I find the claim subjective experience may be illusory absolutely baffling. I can only speak for myself with certainty, but I am entirely sure I have subjective experience. All the other propositions I believe could be…
> The report complains that when asked about the age of the universe, AIs just give the scientific consensus answer of 13bn years, never mentioning that young earth creationists believe it’s 600 years old Is certainly a…
Both are damaging and shouldn't be normalized, for similar reasons.
When I grew up, I was taught that if someone in your friend group makes a racist joke, you should stand up to them, and inform them that casual racism leads to normalizing racism. Even if "Kill All Men" was just a…
Yeah that wasn't meant to be an accurate transcript of a whole conversation, just wanted to sketch out the ideas involved. The "kill all men" bit would come after getting to know the other person and talking to them…
It feels like there's almost no engagement with the actual claims I'm making. From the original claim of, "Nobody really thinks men are the cause of most of societies problems." My response was, "While growing up I was…
As far as I can tell all the data on loneliness points to equivalent rates between genders
It seems salient to ask the follow up question of "Why aren't men getting laid and/or married?" Actually finding the root cause may be much less simple. Your response seems as hand wavy to me as saying "Most of the…
It seems totally inconceivable to me that you could accurately predict how long until we will know whether BB(7) is greater than Graham's Number.
A charitable interpretation of nico is that he was saying a well-trained NN is itself a model of the world. If it can tell you what a system will do given some inputs, then it functions as a model. While internally it…
I think that the first amendment prevents congress from banning tiktok for the reason that the content is objectionable. Instead they would need to argue that it is a nation security risk (spyware, etc)
Yes, I believe that this is due to how python lets you dynamically redefine functions even to violate lexical scoping. So in the author's example: def f(x): if x > 0: return f(x-1) return 0 # Here is where a compiler…
Some of the motivation for this comes from how often devs want to contribute to open source but are intimidated by how difficult the barrier of entry is, particularly for large projects. It's surprisingly hard to find a…
Presumably because the author feels that simply characterizing the anti-crypto position as bearish doesn't do justice to the animosity many people hold towards crypto. He's also not saying he is bullish on crypto…
Is there any way to see what the expected regex was after failure? I feel like this could be a great review tool if that was added
There are standard diagnostic tests to falsify whether you have ADHD, that give a binary result as to whether the patient has ADHD/ADD. It is very easy to take one of these tests and determine whether you experience the…
At the most basic level, its because they don't a filibuster proof number of votes for it. Additionally, any attempt to regulate abortion at the federal level may be struck down in the supreme court, as the ruling…
I disagree with the reasoning for why factorial is a bad example. Factorial is very simple to explain as a mathematical function, requires very little prior knowledge. When asked why you aren't allowed to implement it…
The goals/motivations of the action is what matters here. Changing a few lines of code to state your stance on an issue won't cause any level of change whatsoever. It was clearly done to show which side of the war the…
The article doesn't specify, and I don't have the prior knowledge to understand the paper; Is there a coded implementation of this in some language or is it purely a mathematical description of how theoretically…
