their mouth about how modern and progressive their religion is, don’t forget to nail them to the wall about this one. And the communion of souls. Ugh so gross
Too many honeybees! Was hoping this would be about bumbles and carpenters
It’s the additives that leach from plastics, this is now common knowledge. And yeah chromium and nickel are bad for you too. Aluminum is bad for you too but it forms a stable oxide layer. Cast iron is the way.
Can we stop the whataboutism or are we all smokers here too?
Was this written by chatgpt?
and it's exactly as embarrassingly immature as the above, because the question we really need to focus on is: can a lab leak of a GoF virus happen, what will the consequences be if it does, and should we be paying money to support that risk/reward profile?
kinda like AI; when we're doing the P(x)*v calculation, all we need to know is that v is negative big and that the number of plays is large; at some point P(x) stops mattering.
oh also decentralized file transfer.
The trick is you don't need to make it go away you just need to prevent wide-enough-use-to-cause-destabilization-of-the-thing-you-like.
The thing with viruses is that usually they are helpful inasmuch as they prevent clones with correlated weaknesses from taking over the biosphere (that's why they exist imo), but since the clones is US now, viruses is bad, and advancing their evolution on purpose is like simulating a world where our population is x times larger in order to get what a little more information about how viruses is bad for us?
idk seems like simple stuff.. govt should not be paying money for things that are bad for humans. voters are all humans after all
nuclear fission. note all the folks complaining on this site about how there ought to have been much more of it but muh regulations.
Could we please stop doing gain of function research in mammal/bird viruses anyway? That'd be great.
The basic idea is that a rogue superintelligence could turn us all into paper clips. After all it only takes one.
this is true but for companies instead of people, and it'll be worth 100B+ in 10 years
Yes, hello. It seems to be a matter of emphasis and sane defaults. Narrative is all about controlling emphasis. Film vs digital changes the default choices around which you build emphasis. Noise is an unreasonably effective tool for creating depth to contain emphatic range, so removing it from the defaults is going to create affective flatness on the margin.
Treating a document like a 2d text buffer is the root of all evil. Treating a document like a string is even worse. Emacs does both, so does everybody else. The big idea is mapping the doc to a tree of nested structures whose schemas define constraints, which constraints define the editing and viewing semantics of the parts of the tree you're looking at. Also lisp should have won the 70s and we're not done relitigating that. Also he has a 5 year plan to prove this all.
Still deciding if I buy it. only wants 1000 bucks a month to work on it full time, I think exploring the area is worth that at least.
doesn't just build muscle-- heals cartilege. fixed my tendonitis
> A settlement on Mars could conceivably preserve our cultures and current civilization in the face of such an event.
huh. most honest answer I've seen so far. "We're going to mars so we can later to go war with Earth, ideally when they are weak"
BTW Do you guys think building big chemical rockets just automatically advances your matsci/chem/bio timeline? It doesn't. That's the effect of massive government cheese.
Fun fact about the age of discovery: shit was already discovered. Domesticated food, fresh water, and abundant friends were already there.
The universe is bored of generating new challenges for your particular kind of aggressive. It has lots of fun new problems for people who are willing to work together though. Sorry.
found the goldbug. afaict inflation is great for indebted earners, bad for savers. Still waiting to learn why hoarding tokens is socially beneficial behavior that should be rewarded.
Sorry you can't predict the future of your stuff just by putting it in a contract. But nobody promised you that, and there are bigger problems to solve than the perfect autonomy of your resources. I guess your only hope is that the limited, motivated, holders of extremely large bags of capital will be able to move your regressive philosophy forward. Oh look that's what happening lucky you.
no reason to clutch your pearls fellow bougies, the fed will fix it
Kinda seems like ChatGPT in particular is a customer service agent mashed up with a snapshot of the internet.. all these "hacks" are just routing around the customer service parts that we find grating-- though maybe the problem solving stuff is coming from there.
didn't they like hire a bunch of people to ask and answer questions and use the responses to train the model?
calm down guys the holidays have been rough but let's keep bringing the big boy energy. Here's a pull quote for you
> “..from the degenerating brain’s microglia cells to enter the brain. It could be the degenerating brain activates these cells and causes them to clone themselves and flow to the brain,” Gate said. “They do not belong there, and we are trying to understand whether they contribute to damage in the brain.”
Interesting result right? Sounds like a definite maybe. Seems like correlation vs causation is really hard with brain degeneration. Sure would be nice to have a grand theory but maybe the theory is death by a thousand cuts. call it the i-dont-even-know-how-many-billion dollar question
all of these things have already been happening for a long time. no jobs == priced out
Pretty sure slavery is corrosive to the slaveholder too. Source: slack ass economies love slaves
"bhahahahahahahaha" - nobody at the Comedy Store
adopt. you've reached the endgame help noobs
I mean your advice is correct but if you choose to only look through half of the binoculars you're not going to get depth perception.
