biology uses a lot of gradients and culling. the brain starts with more neurons than it needs, and those that don't form connections get recycled. no need to start futile fights wh…

oh, it could be worse! spending time on fake CVEs while people are exploiting real 0days against your system.

... what is understanding of mathematics anyway? if some AI result helps a mathematician to solve more problems I would say then that it gave them some understanding, but just as t…

that doesn't mean much. it has a lot of tests, the architect seems sane, it fits a niche (for example scripts baked into container images don't need full (Node + tsx + esbuild) or …

how would they detect?

the same is true of passwords. some sites provide password reset some don't. how is that not clear?

natural selection rather quickly fixes this, don't worry

use an open source password manager that supports them. as others mentioned, there's BitWarden (cross-platform, self-hostable), but if you want something simple there's KeePassXC (…

still, eventually there's a need to support on one platform different ld.so/glibc pairs (even if they are API/ABI compatible) it seems nixos could set up a wrapper that invokes the…

sure, they have strong bay area aura, but an ad hominem is not very useful criticism of the actual arguments for AI safety (and longtermism, and against x-risks in general).

sorry, could you explain what Calvinism is for someone who (is a programmer and heard about EA and) grew up in a post-Soviet atheist metallurgy town? thanks!
