The sibling comment answered most of what you wrote. So, I'll just add that I'm talking about the present day, not 20+ years ago. I don't know about your experience in Australia 20+ years ago, but I'm teaching real students, today, who just got out of high school, in Western Europe. Not hypothetical students 20 years ago in Australia. And based on what the Australian colleagues I met at various conferences told me, their teaching experience in Australia today isn't really different from mine.
Yes, the possible programs are enumerable, and you can start searching with the least complex programs and work your way up in complexity. Once you find a program that explains the available data, you cannot guarantee it will continue to explain possible future data, unless, like you mention, you constrain the program space to a finite set. What you're describing is generally how people make models of the external world.
Not the parent, I still think my input might be interesting.

>> My take is that 99% of the men on there are immature man children whose life is a mess.

> This is a completely ridiculous take. You sound like an asshole saying this. Have you met 99% of men using dating apps?

I agree with this. Attraction doesn't run strongest on moral lines. In my interactions it ran strong on playfulness/teasing/vibe, optimism/hope/dreamy, emotional safety, adventure/leading and intellectual connection. A protective bad boy that knows a thing or two about sounding interesting but is a mess otherwise would be attractive for the same 4 reasons (and then some).

> Statistically you are in the 90th percentile of attractiveness for men or you are lying. Either way your experience is highly atypical.

There are more options. I'm definitely not in the 90th percentile of attractiveness and my experience is atypical as well. I'd like to encourage you to keep an open mind.

>> If you want a good partner you have to be one. An app can’t do it for you.

IMO this is more relationship advice than advice to attract someone. I know many men that are good partners, but they're not good at the attracting step. Once they attracted someone it goes swimmingly.

>> the quality of my dating experience depends entirely on me.

> This is also a truism and completely moronic. I guess non-white people and disabled people, etc. who have a statistically more difficult time finding a partner on dating apps should just stop being so unattractive!

A decade ago I saw a talk of Sean Stephenson (RIP). He had an amazing dating life. I figured that if he could do it then anyone could.

I'm always unsure what people like you actually believe regarding existential AI risk.

Do you think it's just impossible to make something intelligent that runs in a computer? That intelligence will automatically mean it will share our values? That it's not possible to get anything smarter than a smart human?

Or do you simply believe that's a very long way away (centuries) and there's no point in thinking about it yet?

You’re thinking about it the wrong way.

The more RAM you have, the faster + smoother your experience using an application will be, and this will be much more noticeable if you usually run multiple applications at the same time, like virtually everyone in the world do.

This is especially true now that we have options to run local-only AI models. The next couple of years will be interesting.

Yes, and this is actually a challenge in cryptography; a random number generator relies on 'random' inputs to work properly, e.g. keyboard / mouse inputs, time of day, random electricity noise, lava lamps (https://blog.cloudflare.com/randomness-101-lavarand-in-produ...).

If these inputs or parts thereof are predictable, randomness decreases, making the cryptography ultimately weaker.

How confident are you that the government of the country you live in will use the ability to genetically trace the entire population through long range genetic scanning to harm only people you think deserve to be harmed? Keeping in mind that as long as these databases are allowed to exist, the genetic information itself remains relevant for hundreds of years?

Basically, this let's the government put a tracker on every person as long as they can get to where that person was within a couple of months to years (depending on conditions), and every future government gets to decide exactly who should be subject to that level of surveillance, what crime is bad enough to justify it. Do you trust the government of the United States 100 years from now to be that aligned with your personal views? Zero concern that a Hitler-figure could arise in the US and use that power to exterminate large numbers of people?

>Never interact with spam. Unsubscribing just tells spammers that your email address is actively being checked, and that you're the kind of person who clicks on links found in unsolicited messages.

This only applies to scam emails like newsletters from sketchy domains that you never signed up for, which are sent out specifically to find active email addresses. For those, clicking the "unsubscribe" link is indeed counterproductive.

For actual businesses like Linkedin though, it makes more sense than not to unsubscribe from unwanted emails anytime they're sent. On occasion you'll find yourself back on a different newsletter list, but it's relatively rare and more often than not just incompetence rather than malice; legitimate companies want to send their emails out to people who buy stuff, not people who mark them as spam and lower their reputation.

Typical restaurants. This is fast food though - notoriousy underpaying, McDonalds being owner of much of their real estate, everything optimized all the way, everything mass produced at the lowest cost. I'm not saying this means their labor's costs percentage is lower (it can be higher than a typical restaurant). I'm saying they have way better margins:

"McDonald's net profit margin as of June 30, 2023 is 33.06%".

As for the typical restaurant?

"The range for restaurant profit margins typically spans anywhere from 0 – 15 percent, but the average restaurant profit margin usually falls between 3 – 5 percent".

So they can cry me a river...

> It is a pretty well documented phenomenon that men with average or below average height are largely excluded from online dating activity. In real life dating of course height is much less of a factor, but for online dating it very much is.

I'm not short, but the way I'd go around it is to falsely advertise my height and charm them on the dates. Unethical? Not from a utilitarianistic standpoint if I find my partner through such a lie (the fact that a few dates had to travel to be conned versus years/a lifetime of happiness of two people doesn't compare). Moreover, I'd rather view at is being a rebel against a culture that seems to exclude short men. Given my experience about editing my pictures to make myself look more attractive (and not getting any shit about it), I think I could make it work. There's a sweet spot where you can lie a bit and not get any issues with it.

Note: during the first date I stop with any charades I was playing online. Why? Because the weird contortions of online dating are gone. I'm seeing a real person now and she is seeing me in real life too. In reality, I'm honest to a fault with people. However, when it comes to chatting to strangers on dating apps, that's a big exception with some select things (such as how attractive I look or if I'd be short how tall I am). Toxic environments unfortunately need measures that I'd view as terribly toxic in any other circumstance. People that give me an actual fair chance (or are clearly acting based on good faith) get the whole truth. Anyone else doesn't deserve it.

The attraction phase of dating sure is different than any other phase. In certain ways it is its inverse (it mostly isn't though, it's mostly the same but some subsections are inversed).
Initially I pressed S and D and thought it was some kind of joke: Only predicting and counting the F presses, so it will always be 100% correct :)

No, they don't. Getting it too right just means they are able to more effectively compete on pricing since they know the lowest price they can offer while still making profit.

Crazier things have happened in this industry.
Rough translation from German for relevant parts:

"The social network LinkedIn is no longer allowed to announce on its website that it does not respond to "do-not-track" signals with which users object to the tracking of their surfing behavior via browser settings. This was decided by the Berlin Regional Court after a lawsuit by the Verbraucherzentrale Bundesverband (vzbv). The court also prohibited the company from setting a preset, according to which the member's profile is also visible on other websites and applications."

...

"If consumers activate the "Do Not Track" function of their browser, this is a clear message: They do not want their surfing behaviour to be spied on for advertising and other purposes," says Rosemarie Rodden, legal lecturer at vzbv. "Website operators must respect this signal."

...

"The District Court of Berlin agreed with the opinion of the vzbv that the company's communication was misleading. It suggests that the use of the DNT signal was legally irrelevant and that the defendant does not have to pay attention to such a signal. That's not true. According to the General Data Protection Regulation, the right to object to the processing of personal data can also be exercised by automated procedures. A DNT signal is an effective contradiction."
Agree with that. Exceptions suck, try-catch is an infamy, and errors not in the signatures or exploitable in any way by Typescript is a living nightmare. But what I hate even more is multiple ways to handle errors.
And also the two vowel sounds are the same?
Completely agree. It just feels strange that everyone keeps using a spreadsheet that's done everything from destroying economies because of miscalculating whether austerity was bad, to screwing up multiple scientific papers in different ways; and that nothing better has come along.

Depends on what you consider an upgrade.
