gradschoolfail··on Zig's Curious Multi-Sequence for Loops (2023)
Is this 14.x. Amendment the Goedeliamn clause lol
gradschoolfail··on China Is Rapidly Becoming a Leading Innovator in Advanced Industries
Who in america doesnt argue for skilled immigrants from Europe/China/India/Russia is an enlightened fella, who doesnt just listen to the people, he thinks for himself & the world. cependant, they shant get the party nomnom, or even the afterparty nomnom

(Bernie? Chomsky? DJT, only whilst on goldplated throne?)

gradschoolfail··on Young women are starting to leave men behind
For some time niow, been noticing that FT are trying harder to subvert the guys who own the country harder than the guys who think they ought to run the country (grauniad) themselves?

(In another thread. seem to be selectively highlighting VC data from china to fit their agenda)

Btw, Acemoglu et al seem to be cited by the CI Jones review of Romer.

And here is what im trying to steer towards a specification of designori: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13529578

(P21-3)

P23: >[the founder] starts hiring [capital/managing upwards] today

>Disclaimer: This paper should not be reported as representing the views of the European Central Bank

(But should it be interpreted likeso?)

My understanding of AirBnB may be dated to last decade when they hired some of my classmates as interns.. afai understand it, there might have been a slight chance of them getting indigestion from Design_thinking#Applications stanfordian d.school sophistry (the place where stans foorth)

Exercise: where are the engineers in the AAPL diag you linked?

(Think RAND & Systems Thinking updated for the age of quasi-Aquarius, it relatedly amusing how systems engineers are lowest status in CS depts.. below graphics!! human capital destruction yo)

Edit: perhaps you can try to explain to me how RAND has been conflated in my mind with Stanford :)

Olivier Nomellini senior fellow lol

8th does resonate with the bad habit of new founders to spend their time on the visible — fundraising (unfortunately, because in SV hiring capital constitutes actual sales?) — as opposed to working on product (so that their schlep can bring some return on the equity purchase)

I’d say the 5th (esp. comparison to archies) is also relevant as well as the various instances of “exec” ie the partners

[9th on the guardian mode in nerds?]

The designoris (as well as the B2C sales (“marketers”) whom they tend to relate more to) should also have a time constant, such that the dynamics of navigating these various time constants do not tend to elevate them to any inner party (e.g. in AAPL, designoris getting driven out..)

EDit: just saw that you replied to showrunning, thanks for directing my attention! I also replied to DG thread

gradschoolfail··on The centrality of stupidity in mathematics
Wow, what does the Missus think? If i cant tell a thick styrian accent from a lowland accent (of the interviewer?) i should leave the understanding of cultures via natural language to more competent folks :)

(To my nondefence, dialect means accent in England, e,g, one would say that the young E2R spoke a Saxon dialect)

Anyways, to try & adhere to a proper division of labor (mine lot is to safely dispose of spilled ink) herewith is summarized my latest attempt at designori integration (more to unpack moving forwards)

How to effectively fund research from the bottom-up? To improve on VDH, in the horizonal Union, your research pays the hoi polloi to be entertained! It is said Mondragonese labor hires capital, can we refine (i,e, “sophisticate the sophistry”) this! Proles hire technicians who hire fonders who hire growth engineers who hire capital! Keep candidates few & condorcet becomes ideal!

(Romer & Veblen have a common thread that human capital have a tendency to be destroyed in the OC.. perhaps you’d like to reply to the hot thread on ShowRunning, while i further refine my understanding of designori in the HolyWoods)

Edit: it is my understanding that present day academia favors destruction of human capital.

gradschoolfail··on Mathematicians discover new class of shape seen throughout nature
The actual discovery seems to be buried in the midsection

>…suspected that the actual 3D chamber had no corners at all. “That sounded unbelievable,” says Domokos. “But later we found that she was right.”

Fwiw its also not obvious from the main paper, you have to look at fig 7 d-e for an idea

So in this case, i’d place some of the blame on the mathematicians themselves for failure to properly follow up on the bait. (But nature shall not be absolved from holding them to a higher standard)

Could not find one for Gina tho

Aah pls pardon the calumny! (I enjoyed the few times when you were somewhat explicit about taking a choice cut of the truth, presumably encouraged by diluted ethanol)

gradschoolfail··on Zig's Curious Multi-Sequence for Loops (2023)
Mmm i was more fixated on the “absentee ownership”* aspect, which was triggered by your “know a tiny bit about all the things”

I have merely tabbed item?id=41519713 from HN tail, for v vs h integration is also at the backend of my mind (the slop-schlep — measured in microyarvins? — estimate for that doesnt look good?)

*excerpt here, dont mind the slapdashed heading? https://panarchy.org/veblen/absentee.html

>Indeed, it has taken something like a hundred years for the formulas of the economists to adapt themselves to the new run of facts in business and industry which set in in the days of Adam Smith.

See esp. the penultimate (Leninist?) paragraph “…grounded in traditional common sense…” (TCS is related to conscientiousness, but very much anitithetical to Castalia) which i cant paste here due to my buggy OS

gradschoolfail··on Zig's Curious Multi-Sequence for Loops (2023)
Im now having a metaphorical hangover, the earlier cavalier poeisizing of truth now strikes me with foreboding of schlep required to sober up answers to your bona fide followups. luckily, most of the softer stuff i had been integrating (without manifesting in prose) for some time , so, with the exception of big algebras & umbilicals & the more mathematical aspects of growth theory, it shant take more than 3 days, i should be able to outline thence at least the boundaries of what i know, & be secure in the belief that you wont disappear back into the ether like gvic :)

Im guessing i heard the persian story somewhere before..

gradschoolfail··on The centrality of stupidity in mathematics
Btw, i wasnt suggesting that you pair HN with EtOH like tptacek does — loading up on a few yt rhymes should achieve the same effect for you? Conviviality without killing any brain cells..

Blonde is americain? The tattooed guy, alpine accent?

gradschoolfail··on The centrality of stupidity in mathematics
Aah, I thought you were hinting at malfeasance by TM. Lumpers girl, is hardly mentioned by Farina without dubbies also indicated; secretarial skills hinted at at least once.

Thanks!

Btw, https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...

(Note curious bug surfaced by morbidred)

should be great for getting YC, according to my faith-based analysis

[Nitwithstanding (as you teach) cui bono analysis would be speedier variant which gets most of the way there anyway]

pS: whenever i type on HN, im already effectively, if only metaphorically, inebriated , so the ball is in your court, as they say

(Because otherwise i’d be tilting at neoVictorian as opposed to newEdwardian windmails)

[Edit: designori/designatori as synthesis (or compromise?) of Paul Romer’s endogenous growth engineers (type ii-minus) & Veblen’s technical soviets (type i-plus)?

Especially section III https://web.stanford.edu/~chadj/RomerNobel.pdf

pPs: as you understand designatori is more akin to painters than Painters, buy what about designori?]

Would Henry “to be an enemy is dangerous, but to be friend fatal” Kissinger not agree to the immigration of skilled labour? Do you mean that, as a first order effect, both sides implicitly understand that imported skills would not survive generation 1?
gradschoolfail··on Why to Not Write a Book
Designers* will know all about how it is all supposed to work

*personally prefer the term “designists”, but YMMV on that one

gradschoolfail··on Our Fractional Universe
We are returned to seeking answers from science fiction.. (formerly just business fiction Raowise, but also due to too much good faith coarsegraining by local deities)

Now we just need to figure out who JG is, because.. that conversation with EW seems to have actually taken place.

EDIT: for something less fictional (& hence less believable:

(Mulling/marvelling ATM how wikipedia talkpages, mastodon, o1, or HN are all inadequate for the kind of conversations we all hope for, something about the tension between sublimating koinonia & prowess-seeking)

(Im guessing that my increasing inability to parse (& engage with) your yc-related responses could be due to your professional expertise/our mutual interests :)

[peripherally, i also find it hard to tell if adastra22 is for real real — deep & subtle silos are realer]

gradschoolfail··on Founder Mode, hackers, and being bored by tech
in vino veritas. surely PG, just emerging from a smothering of left-field rhymes, was in something like a state?

I agree that almost all the time its just a bunch of guys. Would you agree, though, that this time round it’s about good vs evil organizational structures?

Specifically, Apple are relevant because their designer stratum (generalizable to Jobs’ habit of reifying ICs, so that Woz enters en passant) rhymes with the intended designer culture in AirBnB (& YC if only because their current prez was designer culture raised)

Let me know if i somehow got the pulse on anything in your opinion.

gradschoolfail··on Russian blues reveal effects of language on color discrimination
Regarding uh the dearth of prison slang in your part of teutonia: i’d blame autarky (no underclass?) & repression (see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiberer#Trivia)

Jenisch & Rotwelsch, any trace?

we had this convo earlier? Gold the precious colour of liberalism? (& of commerce and markets?) should work very well for the kray (UA/RU)

(Surely it would come after red in any hierarchy)

Return to usual programming soon :)

[1] Certainly.. this part of the photoop was deeply unappealing to the recovering Victorians..? did you notice he was more of a cunning linguist, having had to fall back on his translation skills more than once in his career? (having first signed on as a cavalryman)

A couple of points while i absorb these tubes:

1) lyrics to wellermans apple would be a mashup of

b) (you may choose between red, black, or white (the last one is trickiest)

… thus creating a bluesky composition? (Defer to wikipedia-aproved vexillology by Nathan Evans)

2) a self-policing of tone (more accurately, tint? Also note the singular red) would achieve ontopicality here
