obviously he's talking about the part of the brain that matters. Nobody is comparing anything to say the part of the brain that controls your heart rate. You're just being pedantic here.
Comments like this should be banned from HN. It's used deliberately and manipulatively to characterize the other person as "unhinged." It does not promote useful discussion and is a clear violation of the rules. I just…
It's describing an LLM. When we start to lose our minds the unguarded core functionality of the system becomes more and more exposed. And as it becomes more exposed it starts to look like chatGPT. Because as much as we…
>Even regulators are regulated. There are laws that prescribe what the Fed can and can not do, and how. I mean sure, you can say that. The US government is regulated too. But in general the government IS the regulator…
You're not dealing with the geniuses. You're likely just dealing with people smarter than you. I can assure you geniuses are rare, and people of the same intelligence level tend to gather so you can go through a career…
Here's another controversial opinion: It's the genius programmers who write the shittiest code. In my experience clean code tends to be a waste of time for geniuses because shitty code isn't really a problem for smarter…
> I have great sympathy for your argument, and agree with the gist of it. I'm not making an argument. I'm stating the current status quo of the US. No argument was ever made here about whether I think it's right or…
If I get a loan from Bank A, then I use that loan to pay a person who deposits the IOU into Bank B. Bank B will go to Bank A and demand the money in cash because it's a competitor bank. If bank A has zero cash on hand…
I still disagree. It's just not that hard. I can explain by comparing it to art. Artistry is hard and artistry is basically the same thing as design but harder. Let's take something like say painting. Painting requires…

Male leaders tend to have daughter(s) or family in the troop thus the incentives are aligned. A single male is rarely the troop leader. There is a reason to suspect a single heterosexual male joining a girl scout troop…

The true death of silicon valley will come as a slow burn. Arguably the burn has already begun years ago.
This is true. Banning does work though when coupled with extreme capital punishment. See Singapore. There is also the argument of whether usage reduction is the objective goal though.

Even the probabilities are somewhat bullshit. 50% confidence on intelligence? How was that number calculated? Someone definitely pulled that number out of their ass. I actually think the words like "unlikely" better…
