there's a sweet spot, obviously if you go too low you're talking about barely autonomous people
sigh singularity hypothesis requires no "accelerating change" any eventually upward slope will do.
Max Weber's theories on Protestantism being the cause of success in America have been pretty much thoroughly debunked when you control for differences in aptitude amongst the religious sects that arrived to America in…
One thing I found out from interviewing a lot (for junior-ish positions) was that dynamic programming questions are actually your friend. Since it's a "hard topic" they give you a relatively easy one that can be solved…
He has Ezra Klein voice. Or maybe it's called NPR voice.
I believe the author himself said that computation improvements does make it easier to solve general AI. I think in value alignment theory there are still problems that they don't know how to do properly even with…
Stopped reading this comment after "Gladwell".
Contentiousness is a ~50% heritable personality trait, only slightly less than IQ.
Can I just say this was very beautifully laid out. Much simpler and more convincing than what I could have done. Thank you.
If you repeat the word "collapse" enough you can trick your brain into thinking you've actually explained something :P
How convenient that this supposed "spooky action at a distance" can't actually send information ftl. Locality is very important for coherent laws of physics. Many worlds is still the most parsimonious explanation which…
Turkheimer's laws are not the property of the man himself! I think it's pretty safe to say there's no clear winner on what the effects of schooling is on the margin at least. You're right to correct me on school being…
Guys before you take this too seriously, PNAS is a publication repeatedly criticized by stats experts like Andrew Gelman. NHST techniques are bad, and there are many papers showing almost zero effects of education. Plus…
Good way to get around NYT is open an Icognito window and paste the link, or use mobile which has a different article count already viewed.
Actually we do have real female computer heroines like Grace Hopper which will do just fine.
Angry rhetoric against middlemen, how predictably simplistic of you.
How is that refreshing? This has basically been the natural state of human thinking until maybe around the enlightenment. People used to just say things like "all is water" or "all is fire" in very principled assertive…
I like how the author has to ruin an otherwise informative article by injecting their paranoiac 1984 scenario in the last paragraph. The kooks just can't help themselves!
So the way to counteract information asymmetry (if we assume it exists) is to artificially enforce less information on the employers? That can't possibly be the right answer unless there's some systematic bias that…
>It was really intrusive Imagine how painful it is to be an entrepreneur with a very weak signal about how much you can pay people to remain happy to work with you without going broke and still retaining good enough…
What are the chances that in this particular case, enforcing noise in the data actually leads to better economic results? Technically less information can lead imperfect human reasoners to more rational allocation of…
Two questions about the Poverty Equilibrium: 1. Are the majority of the evil extractors (a)regional powers that impose uniform rents or are they (b)targeted extractors that specifically exploit low educated/frail-minded…
> I don't pretend to agree with every plank in our party's platform Pretends that party agrees with everything he's saying.
Functional programmers love to emphasize how all the aspects of programming that their pet language is uniquely good at dealing with also happen to be the biggest problems in code maintenance. Is there any actual data…
They have a big market share, they protect the IP, and they are technically beholden to their clients. Why wouldn't you do business? The cost-benefit for Apple probably always leans towards "Hope competitor X fails".
