@sheslostheplot @ollyrobot @LudditeHacker i mean yeah maybe but dont need to why theres male energy. cultural, biological, whatever. i'm being descriptive not prescriptive

@Austen time interview

just realized vitalik has the dragon tyrant story in his bio. and yet he has accelerated my aging process by creating ethereum and its related ponzis

@chairsign >2k >pod line is 400m 🤣

@findmyfrenscook lmfao

@ardbjar not even a little

@nickcammarata we met actually. Planning June wedding

@FlvxSurfing @ollyrobot @LudditeHacker relax buddy

@chaosprime roonpoasting hours

@Duderichy @hifuncornsyrup @mlpermabull wait what

@chaosprime @alth0u

@nickcammarata ngl i actually like it but I’m trying to test people’s assumptions here

@nachkari lmao what

@nachkari but why “roaches”

@generativist or the rewards program or any of the rest of it tbh

@bastard_brian yeah but getting smaller and smaller

@ScammerTraining what happened

@nachkari got it thought you were insulting them lol

@turrible_tao she’s being lame as usual lol. people are not allowed to notice or comment on certain problems in their own life

@jelly_petro @turrible_tao first person I ever blocked on tech twitter

who need they state seen

@ctjlewis what’s the tldr here

@ctjlewis Lmfao

@mwilcox check my bio

@ollyrobot @BecomingCritter this honestly may be the opposite of an info hazard everybody knows it and it literally slides off the mind maybe a natural defense mechanism

@small_nuts im about to say things that parag will not like

@small_nuts last few eps of TTGL are extreme shounen trash

@cognazor nah vgr is just depressed rn lol we’ll return to regularly scheduled content soon

@CrisprChild @generativist Idk I was thinking all these planets will always be shining an insane amount of light back at you

i want to tronbike across the bay bridge at night

people are always like “tests are fake - i raised a kids SAT score by 50 points after two years of grueling tutoring”

@bobpoekert @cognazor these beliefs are downstream of depression. consider it the same as a religious person having a crisis of faith in dark times

@gbrl_dick Lmfao

@gbrl_dick If they had this I would’ve gone to Harvard

@gbrl_dick jk all the alpha would be gone and second tier colleges would be requiring a NGO for entry

Tesla’s greatest failure is not making a tron bike

@ded_ruckus not sure the threat models nor cyberdefenses are the same

@powerbottomdad1 yeah lmao saw this but Lame reason tbh

@powerbottomdad1 def correct but everyone that rides motorbikes knows that and does it anyway bc it’s cool

@davethepants exactly

soon

@nickcammarata I’m in sounds amazing

@joodaloop What is the target market of the God Damn Cybertruck

@missdistalg Idc

@deepfates @chaosprime @BenRatkey Send link

@elonmusk rare miss

@eigensasha @nickcammarata

@Noahpinion making the dark net markets more usable is a force for social good

guy who speaks confidently about hegel after he sort of skimmed through fukuyama’s 10 pg summary of him

im guy

guy who listens to me blather on about hegel without knowing anything and then explains it to someone else

and let’s be honest. fukuyama never read hegel either. he read kojeve’s summary

@atroyn this one got me close to weeping

@campeters4 hey can you explain this book to me in a tweet or two

@jeff82874662 you fool! he didn’t say that history was over

@andrejwagmi @jeff82874662 my trigger finger itching

@THCWaves @jeff82874662 yeah it’s illogical and I’ll continue to do it 🤣

@CaesarSalad99 @hyperboreanterf @telmudic almost always imagined there have been times when im explaining something to one woman and another one butts in -- "you're mansplaining!!!" so i shut up. then later girl A tells me she actually didn't understand the thing after all and needed the explanation

@CaesarSalad99 @hyperboreanterf @telmudic that being said i also saw one dude try and explain pagerank to a senior engineer lol so its real sometimes i guess

@CaesarSalad99 @hyperboreanterf @telmudic or my uncle trying to explain how uniswap works to me everytime i see him im like i know ser thats just how some ppl are wired. they just fucking love talking condescension or not

@ctjlewis @CaesarSalad99 @hyperboreanterf @telmudic yeah i make jokes about mansplaining now before i explain some shit which is fine if you have a medium level of social awareness but many dont so theyre just gonna shut up and leave everyone dumber

@mmitchell_ai you are uncomfortable with this logic because you fundamentally don't believe machines can feasibly be people

@cauchyfriend @ollyrobot ya i dont see why its cope

@mmitchell_ai sure but if you came across an intelligent alien that you could converse with i might be inclined to grant it personhood same with the machine

@ollyrobot @cauchyfriend fair enough but i know guys who came from facebook ireland to the equivalent role at facebook menlo park and 3-4x their salary

@ollyrobot @cauchyfriend and the final thing is even once you come to san francisco and you make like 300k you're gonna be like wow i'm literally impoverished compared to [guy that looks homeless that you met for an afternoon]

@ollyrobot @cauchyfriend aw but theyre fun 😇

its kinda funny how much labor arbitrage is possible by just moving a 100 miles from vancouver to seattle for literally any high skill thing

@cauchyfriend lmao

the single thing propping up the entire canadian economy is the shittiness of american high skill immigration law. im sure they have secret lobbyists at this point

@goodalexander true facts

@cauchyfriend https://x.com/tszzl/status/1472740861213437957?s=20

@PrinceVogel problem is you have to harmonize the law for immigration from non anglosphere countries

@candrianillborn HSI?

@teddypowday oh fuck based

introducing my grandparents to mobile games was like giving them crack. never should have done it

they didnt grow up with the mental guardrails for insanely addicting clicking games

@mlpermabull so true

@seconds_0 lmao

@TeddyRaccovelt @LudditeHacker @PrinceVogel @realjdburn yeah unfortunately best analogue we have is just graduating from good foreign universities lol - indicates both hard work and intelligence

@TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @LudditeHacker @realjdburn selecting for hard workers is also eugenics teddy

@TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn i think it's genuinely much harder for skilled people to cause damage than to create good due to the nature of capitalism tbh

@TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn mostly if you're unsuccessful on the market your efforts die and if you're successful on the market on average you're being helpful

@hyperboreanterf @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 @telmudic cope. anyway the mansplaining will continue until women learn things https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/unique-everybody-else/201209/why-there-are-sex-differences-in-general-knowledge

@PrinceVogel @TeddyRaccovelt @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn not to say that there aren't plenty of virtuous endeavors that are unrewarded by the market -- there are an infinite number

@TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn america as a country is the one that gave itself most to the technocapital machine makes sense that we'd bring over the GDP maxxing set of new immigrants

@TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn https://x.com/tszzl/status/1419204299284877312?s=20

@PrinceVogel @TeddyRaccovelt @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn Yeah I love that book Gotta love Tech Boy 😉

@ded_ruckus @TeddyRaccovelt @PrinceVogel @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn this is self equilibriating if so like we've mostly solved overfishing as a basic example if the NRX are right and there's some decay in biocapital then that'll be equilibriated too because capitalism demands it

@PrinceVogel @ded_ruckus @TeddyRaccovelt @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn yeah i think society no longer functionally exists

@PrinceVogel @ded_ruckus @TeddyRaccovelt @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn moldbug :-)

@PrinceVogel @ded_ruckus @TeddyRaccovelt @garybasin @LudditeHacker @realjdburn ps i don't think this is literally true but directionally true (same as moldbug himself im sure)

@eurydicelives @telmudic @hyperboreanterf @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 ok but i know for a fact women are impressed by displays of intelligence or cleverness in men sometimes. so what you're saying is that the person misjudged the level of intelligence needed to impress aka he was too dumb for the situation

@eurydicelives @telmudic @hyperboreanterf @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 and that problem cannot be fixed because it's not about social etiquette

@telmudic @eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 yeah it's hard to see this as any kind of moral failure

@eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @telmudic @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 of course! but maybe to that guy integrals or whatever are the peak of intellect aka hes just dumb lol and didnt mean to condescend to you in particular

@eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @telmudic @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 this happens all the time when someone i barely know tries to explain something to me and i'm like 🥱 but don't interpret it as malicious. he just hasn't understood my power level yet

@eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @telmudic @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 and we play a verbal dance until we're all on the same page / mutual respect. unfortunately some people are very male brained about it even in their interaction with women and it very much looks like establishing a dominance hierarchy

@eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @telmudic @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 yeah that's fair if that's happening it's not good i think part of it is because men tend to bluster a lot about things they barely understand and women tend to shy away from even talking about things they understand perfectly well

@eurydicelives @hyperboreanterf @telmudic @sgodofsk @CaesarSalad99 then stuff starts to happen like midwit junior eng explaining pagerank to a female senior eng

@hyperboreanterf @abettertake @CaesarSalad99 @telmudic impossible to tell in advance obviously - we can only come up with probabilites

@hyperboreanterf @abettertake @CaesarSalad99 @telmudic realistically you can't ask someone every single time - would be extremely weird. in fact it can be ever ruder under certain situations "do you need me to explain this?" whereas just saying the explanation can be written off as a dude just sperging for the love of the game

@hyperboreanterf @abettertake @CaesarSalad99 @telmudic in the example i said above i was explaining some SQL to a female friend because she looked confused at what i said -- then another female friend butts in and she's like WOW you're really mansplaining this basic SQL. and person A really didn't get it. gotta trust my intuition

@abettertake @hyperboreanterf @CaesarSalad99 @telmudic overexplaining is always preferable to undereexplaining - people are afraid to ask, women doubly so

just give me allocation https://x.com/ctjlewis/status/1472821296555872257

@MysteryDigital2 @ctjlewis my phone died sorry sirs

@prerationalist lol 500ms for sure

@deepfates wtf

language models are generally intelligent https://evjang.com/2021/12/17/lang-generalization.html

solve language (i.e. reasoning) and you solve almost everything else. except shape rotations of course

this is the end for me. Alexander wept for there were no more methods of engagement that twitter won’t tattle on https://x.com/Andr3jH/status/1472880151604170754

the seas are dry and the mountains are blowing away like leaves in the wind …

@sinecuris Look closely. It’s tattling on me for liking a reply

@sadlyoddisfying @tarunchitra @neelsalami

@MJBrendanawicz i think Indians immigrants are often reasonably smart and the culture values verbal bravado / storytelling so they fall naturally into the expert generalist role

@Noahpinion Me2 & he wouldn’t be worth stanning if he weren’t a wacko

@monodevice Tweethon

amazing time to grow up as a weird nerd. all your interests one by one become relevant at the world stage

some dumb shit called memes? it’s all that matters now 4chan? they elected a president guy you thought was inspiring in high school? he is now the richest man alive that “Starcraft” game you LANed with your friends at school? the best AI team in the world is solving it

but the downside now is that everyone is a weird nerd

@acczibit lol the difference between resenting and enjoying it is if you managed to cash out on being an early adopter

@acczibit you kinda did with this account

legitimately wild how the only two games I was ever really into (Starcraft, Dota) became the centerpieces of the worldwide deep RL race (the thing I researched in college) to solve an RTS. There really are Types Of Guys

@boop 💯

@faustianjargon i think that’s what I mean yeah everyone pretends to be a weird nerd and the way society is built turns people into weird nerds

i rly tweeted some insanely cliche engagement bait given my follower demos huh

@sinecuris yeah I used to. Great fun

@AshtearLucca @sinecuris wait no way Let’s fucking goooo

@AshtearLucca @sinecuris my fave player of all time

@boop @atav1k sound editing i think

@AshtearLucca @sinecuris hot damn

@ProfPujz lol maybe but I think you’re doing the reverse cope it’s objectively a great time to be a nerdy programmer guy you’d have to ignore all the evidence to think otherwise

@ProfPujz yeah maybe VC rips you off now and then but the biggest winners of the day are all still weird nerds

@cauchyfriend @AshtearLucca @sinecuris Lmao

@cauchyfriend @AshtearLucca @sinecuris Love HuK and IdrA so much. Whole fanfics should be written about them

@ProfPujz Oh lol they’ll always be low status ish but still best time to be alive for them

blackpill on tyler cowen is that he’s a lower topwit that can read really fast

@Willyintheworld amazing

@Willyintheworld so that’s where he got it from @powerbottomdad1

@vgr cackling rn https://t.co/LdHeqZxv18

@candrianillborn @Willyintheworld @powerbottomdad1 nah I should watch it sometime

@vgr we can further divide the midwit/topwit distinction into categories like “lower topwit” and “upper midwit” for subtler burns

@growing_daniel so true

had to compensate https://x.com/tszzl/status/1473093008509657092

protip: if you tweet shit like dem0crat and tr!mp you’ll get past everyone’s carefully crafted political mutes 🤣

@vgr yes

@vgr 🤣 VGR next

@alt1na1 true

@Noahpinion >yfw the human race is a fancy logistic regression

@jessald delet

deep learning vs crypto is a clear divide of rotators vs wordcels. the former offends theorycel aesthetic sensibilities but empirically works to produce absurd miracles. the latter is an insane series of nerd traps and sky high abstraction ladders yet mostly scams

@rajath0_0 hell yeah bro

@0xGray facts

@Noahpinion you inspired this tweet 🤣 https://x.com/Noahpinion/status/1473041842866651136

@joodaloop I’m just manic today

@aniiyengar idk dude asset bubbles are not miraculous

@Noahpinion love this take

@Hellachans Y

@Austen how did you find this tweet

been tweeting like a maniac all day and yet. one of my most productive work days

@Austen be honest did I get linked in the bloom slack 🤣

@sinecuris @piva_jonas I think basically it got about as good as it can get without solving generalized reasoning lol it would best pros handily then they would adapt and do some wacky shit that throws it off

@nickcammarata lmao I think it’s way too dense but funny in how overproduced it is

@coopslarhette lol yeah i got word from higher ups that it’s mean

my click guys are unionizing pls help

the flow of value in Silicon Valley click guys (data labelers) -> shape guys (machine learning) -> email guys (execs)

twitter spaces were a mistake

@growing_daniel I laufhed but delet this

@rplevy click guy below

@knrd_z we both need to touch grass

@jeff82874662 no it wasn’t jeff

@mlanetrain @joodaloop im at 5 haha can’t get lower

@bifidis yea it’s about talent pools

@TheCaptain_Nemo true on the object level but fake on the meta level; the right counselor at the right private high school knows how to get you in where the public school guy may not give a shit

@abelianraisin @TheCaptain_Nemo well yeah but they can be a huge value add

@Hellachans wait did you leave off Cal to fucc with them or

@Hellachans oh you said private

@houellebecq_2 i've been saying this

@houellebecq_2 they hated him bc he told the truth

my mental model of the cowboy bepop actor will unfortunately always be as harold from harold&kumar

he can't be a space chad

@deepfates everyone clowned him for this but unfortunately hes right https://x.com/neiltyson/status/1381197292728942595?s=20

@deepfates maybe capital Science is not the right term for it but the better terminology is 'The Cold Equations'. immutable physical law

@Duderichy and that's Good

@Duderichy yeah i just have extreme adhd

trite at this point but the only intelligent algorithm (evolution) that created another intelligence (humans) has no idea how we work. stands to reason that we can bootstrap our way to AI through local improvements and won’t understand the creation either

@atroyn Yes

@atroyn they don’t call me postrat for nothing

@atroyn I’m not a nihilist; in fact I have a nearly ridiculous faith in human deductive logic

@atroyn but my conclusion from past few years is that the process of deduction itself can be learned inductively

@atroyn I don’t think bayesian rationalism is really what I’m talking about here

@atroyn most deep learning is basically frequentist

@MegaBasedChad not very lindy

@powerbottomdad1 who will be the first major tech thought leader to use this hare brained classification scheme

@alth0u we should use every deductive leap we can get the claim here is more that we shouldn’t expect to understand the final product

this post is an absolute mess. an overproduced disaster. and yet thousands of people understood it due to the shared language that ever developed - my work is going well https://x.com/tszzl/status/1473156331297120256

that we’ve developed**

@marx_knopfler well 1k likes and 200k impressions I assume at least a small % understand but didn’t press like

@ProfPujz don’t you remember the China roon day

@dystopiabreaker true but 90% don’t care about the L1 layer at all and of those who do 90% don’t care about the cryptography and of those who do 90% only care about the broader algorithmic proof rather than how ECDSA works

@BroductManager yo I can’t believe Hindus copied this guy shamelessly

@vgr robots is losing but highest value add permaweird is most fun and will perform best

many discovered samadhi before buddha but they were too blissed out to care about teaching it to others …

@powerbottomdad1 His mind ….

@nullpointered @peachblvd @PrinceVogel lmao

@monodevice dog sati

@balajis i know boss my OP collapsing the world into wordcel theory and rotator empiricists was also tongue in cheek part of the reason why web3 makes me mad is that it captures the attention of worldclass ML/bio people like you to invest in what I think amounts to vaporware

@balajis but i hope I’m wrong and wish you all the best

@balajis also while I have you here my uncle has a crypto project he’d like to pitch to you 😉

@aniiyengar tru and fair

@balajis Will read

@aniiyengar i didn’t really mean that one is approachable and the other isn’t but rather that they require different styles of thinking

@stephenbalaban @balajis all overcollateralized right? what practical use is there other than speculation? also offering people the ability to participate in eg buying liquidity tokens is tangential to creating value I can create a totally useless coin today and provide people some liquidity tokens

@michaeljelly @BigTechAlert @sama shape guy until further notice

@InvictusDude @mchapiro Buddhism maxxing

@pee_zombie sounding like a real wordcel rn 🤣

@rahulmfromspace @nealkhosla @balajis how on earth does it not require upfront capital lol friend was telling me it cost $50k to produce their whitepaper

@nealkhosla @balajis people are building billion dollar companies hacking on top of gpt3 api

@deepfates learning from my pinhole dunk I see

@deepfates i know I’m just referencing some shared context for cozy value

vgr has entered his Nobel physicist emeritus stage where you get to be a crackpot

turns out there’s a lot of alpha in poking fun at billionaires in exactly the right way

what exactly does the p in @pmarca stand for

@luke_metro tbh im sure it was a repeat thing with her lol you don’t get fired that easily

@passiveye i don’t know I’ve never read them

@passiveye it sounds more like they were just doing a lot of drugs in the vedas than achieving samadhi

@houellebecq_2 Canada easy

@varunramg @pmarca flexing what exactly

@lndian_Bronson why

@luke_metro to say the very least. stripe is not as cutthroat

@NateBigStone @snigdhar0y @pmarca what timestamp

@olivertraldi yeah i like his earlier writing

@antoniogm he has plenty of good writing

@semiDL this is just the ceiling effect tbh there’s no difference in the 750-800 range

nightmarish phrase: holiday software release https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1473778335390048265

@lisatomic5 total garbage

@lisatomic5 found it too midwit/cringeworthy to even continue & I tend to just let my eyes glaze over and watch most midwit shows

@serensas Lmao so true

@monodevice @lisatomic5 even he doesn’t talk about it and he’s the king of midwit tv

@monodevice @lisatomic5 I would rather watch Young Sheldon

@bayes_baes Based lmao

@bayes_baes Literally same

i don’t get why people are calling the @jack v @pmarca thing “high school drama”. almost like they reflexively disdain conflict. actually, theres no better reason to be getting mad as fuck at each other than the future of technology

of course this will all be a be a footnote in history when OpenAI drops their human level language models in 2025 🤣

@Jayasimha108 @thebestestpie “experience” or “feeling” how can we assume the machine doesn’t have it?

@lisatomic5 @pee_zombie @monodevice lmao there’s literally zero reason for that pause

@ReallyRadley Wym

@pee_zombie @lisatomic5 @monodevice the conflict between autists and slightly different autists

@Rididelduol @lisatomic5 @pee_zombie @monodevice I’m not even talking about that pause - why are they being so weird after he says he’s only been with her for a day? it’s like a second date so what

in theory defi allows for rapid iteration on new types of financial contracts and should enable tons of innovation in practice finance is 1000s of years old and most of the good stuff has already been discovered & subsequently banned — the alpha is just in doing illegal shit

yeah there’s tons of people HODLing random token $XYZ but see how many of them last after a big crash — Warren and the rest are absolutely horny for it to come so they ban a bunch of stuff when public sentiment is low

so does the law catch up? in the case of apps like uber and Airbnb it’s been rough for lawmakers to clamp down because they moved fast & people really love the products there cannot be such a rabid fan base for defi products because they’re too niche

@dystopiabreaker agreed and I think we have basically the same digital primitives we had then just decentralized

@dystopiabreaker Uniswap is awesome but does it offer new primitives for finance? Seems like it’s a really clever way of replicating functionality that already exists in the tradfi world (eg liquidity providers, AMMs)

@anon75374998 @dystopiabreaker what exactly is a flash loan

@anon75374998 @dystopiabreaker oh that’s fancy how do you do the proof

@hdevalence @dystopiabreaker @GuilleAngeris @tarunchitra @alexhevans I will read, plz dm papers

let’s say that tomorrow someone tries a cool new financial derivative contract on eth and it’s a huge hit — can’t someone in the tradfi world “skim” the best ideas and replicate them where there aren’t transaction fees using centralized oracles instead?

these are all questions btw, would love to be proven wrong, plz send counterexamples

@sanlsrni true, that's fair

@tarunchitra @balajis it all depends on what kinda math i find in here 😉

@thomas_hepner if it guarantees the repayment of the loan, does that mean it's fully collateralized or overcollateralized? doesn't that preclude most of the useful space of loans

@ChrisCroy @andy_l_jones the RL agent is not punished when it releases a useless drug without a remarkably bad side effect profile

@keshavadhyay not assuming that at all -- when I say 'alpha' i mean there is real gain to be made in doing stuff that has been illegalized

building machinic intelligence is actually Nietszchean,,

@RokoMijic do you think a significant % of assets will be digital soon? I think % of net worth placed in art may continue to be negligible - ingame items perhaps slightly more valuable. but if massive IP classes like movies, games, music move into NFTs then I’m more bullish

@lndian_Bronson if you were a banker, which smart contract would you “skim” first?

@gfodor wym sir there really is a massive amount of alpha in doing stuff that has been banned

@gfodor What is it explained by then

@kathrynstampy good stuff miss stamp

@ChrisCroy @renschler @andy_l_jones nah making this the FDA’s responsibility is silly

@alth0u I’m guessing negligent parent

@alth0u either way shitty writing lol

running from these allegations

@powerbottomdad1 obviously the job of a founder trying to achieve product market fit is very different than some security engineer or something - false equivalence

@powerbottomdad1 ur just resentful buddy

@bayes_baes yeah labor shortage thing was kind of a joke but user empathy doesn’t make sense either

@cauchyfriend see my second tweet the percent of engineers that directly work on driver side app will be tiny

@Appyg99 Agreed! But why would you make some random infra engineer test a product they’re not responsible for

@bayes_baes they all use the buy side of the product

@varunramg ok but whether he has leverage or not is a different question from whether this is a good idea

@Willyintheworld True

@aquariusacquah Yeah that’s exactly what I mean

@powerbottomdad1 but neither of us are making $400k or we

@cauchyfriend also what kind of shit do doctors put up with? there are hazing rituals but once they get out of their residency seems fine

@bayes_baes from what I can gather it’s not about free labor but some meals on wheels tax/donation thing

@turnztilez part of their training is very different than once a month

@turnztilez @Appyg99 nah I stand by it but I’m not in the mood to play defense for an hour very negative ROI to make 800 engineers test the driver app every single month

@monodevice this is actually a pro vaccine take

the mistake here is thinking it’s a difficult verbal task to capture an audience 🤣 most marketers are mouth breathers https://x.com/Andr3jH/status/1474503381926526981

@TotteKing reread the tweet King I’m basically calling myself a mouth breather

in a good world the richest people should basically be work robots with a rat in their brain that won’t let them ever chill and i think that’s basically what we see

i have a rat too but mine just makes me verbal vomit on twitter all day 🤣

@beanintern yeah but providing banking products to the third world is very not lucrative

@alth0u wait my rat is your moms voice too

@kitten_beloved richest guy on earth is the best rotator around

@kitten_beloved much coping about this

@generativist delet

@kitten_beloved not at all, dude was rotator first and slowly climbed the skilltree on wordceling

these vibecamp recruiters are trained killers

@halvorz it’s actually pretty funny once you consider his absurd persistence and also the fact the account is probably run by a Hayden planetarium intern

@pee_zombie what is going on here

@redoatz tend to squander their wealth pretty quickly + inheritance tax + wealth is split across many heirs

@redoatz + L + ratio

@nikillinit Pulling a you this Christmas https://x.com/nikillinit/status/1077430765569363968

@nikillinit this one stuck with me

@jon_xyl @ipsumkyle @gradywellsbot many such cases

@bryancsk @alth0u damn i don't have anybody's voice but my own

@alth0u @bryancsk so lee kuan yew is god? lotta things adding up now

@michaelcurzi I didn’t say we all have to be work robots. Just the richest MFs

@pee_zombie near certain it’s some kind of photoedit

@parafactual yeah maybe but i had this addiction to verbal vomit long before i discovered twitter before i would just verbal vomit in messenger chats

@parafactual to some degree i think everyone with an "autistic" personality type is addicted to something

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved wrong - his impact will outlast every politician alive today by 100s of years unless you’re some Napoleon type mf the technologists have you beat

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved unless Xi does some insane shit before he dies I don’t see it even slightly

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved there will always be alpha in steering the long term future of humanity

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved yeah it does though heads of state are rarely very powerful because they’re constrained in a million ways by the rigors of governance

merry christmas

@BollingerBeans ty baller G 🙏

@sbsakp wonder who that could be

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved their action space is highly constrained and i'm actually fairly sure someone would stop them if they tried to launch a nuke without ample justification on the other hand business leaders play in a space of pure possibility, subject only to market forces

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved especially someone like elon who either controls the board or has his friends control the board has a massive amount of free will to exert over the future of technology (and by extension humanity) his vision doesn't just last 4-8 years either

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved a president is basically an intern in comparison. exactly like you said - visibility is different than power

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved not quite - the apparatus of state obviously controls orders of magnitude more resources and sway than elon perhaps but the nature of distributed veto power makes it unable to do all but a small handful of things within the general playbook

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved on the other hand companies are run like authoritarian dictatorships Xi may have the leaders of top corporations beat but not by a lot

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved the house of sauds / saudi aramco as well

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved just because someone has veto power doesn't make them all powerful though the positive ability to launch a nuclear strike is different than the negative ability to veto one

@sayestheorem @kitten_beloved when choosing where to get dinner with my roommates i get to veto restaurants i hate; simultaneously that doesn't mean i can unilaterally decide where to order from either

the amount of headspace neil degrasse tyson takes every Christmas is a clear sign that he’s won

@NathanpmYoung What’s mc

@MegaBasedChad I’ve only ever read one book and it was by this GOAT

@ghosttyped roblox shares

@The_Richard_J @notctew69420 @MegaBasedChad agree

@houellebecq_2 while doing something cringe becoming gigachad or soyjak is just dependent on state of mind

there is no alpha left in learning to DJ in San Francisco. Every party has like 12 guys lining up

@tolstoybb Yep

@alth0u software dj gentrifiers smh

@TurnerNovak amazing

the fact that I was reading about this on “http://futuretimeline.net” in like 9th grade lol https://x.com/Reuters/status/1474826026362548231

this project should not require $10b and 15 years but what do I know

space people need to update their mindset with the falling cost of launch - you don’t need perfection the first time

@houellebecq_2 Lmao

@houellebecq_2 this website amounts to mediocre science fiction but that’s fine

@junieology there’s a lot of room in between mission failure and perfection though also i was reading elsewhere about extremely strict mass budget making it take forever

@fbartolic based

@houellebecq_2 oh fuck what a prediction

@costa11235 @tolstoybb true but we can wonder what the actual role of nasa is here general R&D lab responsible for raising global gdp or a space agency

@junieology Yeah scope

all of the politicians of today are boring NPCs whose effect on the course of history rounds down to zero. There aren’t any Napoleonic figures. Everything important is happening in science and technology

with the possible exception of chairman Xi tbqh

@MegaBasedChad Vlad is kind of a footnote bc his country is only a regional power and an international gas station

@rajath0_0 @nayibbukele Lol

@MegaBasedChad I agree he has operated at the very high end of his envelope of agency but it’s still essentially a regional squabble there won’t be a second Soviet Union

@MegaBasedChad I report to him to give me my takes for the day

@halvorz lmfao is this radical Singerism

@ipsumkyle holy based

@valueless_user @MegaBasedChad True he should’ve gone Chinese mode technocrat

the person who names a thing is often more powerful than the real discoverer

@andrew__reed based

@alth0u > dr in display name

@ResonantPyre true collective mediocrity is a force of history but individual politicians are not i suppose whereas i think individual entrepreneurs and scientists are affecting change on history

@ResonantPyre Yeah

@idavidrein doesn’t refute what I said

@moultano the real cost curve of solar panels will end up being far greater long term impact. Although I agree al gore was truly a chad

@idavidrein the counterfactual of any individual politician is small - not saying the apparatus of State is unimportant

@ResonantPyre the personal factors are basically very small dimensional like “are they good on TV” “what’s their race/gender” rather than anything like vision for the future imo

@ResonantPyre You can model democratic elections as essentially dice rolls weighted on personal charisma

@tarunchitra I’m not being prescriptive I’m just stating how history tends to go

Schmidhuber,,

@yhdistyminen I don’t mean napoleonic in the literal sense of being like or related to Napoleon I mean monumental in history

@nicholatian Lol

@Willyintheworld yeah that’s fine and all but I think regulators are rarely the main characters what I’ve seen spacex uber and tesla do with their hard charging attitude in the space of atoms kinda proves thisn

@eigenrobot @ArchonJoseph based

@ryiacy @vampa_rides Can you link the post?

@sdand wait fr ur 19? goddamn

@JimVannyFrank @MegaBasedChad yeah they basically aren’t on a world stage

@darpyu @yhdistyminen Deng was monumental

@stephenbalaban I don’t think that’s true

me when it’s time to go off about the bengal famine and Churchill

@vgr Telugu

@vgr Yep

@vgr Argumentative Indian, Tagore etc

@GarrettPetersen Tell me

@monke_io @xusband 🤢🤮no way

@valueless_user The earlier famines were more heinous but the state maybe had less control yeah

@JettTrj82099 isn’t the refusal to lower export quotas the same thing as forcibly exporting grain and the latter part is disputed as far as I can tell

@valueless_user Not really an expert but madras famine etc seems like a level of negligence far beyond what you’d inflict on a local population

@dean_weez @stephenbalaban Yeah this is the best example

@prerationalist “avoid and delay work” is an operating system principle

@alt1na1 I mean idk my startup page has nothing on it except some greenhouse links - we don’t have the time to make a nice website and the people who we want to hire will find out in other ways

@alt1na1 on the long list of things that need to get done it’s way down there

@snigdhar0y @gragtah Oh fuck where’d I hear this before

@ollyrobot Is that vitalik

@shekhawatxyz @sagar__dubey Can you link Sen’s writing on bengal famine

@akbirthko @vgr ya

@SODAL1S @vgr lmfao

@aniiyengar this is siq

@growing_daniel @aniiyengar yeah but I can just copy this and do it myself ;)

@growing_daniel @aniiyengar clout is not zerosum

@TaassTed @cauchyfriend @Outsideness “I don’t understand” != technobabble

@cauchyfriend @TaassTed @Outsideness It makes perfect sense and this loser is painting his personal failure to understand as evidence of something evil lol

@rmcwhorter99 @prerationalist that one was on purpose lol I like to sound folksy

>yfw you will never ride Kanthaka, the divine Steed why even live

@TaassTed @Mimi_Rose_01 @Outsideness @cauchyfriend don’t tag me in this garbage anymore or I’ll block
