“Why does Rice play Texas?”

@0x543211 bullshit. genetic enhancement is already happening vis a vis Genomic Prediction. if it doesn’t happen here it’ll take off in China or India and then we’ll have no choice but to copy - that’s the nature of technocapital obesity cures will follow too

@PageSeverian exactly

@Urbion6 @BenRatkey the piraha are outliers in 20 different ways least of all this

@bryancsk true

@storebrandguy @deepfates great memory

@mmay3r @_PeterRyan yeah — it’s a natural extension of nietszche’s ideas about the Will To Power why wouldn’t man try to elevate himself to godhood. not just by fighting each other but by fighting nature

@michaelcurzi ngmi

@michaelcurzi I’ve shoveled so much mfin snow

@jejunestarfcker @telmudic ^

@RoseOfMorgan only men are GMI

@joodaloop @metakuna too late anyway it’s wrong

@max_hodak modern incantation

@Duderichy seems like a fake problem

@seconds_0 completely true i suspect these will have natural community structure in a way that few other methods produce

he blocked me long time back for asking “how much AAPL do you own” https://x.com/BroductManager/status/1439658859648282624

@razibkhan 99% of antivaxx i know do it as an act of rebellion rather than ignorance, which is cool I guess but ultimately looks to me like someone who sees a free $100 on the ground and refused to pick it up out of anger

@ns123abc @peachblvd Lmao

@asc89 @sagar__dubey @BroductManager lol he really made that comparison? amazing

@asc89 @sagar__dubey @BroductManager ah pmarca?

@ns123abc @razibkhan wdym

@NLRG_ the unironic “reason from first principles” pill i was doing this all the way up until college then shit got somewhat hard

@eigenrobot the normies will greet us as liberators

China understands that the future requires programmatic LED exteriors on skyscrapers …

@max_hodak True. In that case the *present* requires building LEDs

there’s a class of yimby that hates Tesla because they want a future with zero cars, electric or no, and I just want to say. You have truly lost the plot

a real “overpopulation on Mars” type beat

@monsterofcook and?

@jstalnaker1 I am extremely glad I live in a world where someone like elon is the richest person alive

@rasalghulvc wym

@andrej_ngmi true, which is reasonable. market street in SF redpilled me

@rasalghulvc lol no it’s a boomer sensibility. you confused getting old with the concomitant wealth

@rasalghulvc i assure you I’m doing pretty well for myself

my time as MLE at BigCo actively regressed any technical skills i may have had and replaced them with bureaucratic skills

@InvictusDude lmao

@InvictusDude also intriguing gotta sleuth your main now

@gbrl_dick so true bestie

@turrible_tao guy with “abolish zoning” laptop sticker at Berkeley paying $1000 rent: I will kill all suburbs

@JoeClibbens @jstalnaker1 he’s a boomer poaster but the fact that he’s a poaster at all gets him creds

@turrible_tao @gigafelon yeah

yo my followers list is pretty loaded now so if you or anyone you know is working on some cool deeptech stuff that's ML adjacent ... lmk

@AshkenaziFugazi unironically based

@telmudic dodge?

@telmudic shouldve googled this one

ideal is early stage & promising

@swamp_ass_SWE @spakhm is this a joke

@monsterofcook lol

@MattAlhonte @JGAMPHO overpopulation on mars

@ben_mathes either specially interest in biopharma/ML area

@peaktraansit definitely a real guy, can be found in these replies

just keep having kids until someone in your bloodline gets to be a main character

@jeff82874662 reject the Issues

@shiraeis Yo

@shiraeis watchu working on

@calfphysiognomy yea and i hate it

@calfphysiognomy e4 but true …

@homsiT @micsolana you ratio’d mike with his own post … incredible

@_avichalp_ @homsiT @micsolana so true

@TeddyRaccovelt ok Last Man

@peachblvd literal hairline fracture

you ever see a tweet and think, this would’ve been good if Curzi tweeted it

but coming from one such as yourself it is merely cringe 😔

@cauchyfriend this guy constantly tells on himself that he has a bullshit job

@WilliamGrobman @cauchyfriend his bit is extrapolating that to the whole tech industry

@WilliamGrobman @cauchyfriend lol no data scientist i know would purposefully obfuscate their notebooks

@gigafelon too much time

@jamesignazio Hell yes

@alth0u @ded_ruckus https://facebookresearch.github.io/CompilerGym/getting_started.html

tell me someone is doing fancy ML for stacking and unstacking containers at the Oakland cargo port

@RealtimeAI meh I have no way to judge the technical sophistication of these ports

@c39d11 lmao wtf

@Hellachans gdi

@RealtimeAI @powerbottomdad1 if anything I’ve learned that freight is insanely inefficient

absolutely everyone is coping for MLEs rn Snap is hiring L6’s for $1m

otoh i refuse to serve one more ad

@__nxor in some places it may be synonymous

@alth0u FoldIt mfers screwed up by not integrating w roblox could’ve scooped the Nobel from alpha fold

@ArjoonSrikanth yea exactly when I joined BigCo they were flooded with MLEs

@varunramg half that

@PageSeverian yea it’s on the high end

wolf of Wall Street:banking::dune:messiah

i will not be elaborating. unless someone even slightly inquires then I might elaborate

@lisatomic5 yes but also why not; the optimal amount of main character syndrome is nonzero

@dcwych staff engineer

@postpostpostr basically everyone WoWS is pornography about being a rich banker but expects the audience to understand that it’s bad actually dune is pornography about a self insert male hero messiah origin story that lowkey causes galactic genocide but leaves it subtle until the second book

@postpostpostr same concept in Enders game

@postpostpostr dune also seems anti Christian to me but that’s for another day

1) gibbon is right 2) Jesus is based for collapsing Rome 3) paul atreides is good despite his jihad

you telling me this biryani is DUMB

@Alephwyr lol I don’t hate Rome. Their time had come tho

@Hellachans it’s called battery swap buddy

@yasmeenbrain 🤣

@arctanno lmao

@arctanno no I’m just laughing bc I assumed this is inspired by my salaries poast

@onefiftyfivemm naw that’s cope

@ProfoundPilled @onefiftyfivemm all they really did was ban after school tutoring and restrict social media and then the West soyfaces about Maoism

@R1Jack @onefiftyfivemm true but if they can manage a controlled deleveraging that’ll be way better than anything the US ever did with housing bubbles

@monsterofcook high grade shitpost lol

@prerationalist this mfer said egregome

@GuilleAngeris that’s what I mean tbh these days when I say ML Including any and all statistical tools including BayesOpt

@generativist modding giant LMs

@generativist i say this like I wouldn’t need a massive dev team to implement the tiniest changes

@A1Rhe4 @generativist language models

@ProfoundPilled @onefiftyfivemm if anything this seems kind of laissez faire strategic deleveraging instead of bailing them out

@LudditeHacker @ProfoundPilled @onefiftyfivemm they rekt Ant Group for understandable reasons the startup part I don’t understand as much & seems short sighted. But I suspect we don’t know the full story

@LudditeHacker @FlynnInLisbon @ProfoundPilled @onefiftyfivemm typical communist signaling but im wondering if this is any different than all of our boards having an ceremonial Chief Diversity Officer

@LudditeHacker @ProfoundPilled @onefiftyfivemm Xi has proven himself a shrewd operator and if something seems like a 0 iq fuckup there’s probably a deeper story It may still be a fuckup but not an obvious one

@_holyweather jihad

guy who murders you for self care reasons

“idk ur vibe was just making me uncomfy and im not about that?”

@ulkar_aghayeva @halvorz DM link pls

@ulkar_aghayeva @halvorz or if there a recording

@halvorz the final generation of this will have to learn from physics & geometry alone and eschew bio indicators i forget which group is pursuing this but there’s a famous one

@telmudic im somehow both except i just do the research group now and gave up on the work week

@peachblvd understanding esoteric Greg egan shitposts but we waive the requirement for girls

@krishnanrohit what if it’s silently happening? after all I have no idea what elite Bay Area private schools are run like

@halvorz true and may never be possible in the general case but there are several layers of generalization between 'requires full MSA' and 'physics only'

@Duderichy isn’t it related to environmental damage?

YouTube feed algo is extremely easy to design. You just look up the persons twitter, see if they ever mentioned anything about “doing their own research” and send them into a Bret Weinstein black hole

the ground starts shaking when a mfer who does his own research arrives

@ITBeHa Sheryl is his agrippa :)

@peachblvd your savings will compound too, possibly faster than tuition

@CXGonzalez_ @peachblvd yeah that’s what I mean

@noampomsky that guy was literally the Buddha and u fumbled

@storebrandguy @Ol_Wall @Duderichy this is true

@storebrandguy @Ol_Wall @Duderichy is using less labor time eg correlated to less environmental damage? idk mfers need to implement international carbon tax and stop thinking about this

@storebrandguy @Ol_Wall @Duderichy Lmao

@storebrandguy @Ol_Wall @Duderichy So true

@storebrandguy @Ol_Wall @Duderichy Fwiw fast fashion also made clothes post scarcity in the third world

if you could mod your desires what would you change

@xkcd3141 yawn

@bigGovEnth lol would you actually reduce that tho Feels a bit inhuman

bout to post some cringe

i want a stable and prosperous China that serves as a long term ideological rival for the US in a productive tension that creates net positive outcomes for both countries as they try to one up each other

@jamesr66a Yes - China is vegeta

@DurhamFella no and I think it’s a bad comparison

@Interrobang_2 @storebrandguy something similar

@Interrobang_2 @storebrandguy yeah central control, pseudo marxist ideology

@amirism_ @default_dad @kaisoapbox @powerbottomdad1 PBD stands for Pretty Big Dick

i would make myself - enjoy pursuing tangible goals a lot more - enjoy cheap novelty of thought less so i could focus for longer - not care about social contact / feedback as much - gain more pleasure from working out

@ollyrobot It’s cringe precisely because they can’t coexist wouldn’t ya say

@alth0u so true

@ArtusAmericanus true

@behavinbehavin they will absolutely try and sabotage us and we will try to sabotage the hell out of them. the devil works hard but the intelligence agencies work harder

@Interrobang_2 parts of the brain are in disagreement whatever executive judgement is picking my values doesn’t necessarily control other desires

@LoCtrl Exactly

@ollyrobot Lmao

@samsaragon Nah

@prnksbs ye it’s lowkey not bad but people on this site hate it for various reasons

@houellebecq_2 reporting for duty

@houellebecq_2 32/33

@MegaBasedChad wait until she finds out about the republics of ancient India

@Hellachans @MegaBasedChad I was literally typing this

idolizing investors over inventors is NGMI behavior

@phanihare Lmao

@andrej_ngmi @harari_yuval pls i love you bro

@0xGray true

@notlinear1 @650ad1 @yeetgenstein 😂

@notlinear1 @650ad1 @yeetgenstein they hate it in the abstract, love it in the specific as a voter bloc i'm sure thiel was right

@ollyrobot this makes me miss teaching operating systems

@AngularOcean @lastcontrarian It was funny

@ataki12 Good enough Has anyone tried RL?

@jeff82874662 It’s beneath you

@WillManidis unironically excellent that it works this way

@WillManidis the bugman should get a cut

@drewhahn23 the only alpha in algo trading is studying other bots and figuring out how to abuse their behavior

@WillManidis I do have a luxurious beard like him

@pee_zombie cringe to believe it’s possible

@storebrandguy the only thing this fat midwit mentions is that Facebook blocks “interoperability”. And there was an era where fb did not block interoperability. It’s called Cambridge analytica

@storebrandguy not to mention the average switching cost from a New York Times sub requires like 4 phone calls. Obviously the brands will try and retain you

@Aella_Girl lotta smart as hell creationists, in fact it’s a lot harder to defend than evolution

@storebrandguy i know I read the article and the only substantive thing it mentions is the interoperability

@willhinsa Yes, I get it! capital is bad for the consumer; fb has escaped competition but just cut to the chase and say you hate capital rather than going on about fb’s crimes against humanity or w.e.

@willhinsa capital is a unit of monopoly capital does not exist in perfect competition; it all gets competed away

@tttuckerrr cambridge analytica 2: electric boogaloo

@QuentinMCody @Aella_Girl this is cope too

don't even talk to me if you're not on the brain level that Peter Thiel is very clearly a Marxist

@AshkenaziFugazi yeah correct, he accepts Engel's historical framing of capital but i am saying Marxist to appeal to normies

i mean?

@BroductManager yes

@LoicTheStoic you should read this one obliquely sweet loic

@eigenrobot as it should be

@ded_ruckus that’s not true at all the flu vaccine hovers around 50% efficacy and would completely annihilate flu season if even half the pop took it

@ded_ruckus agreed but the point remains: even at 85% efficacy you can perfectly rationally be scared of still getting the virus and vehemently demand that others do their part

@ded_ruckus i mean the parameters of the particular risk assessment are irrelevant for the general argument that in some cases people can and should demand that their society vaccinate for the common good

@ded_ruckus bottom line it’s not an antivaxx position to get vaxxed yourself and then also worry about others doing it

@ded_ruckus in this specific case I suspect you’re right and people are far more panicked than they need to be but hey

@ibeckermayer @ded_ruckus Agreed, actually it’s perfectly valid to not vaccinate as a form of civil disobedience I just think the QT’ed argument is wrong

@Cererean not a good comparison additional jabs provide exponentially scaling benefits

@ded_ruckus No I understand I mean the argument presented displays willfully low understanding of exponential scaling

@LudditeHacker Agreed

@default_dad @DistractedAnna don’t be mean lemy!

@__________ur7 Deleted

@RiverTamYDN Meh not a guarantee w asymptomatic spread

@alexandrosM https://x.com/moultano/status/1440820102144741400

@The_Equationist @Cererean not if you get r0 below 1 then decay becomes exponentially stronger which additional jabs

@youngnemo101 you have my blessing

@rasalghulvc wait what

@sonyasupposedly @sashachapin @QiaochuYuan I got it from crypto twitter but I think origin wallstreetbets

🤔 https://x.com/joefassler/status/1440751935372476417

@burnerbylaw No

drop the “the”. just ranos. it’s cleaner

@luke_metro after the 4th DoorDash of the week we must contend with reality

@VivaLaPanda_ i know but I wanna pay someone to look deeper than just keyword based lol

@retttx sometimes the vibe on a tweet is just off .. it’s gotta go!

@ask_ourself this is just a challenge to try harder

@sameQCU lmao

@halvorz this may be of interest

@yashkaf not yet recorded always bet on the future baby

@small_nuts Blocked

@MegaBasedChad >not declining to respond ngmi

@lastcontrarian @alt1na1

@halvorz i skimmed it but headline thoughts 1) seems like you have to recreate half the systems of the cow to effectively use bioreactor, eg immune system, waste removal 2) beef is cheap and may not be the right beachhead here price/lb of something like bluefin is 100x beef

@halvorz all the focus is on beef because it’s the real villain in the greenhouse gas game but the industry won’t make it if they can’t demo a profitable business in next 10 yrs

@cauchyfriend @halvorz Yeah that’s the current gameplan for most of these

@MegaBasedChad @luke_metro kind of sus at this anecdote seeing how $FB share price popped

@MegaBasedChad @luke_metro but there hasn’t been any material new info? I thought this was about whatever dogshit the journos are on about now

@MegaBasedChad @luke_metro and there was also a leadership shuffle recently. probably related to that

@MegaBasedChad @luke_metro can’t pretend like I know their day to day but these folks tend to be responsible for high level technical direction involving macro trends such as eg observing chip shortages and making plans to mitigate impact

@MegaBasedChad @luke_metro at an Elon Musk company there is no point in having a CTO. they will just get mogged. but my suspicion is zuck doesn’t care about that stuff

@alt1na1 and that’s why I’m teaching JavaScript to refugees

@generativist should be implicit in everything I say

My frens in labmeat industry tell me in private that this is faek & that they already produce animal cells at the efficiencies needed so 🤷

@generativist gotta extract info from these cynical mfs

@darpyu @djmicrobeads you should take that deal

@dcwych 😂 Must not have seen it wasn’t about you

emotional progress is when you become a better male manipulator

@parafactual they’re not really But all engineering is kind of low status in the US

@parafactual If anything I think FAANG mystique pushes the upper limits of how high status technical people can be

@parafactual Of course you can instantly beat it by being a professor of a made up science at a major uni tho so long as you pump out nytimes articles

@jeremykauffman @parafactual then you need to assassinate elon musk asap

@andrej_ngmi i was at home eating smegma butter when pjotr ring “drew is kill” “no”

@wolftivy @Substr8Monopoly @95thoughts @Robot_Bastard @mattparlmer midwit takes continue

i gotta say many of the people that were indeed early on covid have predicted several disasters hence

@zcknln @wolftivy @Substr8Monopoly @95thoughts @Robot_Bastard @mattparlmer wolf persists on euro cope due to sickeningly low spice tolerance but that’s ok i love him and palladium anyway

@costa11235 so true

@AdamNeumannsCoS id like to see ur hermeneutics create a $1 trillion company

@_AlastairX_ @jeff82874662 Jane street ?

@alt1na1 i like how in every age people had a myth that their ancestors lived in perfect abundance and harmony and then it got all fucked up. Like the ancient Greeks were saying this too

to the neurotic cs interview nerds: the Wall Street bankers don’t even know what Jane Street is

the top of ur status ladder puts you somewhere in between “forgotten” and “ppl write books about how bad you are” in finance …

rise above. focus on tech progress

@The_Equationist not really but the path to get there is easier

@Rationalbot @parafactual yea normies don’t think it’s cool. I mean yeah they’re “awed” in the same way normies conceptualize Sheldon on Big Bang theory

@The_Equationist yeah who cares about the median if you get to buy side private equity after doing your grind at a big bank you’ll be making $1m+

@varunramg @powerbottomdad1 @The_Equationist honestly yea lol it’s a bit more high variance but ive seen my friends job hop 2 yrs into their career and more than double their salary

@eigenrobot brother https://x.com/tszzl/status/1380012686654599170

@eigenrobot i believe this was my first tweet about shape rotation lmao

@PrinceVogel @AdamNeumannsCoS or thiel or musk. I’m merely being flippant the best entrepreneurs are philosophers. however the text they interpret may be a scifi novel

@rickyflows 🤣

@ollyrobot @PrinceVogel @AdamNeumannsCoS come shoot me

@ollyrobot @PrinceVogel @AdamNeumannsCoS self contained american epistemic loop. we worship technocapital and won’t let you come here to shoot me for worshipping technocapital

@aniiyengar A statement to anger all parties

mfers will short a good asset and then just say “the market can stay irrational longer than I can stay solvent 😌” until they die

@michael_nielsen I’d rather not

@powerbottomdad1 Completely true

and that’s Good

@sonyasupposedly @tolles stock price doesn’t reflect this

@sonyasupposedly @tolles i think it’s fake

@aquariusacquah wait that’s already happening

@woke8yearold elon

@alth0u idk that’s how i do it performance review of my barber

@alth0u but it’s pretty insane to just put +20% everywhere you go imo

@houellebecq_2 true Square point of sale and it’s consequences have been

@storebrandguy @alth0u Yeah in the 15-25 band there’s plenty of room for price discrimination

@J0hndom true

@alth0u nah it depends many are selling narratives to shareholders and customers rather than metrics as soon as you are being graded on metrics alone you are not free; you are a bug in the technocapital optimization algorithm

do you find that things are less beautiful if you think of them as machine-like or mechanistic in some way

it is context dependent but often makes things way more beautiful 4 me like the sun and stars actually seem mundane until you go somewhere remote and really appreciate the Vault of Heaven and the machinery of nature

or the rituals that happen when you get on an plane feel stupid at human scale: eg read the safety rules that nobody is listening to, or ask everyone to turn off their phones but then I think of it as a complicated distributed algorithm being run on a million people at a time

@OneEyedAlpaca @__frye @bungoman me and @default_dad doing the same

i wonder if this predicts something on the religious <-> irreligious axis altho Ive certainly known a few religious mechanical thinkers and irreligious mythopoeic thinkers

@TheFrenchist interesting

@Hellachans inheritance + speculation I guess?

@nominalthoughts Jbber

lots of people who lead extremely interesting lives can’t tell stories about it at all others lead incredibly prosaic lives and yet tell amazing stories about it this is called Narrator Syndrome

tall dark and Dravidian

@prnksbs ask not why but why not

@notlinear1 nah there’s high verbal mfers in both

@notlinear1 for example Michael Lewis in fin or AGM in tech

@kunm00n Yes

@gbrl_dick me to baby doctor: i want you to turn the “cringe” setting as high as it goes doctor, shaking like in the movies: sir,, we.. we’ve never pushed it that high. it’s not safe. it’s not approved by the FDA sir. me, bravely: I said as high as it it goes.

@TeddyRaccovelt @alt1na1 Gotta be kate … what does this say about me

my one piece of twitter advice is to make your name monosyllabic

@tamalefencer ok fair point

@stelladingus Lmao

done https://t.co/OHp3CDV6i6

@pee_zombie apparently

@MiloJKing like many great ideas it didn’t work at scale

@typecfemale yeah I didn’t think it was that hard ..

how did I not notice this https://x.com/strangestloop/status/1441135179322445829

@nickcammarata synthetic social gradient

@peachblvd @bigbadmeatball @LensCrafters hi grace hank is gaslighting

this is it. shortage over https://x.com/generativist/status/1442152469228777488

it was wild at the time too for anyone that was paying attention https://x.com/MattBruenig/status/1442086265776640001

@reconfigurthing depends if like <1% of total donations is going to such charities I’m happy with it just an interesting way to create more happiness in a way that other people can share in. Def not that effective tho

@peachblvd in many/most games there’s no waiting area at all and going from area 1 to area 2 triggers a loading screen while the file loads and they pre render a bunch of shit

@peachblvd ohh I see what you mean the elevator is part of both level files they copy paste the assets and it looks seamless (at least when i made Portal levels)

@reconfigurthing optionality is great when there ain’t a bitch in ya ear telling ya it’s nasty

@deepfates they dress fine and how well people dress in New York is way overrated. they’re mostly in sweatpants like everyone else. that being said everyone in New York is hotter

optionality + an guiding set of heuristics for narrowing down choices is way better than just not having optionality

@storebrandguy @deepfates lol it’s not a representative sample obviously I’m in New York rn

@joshuabueno you’re right a lot of advice inverts for people who aren’t sufficiently in control

we will slowly make shape rotation high status and increase global GDP by billions https://x.com/_StevenFan/status/1442251245427707906

which crackhead invented the espresso martini? they deserve a Nobel

“there is no alpha left by the time there is a playbook” is also true in science that’s why stamp collecting behavior leads to larger outlier discoveries than hypothesis driven

@blamblamtheman Right!

@nwilliams030 doesn’t bode well https://x.com/nwilliams030/status/1441556643964243968

@tdoggyholhol which playbook did einstein use

@TeddyRaccovelt i honestly think they’re both sort of fine and they’re just married to their work first and each other second

twitter gets better with log scale of your followers & don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

@tathtrod it’s true but the max quality gets better as log followers goes up

@krishnanrohit like roommate !

people often talk about the tension between moral intuition and rationalist ethical frameworks but i think “money should go to the poorest rather than the proximate” is pretty intuitive to me it always felt right to me beyond argumentation alone

@BroductManager amazing

@storebrandguy @DefiDiogenesYFI I meant donations / resources

@egocv idk isn’t that kind of a hardline view of the EA?

ofc the reason it makes sense to me are the universalist liberal priors built by centuries of cultural evolution and decades of indoctrination so yeah it’s fine

@storebrandguy @ctjlewis yeah would be a second priority in my book

@LucioMM1 definitely nonzero

@ctjlewis @storebrandguy no as in the low hanging fruit have all been picked in trying to house the American homeless and sending cash infusions to poor villages in India, sub Saharan Africa, etc is a better use

@ctjlewis @storebrandguy more talking about donations

@storebrandguy @ctjlewis yeah I don’t support this at all but it’s a side convo

@andrej_ngmi @SarahTheHaider 🥰

lotta people stressed about becoming main characters lately. it’s easy — just don’t board your plane until they start calling your name

@nickcammarata This is called dialectics

@SeanMombo Yes

@Duderichy nerds just have high anxiety and risk aversion lol

@Duderichy also tech people cut to the chase and status compete on wealth / position alone which is probably good environmentally but bad for aesthetics

@Duderichy just have to look at what people are putting in their twitter bios

@thebestestpie @Duderichy lol Lexus is poor man’s idea of opulence tbh

@ProfoundPilled @Roon lol the 4 letter @‘s are actually not transferrable so it barely matters

@Lan_Dao_ wait explain this one

@_PeterRyan that’s the first thing I thought of but it’s been taken for a while . Good names are gone

@nickcammarata @deepfates yeah not to worry

@powerbottomdad1 Lmao

@powerbottomdad1 be honest. Does @uniroonic suck ass and or balls

@VivaLaPanda_ tried this one

@thoughtomata @parafactual @nickcammarata @default_dad Nah that’s me lol

@__frye I agree

@plesmasquerade @amirism_ Agreed, got rid of it

@MegaBasedChad Great point

back to tszzl. I’m taking the xkcd pill. I will never get tired of essentially random letters

@roonmate what’s up friend

quantitative easing has inflated my follower count.

@arctanno True

@OneEyedAlpaca @roonmate fr this some eldritch tweet bullshit

@cauchyfriend @roonmate lol I still follow you bro

@MegaBasedChad very bad situation

i will start a line of best selling shape rotation supplements

my boss had a kid, took exactly a week off of work, and he was like “babies are much easier than i thought” 🤔

@skinnyspice either that or nannies / au pairs are more powerful than i thought

greentech mfers spent years complaining about fossil fuel lobbying against them while they stand hand in hand lobbying against nuclear fuels

@peachblvd only two options are creep or beta cuck we are not gonna make it

every day wsj drops a new hard hitting headline like “Facebook is using Normal Business Tactic #345 discovered in 1837”

there is a guy on here who copies every high performing take in my sphere a few hours later and gets more likes. Tiger Global strategy

@WillManidis kinda based

@TenreiroDaniel so true

Wowow https://x.com/michaelcurzi/status/1442973755945275401

@s_r_constantin Spray and pray

@garybasin @s_r_constantin yeah actually that’s not I meant I just typed some bs while I was eating

@michaelcurzi @ollyrobot thank you for assuring the public i go at least 6 minutes between checking notifs

@CausabonT i think the most important people are nearly psychopathically devoted to a good cause and i will cheer for them even when they step on me

@CausabonT and you are right on availability bias. the Machiavellian shit lockheed or the auto industry pulls on a regular basis makes musk looks tame in comparison

@BroductManager not gonna stop until you’ve lost all credibility

this is completely true and makes me realize that Great Poasts already exist in the platonic aether waiting for someone to find them https://x.com/diviacaroline/status/1443018641050537986

it’s the same in research science. a bunch of people always discover the same thing around the same time even without direct comms. being the first is many times harder than finding the thing

@Tjdriii alternate framing of this is that some problems are systematically sexier and more interesting to work on eg theory of everything will always command more mental space than sand physics

@CausabonT lol he probably spend like 5 minutes developing some of those takes and does not spend any amount of money lobbying outside of stuff directly related to space and cars so who cares?

anyway this is the most pro natalist endorsement I’ve ever heard

@HeikoBenjamin ok simp

@GreekAttorney_ @hyperboreanterf both nanny and grandma looks like, so definitely easy mode but he’s generally a competent and good man

@ollyrobot lmao yes for MLEs

@elaifresh @skinnyspice yeah i kind of thought it would be an giant emotional roller coaster even with a nannie helping with the logistical aspects like applying a bandaid for an emotional problem

@ollyrobot lol this is actually a great point gotta develop dataplane long before controlplane

@ollyrobot this is when pesky inhibitions die and ideas flow free

@lndian_Bronson @Austen @julien @vishnusupreet Austen and TigerGlobal beat me fair and square 🥲

so true King https://x.com/Austen/status/1443040477503131655

@ollyrobot no but im sure someone in this giant tech co does and I’m p sure they have an Ireland office

@ollyrobot for tax evasion purposes of course 🤣 but also engineering

there’s like a small venn diagram of people that have read like Diamond Age or something and also are fun to talk to and they’re all on this website

@alth0u WEIRD behavior is high variance low risk aversion low expert respect which ultimately leads to stronger societies despite initial discomfort imo there is really no difference between “expert” and “elder”

ok but don’t start patting yourself on the back it doesn’t work the other way around If P then Q doesn’t assure that all twitter Diamond age readers all fun …

@alth0u because the instrumental part isn’t touching the floor in either case? eg dumbbell handle or top of the shoe

@alth0u yeah this is basically the “first principles” vs “experimentalist” tradeoff aka variance bias tradeoff 1P model of young people are likely to be bad and overfit but incidentally create massive improvement simple fit model of old people are likely to be correct but underfit

@0xdoug Lmao

@Duderichy @alt1na1 @postjawline @jeff82874662 can confirm I’ve seen him in the Acorn den reading

@lastcontrarian thing is its kind of hard to have good high level ideas without having good engineer brain as well

@wowholyfucking yep

guy who tells me to stop giving money to the homeless but also to tip more

@JacobAGeller @elaifresh @skinnyspice right, seems kids' problems expand to fill attention if they are small

@akbirthko @max_hodak yeah ASML was the one i was thinking of although i suppose since TSMC already has bought a ton of their machines we could keep going for a while, but chip progress would halt

kind of a dick move to dismiss it as "they'll just buy drugs" or whatever lol they were gonna buy drugs either way get gud at marginal thinking but not good enough that you tell me to reroute the $20 to givewell

@lastcontrarian lol tru but theres an element of truth to it as w all shitposts

@lastcontrarian agreed, however this is the equivalent of a stamp collector that remains at E5 level forever. the L7 engineers are closer to entrepreneurs, GOATed at thinking at a high level, their side projects are goaled on vision & value rather than learning skills

@VivaLaPanda_ @max_hodak DNS is hierarchical & distributed no? you can have backup DNS servers in different geographic locations with the same certificates cant you

@micsolana no matter how thielpilled you are some competition is productive

and this is not about minimum wage or something where there are confusing equilibrium effects. I mean they either can’t or won’t have any intuition for market clearing or supply/demand

most people (even smart ones) dont believe basic microecon and there’s nothing you can do about that

simplest example: many or most college educated are blackpilled on personal consumption decisions having any impact at all (eating less meat or using less electricity) but then will happily turn around and insist that you go and vote in your D+40 state

@DanielleFong Wuttt imagine thinking microecon doesn’t factor into meme or art markets !

@DanielleFong the supply and demand functions are of course there even if theyre not “efficient capital markets”

@Duderichy @cauchyfriend idk id rather that people understood market clearing than the t-test they will have to interact with it a lot more

descriptive btw not prescriptive. idc how much meat you eat

@DanielleFong yet deeper into microecon fray short run inelastic goods and whatnot not to mention container ship markets or whatever

@DanielleFong True

@joodaloop you don’t have to be a galaxy brain Bayesian maximalist to understand any of this stuff lol 99% of the people that Get It are not “rationalists”

@Trenton_94 the more oil is demanded the more pipelines will be built the more leaks will be had it’s all connected, always

@arctanno dying because @jeff82874662 and @monodevice literally did this

@micsolana thinking too short term — I’ll argue that they are taking fractally different approaches really it’s about long term vision of Mars colony vs orbital colonies and I think that’s differentiated enough to be worth two companies im really no fan of blue origin though

@w_____redacted tend to be way more sympathetic about this bc macro is hard and kind of sus even in the best case

@_djpn @WomanCorn all true, i think the value add is far larger than the rent cost for the imaginative

@_mengde_ yeah sure everyone has weak models for how it works

@powerbottomdad1 @KolmogorovGhost it creates a far more meaningful difference than voting swing state or no

@powerbottomdad1 @KolmogorovGhost think on the margin

@benjamingreeley no it’s not it’s on the buy side

@powerbottomdad1 @KolmogorovGhost there’s no magic number that’s the point of no return and shaving off fractions obviously helps

@Noahpinion well then purchasing should be expressive too

Serial Experiments Lain moment https://x.com/pbprot/status/1443243420395397124

@hyperboreanterf only rfh gets it

@WillManidis wait this is true but i really didn’t expect you to land on effective autism take

the universe sends millions of obsessive autists who spend 80 hrs a week watching anime to the cosmic slaughter so it can create one Newton or Darwin

reading group I’m at is presenting a nature scientific reports paper and calling it “nature paper”

@bastard_brian this is really a referendum on yourself and how much you vibe with the technocratic measurement and instrumentation paradigm

@The_Equationist nothing in the world is perfectly inelastic

mfers will publish a single NeurIPS paper and put “ML scientist” in their bio

@BroductManager lol ty but i had that for a while just making a credentialism joek

Insitro = new Theranos …. don’t quote me on this ….

wtf is going on there they have no blogs, no papers, just announce one “partnership” after the next oh noooo im gonna annouuuunce

@komphlex tldr me on this

@BroductManager wow

@Rabadash2 Rejecties lmfao

@TenreiroDaniel brightest minds of our time ground to dust tryna understand what the tweens are up to

@n55939491957681 @650ad1 @BroductManager thankfully business value is the only thing on earth that matters amirite

@yayalexisgay techno-comf aesthetic

@n55939491957681 @650ad1 @BroductManager the only score board is glory

@MegaBasedChad congrats fr focus on technology and poasting
