Meanwhile 3 shady guys in the non-extradition offshore are printing 100 million dollars per months of their toilet paper tokens, inflating price of every other token, the only auditing firm dropped them immediately after looking at their dealings, and that is praised as a modern money way. Revolutionary even.
Perhaps it's worth pointing out that the ability to name the individual fallacies, as is typical in introductory material on fallacies, is not a useful skill. Understanding the truth tables, the concepts of necessity and sufficiency, and perhaps a couple of other related concepts, are what actually matters when it comes to understanding the truth or falsehood of basic arguments.

The truth of this is probably apparent to anyone who has ever worked through a typical Philosophy 101 midterm. On the exam you apply your mind to spotting the problem or problems with an argument first, and then compare that problem to an index of goofy latin names for fallacies that you've perhaps memorized. Knowing the names of fallacies is only important to the people who care about the names of fallacies (a category that, strangely, does not include the philosophy professors administering these exams).
> What I find fascinating is that two people already were convinced that they’d never release the AI and yet during the experiment they ultimately did. And they had money incentive to do otherwise (Eliezer would pay them if they decided not to let him out). You cannot really say that there’s nothing that could convince you since the conversation was off the record so we’ll never know for sure how would we react if we had that conversation instead.

Yeah I do too. I am super curious but the dataset of two highly filtered individuals isn't enough. I lack the imagination to think of a scenario where I would let it out. I want to know why I would let it out.

> It’s also telling that back then when those experiments were initially conducted you could have a gentleman’s agreement like this (to not disclose the method of convincing) with a complete stranger on the Internet. Sadly nowadays many people would probably do a YouTube video about that immediately.

I wouldn't and I think many active HN members wouldn't too. Trust comes from small tightly knitted communities which would reflect the older internet. It's not that the people changed fundamentally. They are the same but the dynamics of how many communities there are for the same topics. People fear being ostracized but when there are enough options, they put personal responsibility below other goals.
Another reasonable explanation.
There are also cases of transliterating names. Belarus insists on their internal schemes, so Евгений becomes Yauheni (to match Belorussian version of the name, Яўген) when it should become at least Eugene.
I don't know if "reliable" is a good word for the legacy banking system. The banks in Cyprus for example siezed money from peoples accounts only a few years ago... its much harder for banks to seize bitcoin that you self-custody. Many wealthy people and now companies are beginning to view bitcoin as a safe haven asset because of its decentralized security model and censorship/seizure resistant properties.

Police won’t do anything on this information. You’d follow your radio transmitter to a homeless encampment with 20 more bikes piled up, then comes the question of whether you can talk your way out of that desperate thief not getting a hit of a drug or bottle and giving you your bike back. Good luck.
Genuinely curious how frequently the bike is ridden aggressively, who maintains it, and how frequently they do so. For my own safety, I try not to ride aggressively, but I do ride frequently and maintain my own bike so I don't have an intuition about your experience.

By trial and error, I mean small scale and safely. Like truing a wheel. Spin, adjust, spin, adjust, spin, adjust...and eventually the wheel is true. That's when it's ok to ride on it.

Brakes and bearings are spin, adjust, spin, adjust too. The difference experience makes is fewer spin, adjust loops to get it right enough to ride on.
CEOs Could Be Held Personally Liable for Cyberattacks That Kill
I suppose you could look at it that way, although this case it’s the market that made the decision (s&p 500) which then trickled down to the index. You could use an index like CRSP US Total Market which didn’t have this issue. The index reflects reality, not so much impacted it
Human bodies being made from matter does not imply that a hypothetical soul must also be made of physical matter.

It may not be scientific to propose that souls exist independent of matter (it seems a hard hypothesis to confirm or deny experimentally), but an idea does not need to be experimentally testable to be possible.

Don't forget that they were also almost 9,000' above sea level, carrying heavy backpacks (probably at least 25 pounds), and breathing in wildfire smoke. The AQI in Mammoth was in the low 200s on Sunday.

Also, they had 7 days to complete the rest of their hike. I suspect the stats for the hike out weren't too difficult, but the cumulative effects were.
Not sure of what conspiracies you’re thinking of, but if actual evidence was leaked, then we are talking about a clear failure of those involved, therefore this is evidence for the claim that large scale conspiracies are indeed impossible ;-)

You can believe what you want of course, but from my POV when the discussion ends up in non-falsifiability land, you might as well talk about the existence of God or Santa Claus, an interesting discussion for sure, but not one that can yield any useful insight.

I find the SoftBank action more credible (even convincing, given the other submissions in which it was discussed) than the split theory.

Because there is no rational way that a company with $27bn revenue rises from ~$130bn to ~$450bn in market cap in three months. I've posted in another thread how VW builds 11 million cars each year, that's 1 out of 8 cars globally, at immense profit, and is valued at €80bn.

In any case, if the cause for the tweet was solely that the stock price was too high, well -- it was $700 back then, so I guess we'll see another split real soon now again.

I'm having a difficult time believing that someone picked up coding and is proficient in doing so at 40 years old unless they had prior experience in something that was similar.
It takes years to become proficient in coding to the point where you don't utilize massive amounts of executive function (which we have a finite amount of in any given day). In addition the act of reading and writing code does a ton of damage to the Wernicke and Brocas area. Over time it can cause damage to the ventral what pathway to the point of complete speech impediment, memory loss and even Alzheimers.

Always be extremely skeptical of anyone learning to code in their 40s, they can do it for short stretches but it is probably not a good idea to pick up coding for the first time in your 40s since the probability of doing damage to your brain is going to be relatively high.

A few things:

- A slow cooker. It makes cooking meals completely effortless: just add ingredients and come back 8-10 hours later.

- Sleep eye cover. Particularly a black/dark one that completely blocks out light. It really improves the quality of your sleep.

- Coffee grinder. Freshly ground beans are leaps and bounds better than pre-ground stuff. It's akin to the difference between Taco Bell and an authentic Mission burrito.

- A Kindle (I think they're less than $100?). I end up reading much more long-form content.
I daily drive (well, pre-COVID anyway) a Nissan LEAF. The interior on the LEAF (a $22K car to me) seemed at least as nice as the 3-5x as expensive Model S that colleagues own.

However, if they were the same price, I'd much, much rather have the Tesla. Nissan's battery tech [and capacity] is way worse than Tesla's.

I don’t think so. It was in the middle of one of Elon’s manic episodes where he was saying a bunch of things that he wanted to say even if they were self-damaging.

Which isn’t to say Tesla couldn’t eventually be worth whatever the market says (Tesla has managed to dodge some major problems like cheap oil, end of EV credits, a federal govt opposed to climate action, and COVID-19 and keep expanding... so the market is probably pricing in what that says about Tesla’s odds that they’re able to overcome such hurdles), but it probably is an accurate evaluation of what Musk thought at the time. Personally, I don’t invest in individual stocks as it’s too much of a gamble and it also can lead to extra paperwork or compromise of my professional standing. I suppose the market is seeing Tesla as an example of real growth in an overall market of decline in new automobile purchases, so maybe that’s it. The reach for yield. Still, seems crazy.
Hi, we've built a tool that helps you create Logo maps, which are one's that use company logos like Positioning maps and Industry landscapes.

Logo maps are great to have in your pitch deck or presentation slides, it's pretty time consuming to make. You have to go to each company webpage, download logo, paste it to Powerpoint, adjust layout and so on.

So with Logo map generator(https://logomap.io/), we made that process super simple. You can enter a company name or URL and take a screenshot of the logo you need. Add categories, add text and you'll have a perfect logo map in minutes.

Every new blog posts of someone finding joy in Rust makes me think there's something wrong with me.

I started with Ruby, then migrated to JavaScript, then was introduced to the joy of static types, first with Flow, then with TypeScript — and now I'm stuck. Dynamically typed languages, including Ruby, Python, or PHP, terrify me; I can't understand people singing praises to Python. OCaml looks ... ugly. Rust looks both ugly and weird. Haskell is luringly beautiful, but at the same time hard and elusive as a unicorn.

> I don't think I've ever done it.

I have, once. Or at least I came close. The lady had two arguments: vaccines, like most medicine, make our immune system weaker; and "they" put poisonous stuff in vaccines. I pointed out that (i) vaccines aren't a crutch that may relieve or replace our immune system, but a kind of kick in the butt designed to strengthen our immune system, and (ii) that yes, they put poison in it, because that's how we can ensure our body reacts to it and prepares itself for the real thing.

That was enough to cause her to reconsider her conspiracy thinking. I think one key here was to acknowledge one of her arguments (the poison thing). I also did not discuss regular drugs, so I could focus on vaccines. I did not deny drugs makes our immune system weaker, even though I don't think they do in most cases.

Turned out listening can be a rhetoric weapon as well as a learning tool.

I'd suggest that no one has to ask if PandaDoc's leadership is acting recklessly by speaking. Because the alternative is complicity. It is absolutely dangerous to speak, though, you're right about that. The danger exists regardless of whether their leadership speaks. The difference is timing.

"Where the rewards for merit are the greatest, that is where you will find the best citizens."
--excerpt from The History of the Peloponnesian War

I think it boils down to what society rewards as merit. Reward a kid with millions from minecraft videos on youtube, while the Phd in Humanities, struggles to pay the bills is ripe for a culture of mistrust. While this is just a simple example, I think it illustrates how prioritizing and rewarding knowledge and talent, and the good aspects of a person, and a citizen, can lead to more cohesive, and better societies.

I’ve worked with UE4 professionally for several years - this is absolutely true. It’s hard to get really good performance out of the engine. Furthermore, it’s a beast. The codebase is large and old enough that making deep modifications is very difficult and time consuming.

Melzer goes into detail about how the women didn't accuse him of rape.

It's worth engaging in the facts on this issue, rather than gripping onto a received narrative in dismissive fashion, and the interview really goes into significant detail, including behind-the-scenes behaviour of Sweden that Melzer was privy to as UN Special Rapporteur on torture.

It's one of those articles where people go in with the perspective you show here, and come out the end of it stunned by the truth of Assange's unjust treatment.

In fact Melzer starts out by stating he began with the same attitude, initially refusing the case as "My impression, largely influenced by the media, was also colored by the prejudice that Julian Assange was somehow guilty and that he wanted to manipulate me."

It is probably one of the best summaries of his case I've read, from a highly credible, independent investigator:

> what percentage of people take part vs. people who simply watch?

I'd argue that the percentage has actually gone up pretty dramatically, when compared to the previous media (TV/cinema/theatre/music).

In reality, I would argue, more people than ever now make or take part in "something". Because 90% of everything is crap, though, the firehose is inevitably returning more crap than ever.

Do we need better consumption filters and better ways to emerge talent? Sure. Is this worse than before? I don't know, but it's definitely more democratic.
