Yeah, a friend of mine found a (non-religious) service like this for help with porn addiction. Not my cup of tea, but I could see it working for many people.
So a fortiori, it's true for him too! I wouldn't necessarily exclude myself from the set of people who would benefit from externally managed filtering.
> I can't trust myself to see things I disagree with, I am so weak-willed... The thing is, this likely is true for him. Most people are not equipped to deal with the onslaught of aggressive memes from the internet.…
"Alignment" as practiced by companies like OpenAI is precisely the extrinsic enforcement of echo-chamber behavior from AIs. You have precisely inverted reality
Can't you just count a change like this as constructive termination and demand severance anyway?
How is this a tragedy of the commons?
Yeah, for an illustrative example of assortative mating effects, consider the stereotype of the rich nerd with the hot wife. Kids are smart and attractive. This plays out at every pareto level in the sexual marketplace.…
> The proper Bayesian response... since both "being male" and any race are very weak predictors (see my other comment upthread). I saw your comment - you don't understand how bayesianism works. Look up "odds ratios" for…
This would have some extremely interesting population-level genetic consequences if it was accompanied by some sort of social change to allow polygyny. In particular, it would reduce the correlation that exists across…
Every single bayesianism advocate is aware of this. It's so obvious that it's implicit - there's simply no need to state "95% of crime is committed by men"; this is completely uncontroversial and does not need to be…
I mean, yeah, this is kind of obvious if you think about it. The majority of violent crime in the US is committed by black people, so inherently a marginal increase in any other ethnic group (including hispanic) would…
When exactly do racists/bayesians shy away from this fact?
I assume twitter has like 7 million times as many accounts as whatever this website is though
People have to internalize that for a site like this, 99% of your traffic will arrive in 0.1% of the time your site is up. Unless you want to lose the vast majority of people who would otherwise read your content, you…

I think engineers (esp in areas like SF) are especially vulnerable due to their relatively sedentary lifestyle, dietary proclivities (e.g. consuming stuff like soylent, vegetarian/vegan diets deficient in cholesterol…
You responded to my comment in like 8 seconds so you obviously didn't even glance at either study.
That's not what I meant, but I suppose there's also a correlation there. I was referring more to the fact that coastal software engineers tend to be testosterone-deficient as a group, which strongly affects political…
