There was a fun recent variant on this game using LLMs, asking GPT3 (3.5?) to encode text in a way that it will be able to decode the meaning. Some of the encodings are insane:…
That is a very poor regulation. Why enforce wheel lift? What matters is that the chair doesn't tip over - that the center of gravity remains in the center of the four wheels.
Hindawi is the worst. They solicit book chapters, pretend to be peer reviewed, but any peer review is cursory. You can tell because they have published books on homeopathy and on the theory of Chinese traditional…
Is that a serious argument against an AI pause? There are potential scenarios in which regulating AI is challenging, so it isn't worth doing? Why don't we stop regulating nuclear material while we're at it? In my mind…
1. The religious nut doesn't have the knowledge or the skill sets right now, but AI might enable them. 2. Accessibility of information makes a huge difference. Prior to 2020 people rarely stole Kias or catalytic…
The only thing keeping bioweapons from being easy to make is information becoming easily available. > Essentially you are advocating against information being more efficiently available. Yes. Some kinds of information…
Why not? It has already been shown that AI can be (mis)used to identify good candidates for chemical weapons. [1] Next in the pipeline is obviously some religious nut (who would not otherwise have the capability) using…
You have much more patience than I. After the second email type I deleted my account.
When dating in Korea women would guess my height to 2 cm higher than I am tall. Which was very eerie, because I correct my gait with 1.5 cm high insoles. I would estimate most women there have an accuracy of +/- 1 cm,…
The problem in Korea at least isn't with meeting people (well, for 80% of the population), it is young couples feeling they can't meet the finances required to satisfy social norms, and thus deciding to delay the…
I got a CR subscription to look at air filters. For good air filtering you really only need a hepa filter ($20) in front of a fan ($20), but CR only analyses the performance of brand name products ($200).
> Are DMCA claims under oath? Yes. DMCA claims are made under penalty of perjury. > Being prevented from publishing a video someone else created, say, doesn't inhibit your right to express any opinion (aka freedom of…
The real answer is that the US doesn't want public transit. I visited a rustbelt town several years ago, and a new mall had been sited specifically so that it would not be on the bus network: being accessible to the…
Under the Sherman Act, the criminal penalty for conspiracy to monopolize is up to 10 years in prison or $10M for individuals, and up to $100M for a business, OR up to twice the monetary benefits to conspirators OR up to…
DMCA claims are made under penalty of perjury. Perjury is usually a felony.
False DMCA claims are perjury, which is (at least in some states) a felony. The rationale is that the DMCA gives complainants the ability to restrict others' speech, and so the law wants to strongly disincentivize abuse…
The main reason people continue using it is due to the network effect (xlsx files are considered shareable) and the fact that people are trained on its features and interface. That does make it valuable, but that…
There are some Islamic traditions which have created art of Muhammad. Lots of examples at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depictions_of_Muhammad .
This is a nitpick, but likenesses of cartoon characters are protected by trademark rather than copyright.
Their 'offering' is totally artificial. Prices are low because suppiers aren't permitted to offer lower prices elsewhere. They have a history of blatantly abusing their monopoly position. The law even includes personal…
Offering free shipping is not a problem. The problem is that mandating your suppliers subsidize free shipping and don't sell for cheaper prices elsewhere is blatantly anticompetitive, and has the effect of raising…
On the contrary it is very testable: look at number of grandchildren in families with different moral beliefs and cultural norms. Can look at whether the grandchildren thrive, too.
I would argue that rather than stability a lot of the puritan instinct comes from a desire to see one's children thrive. The relevant analytical unit at the small scale is the family: I don't want my kids to be…
I've gotten a few phone calls like that. A few years ago living abroad it seemed to be a targeted sales pitch for one gender (ex. makeup). Would hang up as soon as I answered, or pretend that they needed the number of…
As a slight counterpoint to this, there is a lot of implicit knowledge and group cohesion in most workplaces that immigrants can have a very hard time picking up on and integrating into. When I moved to another country…
