@aquariusacquah college dems are always hilariously passionate about milquetoast uninspiring mfs i remember meeting some diehard cory booker fans (in 2016) and lemme tell u that shit is unnatural

@jeff82874662 fking m*n not having memorized the AP English syllabus

nobody's talking about the congress to podcast pipeline https://x.com/BusinessInsider/status/1293208339002937349

@jachaseyoung elon musk's natural talent as a quasi religious leader, and steve jobs before him. they both carefully catered their image to become larger than life, as people who make ridiculous pronouncements and have them come true, and to have fanatic legions defend their companies

@jeff82874662 its strange and true tbh that while all the nerds were busy trying to get it to code the place where it shines best is making dropping actually funny lines. works especially well when you're looking for a slightly absurdist tone

@jeff82874662 but i think real twitter humor often involves deconstructing these tropes and making even more powerful jokes

@AOCummies @browserdotsys gonna hack the battery to stay permanently at 1% and become a living god

@kurtodaniel prlly being super blackpilled in physics academia

you've seen word2vec, now it's time for vec2word https://x.com/soona/status/1293686975074099200

@fadnavismehul i'd switch but i'm scared of becoming one of those people who switch between 12 different todo list apps and 25 different note taking app only to realize the fundamental problem was themselves 😀

@fadnavismehul more seriously id rather not switch for a small inconvenience like this tbh, i'll try and find a workaround. what's your suggestion tho?

@discourseloverr @CJ2K98 its a valid form of civil disobedience to simply not know what tf people are talking about

@HamSandwitchMan @kurtodaniel is it good? i generally don't read popsci stuff anymore

@AOCummies adjacency adjacent

even the words “personal crm” fill me with deep existential horror, everyone ive met who was passionate about it seemed like they were printed in a womb tank in a DNC lab

@man_ditch this but unironically

@NicholasElodeon @TheReal_MKP @morganisawizard dude nice charity gala last night, how did you get so many celebs to show up?

imagine posting this interaction on twitter https://x.com/lachancenaomi27/status/1293711987231293440

lol instantly blocked

@nectarina12 lmao... politics is the mind killer

@nectarina12 seriously what level of mind rot does it take to reach this point https://x.com/lachancenaomi/status/1293716302947909632?s=20

@colinmort @AOCummies this is my all time favorite twitter rivalry

@selentelechia wait how do you schedule it

@homsiT a gift? a curse? the debate is ongoing

@AdmiralOPG @selentelechia im an applecel 😔

not wearing pants while im on conference call is the most action i get these days

@browserdotsys seriously is there not some simple vision model that will do this for us

researching novel 0day exploits, cracking arcane cryptosystems, etc: lame, boring, barely ever works hiring a hot girl to do “social engineering” on some engineer with dashboard access: fun, easy, 100% effective

@AOCummies solid flex 💪

@aquariusacquah blackpilled again

@aquariusacquah wee all made fun of her but she’s looking real prescient now huh https://x.com/ekp/status/991817194987114496?s=21 https://x.com/ekp/status/991817194987114496

tbh the Chinese could exfiltrate all of our “AI secrets” using this method

@eigenrobot @goblinodds poast wpm robot

@AnKolTakes @aquariusacquah big tech and big finance love top tier phds in anything quantitative, it can be a good career move if you know what you’re doing

@AnKolTakes @aquariusacquah physics PhD dropout at Goldman Sachs is basically a meme at this point, but these days it’s more like physics PhD dropout doing adtech at Facebook

@AnKolTakes @aquariusacquah and it’s not even like it’s limited to elite grads from top 10 schools. If you manage to get a big publication, the headhunters will come looking

@aifjs brain rot plain and simple

@aquariusacquah @Rationalbot @AnKolTakes true it may not make a huge difference financially but they often get to work in more researchey roles e.g. data science which imo more interesting than engineering

@aquariusacquah @Rationalbot @AnKolTakes my point being it’s definitely not a stupid highly risky waste of time like a lot of people make it out to be

@Willyintheworld @aquariusacquah @Rationalbot @AnKolTakes which is sad tbh. We have a major underallocation of top talent to biopharma stuff

@Rationalbot @aquariusacquah @AnKolTakes you got some source on that? At $600k I feel like we’re talking basically only star ML researchers

@Rationalbot @aquariusacquah @AnKolTakes oh definitely, I just mean for someone from a top lab 2 years into their career

@Rationalbot @aquariusacquah @AnKolTakes at the height of the deep learning craze they were hiring phds right out of Andrew Ng’s lab for like $1+ million/yr, but these are rare cases. I have a friend who recently joined FAIR, and what they pay him is similar to what they pay a senior engineer

@Rationalbot @aquariusacquah @AnKolTakes obv they’ll pay the real “stars” eg Mikolov, Lecun way more than that

@AnKolTakes @jerrrrryyy_ @aquariusacquah multiple PhD friends have told me this was their experience. That the offers they got after their first big publication were of a way different caliber than before

@AnKolTakes @jerrrrryyy_ @aquariusacquah but they’re all stats phds so yeah maybe doesn’t generalize

@hallucinexed Nah Apollo pwned those baby witches, everything should be fine now

ah, so u think u had an original idea. well, buddy, here's a 40 tweet long thread i made from 5 years ago where i already said this ↓

@meiliguo21 imo the proposal is stupid anyway, but the lane is for self driving *buses*.

@meiliguo21 my thing is that self driving vehicles should be able to operate on the road with other human drivers lol. its not a good investment to build new lanes for them. but yeah bus lane better than car lane

@AOCummies wait wtf i thought i was copying your content

everything i know about poasting, i learned in the poasting dojo of my sensei @AOCummies

@Noahpinion was not alive tbh only exciting space things that have happened in my lifetime are spacex stuff

@AOCummies want to RT so bad

this right here is what separates poasting amateurs from poasting professionals, folx https://x.com/AOCummies/status/1294138521804918784?s=20

@Westphalite the R word pass was inside you all along

@eigenrobot was gonna commend you on maintaining interest for so long and then i checked the timestamp lol

@eigenrobot anyway, watch Mob Psycho its v funny

@The_Geraldoid @eigenrobot I think someone replied

seriously this dumbass acronym probably measurably increased their market value https://x.com/Austen/status/1294158425299939328

@AOCummies AOC >>> and its not even close real ones know

@eigenrobot nigerians have been stealing valor for too long

which party will you be voting for in the November presidential election?

@jeff82874662 @AOCummies this explains why white women love drew

@AOCummies botox

@sonyasupposedly very Hegelian

@AOCummies lmao your name has become a whisper in the wind, a jihad that you can’t control

IG Reels is pretty garbage ngl

@PeetoDuss avid cunsoomer yeah

@noahopinion @AOCummies The legions of Muad’Drew will fill the galaxy

@kpopobama fulfill this mans dreams

@aquariusacquah bro please ask ben evans to unblock me

@nair_rohit98 yeah the fact that they thought this would be convincing at all is amazing to me

@nair_rohit98 it should've been a whole separate app. they should've clone each individual feature one by one

@Randylad yeah its a ridiculously bad faith argument lol

@Randylad apple won't cede anything tbqh the legal battle will end without generating any results like all the others before it

@Randylad i don't see why he can't just admit that they're acting in their own self interest, rather than some noble protection of the cunsoomer lol it's a megacorp we weren't expecting philanthropy

@Randylad is he lowkey on the Apple board or something?

@Randylad e.g. peter thiel call out google for evading the monopoly title but completely avoid doing the same thing for facebook

@jdcmedlock @ne0agent1c Medlock thought falling to pieces

@rickyflows reach for the stars kid

@hobbsure1 @AOCummies is this tweet about you?

@eigenrobot otoh the high iq may end up getting memed into very strange ideologies but they mostly do astonishingly well at defending their own interests

@eigenrobot yeah my heretofore politically apathetic mom now watches like 8 hours of MSNBC a day

@Noahpinion all of this is absolutely absurd there’s just a deep unseriousness to the way these trials function. zero sense of urgency how do we not have an entire set of testing machines set aside for clinical trials? roughly only a thousand people participate in phase IIIs

@xander76 @Noahpinion @markasaurus vaccine trials present their own issues. to reach the statistical power needed (since only a tiny fraction will actually contract corona) you need to get a lot more trial candidates

so ... did apple or google ever come through with digital test and trace?

@jdcmedlock @Noahpinion he didn't say that he said he wouldn't vote

@AOCummies doxxed

@AOCummies this is entering my drew database

@donuts4hair thats a pretty silly design

@donuts4hair data privacy is a total meme literally bottom tier priority for 99.9% of people

@donuts4hair and the other 0.1% probably would rather have their data collected by apple than the government

@man_ditch poggers

@jachaseyoung seems to me that real science is sporadic and comes in bursts as well thus the annus mirabilis of einstein

@jachaseyoung true that most academics are not inventing relativity but doing very incremental work, but i daresay that artists can also pump out incremental work at a rapid clip

@jachaseyoung stephen king writes an enormous volume at a more or less regular pace

@jachaseyoung moreover, there were 10 years after 1905 in which Einstein did incremental work, until he had his so called "happiest thought" and worked like hell to generate another miracle: the general theory of relativity

@jachaseyoung maybe they are mystical, i don't know newton had a nervous breakdown during his late 40s (or so) and said he could never think again at the same quality as he did before he did no further great work from there on

there is no class of people so dangerously stupid as Econ freshmen

@_AlastairX_ @NicholasElodeon alright then explain AOC having an undergrad degree in Econ and supporting a national rent control standard

@neolibureaucrat lil bit of both the folks destined for Econ phd are probably not doing Econ in undergrad

@theirfanator @NicholasElodeon honestly once they learn about empiricism it gets even worse

btw this is not a complaint about Econ 101. It’s about folks who think that organizing society is a solved problem and econ is the answer. Ppl who haven’t yet learned skepticism for social science results or abt the incredible failure rate of technocratic finagling

@SocksxMC ok fair enough

@_AlastairX_ yup

@_AlastairX_ that was my intention here but the wording was vague enough that i doubt most ppl picked it up

@eigenrobot @MaryJackalope @selentelechia doxxd

@Drninja13 i aint globe twitter

@ProfitProfound damn nice find

lol https://x.com/NateSilver538/status/1295094106486706176

lmao

he’s talking about the people who stay as though they’re battle hardened survivors rather than the people with fewest options

@hiphiclub agreed

@David_desJ they’ve hopefully gotten a broad enough view to not buy into their own hype

still feel this will end up being a very important concept paper in ML https://arxiv.org/abs/1203.2990

@HamSandwitchMan yeah am interested in counter arguments

@alth0u yeah it’s a very soft approach but the core idea feels important

@ProfitProfound you need to examine your privilege for being in the self control aristocracy

these are ridiculously low carbon prices all things considered https://x.com/noahqk/status/1295401966693228550

@AOCummies rip to the victims but im different

@browserdotsys anon accounts are so powerful

@ProfitProfound @browserdotsys ya I’m not even networking tho too pu$$y to state where I work or link my papers or anything worst of all worlds

@AOCummies i got a better idea, we addict them to our corporations like space McDonald’s space Facebook etc and then they work for us at slave wages

@AOCummies @The_Geraldoid will build the space Vatican and convert them to space Catholicism

@The_Geraldoid @AOCummies holy crap im on it

@AOCummies Warhammer 40k, Starship Troopers

@AOCummies unironically lots of scifi is pretty fashy bc it often features superhuman godlike main characters who are just better than everyone around them and lots of militarism e.g. Dune has a God Emperor but it's more like space feudalism than space fascism

@gigafelon @AOCummies Eisenhorn is solid and approachable

lmao Andreessen unfollowed me

@AOCummies most incredible subplot to me

@WilliamGrobman @AOCummies yeah its fashy but *humans* are the master race lol

this prehistoric song describes something called a """Good Feeling""" truly the ancients were a different breed,,, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OnnDqH6Wj8

@jachaseyoung yeah i was like 13 the last decade feels like one big unpause button, between the End of History paradigm and whatever's happening now

@The_Geraldoid @AOCummies kneel, before the God Emperor of the Cummieverse

@jachaseyoung growing in the last 10 years has been incredibly desensitizing tbqh a lot of us were somewhat panicked by the trump election briefly and then totally accepted it as the new norm its only in the last 1-2 years that i've gained enough perspective to see the End of History ending

@jachaseyoung taken in full, it's hard not to blame all of this on the dawn of the mobile internet, and the globally interconnected masses. the arab spring is the clearest to see. less clear for the election of trump and rise of authoritarians across the world, but i suspect the internet

@jachaseyoung political cultures that had previously evolved into stable niches became unhinged by rapid technological change. cultural evolution has been jumpstarted again and accelerated to lightning speeds. i think very few science fiction authors / futurists could have predicted this

@MiloJKing @AOCummies yeah this is my favored Great Filter theory

@jachaseyoung the chinese state is abnormally resilient, both due to geographic isolation and ethnic homogeneity. if the Lindy principle is anything to look at, they'll probably outlive every western country

@jachaseyoung yeah, Mr. Xi has been actively calcifying the Chinese state and destroying the scrappiness and localism built by Deng xiaoping and successors it seems like a disaster in the making

@jachaseyoung there tend to be extremely strong selection effects for the smartest people in asia to emigrate to the west. this problem is more economic than cultural. e.g. if the employers in india had paid as much as the american auto companies, my parents would've never moved here

Drew Muad'Dib sits in his lonely throne as Padishah Emperor of Mankind, wondering when and where he lost control of his fanatic legions of AOC worshippers https://t.co/PNIRUwkFoH

@Cullen_OK amazing book, strong endorse basically invented modern SF

@AOCummies i take special joy in knowing that your cum posts pop up somewhere in marc andreessen's feed

@aquariusacquah worst news of my life

@AhmedMedien @kpooya @ElliotComite ridiculous take lol

@nectarina12 rip to all men but im different

@aquariusacquah delet this

ok everyone take this and report back to me https://www.idrlabs.com/gender-game/test.php

@The_Geraldoid how do you have to be a dick?

@_Jason_Dean_ ahaha check the other reply

@_Jason_Dean_ FTR im also 100% masc

@The_Geraldoid i find this test hilarious bc i completely and vehemently disagree with you in the opposite direction

@The_Geraldoid if one option gives out more money to some subset of others, and i personally don't lose anything i would pick that 10 times out of 10 IMO that's much more altruistic than going for equity

@The_Geraldoid lmaooo

@seemorematt exactly

@jachaseyoung YES but this test is a classic "scissor statement" ive seen people who were in disbelief that you could get anything other than 100% fem

@jachaseyoung i guess the point is that fem coded ethics value equality even before total reward

@jachaseyoung !!! so strange right?

@_AlastairX_ broke: going for equality woke: going for total reward, contingent on not personally losing anything bespoke: worrying about inflation cheapening your money

@bmock beautiful

@bmock read the questions closely, there's many cases in which your payout doesn't personally change

@leaacta @thesravaka @PereGrimmer but apparently also famously value equity/equality

@thesravaka @leaacta @PereGrimmer dont shoot the messenger i honestly find it fascinating that people are out here getting 100% fem and being like "wtf how could you do it any other way" makes me feel that this test has tapped into something real

@sonyasupposedly @thesravaka @leaacta @PereGrimmer here's the thing: your instinctual framing of priorities makes all the questions look the same many folks see these q's and don't come to the same conclusion, thus the "centrists" and 100% fem coded folks

@jachaseyoung @_AlastairX_ agreed, but it probably says something about our moral and political instincts

@PereGrimmer @olivertraldi @spiderfoods @erin_nerung they're the same

@PereGrimmer @expucodaguma lol what did he say it was instantly blocked

@pjhurray hell ya buddy

@polyaletheia that was my thinking too. you'll find it shocking that many people get 100% fem

read this thread for ppl who are confused that you can get anything but 100% masc https://x.com/selentelechia/status/1296282723191939077?s=20

@leaacta @sonyasupposedly @thesravaka @PereGrimmer btw i totally agree my first reaction after taking it was that you'd have to be insane to get anything other than 100% masc

@gbrl_dick yup i can sense the net outcome masc vibes

@DrewliganLul seriously made me so mad to begin with lmao now im just curious it also adds up with why majority of neolib/libertarian adjacent people are men

@ALotOfOranges fairness

i'm just happy this quiz has made everyone mad as fuck https://x.com/tszzl/status/1296268370858385408

@alamamoops lol nah its you're revealed preference that you don't like fem-fairness-coded people

@alamamoops i agree with you lol, i'm equally morally disgusted. but look through the replies to my thread

@browserdotsys @halvorz @AdeleDeweyLopez @selentelechia bowser yes

@selentelechia @browserdotsys @halvorz @AdeleDeweyLopez this is interesting, didn't even occur to me that people might be mad about their payouts just curious would you say you're more left or right aligned w.r.t to economics?

@alth0u @browserdotsys gotta look out for the Tribe

@alth0u @browserdotsys interesting thing is, both extremes see themselves as some kind of provider rather than selfish feminine coded is maximizing egalitarianism and masc coded is maximizing everyone's utility

@ESYudkowsky checking back on this, I think this was more prescient than I would've liked https://www.gwern.net/GPT-3

@neo_globalist @NicholasElodeon i dont particularly care about the EU but youve given it some good aesthetics & propaganda so i like it now

@alan_forrester lol read around the rest of the replies its not so simple

@eigenrobot @InNeedOfPurpose i thought it was boring, then i found out it was divisive

@ellegist the only good reason to poast is to make everyone confused and angry

@hallucinexed @UnhWut tbh the mecha is an extremely thin veneer most of the episodes dont even have robot fights

@hallucinexed @UnhWut if you got past like episode 8 ish and didn't like it i don't think you'll be a fan it turns to magic around ep 17+

@wongmjane anecdotally, you can go through my replies and see that it does indeed seem gender coded nearly every dude goes for the maximizing total wins

@jachaseyoung touchy subject too goes against blank slate theory

@jachaseyoung but we've made everyone confused and angry and that's what's really important in life

@jachaseyoung i'm waiting for the perfet 50/50 score so i can declare them the Kwisatz Haderach

@AOCummies ya like a certain @AOCummies

@voidSession the ambiguity is by design

@KlipstingJackal none of that is true but carry on

@NickRReese some people want to maximize total welfare

@browserdotsys somewhere the attention span aristocracy is laughing at us

@sonyasupposedly i think it makes sense in retrospect. i was so aghast that people wouldn't pick pareto optimal that i didn't get it at first

@jazzyjermaine some have really odd priorities that you wouldn't think of. plus you didn't read the questions close enough w.r.t to masked strangers etc

@sonyasupposedly vague correlations, not gender essentialism: masc view life as man v nature struggle to maximize payouts / extract total value from the world femm view life as man vs man conflict and prioritize group stability and "deservedness"

@sonyasupposedly i'm thinking back to some anthropological reports of matriarchal tribes that would shame hunters for bringing back way more than the rest of the hunters, since it seemed to create status imbalance and disharmony

@sonyasupposedly lmfao to be clear i posted the quiz bc i sensed a high probability of everyone ending up Mad

@ProperOpinion based

@PereGrimmer thinking real hard to somehow connect this to the rising tides metaphor

@phikickspisbutt @maskoficarus look through the replies

@4d3d3d3d3 yeah you don't need an econ degree to do this lol, it's to test your moral intuitions

@natal_female @jachaseyoung thousands of years of bene gesserit breeding schemes foiled by an odd number

@sonyasupposedly on this blessed day we are all Coping

@AOCummies everyone blackpilled today

@ommateum_io so its fem coded to assume everyone is a fairly petulant child?

@ommateum_io including named friends but also masked strangers

@jeff82874662 lol are bonobos gonna surprise us by being wild maximizers?

@jeff82874662 @PereGrimmer @Aella_Girl lmao

@vgr would've been surprised if you got anything else, tbh

@vgr was waiting for this one too, but now i realize the current design of the test is more ingenious than if it did that. all questions had only one pareto optimal solution, starkly illuminating the difference between egalitarians and maximizers

can you imagine, in the future we can shorten the poasting delay from the seconds it takes to type to milliseconds it takes to think

@ProfitProfound agreed, i only stop liking when something is so dumb/aggressive i'm not willing to entertain anymore

@ProfitProfound eigen and drew go further than this and fave even the true garbage that gets dredged up

@The_Geraldoid interesting take would you rather be fundamentally corrupted or dead?

@OldDreyfusard @The_Geraldoid "When a creature has developed into one thing, he will choose death rather than change into his opposite."

@OldDreyfusard @The_Geraldoid every person/institution has its own breaking point. even in something as treacherous as politics tbh i feel i would probably choose an uncomfortable amount of corruption before my breaking point hard to tell when we lead such comfortable, uneventful lives

@visakanv Ananya

@visakanv great grandfather's name is Janaki, but it sounds more feminine than not so there's one south indian name ig

@PereGrimmer neither racial camp accepts her lol

she'll text me back when i hit E5 bro cmon

@PeterWesteros @AOCummies these are the worst class of people

the taking a lot of stims into not being able to sleep into needing stims to combat sleep deprivation pipeline

@culture_think @ChrisExpTheNews @polyaletheia @Cullen_OK the lack of context is what gives the test its power

@AOCummies hell ya, we can watch 24 hour fox news with our last two brain cells

@powerbottomdad1 the adderall into melatonin&drinking pipeline

@_cancelculture_ true ... all the managers are married, all the junior eng are not. coincidence? not likely

@KnowN0thing1 @DrewliganLul @AOCummies yeah i'm thinking i'm writing in Drew

@irishdrug1511 @visakanv yeah just now remembering, full name Janakirameya

@mattparlmer read through my replies and get blackpilled

@mattparlmer yes its been breaking my mind for quite a while now and @sonyasupposedly 's too

@ProperOpinion @jamescartermin1 @mikeyinhouston sorry regarding what exactly?

@ProperOpinion @mikeyinhouston lmao yeah this quiz is collapsing minds out here

@wannabegroncho @almostlikethat @sonyasupposedly It seems fairness/utility axis undeniably has high dot product w M/F axis

@ChrisCroy @JustJoshinYou13 false positives >>>>>> false negatives

@eigenrobot i've tried but they all have unsearchably common asian names. Brian Wu's of the world never have to worry about infosec

@eigenrobot whereas if you search my full name you just instantly get everything i've ever done on the internet lol

@NicholasElodeon all the good takes are from nick and all the bad takes are from friend

@NicholasElodeon real convenient dude

@_Jason_Dean_ im waiting

@_Jason_Dean_ @OldDreyfusard @SpecialPuppy1 i don't think this is a hot take, this is basically what obama said in response to romney's bullshit about Big Bird

@_Jason_Dean_ @OldDreyfusard @SpecialPuppy1 "like deleting text files to save hard drive space"

@aliramzan000 refollow me bitch

@edavidds every stupid ass thing that happens here reverberates in the real world lol

he said on twitter dot com https://x.com/naval/status/1297080832046141441

@jeff82874662 id be miserable and id probably start talking to myself but I could do it

@jeff82874662 what if I bring an egirl but platonically

@homiesteader @jeff82874662 then ill bring @homiesteader and teach him how to code

@browserdotsys it’s honestly incredible lol his list of misgivings about gpt2 were basically taken down point by point and he had the absolute nerve to double down

@browserdotsys but it’s not like transformer methods don’t have enough positive marketing, im mostly just embarrassed for him

@browserdotsys the other thing is, most of his examples don’t seem to display the weakness he is trying to point out, and some I’m sure have undergone a sort of negative cherry-picking

@jamescartermin1 @Noahpinion deeply impressive* to have the balls to be crass on the internet with your real name attached

@browserdotsys this but when I think of a really esoteric joke and find out that I already tweeted it 1.5 years ago and realize that I probably have the same few thoughts every couple months and convince myself that they’re novel each time

@browserdotsys 😞 blackpilled again

@tolmasky this seems a bit exaggerated

@tolmasky @browserdotsys so you would have a web browser with a bunch of kludge that only allows payments through the Apple ecosystem

@tolmasky @browserdotsys when andreessen was making mosaic, he was desperately trying to build a payment processor into the browser itself but found that bank digital infrastructure was too far behind to allow for it

@ne0agent1c Elon is a really terrible poaster, trump too much of a boomer, and zizek not ideologically predisposed to farming internet clout That leaves us with aoc, who fits the profile: very online, decent poster, loves celebrity

@peaktransit is dying 😞

tbh I think there is something to the idea that the West is individualist and the East is communitarian

Zen Buddhism appeal to westerners shopping for eastern philosophy bc its ideas as commonly understood are deeply individualist. boddhisatvas who achieve enlightenment via nothing but deep introspection and walks through nature

it’s a much closer mapping to the Free Will doctrine of Christianity and the ideal of personal salvation than any other eastern philosophy

Hinduism otoh is communitarian; the core text, the Gita, basically consists of Krishna convincing Arjuna to go to a battle he doesn’t want to partake in since it’s his holy duty “I have already destroyed everyone fighting here today; you will simply be my instrument”

@ChrisExpTheNews nah just making a circuitous argument lol, it’s the exception that proves the rule

I have less context on Confucianism or traditional Chinese culture but I know it stresses community, deference, and social harmony more than anything in the west

@ChrisExpTheNews This tweet thread inspired by yours earlier today lol

@Cullen_OK yes https://x.com/ChrisExpTheNews/status/1297197268827811845

@ligmadesigner very true, everyone out here with parasocial relationships to social media personalities and brand identities

@ligmadesigner i would argue that both types of culture leave some human longings unfulfilled. Individualist cultures leave people lonely and atomized. Communitarian cultures stifle free expression and personal agency

@bryancsk will fully admit I don’t know a lot about Buddhism, you’re probably right about this distinction

welcome to the wet market of ideas

@qin_duke @Noahpinion someone had to say it

@jachaseyoung incredible

extraordinary https://x.com/RichardBSpencer/status/1297439514244214784

@tabongkima It’s real

@ShazCoder @tabongkima The tent just got ten feet wider

saying slurs and being crass is a political statement

@jdcmedlock delet this

@jdcmedlock you win this time

@nataliebeatrice it’s actually a good one appeal to couple million years of evolution instead of our relatively blank slate reasoning

ngl i don’t think linking an ecology of pro ccp opinions for biological study is the same thing as platforming them, but he should’ve been clearer about what he was doing

wrong they’re summoning a powerful ant demon and your modern “”science”” can’t understand https://x.com/biolocousb/status/1297403469096198144

@aquariusacquah no chance imo lol it seemed like some china ppl had been on his back for being unfair in his coverage or w.e so he made that post to let off steam

@powerbottomdad1 deservedly

@jerrrrryyy_ Not gonna say his name lest I summon him

@woward3 @nataliebeatrice absolutely yes

@maxdunat Noah tweets for an audience of one :)

trojan horsegirls dm me https://x.com/eigenrobot/status/1297641815902834688

@neolibgraham lmao genius branding

@powerbottomdad1 ofc you aren’t wrong, but (1) poverty reduction in China in large part is a matter of US trade policy and (2) since they’ve developed from the object of pity stage to a Great Power rival, we should treat them as such

@jeff82874662 we’re gonna change history Jeff

@radicalgusto @woward3 @nataliebeatrice none of it is required but here's a pascals wager for you (1) it's an irrelevant trait, and it won't harm us to eat it like monkeys do (2) its an important trait for reasons we cant yet explain (chesterton's fence), and it will actively help us to eat it like monkeys do

@radicalgusto @woward3 @nataliebeatrice anyway there's my meaningless sophistry to justify eating a banana without the peel

@powerbottomdad1 Beijing Biden 😛

@efficient_tax @ValyrianLib hell ya buddy

@p1nkpr1ncesa 2093 will be lit

@efficient_tax @ValyrianLib thats what ive been sayin https://x.com/tszzl/status/1217280742830616577?s=20

reject modernity, return to monke

forming a garage band hedge fund with any twitter acct that predicted corona early on

his mind ... https://x.com/AOCummies/status/1225621531147063297?s=20

@aquariusacquah perfect, we already have a name and and investment thesis

@AOCummies i still don't know if they lied or not lmao

another shoo in https://x.com/mattparlmer/status/1221901021229744140?s=20

@mattparlmer yeah I think the reason the market didn't react in the first place was due to the massive uncertainty of Fed response

@globe_shill @WilliamGrobman confirmed not in my hedge fund

@eigenrobot hell yeah, but as soon as we add a robot we go from hedge fund to high frequency trading

@ne0agent1c yeah, i remember this! marked you down in my mind as "powerful autist"

@ne0agent1c def first draft pick

@gbrl_dick this ones an all timer

@_Jason_Dean_ based

@WilliamGrobman @The_Geraldoid @globe_shill strictly speaking you were correct but wrong emotional valence of the prediction

@averykimball @whoevennos @gregeganSF iirc Axiomatic by Greg Egan

@DanielleFong you're in!

@mattparlmer @_Jason_Dean_ hes just impressed at the quality of your prediction

@PereGrimmer i've always identified more with asuka but imo she learned to resent and dislike shinji as the show progressed, but clearly started as a tsundere character. i don't know how else to explain the reveals in ep 22

@sagar__dubey @_AlastairX_ @ProperOpinion @eigenrobot @sonyasupposedly if freakonomics is topwit lit i don wanna be topwit anymore

@AOCummies drewmer*

@AOCummies nooooo not like this

@sonyasupposedly @mattparlmer @gigafelon @jeff82874662 careful, if you matt with this blackpill so soon after the gender quiz he’ll go catatonic

@ResonantPyre @ne0agent1c yeah the level of careful genetic endogamy in the indian caste system also suggests that maybe something important of this nature is what's happening there. it's another question as to how successful they were

i cant take this metric seriously anymore

why do we have a disgust instinct for (mostly harmless) insects?

seems we should be terrified of mice and other small mammals due to potential disease vector but I’d much rather find a mouse than a centipede

@CarmagueUSA weren’t insects everpresent in early human environments?

@NicholasElodeon remove kebab

@replicaofself Y u do this

data driven journalism folx https://x.com/FiveThirtyEight/status/1298094878182846465

@aquariusacquah @RadishHarmers damn he calculated the discourse 2 years into the future ... definitely LP material

@mattparlmer quite a few examples of actual epidemiologists spreading “caring about corona is racism” type stuff

does anyone know if this is real? https://x.com/zebulgar/status/1298103747386605569

@eigenrobot empirically speaking first time I shot a gun was this year so

@Inductivist this would probably push more people over the ledge than talk them down

@rickyflows @eigenrobot was a good time. much harder to aim than i imagined tbqh

@sonyasupposedly spoken like a 100% masc

im certain everyone who ever worked on IG stories or IG reels copiously uses the term "ZERO TO ONE PRODUCT" on their job apps and linkedin profiles

@halvorz Charter Cities Institute Would Like To Know Your Location

@asteroid_saku @Willyintheworld agreed

The new startups of the rona era really drive this point home: being fast to react is more important than being smart

@leaacta exactly

@ProfitProfound that bitch Alcmene doing this all the time

@NeoLibBen not if you keep being first to react. The standard economic models almost never apply the world is in constant flux, and there’s never time to reach competitive equilibrium

@NeoLibBen when the possibilities frontier completely changes every 5 years, this basically is never true. If it were true, Microsoft would’ve made the iPhone, google search, FB style social media, etc

tesla bears love to point out EBITDA multiples like they've made an incredible discovery

@Hellachans @Hellachans

@powerbottomdad1 he never once missed in his whole life

@IDoTheThinking bing images 😍

@AOCummies @ me next time

@Cullen_OK can’t believe this MF writes down the entire karmic ledger in a book. think we need to modernize with some blockchains...

@PereGrimmer @centerf1re @alth0u truly garbage infantilizing movie

@PereGrimmer @centerf1re @alth0u the wokes always end up being more racist than everyone else in their efforts to be woke

@LittleKeegs0 the fuck u say

@MiloJKing delet this

being a nice person or not is entirely uncorrelated with whether you have access to the magic list of words high status people avoid

@nectarina12 based

@jeff82874662 saying slurs doesn’t make u a bad person and avoiding slurs doesn’t make u a good one

@jeff82874662 but i dressed it up in the patois of a tech bro idiot

@Rahmeljackson yeah very overrated

I’ve long since forgotten all the Rubik’s cube algorithms but my fingers remember ??

final proof of model free reinforcement learning

@haizleeey it’s a trick. Im actually a dumb as balls

@alth0u yeah not always but more strangely it seems pfc can aid lower level learning without retaining connections of its own

always has been https://x.com/Virtual1nstinct/status/1298657504067497989

@homsiT @aquariusacquah in my experience incels are almost never libertarian either authleft or authright

@homsiT @aquariusacquah bottom right's greatest crime has always been being insufferably cringe modern tech bro manifests this

@homsiT @aquariusacquah https://x.com/ekp/status/991817194987114496 maybe she was onto something tho

at some point I seriously have to decide what this account is actually for. I have people from the top AI labs and at least 1 tech billionaire following me and I spend most of my days retweeting a man named “@AOCummies”

@alicemazzy the Guild Navigators were famously short sighted and bad

@ProfitProfound @AOCummies actually yeah why not think of a good pfp for me

somehow the man Ken @aquariusacquah manages to toe the line but he’s just a poasting god

oh and crazy plot twist is that mr. cummies himself has a tech billionaire follower lmao

@JohnCarltonKing yeah but also have to answer why inter state migration is at record lows

@browserdotsys tfw had the same exact tweet idea and sent it to my drafts bc i cant compete with uwu cute egirls

still some of the most interesting research of our time. can't wait to find the hidden bioeletric pathway that makes catgirls real https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjD1aLm4Thg

@BarneyFlames @browserdotsys they definitely still have all these story problems, only thing is that nobody ever retains any of it

@BarneyFlames @browserdotsys hell after reading my physics textbooks replete with history of science i only remember the formulas and not the cute stories about Faraday

if Tesla achieves even a small autonomous robotaxi fleet by late 2021 or 2022 it'll durably become the most valuable company in the world

18 months into the future. you can suck my ass and my 900% gains mr quantian https://x.com/quantian1/status/1079485504121434112

@alth0u the greatest debate in California subcommittee on gig economy, locked after 10,000 hearings of heated argument

@jeff82874662 the IF is doing a lot of work in my tweet here. i think its potentially tru tho

@jeff82874662 lets do it, this weekend, crank that bish out

@paul_hundred i love twitter for making the cost of confident predictions go way up we will find u years later and make fun of your snark

@Noahpinion stunning and brave

this bad bitch is my fashion inspo

@ccneill still HODLing

@quantian1 the rising tide lifts all boats mr quantian

@quantian1 C O P E

just read the comments under any national anthem youtube vid to get globalismpilled

@alth0u hell ya buddy

@rwsscott unrealized

math is real, mathematical objects are alive,

@DrewIigan @AOCummies printing drew's handle on the side of my AR-15

@billpshort @mattparlmer @wolftivy @DuneNews what we need in these dark times

@Hellachans life comes at you fast

trepanation is lindy

cut a hole in your head to commune with the gods? yeah im thinking thats LINDY

after Noah tweeted the being woke = religion take its officially uncool and normie now, come up with new material

@guywhits Roon

@eigenrobot but robot,,, https://x.com/tszzl/status/1299501799364268033

everything is discovered, nothing is invented

public school according to tech twitter: 2 hours hard labor in the coal mines 3 hours making fun of gifted children (them) 1 hour Ta Nehisi Coates lecture on antiracism 4 hours homework assignment of emptying the ocean with a bucket

@jachaseyoung now we’re cooking with gas

@jachaseyoung yeah lol have already had people proudly tell me they’d never get a brain implant buddy good luck with that you’re competing w a bunch of living gods who are better than you at every last thing

@coinaday1 @jachaseyoung forget neuralink, we’re speaking of BCI in general simply surviving is not enough to satisfy most

@jachaseyoung anprims forever coping tbh

@Austen @spakhm pure cope

thoughts?

@jachaseyoung extremely excited for the possibilities. My mom is epileptic and high fidelity neural mapping would be a game changer for her and many others

@jachaseyoung i find it quite disturbing that folks are this pessimistic about novel technologies. they jump straight to the scifi scenarios of self driving cars being put in strange moral quandaries instead of the simple fact that they could prevent millions of mundane deaths a year

@OswaldHurlem Yes

@ellegist laziness combined with inability to keep the finish line in sight

@jachaseyoung wow! crazy coincidence. My mom lost her license after a similar event, and the loss of mobility has been pretty awful for her. Neurosurgery is too scary an option given her pretty low frequency of seizures. Implant tech coming along would be a dream come true

@jeff82874662 I will never

@AOCummies it’s in a therapists best interests to make you a repeat customer 👀👀

@ProperOpinion @halvorz @TheAgeofShoddy @eigenrobot you havent seen shit until you've seen Macronist imperialist twitter accounts

@ProperOpinion @halvorz @TheAgeofShoddy @eigenrobot

@ProperOpinion @halvorz @TheAgeofShoddy @eigenrobot

@ProperOpinion @halvorz @TheAgeofShoddy @eigenrobot so glad i discovered this man. introduced me to a whole new world

@AOCummies oldest job in the world

@sidkap_ @stephenjudkins @JustJoshinYou13 This? https://x.com/tszzl/status/1295435387981176839

@koaleszenz @intensivemargin lmao

@jachaseyoung lab grown biomass sounds spookier honestly

@elonmusk @Teslarati how far are we from a vaccine?

we‘ll have strong autopilot long before network connectivity allows something as latency sensitive as driving to be outsourced https://x.com/nikitabier/status/1300081013599559680

@ProperOpinion lmao although there is something to be said about human in the loop guidance on slower decision making stuff

@ProperOpinion dunno haven’t thought it through. but maybe like, parking in a crowded lot without parking lines is a difficult corner case for the AI but doesn’t require high precision/low latency of normal driving

@ProperOpinion yup exactly

@ProperOpinion I’m sure there’s always going to be some 0.1% of cases that will require a human touch

@ProperOpinion and you record each of those human interventions as training data for the next time

@DrewliganLul stunning and brave

@bigassglobe69 Fuccccc

completely correct and greatstagnationpilled https://x.com/realityspammer/status/1299761535963848704

@Westphalite im thinking the second Cold War might bring us the highest probability conditions for more Big Science

@aquariusacquah @AOCummies evergreen https://t.co/XEBHoHVjeF

@Westphalite @ilikeadamsmith i dunno, it’s not really a matter of money. we’ve lost the institutions that allowed that kind of R&D in the first place. The national labs have all been taken over by various interest groups in the absence of the urgency of war

@Westphalite @ilikeadamsmith i think they’d just use it to score some points in the culture war imo pretty blackpilled on Dems atm

@koaleszenz @AdotSad which puts him on the same level as CDC, WHO

@eigenrobot very wise

@eigenrobot there came a point when I realized additional data was actually not Improving my understanding and completely gave up on doomscrolling

@peaktransit no spiritual progress has been made ever since

🤔

@kpopobama tfw the pioneers of the internet are Drewligans

@ProfitProfound @DrewIigan @AOCummies all tech bros are Drew adjacent

@natal_female have we? can you think of any game changing discoveries in the physical sciences?

@DukakisDude There’s absolutely no chance you can convincingly determine causality on that lol

@_vivalapanda @natal_female yeah new paradigms Quantum theory has been around for a while

@dewittd @natal_female picking the base rate of progress is a matter of faith more than reason tbh I will pick the early and mid 20th century bc why not

@LibHawkChip @AspiringNeolib @DukakisDude very possible to take something into account and still come up with bad statistical analysis

@natal_female are nanotubes used in anyting outside of scifi? true on lasers and transistors but these were invented in 1960 and 1950 respectively (roughly)

@gbrl_dick incredible stache you look like the ideal which every brooklyn podcast guy tries to reach except doesn't quite achieve

@natal_female so, we've done awesome work on scaling up and engineering. but any fundamental leaps? starting to think the conclusion is the exact opposite of yours -- engineering is having its heyday, whereas science is stagnant

Arrival is actually an improvement on the Ted Chiang short https://x.com/MommaUnfiltered/status/1300468848685187072

@rejuvyesh true, but imo the geopolitics stuff + the way the twist was pulled off made up for it. was definitely more emotionally invested

@jachaseyoung dont' get me wrong! the short is great, but I thought the movie did some excellent stuff

@jachaseyoung @homsiT "Hell Is the Absence of God" is fantastic. My version included "Exhalation", which was just as good, but I don't know if its technically a part of this collection

@jonshea what was inconsistent?

@jonshea i thought the movie was strictly determinist without saying it in as much detail

@ProfitProfound go to hell bitch

@ProfitProfound PP tryna trigger everyone today

yes but everything would be named after a lord of the rings character so the tradeoff not worth it imho https://x.com/antoniogm/status/1300609901572419584

@antoniogm thank god. without them the tech industry would've undergone namespace collapse years ago

@jonshea she was navigating in a haze, clearly didn’t have perfect access to all her memory past and present at any given time different from the book but not inconsistent imo

@billpshort pros: everything is run by Elon musk cons: everything is run by Elon musk

“chinese politicians are engineers and technocrats” is a bad meme they’re generally just Red royalty and buy their way through whatever degree looks best for pedigree

@eigenrobot unfortunately an engineers job is to topple Chesterton fences and see what happens

@jeff82874662 @browserdotsys poast statement bowser. I promise I won’t email all the CS departments in the country and see which one responds with the right footer

@aquariusacquah if any of my coworkers ever find my twitter im quitting my job

@Randylad said it better than i could

@jeff82874662 @sonyasupposedly @ProperOpinion jeff always looking out for me. i still got shooters out here

@normalhandsome it negates the implication that education/profession is what makes or breaks a ruler

@Hellachans DM me ur number and we'll get the ADL on high alert

@mattparlmer impressive showing tbh

@DrewliganLul the answer is always grow both if u got the time to do maintenance

@AOCummies bro I’ve always said it AOC Cummies wtf

@noahopinion @AOCummies why wouldnt u lmao

@ChrisExpTheNews ? tbh its best in class

@ChrisExpTheNews im not an apple fanboy, there's a lot of reasons they suck, but the UI of macOS/iOS is generally nice

@browserdotsys @RotemEren @Randylad fan of all UIs except windows

@ChrisExpTheNews which iphone is it? there's a significant leap in quality in the iphone X, XS generation

@Randylad @browserdotsys @RotemEren lol i know minimalism is a meme at this point but i still like it

@Randylad @browserdotsys @RotemEren definitely an improvement still not that great tho

@devarbol @nim__chimpsky lmao really all credit goes to @DaanVanDenHam2

@devarbol @nim__chimpsky @DaanVanDenHam2 one of the great twitter unmasking dramas of my time

@ne0agent1c I do believe this but relatively weakly

@ne0agent1c can’t get past the mind as software metaphor tbh. The program is the same no matter where you run it

@ne0agent1c the alternative conclusions are just as uncomfortable

@ne0agent1c for example, falling asleep is death due to lapse in consciousness. Or the replacement of atoms in your cells

@Noahpinion mother FUCK

I bet the sun will burn up in 10 billion years Screenshot This

@globe_shill $10 billion
