It seems like you are contrasting the "person who thinks faster" against the super-patient person, but, to me, it seems like they go hand in hand.

Thinking faster isn't synonymous with being more likely to take risky mental shortcuts.

Imagine a person who, for every hour for us, experiences an entire year's worth of time (and they can make/review notes on their ideas as quickly, compared to their experience of time, as we can compared to our experience of time. So they aren't limited to being able to keep a small amount of information in working memory.).

Would we not expect such a person to be able to consistently outwit us?

It seems this is enough to demonstrate it is at least a coherent concept, even if something as extreme as what I just described might not be physically possible.

(Of course, talking about subjective experience in this way might be a little bit of a distraction, as perhaps there is no guarantee that a highly intelligent (in the sense of "able to formulate plans and such in the world, etc. ) agent have any internal experience. But, it is at least easy to imagine. And, hey, maybe it does happen to be the case that any highly intelligent agent would have internal experience, idk.)

But, even if something that extreme (able to do as much planning and reasoning over the course of an hour as one of us could do in a year) is physically impossible (and I wouldn't be too surprised if it is physically impossible), I would still expect that there are things at least a little bit in that direction from us. Which, yes, might be be basically along the lines of [ (you or I) : Terry Tao :: Terry Tao : (hypothetical agent) ] (or perhaps iterating that analogy a few times, idk. Again, not sure how far from the limit humans are, it just seems implausible that humans are at the limit.) .

And, if in the same sense that Terry Tao is more intelligent than I am, there were an agent which was more intelligent than all (individual) humans, and wasn't guaranteed to have human-like goals/values, nor to value human interests highly, then yes, I do think that this could be rather concerning, depending on the size of the difference in intelligence, combined with what the strategic positions are.

> and people who do math by hand don't seem to fear calculator users as superintelligences despite their superior results.

This doesn't really seem like a serious argument to me?

Like, obviously people who don't use calculators, can, just, procure a calculator if they find lacking one has put them at a disadvantage? It seems a silly argument.

Regarding FOOM and such, yes, I'm not particularly worried about it, or in fact about AGI at all?

Also, the example of the Mind AIs in the culture books, is not evidence, because that is a work of fiction? The world is not to obligated to follow tropes from stories we tell, and stories tend to differ from reality in ways that make them better stories.

Have you tried arguing both sides of the point you are arguing?

I tend to under explain using lots of phrases like "it gets pretty mathy" as an excuse for hand waving details away. Most of the time I think I am doing the audience a favour but for the most part it seems like they actually want an explanation that they won't understand. I think lack of understanding gives them confidence that the implementation is as technical as they imagine it to be, and that I am actually engineering and not just talking bullshit.

Going forward I think I'll prefer to be more technical for the self advancement.

You’ve discovered a new unit of measurement - the “dating inch”. Applicable not just to height.
They used leftover carbon fiber for the roof. Sandy Munro has an episode on the i3.
The term "concentration camp" is almost entirely associated with the Holocaust.

The people using that term to describe makeshift hospitals want their listeners/readers to draw that connection.
There's a kind of funny thing here that people see being short as a kind of deficiency.

I'm about 5"8, and am actually really happy with my height - it's perfect for the types of sports I do, I fit quite nicely on an airplane, and have no problem if I were to drive a smaller car.

I imagine for taller people those things could be a hassle, that flying would be a real pain, that they might look silly on a motorbike / skateboard, and coule develop back problems from bending down.

When it comes to dating, online dating apps suck in general, but honestly I've never felt like I've missed out. People don't even seem to truly know what they find attractive until they have someone placed in front of them. I've even had this experience myself where I've found a super tall girl attractive when I'd typically go for the shorties.

It's sad that people feel the need to do these operations. Honestly, I feel they could achieve a better outcome (feeling confident / adequate) by doing some martial arts and hitting the gym.

As others have mentioned it also depends where you live. The only time I truly felt short was in Amsterdam where it felt like the local bars were packed full of giants lol. I Thailand and India I've had the opposite experience.
They are all made by Chinese companies, at least in Denmark, which makes me sad. Whatever you think of China, and my politics on the subject are obvious, my biggest reservation isn't that they are produced by an authoritarian regime but that Europe's own carmaking industry wasn't tapped. Over the long-term, this weakens our domestic manufacturing capacity and our political negotiation posture, which should be stunningly obvious by the example of the US yet once again the EU has demonstrated optics only for the short-term (see Germany's near-total dependence on Russian gas).
They are beautiful.

Perhaps I wasn’t clear. I do know that Truffle works by writing an AST interpreter for another language, but to achieve the best performance you have to map/reuse existing java constructs. E.g. I have read that perhaps Ruby uses java exceptions in a not too idiomatic way, but this is what Graal can later optimize to very good code.

My way out of depth idea with Sulong is that it uses small heap-allocated regions for every manual memory usage (it even has a Managed mode in Enterprise).

For interior point the key is writing a multicore matrix decomposition code that exploits sparsity and the range of problem structure that is encountered. For MIP it's having techniques to exploit the many different problem features that occur and ensuring that they are used intelligently.
With further scaling of the batteries, more possibilities may open.

They could be used for the heating of transport vehicles - which is not trivial, because it is easy to heat a running vehicle but not fully practical to heat a stationary one, because of the pollutants produced in close proximity.

There is suspicious clustering in the plot, at complexity slightly lower and higher than -1. Complexity -1 is also more sparse than seems reasonable from the shape/density of the cloud.

Can anyone describe in a nutshell how measures of randomness work? Every sequence generated by independent random choices is equally likely, right?
> Do you think the questionable response looks genuinely random and satisfies the instructions? We don’t.

Could someone explain why putting sequences of same choice is invalid?

Sure, a probability of having many tails continously is low but how is it not random?
Exactly. The guilt never ends, and there is always something you can be persecuted for.

The solution is not to demand that "the institutions" do something to atone for their blasphemous behavior; rather for individuals to introspect on their own behavior and the innumerable ways in which they, too, are guilty, before pointing the finger at others.

I find it immensely aggravating when those who call for large scale social action seem incapable of observing the very same tenets they espouse during small scale, every day encounters.

Being a chattel slave is orders of magnitude worse than being short. That you are not able to see that suggests that, perhaps, your personal struggles and disappointments are warping your judgement. You are 'catastrophising'.
The more compact nature of the layout means you pretty much need more than 2 rows, or fingering some things seems to become very difficult. It feels like your fingers get tangled more easily if you stick to two rows (which you do at first, out of habit). I don't think it adds much to the cost (the different places to play the same note are all on the same physical lever), but it certainly makes it look intimidating, and the "playing by touch" issue is unsolved AFAIK.

I think the physical size of pianos is why the first decent design "won"; you don't take your own piano to where you're playing, you play whatever's there. In the electronic age there's a chance for Janko to take off, as that's not universally true any more, but I'm not holding my breath.

I mean, i wouldn't really blame people when they say "energy"; because the point of cellular respiration is to produce energy.

Fat is metabolised to turn ADP into ATP which is used by the body in all sorts of thing and the byproduct of it is CO2 and water. Fat is a "store of energy" for this reason... but being strict; yes, this process produces energy, CO2 and water which is then expelled.

Interestingly, people also don't really know much about how plants "eat". Plants don't "eat" the sun energy; they use this energy to produce sugar that is then processed by the mitochondria just like we do. So efficient and beautiful!

Add Mermaid to Hugo
The proposed format is reasonably same, but you really want to prevent people from writing them by hand, and adding a bit of metadata to describe the column data types at a minimum, and ideally more information such as allowed values, semantics, etc.

To that end, I suggest that putting the tabular data file, along with a metadata descriptor file, inside an archive format (zip, tarball, etc.); that would put just the right size speed-bump to encourage accessing the data through tools and libraries (though if someone is just a bit determined, reading and editing the contained data directly isn't actually impossible or forbidden).

All that said, if you want a better tabular data interchange format badly enough that you're considering devising one, you should probably look at using something even more featureful, like SQLite:

> Those physicists who said otherwise were either incompetent or lying or both, the rest knew it but kept their mouth shut, and now they hope you’ll forget about this and give them money for a bigger collider.

This, coming from a physicist, shows how corrupt aademic physics has become. Academic physics is nothing more than old school scholasticism.

Another sign of scholasticism. You just write commentary on commentary to earn academic points.

The people saying "energy" do in fact mean CO2 and water,which are by-products of respiration (ie., literally burning fat). CO2 and water are much more stable and thus you produce energy (heat) as a by-product.

Sure, if you're accounting for mass, then yes, by mass the fat turns into the respiration by-products of water and carbon dioxide by the vast majority with a small (miniscule) amount of the mass lost to energy (the rest-mass energy contained in the carbohydrate's chemical bonds are much much smaller than the rest mass energy of the nuclei of the atoms which of course do not transmute).
I pretty much never use my kindle any more. Instead I use a Reading app on my android phone, usually in darkmode which I don't find tiring on my eyes.

>An EV is already cleaner burning coal than a petrol vehicle

That is a patently ridiculous claim.

The most efficient coal power stations approach 50% thermal efficiency. Near 15% of that is lost in power line transmission, and another 15% or so in EV charging cycle losses.

Modern diesels approach 40% thermal efficiency.

Also, this completely ignores one of the main benefits of EVs - that is, externalising emissions and pollution away from the point of use.
Many are and they still struggle greatly.

> These get 8.6 with AC on (which the current vehicles lack) or 14 with it off in those same USPS tests

This doesn't add up for me. A car doesn't spend 40% of its power (we are talking about 2-3 digit kWs) for AC. Even if its massive since its a truck and uses 10kW on peak, everything else would consume way more.
I could not talk to all my friends on only one app, as the vast majority of people were not online. If anything, a far larger number of people are still on open services today than were back then; there are just even more people on locked down services.

But why you brought this up in a discussion about the invention of the web, I have no idea.
They are equally likely, yes. But, the questions here pertain to whether or not an other person would perceive your sequence as random.

It wasn't too long ago there was an article on HN (can't find it now) describing what feels random to people.

Essentially, a sequence feels more random the harder it is to explain.

So, HHHHHHHH doesn't feel random because it's summarized as 8 H's and HTHTHTHT doesn't feel random either because it is HT repeating. Strings that are only really communicable by repeating the string verbatim feel the most random.
GP is saying it's even more than 50/50. Less than half of people are >60.
A more extreme example would be if it guessed: "You are younger than 99 years old."
> these men are being lied to about what "no makeup" looks like.

or the women knows what men are after - which is naturally good looks, and using any and all methods to achieve that look. They are so successful that the men don't notice it is artificial.

So can you argue that it is the fault of men for wanting "natural beauty"? Or the fault of the women for trying?
This is a key point in the article. The researchers (original) did not want to throw out the data that doesn't "seem random", this group argues in favour of doing so.
I fail to grasp the idea of "complexity" or "randomness" in random sequences, if we're not talking about distribution tests.
It's the same as saying 'You can offset being short by being a rock star' yes, I suppose you could.
I thought the hip and trendy thing to do would be to call it "print-rs".
Whistleblowing (real or false) is a type of undermining.

It's also a step beyond casting shade.

You're too focused on whether there is "malicious intent" to see that your description fits just fine with the initial words you were objecting to.
But if their guess is 50/50, that is from a subset that is mostly under-60's, which presumably means that they have evidence for the opposite?

(i.e. there is no statement that the 51% figure is age adjusted)

I'm probably just being silly here...
A related issue to restrictions regarding camping is the politics of zoning laws in America. As someone who works in Silicon Valley and can afford to rent an apartment but cannot afford to purchase even a condo in the area, for the past few years I've researched alternatives such as living in a mobile home and buying land and placing a tiny house on it. However, the zoning laws in many of the municipalities within a two-hour radius of Silicon Valley make it very difficult to do these things. In all the municipalities I researched, I'm not allowed to live in a mobile home on my own land unless I'm in the process of building a home on a permanent foundation. Homes on a permanent foundation must meet minimum size requirements, thus prohibiting tiny homes and thus requires spending more money for a larger place. Permits can cost many thousands of dollars, and that's assuming I could get the permits. Water is a serious issue; in some parts of Monterey County, there are long waitlists to connect to the water system, and in Cambria (a town in northern San Luis Obispo County) there's an ordinance barring any new construction until more water is available.

A part of me understands the rationale for these restrictions. But another part of me feels discouraged that the real estate market in much of California is all sewn up with no way to "hack" it without figuring out how to make $200K+ per year or throwing in the towel and moving to some other part of the state or outside California. Thus I continue to rent my apartment while trying to find other ways to get into real estate.
Functional Dependency Injection in TypeScript
No it doesn't give me the same effect, surprisingly. However it does definitely help with coding.

It gives your working memory and symbol manipulation a workout. Coding uses these facilities, but might not work them directly enough to be as good at training them. That's my theory so far.
Very cool website. Kind of "someone is wrong on the internet" crazy levels of effort! Really I think you can see that there's no trend just by looking at the graph. Always be suspicious of graphs that look like they have no trend by eye but have a solid trend line superimposed.

Would be nice if they defined "complexity" somewhere. I think the sequence lengths are too short to distinguish true random number generators from poor random number generators.

In other words what kind of graph would you see if you used a real coin? Although I guess if you sample over enough people then it doesn't matter.
New trial to banish loud engines and exhausts on Britain's noisiest streets
> Tall women face exactly the same issue as short men.

i highly doubt so. Tall women might face _some_ discrimination from men who don't want a partner taller than him, but those men don't deride tall women at all. And i think a tall women stand a better chance at initiating a date with a shorter man, than the reverse.
