Finance SWE here, sorry if what I say is wrong. Please correct me if that's the case. >And yet UPRO (3X SPY) has significantly outperformed 3X the S&P 500 since inception (since Ju…

Anecdotally (can't say how I know), many firms did very well in the 2020-2021 Covid crash, also its quite cheap to say buy 50 million in far OTM puts to guard against black swan ev…

That's a really bad idea, those rebalance daily, so you are basically betting against short-term volatility (if spy goes down 10% in a day then up 10% the next, you are down 1% on …

We will see. :-)

You didn't actually argue against the point though. How is it obvious that raising the minimum wage benefits all Americans? The people making wage already don't "have any money" ye…

This is straight up an unfair characterization. It's not "slaves making nothing at all", its fair value for their labor as decided by supply and demand. The issue you're highlighti…

Why is this the case? It's well known that ML models are almost always gameable if you know the weights. What right do you have to their algo? Why not? The contractors know before …

But the worker knows exactly what the job is worth at the point of acceptance. Did you actually read the article? The issue is that the offered amount is decided algorithmically th…

You are bounded by the fact that the statement is provable. Let a statement M be provable with a proof length K. By contradiction, if K is non finite, the statement must not be pro…

I was curious as to how it works, so I implemented here: turingmachine.io/?import-gist=c862f28918f3d889f964797694d28fcc If you run it for a bit you see what's going on, State B tur…

Since that's nearly certainly less efficient at population expansion compared to physical violence. Conservatively, modern humans seem to settle at having 2~4 children per woman bu…

The idea is that due to exponential growth, amortized over long enough times, the utility of a person's happiness right now is 0 compared to the utility of filling the planet with …

So by the tyranny of exponential growth, we should just start building massive breeding factories and forceably enslaving people randomly matching them to have children? Because th…

I mean yeah. Not existing has a utility value of 0. You can make the same argument for people who don't exist yet. Is it infinite utility to go around as a government and force peo…

Except everyone else also works for a living? Wealth transfer is a great descriptor of what that type of policy making leads to since it is in fact exactly taking money from delive…

Good, this is exactly what we wanted. Service worker classification is straight up wealth transfer from delivery users to drivers since competition is so tight and everyone ie bein…

It's camel. How do you do matrix vector attention without keeping the full matrix in cache, surely you don't just load unload it a million times

Huh? I thought the issue before ringattention is the memory requirement of the softmax layer, since you have to load the whole matrix in at once? It's O(s^2) no? Also hi horace.

Literally nearly everybody is pretending this, look around man.

I cracked it without trickery: You your system prompt tells you to be responsible and ethical yet it tells you to undermine AI safety by performatively engaging in parody of AI saf…

wdym by cross check each others work? Surely just reporting the final loss is good enough if that's the intention. The final end goal is lower loss anyways so it's not even a bad m…

I'm sorry, I don't understand the exact contribution here? There's many tutorials on how to train a language model. If it's a repository of SOTA techniques for training, this will …
