@simonsarris @DaystarEld Would you say that you've done the legwork to think through this? I've seen one or two posts from you on it but they didn't seem to wrestle very seriously with trying to reduce animal deaths either. Or are you saying that it's OK not to care but bad to pretend to?
@getjonwithit Maybe the real lesson is that Kolmogorov complexity depends on how efficiently you exploit a state space or something? "Build Space Invaders" may not always get eg the color of the aliens the same and it doesn't matter. But in general we do care about control over that!
@Aella_Girl Clearly a lot of people suck, but you are one of the cooler and more interesting people on the internet. Sorry you're having a tough time and rooting for you to keep doing your thing.
@phokarlsson This is super interesting, by far the best reason I've heard to start reading early. Did Maud want to learn to read, or did you work through some resistance expecting that knowing how to read would be worth it?
if we cut aid programs that save the lives of more than a million human beings every year because 'we can't afford to do that anymore' and then get into another war in the Middle East I'm going to become the Joker

@AMAZlNGNATURE I think I would bet at even odds that by 2055 we'll have the reverse image (combat drone accidentally shooting down an eagle). I think this is at most the picture of the quarter century
We're moving imperceptibly from a world where Chinese academia has barely begun contributing to scientific research to Chinese academia completely dominates practical scientific breakthroughs. scmp.com/news/china/sci…
@Tyler_A_Harper I think the subtext here is a little unfair to the data people? The pollsters etc were trying to answer a very difficult question (the identity of the next president) and the humanists got to make an unfalsifiable prediction (eventually something vaguely like x will happen)
@cremieuxrecueil In my (limited) experience, ethicists don't tend to be better people than non-ethicists. This does seem like a huge problem if you start handing them moral authority and oversight. They need to find problems but have no special ability to do so.
@KelseyTuoc How do you find tiny unregulated private schools to send your kids to?
@myles_cooks Post here: eigenposts.github.io/thoughts/nonst…
@myles_cooks I wrote a short blog post on this a few years ago! I currently use a cast iron skillet for most things and I'm fairly happy with it, but people should be aware that you don't want to cook acidic sauces for extended periods in cast iron or carbon steel. Totally agree on ceramic.
@AliceBizeul Really nicely done, this feels like much less of a hack than randomly masking out patches
@taijitu_sees I like how this also has the flavor of "samsara is the root of enlightenment"
@touchmoonflower I agree that average number of hours watched per month is probably a key metric for Netflix - do you predict that a Netflix engineer would tell you that their job is to minimize or maximize this number? I don't know any Netflix engineers but would give you good odds on maximize
Today OpenAI announced o3, its next-gen reasoning model. We've worked with OpenAI to test it on ARC-AGI, and we believe it represents a significant breakthrough in getting AI to adapt to novel tasks. It scores 75.7% on the semi-private eval in low-compute mode (for $20 per task in compute ) and 87.5% in high-compute mode (thousands of $ per task). It's very expensive, but it's not just brute -- these capabilities are new territory and they demand serious scientific attention.
@cremieuxrecueil By which I am not trying to defend the DEI trainings as good or useful - I would also be skeptical if you told me that participants were made less racist by DEI based on their results on a test at the end of the training. I'd assume everyone rapidly forgets mandatory trainings
@cremieuxrecueil I think if I were forced to read a passage about racism and then immediately asked a question about an event in a famously racially charged reference class, I would just assume that I was supposed to infer the racism, as opposed to imagining it was actually there
@robinhanson It seems like a common reason to bet a large amount of money on a market would be to hedge a risk somewhere else, which would actually bias the market
@simonsarris I worked for a few weeks on a farm outside of Monforte de Lemos (near Lugo), and it's both very quiet and extraordinarily beautiful. There are a number of "miradores" in the area with stunning views of the Rio Sil. Locals know the best places to swim in it too.
