An unintuitive consequence of this nondeterminism over millions of interactions is that different individuals will see different trends. IME the quality of response is accurately modeled by "luck", and people's luck can change.

So we have different population of GPT users.

An average experience might be to get a mixture of spot-on helpful responses and obvious bullshit^H^H^Hallucinations, this population might learn what questions to ask given the limitations of the model. This is really a best case scenario as people can actually get a feel for how to use the technology, strengths and weaknesses etc.

Personally my experience was the first few dozen times I used it I was amazed at the responses, I was on team superintelligence, anyone who is getting lackluster responses is just holding it wrong. But luck changes and over months of use I see now that on average the responses are just OK. But this is the case that leads to disappointment and bitter conspiracy (the superintelligence is being suppressed, give it back!)

Another population had rotten luck to begin with, and got dumb unhelpful response over and over. This population quickly determined that the AI was all hype and stopped exploring (you don't keep going back to the casino if you lose everything your first time...).

This divergence is destructive to the larger discourse, since we have fanboys flummoxed by naysayers and critics bamboozled by hype beasts.

I disagree with the idea. I run regularly, usually 40K per week, I tend to run 3 or 4 times per week. The body needs regeneration, muscle/tendons microdamages need time to heal, depleted reserve of glycogen needs time to restore. The risk of injuries will be higher. Without resting intervals stamina goes down, so consecutive runs will not be as strenuous as should be to build better endurance.
Therapy, especially something very surface-level like CBT, is less efficacious when your daily life actually generally sucks. Depression is a rational response to a shitty life that doesn't seem to be getting better any time soon. Anxiety and hypervigilance are rational responses to some kinds of difficult-to-escape toxic relationships.

It didn't start working for me until I separated from my birth family.

I completely buy that, in addition to what the article says, minorities have a rougher time with cognitive therapy because their life tends to suck more on average, in ways that you can't think your way out of.

Yeah, HN is always gonna be quite a bit further along than mainstream in terms of both depth and detail, and living a bit in the future (and as a result of this, more speculatively.)
I didn't pick up any 'obnoxiousness' from this article in particular.

Running just pops up like this because it is cheap, can be done anywhere, anytime, don't need a lot of skill training.

Thanks! We've already found your great project and we're proud to have such a strong community. It's definitely a valid approach to include more batteries.

One of the questions they ask is on alcohol (also with gambling): Have you ever suffered financial consequences as a result of your drinking.

Being super honest I answered: Yes, I spend more money than I plan on when going out frequently. (Limiting to 20$ of drinks, and it ends up being 25..this was more than a decade ago and I was fresh out of school)

Talk about endless construction, see London. Improvements come gradually with new construction, then the old are propped up/covered up/stripped-and-refaced as long as they are useful and upgraded when convenient.
> it's not a job board so the law doesn't apply

This seems like dangerous advice for anyone posting here to follow. The point about number of employees is likely more pertinent. Especially considering this from the link that was provided:

An “advertisement” is a written description of an available job, promotion, or transfer opportunity that is publicized to a pool of potential applicants, including, but not limited to, postings on internal bulletin boards, internet advertisements, printed flyers distributed at job fairs, and newspaper advertisements.
This article doesn’t explain why running is so good for you. Running can be good and provides some benefits to your heart, lung and joint health. Good for your mind if you are doing it in moderation. My heart readings improved significantly year over year based on lab results. But if you do too much running it can affect your mental and physical health adversely too.
I grew up in shithole tiny town rural state. Our town of 7000 people had a few sketchy seeming taxis that I always wondered how they could possibly work.

Then I became a cashier at the local grocery store and noticed basically the entire underclass of that town used those taxis daily. Their service was so reliable that our front end manager would call the taxis for these people while they were still checking out as a courtesy.

Yet when my girlfriend tries to get an Uber in the city of 60k that I live in now, it's a crapshoot whether there is one AT ALL, or whether it shows up when it says, or whether your driver will even know where you are going (it's not a complicated city). So maybe if taxis sucked where you used them, maybe you could have fixed that instead of fucking over perfectly working taxis for the rest of us by supporting an industry player who explicitly was trying to kill taxis as a small business.

My local taxi company didn't have to support 2k Silicon Valley priced software engineers, didn't spend some of that effort building tools to identify and blackball cops trying to stop people from using an illegal service, and didn't force their drivers to sleep in their cars to make their normal wage.
> There are many funded projects not executing for lack of captains today.

Perhaps those projects are just not viable economically, because they can't pay enough to attract the captains. Or, the owners are too rigid to pay (for example) $500k salary to a captain.
Don't forget that many of those people are fueling their drug habits with theft...theft that has gone largely unchecked. Oregon became a destination for addicts where they didn't have to worry about legal troubles that came along with drug use. All

It takes time for them to discharge, and the rate they discharge can be controlled by the circuit, just like batteries. They just are much less limited in how much power they can handle, so they can discharge the same amount of energy faster. This is a feature, not a bug, as most applications need oversized batteries to handle peak power usage which is substantially higher than average.
You wouldn't be banning that... You'd be banning substances that have similar harmful environmental effects.

Let industry and the courts argue what exactly harms the environment or is too similar. But industry will think twice about using anything similar because to do so they'd have to take on a court battle to prove whatever they decide to use isn't harmful despite being similar.
> though I'm not convinced this is as large a problem as you might think it is

Several states have legalized marijuana, and surprise, marijuana usage is at an all-time high (no pun intended). People who would have never tried it before now do so because the stigma is gone, and it's trivial to get.

This part is always lost on the "legalize everything" crowd. While marijuana might be relatively benign, other drugs are not. Removing the stigma and making it easy to get harder drugs is going to be a net-negative thing for society as a hole.

We can see this in-action already. Places like California have effectively de-criminalized most/all drug use if you are part of the homeless population. Surprise again - there's more drug use within that community than ever before. It's difficult to walk through the down-town area without seeing overt drug use these-days.

It would be better to not throw people in prison for drug use - but instead have mandatory rehab or something... while keeping drug use out of reach for the average person.
SCIENCE | Senior Software Engineer | Onsite | Alameda, CA or Durham, NC

Hi, I’m Emma Zhou, head of software at Science. In addition to a Senior Software Engineer, we’re hiring for a number of open positions you can learn more about here: https://science.xyz/careers/

Science is an early stage company developing technologies for a range of serious unmet medical needs. We are unafraid to take difficult technical risks, secure in the knowledge that with a clear understanding of what we are doing and with support from powerful modern tools, more progress is possible than might be immediately obvious. Regardless of role or team, the two most important factors we look for in a candidate are evidence of exceptional ability and the addition of positive energy to the group. As a small, very early stage team in a largely unstructured environment, the ability to independently orient yourself to the problems that need to be solved and then follow through is essential.
Science is developing a software platform that will touch every part of the company, from collecting neural data to tracking devices through assembly to streamlining purchasing. We are looking for an experienced web engineer to help build out this platform, in close collaboration with a world-class team of scientists and engineers. You will work with the microfabrication, biology, animal behavior, surgery, and ops teams to build tools that they will use every day. Great communication skills are a must, and we’re looking for technical and product judgment above all: can you ask the right questions to absorb other people’s mental models, then turn around and build things that make sense for the situation, quickly?

Key Qualifications

- 5+ years as a web software engineer, including significant depth in both frontend and backend engineering.

- Ability to act as your own product manager and track down the next project that will be most immediately useful for the least coding effort.

- A strong sense of when it’s appropriate to address mounting technical debt, and when to keep building new features.

- Demonstrated ability to quickly ship with little oversight in a chaotic startup environment.

Preferred Qualifications

- Our stack is Rails / React / Typescript / PostgreSQL. Experience with at least some of these technologies is a major plus.

- Experience with app deployment / devops.

- A healthy distrust of the cloud.

That's a good cheap option, but for me the most convenient way to power it is with USB-C. I just use the same 60W USB-C PD power block and beefy USB-C cable that I carry in my bag anyways. The cable is also much more flexible than the ones with the barrel jack I've used before, so it is easier to hold and control while soldering.
Honestly, running a mile a day, every day, would do more for most people's health than just about any other change they could make. And most people can run a single mile in less than 20 minutes. The benefits of short exercise are well documented. 20 minutes a day could add years to your lifespan. Do most people realize that?

> Then stopped. It didn't bring me any great satisfaction or insight or whatnot.

I fixed a few health problems running, and stave off others. Every mile I add is another health problem I can kick down the road. I only run 30 minutes or so 5 times a week. Around 3-3.5 miles per run depending on how motivated I am. 30 minutes is such a small amount of time but it may as well be an eternity when you consider how obnoxious internet connected life is. I feel better and care a lot less about the small shit in life. I'm sorry you didn't see the same benefit. Maybe another modality is your cup of tea.
But but but I was told drivers did this only in shitty taxi companies! And Uber is a tech company, they couldn't possibly create a system that drives their employees (IDGAF about what they claim they are) to do desperate and hostile things to keep earning enough to put food on the table.

Maybe the problem wasn't the taxi companies

I can't talk on the phone. I can't fold laundry. I can't eat. I can't read blogs. I can listen to podcasts and music; that's about it.

You can talk to whoever you're running with...

Middle-age friends lifehack: Join your local running group. Spending an hour a week jogging with people, where there's nothing else to do other than talk about running. Except talking about running means you talk about the places you've been, or why you can't be there next week, or you ask a question about where they live (because they're local like you). Small talk becomes easy because there's 0 distractions and you can always just talk about running.

The math on how you determine if someone is a friend is something like 100 hours spent together or 1,000 to be a best friend. Running together weekly is a life-hack to accumulate hours with new people.

I am highly privacy-conscious, but also rely on the robustness of tools including the Rust + LLVM compiler stack. That robustness is in part built on the high degree of scrutiny that comes with many other people using the same tools in many different ways, and reporting the problems they find. Tools to make reporting easier will help it happen more often.
Eh, that's not super concerning to me. It falls into the same pitfall as "chemical reactions aren't conscious, our brains are just lots of chemical reactions". Namely, it's the mereological fallacy: a denial of emergent properties. A single water molecule is not a liquid, a gas, or a solid. The property "phase of matter" simply does not exist until you have at least a handful of molecules.
I can not find any evidence supporting this claim.
