The article doesn't appear to suggest a viable substitute for IQ. It concludes that we should "[measure] what an intellect can accomplish in a lifetime," but this isn't really practical.

IQ is not a perfect measure of intelligence, but I think it's better than no measure of intelligence.

… in Nuerotypical populations.

This study mentions but provides no data or analysis for how their study is impacted by or was affected by the differences between nuerotypical and autistic samples. Which is a shame because as an autistic person who doesn’t like eye contact, I think those findings would have been much more insightful and potentially groundbreaking. My hope is the authors have plans to look closer at that.

The website linked, and it's associated information all absolutely scream red flags and is functionally similar to a hoard of other schemes. It's a technically simple product (distribute binaries from a webserver) with a completely arbitrary cryptocurrency stuffed onto the side, allowing for bombastic, buzzword filled claims which just defy reality. It attempts to promote itself by driving users who will get some form of profit sharing as part of their participation, promising some sort of rewards paid by the creator.

> Package maintainers will publish their releases to a decentralized registry powered by a Byzantine fault-tolerant blockchain to eliminate single sources of failure, provide immutable releases, and allow communities to govern their regions of the open-source ecosystem, independent of external agendas.

It's existence is an attempt to justify the creation of yet another cryptocurrency, not as a serious solution to any problem that exists in distributing software.

>To me effective altruism is just a mantra to justify bad behaviors in the name of altruism.

What are the "bad behaviors" being justified here, and how do they relate to effective altruism? From wikipedia:

>Effective altruism (EA) is a philosophical and social movement that advocates "using evidence and reason to figure out how to benefit others as much as possible, and taking action on that basis".[1][2] People who pursue the goals of effective altruism are labeled effective altruists.[3]

>Common practices of effective altruists include choosing careers based on the amount of good that the career achieves, donating to charities based on maximising impact, and earning to give. Popular cause priorities within EA include global health and development, animal welfare, and risks to the survival of humanity over the long-term future.

Edo-kiriko is one of 2 great glass traditions from Japan; the glass is thick, feels similar to Murano glass, with the edges of the cut pattern "sharp".[0]

There is also a tradition of thin glass (without etching), where the glass is blown to be paper thin and you can feel it flex as you hold it.
This is called Usuhari - "Usu" means thin and "Hari" means glass[1]. Shotoku is the best maker, creating a variety of specialty drinking glasses of many shapes.

I have a small collection of Japanese drinking glasses at home which I use regularly and freely use with friends[2] - everyone loves drinking beer or sake from the Usuhari glasses. Shotoku actually did a collaboration with one of the Edo-kiriko makers, by blowing a small sake cup with a thick Usuhari glass ~ it's amazing, and I use it as my personal spirits cup.

[0] Not sharp enough to hurt, yet very noticeably present.

[1] usuhari glasses are exceptionally thin at 0.9mm. Paper is ~0.1mm, so I'm slightly exaggerating.

[2] less expensive than the Edo-kiriko.
It will be ok in the long term. It has the resources to overcome its current issues (most of them self-inflicted).

However, the next decade or two might be quite difficult. To be fair, there is some justice in it. You (collectively, as a country, not you personally) cannot keep voting for the same failed ideologies and then complain when the consequences come. This needs to be the end of Toryism as it currently exists. Conservatism in itself is fine, but the combination of chumocracy, alternative realities, and rabid nationalism is toxic and destabilising more than the UK.

[edit] just look at the peerage thing, or the way prime ministers have been chosen by party members. This just cannot go on for long if you want to keep the pretence of a democracy.

It’s going to take 20 years to resolve, and that’s assuming they start today with an Apollo-program-level investment in energy production.

Isn't that Regression to the Mean[1]? You have two tests, A and B. You take the best N samples by score A, then look at the corresponding score B. Regression to the mean tells you to expect scores B to be lower than A.

The classical example is taking the same random test twice and seeing a lower result the second time around. In the post there's a correlation between the tests, so the second test will not have a low value in absolute terms, but will be low relative to the first one (negative correlation). Taking test B before or after the filtering shouldn't matter.

My intuition is that this sort of selection picks some samples that got "lucky" on test A, and will score closer to the mean on test B, bringing the distribution down and obscuring or reverting any potential correlations.

From a certain viewpoint, I think the "little fanfare" is a good thing. I certainly prefer it from grand-standing declarations that somebody will end up in jail before any investigation has been performed. Yes, it seems like a pretty straight-forward case. But still.

I'd prefer it more if this standard of restrained would be applied everywhere. It clearly isn't, and that is a problem. Not only, but certainly also, because it makes one wonder if the restrained is motivated by CYA.

> Choosing what to spend time is harder!

I've realized that the boundaries have given me more discipline than when I had none.

Before kids, mortgage and a work visa, I would just pick something up and spend 4-5 weeks on a single thing before hitting a plateau. Then the going gets tough and there's a new thing which I could dig into right around the corner. Everything I did was at an unsustainable pace and it did broaden my horizons, but it was very much like dating.

First the commute ate up the first hobby, the kid ate up the next hobby, but then the pandemic kicked off the hobby mode all over again. I almost went back to the old approach of hobby-crazy, but I couldn't with two kids in the mix.

My rate of picking up new things have dropped to about 1.5 a year since 2020, but it's spread out onto a weekly schedule where I don't always have to drop the last thing I was doing to pick up something new. Also I no longer want to "get great" at things.

I still jump into new things without prioritization, but I no longer burn twice as bright for half as long in my hobbies.

Also the kids will drag you back in too - I'm going to go gokarting every weekend for the next year, because the alternative is sitting there in the bleachers with the phone.
Financial fraud has some of the stiffest punishments that there are. Every single charge generally carries up to 20+ years. Madoff, for instance, ended up getting 150 years.

Of course Madoff ripped of the elites of society while SBF ripped off commoners and gave to the elites, something like a reverse Robin Hood. Real surprise the Sheriff of Nottingham doesn't seem quite so interested in his misdeeds in our tale.

Of course if you never do any of these things, you will never find the evidence for serious charges. Just for once try prosecuting a white-collar fraud like it's another minor drug dealer.

> which is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine. Consumption of about 2 milligrams of fentanyl (the size of two grains of rice) is likely to be fatal depending on a person’s size.

I don't understand why they keep bringing this up when they talk about fentanyl. Vitamin D doses are measured in micrograms. The daily recommended dose is 10 micrograms. Can you accidentally ingest 2 milligrams of Vitamin D? Unlikely; the pills with the maximum dose are listed at 5000 IU, which translates to 0.125 mg. You'd need to swallow 16 such pills, and that requires quite a deliberate act.

The last canonical example of Intel refreshing their naming convention was with their Xeon line up which is now utterly incomprehensible, at a glance you used to be able to understand what was going on;

EX-YZZZ vA

E3 - Rebranded Desktop Class parts with ECC support

E5 - High-Desktop & Regular Multi-Processor Server parts

E7 - High-End Multi-Processor Server

Y - Denotes Socket Support.
ZZZ - Denotes a model number, indicating from low to high increases in features, cores and/or clock speed.
vA - Denotes Generation.

Xeon E5-2980v2 - is a high-core count server processor for use in dual socket servers, belonging to the Ivy Bridge Generation of parts.

The new naming "convention" is as follows - from a glance can you identify any information from this;

Xeon Bronze 3204

Xeon Silver 4214R

Xeon Gold 6212U

Xeon Gold 6342

Xeon Platinum 8280

Xeon Platinum 8380

Xeon W-2295

Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum - are so unclear as to be meaningless - there are dual socket Silver processors more capable than some Gold processors.
W prefixed parts are Workstation parts.
The First Digit bears no connection to anything (except in the platinum series where it denotes 8 socket capability), perhaps PCI-E Lanes?
The Second digit apparently denotes generation.
The Suffix denotes that it's only capable of running in a single processor configuration - except when it doesn't.

Ohh, and the 'E3-**** v*' convention still stands for desktop rebranded parts.

It's a complete mess.
It does touch on that point:

> The anti-fentanyl antibodies were specific to fentanyl and a fentanyl derivative and did not cross-react with other opioids, such as morphine. That means a vaccinated person would still be able to be treated for pain relief with other opioids

The idea is to remove the fentanyl's effect while keeping the effect of other opioids that are harder to get. The issue with fentanyl isn't the drug use itself, it's the fact that it's too potent for the level of carelessness of your typical dealer/junkie. They can still get high on heroin with a lesser risk of dying.

Yeah, I don't really get it either. If the artist didn't matter, there would be a huge market for people who can simply copy the most popular artist's style and yet, from my perspective from the anime industry (where AI generation has been especially controversial), that just isn't the case. Companies still pay large amounts of money to get stuff done from the most popular artists despite there being plenty of people who can imitate the style.

Similarly, fans tend to be able to recognize the artist and follow their work too. AI isn't going to fill that hole because the artist does matter.

AI won't replace artist jobs, although it'll make new kinds of art possible.

Python has nothing to do with Forth, they couldn't be more opposite to each other if they tried. I recall Chuck Moore in a Silicon Valley Forth Interest Group meeting express his disappointment at how modern programming languages (and Python was among the ones mentioned) that are advertised as "simple" are anything but.

Python is an enormously complex language, full of inconsistencies and bad design. However, it masks that complexity behind a facade of user-friendliness which has done wonders for its popularity. Forth is not only as simple as it gets, but also an elegant and totally honest language. That Chuck Moore managed to distill the essence of programming in this form, speaks to his genius. Unfortunately, as is often the case with genius, it can be decades to centuries until the ideas percolate and emerge in a popular fashion.
