like Her, but there could be many or there could be one
scienceclic also comes in an english edition. hands down the best visualization of general relativity I've seen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrwgIjBUYVc

have you seen this critique video of school of life? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlkJJygIoVU
it means a test that was supposed to check if hbo max's software can send emails correctly was run with their real email authentication somehow. I'm so curious how they managed to send it to so many people!
you're correct that this sort of persistent world modeling is needed for self driving cars, but from what I've heard from friends who work in the industry, both cruise and waymo have it. they're very far from using a…
hmm, that explains the color, but it doesn't explain the coherence. it is cool though, aerogel makes a lot of sense to use for this.
huh that's really interesting about fire's emission spectrum! regarding 6400k - even assuming the sun's spectrum matched the black body spectrum of its surface temperature, its surface temperature is closer to 5770k.…
psa: you can get this thing, which isn't the most precise ever, but lets you see this spectral information about lights for cheap: https://www.amazon.com/EISCO-Premium-Quantitative-Spectrosco... - I got one and WHEW…
What are your thoughts on how to prevent the entire class of vulnerability from being able to happen again?
So they invited the public to come watch in a venue in the north bay a year or two ago, an hour ish north of sf, and I went - it was, eh, okay. They wanted the crowd to perform cheering and stuff, it was really more…
Are you imagining this running inside a cuda kernel? If yes, the problem with doing anything of the kind is that, even if you run your kernel with one warp and mask all but one thread, you still then need round trips to…
No, there are more dimensions than just data efficiency; what I would say is that humans are just about as data efficient as you could possibly hope for _at that wattage_. It's easy to do better than evolution at…
oh my god yes. I'm frequently creeped out by how much my various employers have wanted me to be TOTALLY AND ENTIRELY on board with their mission. like, I like making awesome software, and I like customers enjoying it,…
primarily in person, yes. presumably primarily from people who frequent less wrong. I don't, so I don't really know.
So as I was writing a reply, I found that my opinion doesn't actually differ in "do we need to do a bunch of stuff"; it's more that I don't think miri is taking a useful approach. After talking to a friend who is also…
Eh... Sort of? The two organisations together would form a cult, but the community split I mention makes it a bit confusing. Overall, I agree that miri's level-of-cult is too damn high.
As someone who went, I agree. I think most people who do it right now consider the high price to be a donation to help them scale, rather than an actual product-for-money trade. I'd pay $500, maybe, if I thought the…
Ugh, there's a lot of argument about that in the cfar alumni community. Some folks take it for granted (why??? Take things for granted about such an uncertain subject???) that we're just doomed unless you Give Miri…
