    The choice happens implicitly rather than explicitly. If Claude tries an approach and hits a wall, it'll try a different approach. If an API call keeps not working, it'll choose a …

    I think the content-centric model you are describing has been alive and thriving since at least the late 70s in Emacs.

    Do you have any references or examples that describe how this simplification would come about? Would love to learn more about it.

    Depends on what you mean by "improvements". Is it coordination? Is it sustained increased blood flow? I would imagine that different bike exercise regimens could induce more variat…

    One can always find positive and negative outcomes related to any intervention to a biological system. Fasting is no exception. The question is when and where is it beneficial, and…

    This keeps coming up. Is this depth story not simple to fact check with simulations? Are we missing something?

    Nice. Love vim too, but letting go of org mode is too much of a negative to justify a switch. I know I could use Emacs just for org mode, and vim for everything else, but that seem…

    I appreciate that people are looking into this, and I think more research of this kind should be funded. However, one needs to be cautious when claiming an "impairment" in fear reg…

    Does anyone know why the decision to ban it? Was it a move that had a relatively higher injury rate compared to other high difficulty moves?

    Because we can safely assume that under normal atmospheric conditions and within the distances we are talking about, light travels in straight lines and the SUV is too high thus bl…

    Name your frames and the problem is solved. I for instance love the model because I no longer have to be tracking down millions of filenames - just one for each project.

    Saw this on a separate thread the other day: "Get some weights. Pick up the weights. Put down the weights. Eat healthy food." There is no real secret. No need for a gym to do those…

    You may not see any progress, but that doesn't mean there isn't any. You are perfecting the moves you are making, and strengthening your bones, ligaments and tendons, which just do…

    If the AI objectively does a better job at summarizing the meeting, then maybe someone who cares about the project should use the AI instead of taking notes by hand.

    Exactly, that there is an end to the rabbit hole is a limitation of today's models. If something does not exist, it should be generated on the spot. GPT5 should check for the exist…

    The point of the article is that we don't like being idle. We'd rather spend our idle time "pretending" we are being productive, and tools for thought are what we use for that. Bei…

    Sure, just like working out continously is better than rest. There is no better or worse, you need both. Ideas take time to materialize.

    Part of the appeal for "Tools for Thought" is that by using them we feel we are taking action towards being productive, regardless of whether that turns out to be true of not. The …

    This idea is presented by Jeremy Howard on literally their first Deep Learning for Coders class (most recent edition). A student wanted to classify sounds, but only knew how to do …

    I feel the limitation is not that these references don't exist, but that GPT didn't go ahead and finish its job by also creating the content in the references on the fly.

    How big a lens does one need to focus sunlight onto a cooking pan to boil water and cook pasta without emissions?

    Funny salary ranges are disclosed literally every else and it's never been a problem except in the US.

    Podcasts, concerts and books are something we review subjectively. Scientific articles one would expect would be reviewed objectively.
