Reading the original work is of course its own experience and can be worthwhile for that experience. But it shouldn't be necessary in order to understand the philosophical ideas and arguments, just like for example it absolutely isn't necessary to read Einstein's original papers to understand and discuss relativity. It can give some flavor, or a better understanding of the historical development, but that is non-essential for the actual subject matter. In philosophy, however, there is a sentiment that you have to trace the historical development and debates to be able to understand the subject matter. Whereas the actual philosophical matters of fact, the truths that we are trying to come up with in philosophy, surely shouldn't inherently depend on the happenstances of the historical course of philosophical debate.

The Renaisser that I picked, the 520C, was Microsoft Surface compatible. It has two advantages: built-in usb-c charge port (vs. the weird "aaaa" batteries the stock and others take), and a felt-like stylus that felt way less slippery compared to the stock stylus. Edit0: also, unlike the stock Kobo stylus, the nib seems much less prone to wear - the former wore down in about a month while the latter is still going fine months later.

For what it's worth, it's dead simple to make Roger Dean-like watercolor gatefold album covers in SD. This is because Dean's process already involved use of randomness and refining watercolor effects with additional painting, which is similar to how Stable Diffusion works. Many of the Dean tropes just pop out for you, reliably.

What I'm finding interesting is twisting that to attempt non-Dean-like prompts within the 'gatefold album cover in watercolor' concept. It's not hard to get vibey graphics telling Stable Diffusion to paint in various mediums.

I would imagine you could do very decent Pollocks in Stable Diffusion if those are represented in the database. The artist's process shares elements with how the AI makes art.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm guilty of saying things like "Haskell does automatic currying" when in fact it does automatic partial application. But then again I don't actually know what goes on under the sheets in Haskell. It might in fact convert every multi-argument function to a nested single-argument curry-like lambda form internally, whether it needs to or not. I expect that would be inefficient (because it would cons up a lot of unnecessary functions), but it's possible. Does Haskell only do partial application when it actually needs to, or does it do single-argument curry-ish partial application of every function regardless?

I'm familiar with the Yudkowsky school of thought here; it's largely where my complaint about basing philosophy off of sci-fi stories comes from. Picking on some of the more obviously inane ideas that have come out of it, like Roko's Basilisk, is too easy, but the page you linked is a great example of the problem. I quote in full:

"In calculating CEV, an AI would predict what an idealized version of us would want, "if we knew more, thought faster, were more the people we wished we were, had grown up farther together". It would recursively iterate this prediction for humanity as a whole, and determine the desires which converge. This initial dynamic would be used to generate the AI's utility function."

This is too detached from the reality of AI development to be useful. I can't make a utility function like this, nor can you, nor can humanity. There's no reason to think a human-equivalent AI could either - the data for such a function doesn't exist, and can't exist because of how vague all the terms are. The current ML revolution is built on statistical pattern recognition. This definition would better fit a genie.

The fact that MIRI does no ML research and has no dialogue with the state of the craft only furthers my impression that it produces a lot of words with little substance.

Even if one still accepts the ultimate conclusions of the movement, using its AGI-focused rhetoric to justify restrictions on a simple image generator is silly.

You can't practically do nontrivial computation with homeomorphic encyption and the overhead would be much greater than just computing the result 3 times (think at least 10,000 times slower).

There's no generic answer to this, your controls and incentives need to be matched to the type of problem you're trying to solve and the interests of network participants.

For example, seti@home "worked" despite waste, mainly IMHO because you got an awesome looking screensaver out of it and you got to tell people your computer was searching for alien life. The leaderboard rankings also were also a great incentive for the types of people who had control over a lot of compute.

All of the dissociative drugs likely have this effect, and likely by a common mechanism. Single-dose ketamine can have similar results.

Unlike with ongoing low-dose dissociatives (which are more likely acting like a classic antidepressant), I suspect the strong single-dose effect is from cognitive changes that occur during the dissociative episode. It's oddly easy to look (metaphorically or literally) at things that would normally make you flinch (metaphorically or literally). As I once heard it put, you can only die so many times during the trip before you stop worrying about it.

I am still inclined to a slightly more cautious tone than your post; for example DXM dosing is very sensitive to body weight and 900 mg for a large man vs. small woman will be very different. At high doses it interacts highly unpleasantly, and potentially dangerously, with a number of drugs, including common antidepressants and ADHD medications. It even interacts strongly with grapefruit.

>Were you worried that others' reading skills would atrophy if they only needed to read 100 words to get the point, and so you posted 400 words while still missing a critical block of 50?

If you truly think that's why people write long-form prose then I totally understand your ire towards it -- but unfortunately that idea is so far away from reality that I'm afraid I don't understand at all.

At the risk of being an inaccurate arm-chair psychoanalyst I think that your anger and aggression towards it comes from a fear of missing out. Rather than skipping the things that are written in a style that you disagree with you read them anyway -- upset the entire time that the prose isn't written how you want it to be -- and then vent your frustrations by accusing the author or post writer of machinations that simply do not exist.

No one is worried about your reading skills. I initially had the urge to meet that sarcasm (is it sarcasm? hard to tell) with more of my own ("Oh yeah, you figured it out, that's exactly what the author meant to do") until I considered that perhaps you would misunderstand that as acceptance from peers.

My perspective in a few words : Some things don't compress. Long-form has a place in my life for that reason.

These things should be optional. As a user, I'm confident enough that I can download software and run it without any major problems. Even if it turns out to be malicious, I know how to get rid of it.

Most users are not like this. They really do benefit from a restricted experience. That's why app store and extension restrictions should exist.

The problem is when engineers go all in on the restrictions, and completely abandon the other set of users. This is software, it can have an infinite number of knobs and customisations. It's not a table, which can only have a fixed number of legs.

I'm furious about this data breach. I think our laws need to be updated to make sloppy security an existential threat to businesses. Optus should be fined by the australian government within an inch of their life. Its not ok to profit from sloppy security work then leave regular people to pick up the tab when it goes wrong.

And we need to put other companies with terrible security on notice. I think the only way big companies will move is by making their executive team sweat money.

Thats how it works everywhere else in the economy - if your negligence causes harm, you're liable. Serve bad food in a restaurant? Sued. Sell sporting equipment which causes injury? Sued. Misrepresent yourself? Sued, and potential criminal charges. Medical malpractice? Sued. But somehow, if your sloppy software causes harm thats ok? What rubbish. Security malpractice should bear the same punishment as everything else.

Maybe the price of paid software will go up. Thats fine. Maybe there aren't enough qualified security engineers. Also, fine.

If I sound contradictory it's because I'm uncertain.

Let's say I, like the people running Iran, think a woman should have her head covered in public. It's good for woman, men and all of us together.

What are my options? I can decide that whatever the individuals want the overall badness of an uncovered female head is so great that preventing that is worth sending people to jail. Alternately I could decide that the goodness of letting people make decisions about their own lives is worth the damage that an uncovered female head will do to men, woman and society.

It seems like the rule almost everyone uses is "consenting adults can do things that don't harm non-consenting adults" for everything they don't have a problem with. When they have a problem with it they just flip the script by claiming it's not really consenting. It end up being the open sesame of public policy.

The other problem I have is that I don't think the view I described is right. There has to be a place we - society, the law, whatever - can sit where we can go, "This is wrong. Even if you agree with the action it's hurting you or other people but I'm not going to send you to jail. I'm not going to help you. I'm going to keep shouting from the rooftops that this this is stupid but I'll stop short of depriving you of liberty."

The problem with my idea is that people look at that and they say, why go to all that trouble for something you believe is that harmful when you have the power to take one more little step and stop that thing. All you have to do is put one person in jail. The rest will be scared.

Ever read "the ones who walk away from omelas". It's that.
The problem is the dark pattern of endless scrolling, combined with a propensity for doom, makes it extremely easy to go from a healthy dose of doom, to an unhealthy cynical amount of doom, then slip into a self-harm inducing level of hopelessness about the state of the world, with not enough impulse control left to avert a mental health crisis and the only available action is to keep scrolling. Not everyone will get caught up in that but that's where the term comes from.
In my last house I couldn't fit even a baby grand piano and got a quote to add a modest addition to the house just for that. The cost was so high (this was Boston area) that it prompted us to immediately put our house on the market and move back home to the Midwest.

Years ago hotels and currency exchanges when traveling abroad would simply look at your passport, and maybe write down some info by hand. Then they started photocopying the passport. And now they scan it. Full color high-resolution scan.

I dislike this intensely. All kinds of random places are keeping hi-res scans of documents that are perfect for identity theft and fraud. I've tried suggesting that looking at the passport should be sufficient to verify my identity -- they don't need to make a copy of it -- but I've had no luck.

Has anyone had success at pushing back on this? Are there laws in any country that say that you can't take photocopies or scans of customers' passports?

Then can you explain to us why does google do self-owns such as 10 messenger apps?

Promo-driven development and a bias towards greenfield is something that many engineers in other large tech companies are familiar with, and articles such as this are written by former googlers frustrated with the promo system: https://mtlynch.io/why-i-quit-google/ . Put two and two together and it seems like a likely explanation in light of no additional information and a meme is born.

I come from a company that has a google derived promo system, and I believe it when promo driven development can explain a lot.

Especially when that system values certain things like new 'innovations' vs important maintenance. Or tech leadership of multi-team projects which leads to forcing migrations on the rest of the company to get multi-team points vs. a seamless backwards compatible one done behind the scenes not being a multi-team project, so you don't get promoted for doing it. Or valuing mindless metric number go up over a more thoughtful review of the real impact which, gasp, might not involve some numbers sometimes.

These systems also change very slowly and are hard to change overall. I think google still does 5 leetcode interviews back to back, right? Despite them being shown they're not very good indicators of real job performance?
