Don't confuse "Ben can answer these emails in 20 minutes" with "anyone could answer these emails in 20 minutes" Imagine you could get Elon to answer your emails. Is that perfectly interchangeable with any other human?
If that's true, you're claiming that it only accurately measures about 27% of the population yet somehow returns 66% accuracy.
It's actually still useful. It doesn't function as well as a measure of fatness for you as an individual, but that was only ever a proxy anyway. It still functions well as a measure of load on your circulatory system,…
Are they cognitively damaged by ads in ways they don't realise, or are you just uniquely cognitively damaged by them?
Maybe they prompted "make it sound like the guitars have D'addario strings"
I would expect anxious/insecure parents to use placating behaviours (like device use) themselves, and I would expect their children to be anxious/insecure too. So I would expect the study to find that the children of…
Not really, because notes do double duty. You might play a G# note in the context of an E chord (where it's the third), and then you might play it in the context of a C# (where it's the fifth). These are discernably…
Who didn't allow it to succeed?
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing. Great way to help nudge people along in musical interest.
I completely agree. While the other person replying is not technically wrong about why these things are grouped, it is kind of offensive to sufferers of Type 1. In one case, a 3yo starts randomly getting sick one day,…
Type 2, most likely. It changes for people as it progresses. But even Type 1 people will have a different experience in the early days versus years later - you don't lose all beta cell function in one moment.
But once it matters, you will wish you did!
All the listed countries have low fertility rates, increasing screentime rates, etc. I suspect if you cornered a parent of a 2yo in any of those countries, they would not say it is meaningfully more social and…
Last bit is not quite right: a lot of people want to be inside. That contributes strongly to the feedback loop you rightly identify. (WHY they want to stay inside is another matter, but I suspect a large part is the…
Isn't the problem here that third parties can use it as an attack vector?
As I clearly stated in the comment you read, it's not "in my mind" and it's not my opinion. It was an intentionally bananas statement. As I clearly stated.
Yeah, I didn't say it was wrong. But it's not new to me, I've seen hundreds of comments just like it. It just stood out to me because it doesn't appeal to any facts, or anything you would expect in this commentariat -…

Not if they have to compete with China on price, they won't
Thanks, I've been looking for a way to swipe right on your wife.
Do houses and land cost more, or less, there than the US?
Of course we might both be wrong. We probably are. In the long run, all of us are. It's not very helpful to point that out, especially if you can't do it with specifics so that people can correct themselves and move…
Then give a better one. Your objection boils down to "sure you're right, but there's more to it, man" So, what more is there to it? Unless there is a physical agent that receives its instructions from an LLM, the…
This is a way to sledge Trump, even though it's unrelated to him.
Very shallow definition of "capitalism". It doesn't dictate externalising cost as much as possible unless you have a very short-term view. Short-term view businesses get eaten pretty quickly in a free capitalist system.…
