Lol I think you are missing the point. It could even be better to not know and argue about it for the purpose of conversation.

So now there is zero pretense about OpenAI being any kind of altruistic force for good.

Height and basketball skill are very highly correlated especially at the higher end. Something like 25 percent of 7 ft tall men between the ages of 20 and 40 are in the nba.

Take your pick. Even just in the tech sector in silicon valley there are many examples of collusion. Mind you this involves some of the most desirable employees on the planet.

But back to the central point the basic nash equilibrium is in the spherical cow realm of models as they relate to actual reality. There are some interesting additions to it involving time series and asymmetrical information to try and model real economic data.

That's a theory that only models certain market conditions. In practice there is an information asymmetry (contrary to the presuppositions of the Nash Equilibrium) and often the employer side has a small number of companies so coordination is easier. Check out this settlement from the 2000s in Silicon Valley[1]. This involves highly desired, well educated employees so imagine how it is in other fields.

In my own experience I've had several prospective employers at conferences say that they were interested in poaching me but mentioned that they were wary to start a poaching war. They knew the CEO of my company and were conscious of the fact that he would likely make an effort to respond in kind. The Nash Equilibrium is an interesting concept but reality is complex and messy.

I’ve used plausible but wrong human code too. I understand the difference is scale but it’s worth remembering that people write answers like this too

Yes it is quite funny when people get surprised that a get rich scheme isn’t real.

I'm pretty pro nuclear but you have to count the deaths from the evacuation because it is an direct consequence of the accident.

Ask a serious question then.

Part of it is that manually flipping through pages gives me a better mental model of the location of the information and thus its relatedness. For (good) textbooks I still prefer a hard copy to a pdf and I have a huge e reader so it’s not even about the formatting of the display.

We can put these on every street corner. The problem, as always, is that our city streets are car-centric and people would never give up any amount of parking. https://c8.alamy.com/comp/DCWEJ4/recycling-bins-on-a-street-...

>WA got rid of emissions testing because almost every single car passes

These planes keep returning with bullet holes in these areas. We should reinforce those spots!

I never understood this. Don't property rights operate on a similar principle? Lets say you own a home, live in it for many years, go on vacation for a week, come back and other people are living in it. Lets also say you live in libertarianstan and there is no state. What do you do? If you try to remove them from some place you believe to be rightfully yours you are using coercion and violence to remove them. Unless you are a pacifist you believe in the use of violence and coercion for some purposes. So saying that a state is illegitimate because it uses such tactics seems silly.

They also sell beer in gas stations too!

This whole idea of le crazy chess grandmaster is so silly. Fischer, even as he was declining precipitously, was producing cogent analysis and annotations on grandmaster level games.

>He did something none of Duda, Alireza, etc have achieved.

Only if you mean winning in Classical with Black.

Please listen to Duda,Keymer, Ali reza do post game analysis. They can speak very well about their ideas. It is not normal to be a 2700 and be unable to give your thoughts on the game you just played.

I'm not saying other factors are irrelevant but there is a largely unnoticed but very predictable force at work here. There are simply fewer and fewer prospective students in absolute numbers every year.

Weightlifting is the best anti-depressant I've ever tried.

The difference is scale. You will get old and die before you ever even reach 10 percent of the corpus.

Is this the tact your organization would take if someone else’s code completion software was generating proprietary Microsoft’s proprietary code?

What do you mean you can't picture yourself on a bike? Why not just try it?

I was thinking climate controlled small golf carts would be great too.

>I consider Feynman one of the all-time great men of history, alongside Richard Stallman and Jesus Christ.

I recognize my comment doesn't add much but this might be the funniest thing I've ever read on HN. Not even in a derisive way its just funny in a way that is hard to put into words.

Actually it works pretty well outside of HN.

>I can only guess either safety from misuse or leveraging it for money.

and it shouldn't be difficult to pick which of these is actually true.

>I have yet to see an example of "Synthetic AI media" that was both realistic and not immediately recognizable as being synthetically generated.

Would you know if you had?

>… I go through five or ten books a day.

That sounds like wilt chamberlain’s 20000 women. If the book is any good it should take months to really understand deeply.

? The above comment never made that dichotomy. Interesting that you took it that way.

That wouldn't exactly be a basic income now would it?

Lol no it is not like studying for a test and doing well on it. It is like cheating on your med school exams and then taking that license and killing people through malpractice. What they did was highly illegal and unethical.
