Some things are also just not predictable, like human behavior

It's true, we have to rethink the fundamental interface; some blend of aesthetics like vinyl and record players similar to how Steve Jobs incorporated into the early iPod would be interested to keep. Aesthetic / UX wisdom pieces from the past, with the infinite canvas of the 90s (the web), to the modern digital sculpture bendable paper interface of the near-Now, some delightful advancements to keep our heads turning like the feathers of a peacock.

Why wait for news when we can settle for gossip and speculation /s

I wonder if it would be a human-ish/esque/like interface to the MMLM? At Japanese Complete, we recently announced such a project to become available once the MMLMs are more dialed in. I think this is a natural step for the big players. We have our curriculum as an edge, so optimistically beat featurization. Announcement: https://japanesecomplete.com/articles/?p=1574

Wow. Scientists at Stanford figured this out to a demonstrable idea over ten years ago I believe. I am looking for the article, ambient power for IoT devices.

“I get anxious at gatherings and typically prefer not to go, but thanks for thinking of me”

Osborn's words from his own book where the term was first used:

  Every day, everywhere in a democracy, juries are proving that a dozen minds can jointly judge and judge well. But that’s judicial thinking; how about creative thinking? Can a squad produce ideas? The answer is yes. Properly organized and run, a group can be a gold-mine of ideas. It was in 1939 when I first organized such group-thinking in our company. The early participants dubbed our efforts “Brainstorm Sessions”; and quite aptly so because, in this case, “brainstorm” means using the brain to storm a creative problem—and do so in commando fashion, with each stormer attacking the same objective.

So the good news is you can still brainstorm as Osborn himself intended. I suppose this once again goes to show that reading the manual is a good idea! I had no idea there was a manual for this stuff.

Let's start one via IPFS. How can we improve this to have fast delivery? Maybe a client application and centralized server for the "buddy list," AIM-style. Yellow Submarine. We All Live in One.

Thoughts?

I wrote a handbook a little over a year ago about creating startups [0]. One of the most important points is ensuring that your product addresses a market gap. Demand cannot be created, it can only be awakened. In brief, one must: identify a market gap, contemplate a solution from the user's context and needs, create a prototype that demonstrates the core of the product (Minimum Viable Product), and do sales or pre-sales of that to complete the validation.

I was thinking more about power shifts, not inequitable comparisons :D

Self-discipline is a better predictor than IQ according to this paper from 2005. http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.368...

Did you see this one? http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.368...

You know, I did a google scholar search for this "fact" and in 2005 a research paper shows that self-discipline outperforms IQ by a factor of 2.

Can you provide evidence for this claim?

Glad you found it. A very simple explanation I heard a while back (NPR?) was that the system is able to keep "mugshots" of intruders it has seen and then snip their DNA when there's a match with the mugshot.

Tangentially relevant is the way CRISPR works, and I would recommend the Nobel acceptance speeches by Jennifer Doudna and Charpentier.

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain that. This is something I wish I had read before going to uni. Knowing how to skillfully "extract knowledge" from an expert with a powerful question is a skill in itself. I wish there was more emphasis in education in uncovering tacit knowledge instead of simply being spoonfed the way it's been done for generations. This is helpful and I'm going to take this with me where-ever I go from now on.

Yeah it's called Arc :D

His name is dang not darn :P

it's a practice reaching as far back as cartography itself

Well yeah, but is your friend who works at <social media company> going to risk their position & salary there for some sketchy hook up that's less lucrative?

the links are the media, and the comments are also media.

newspapers are media, right?

so are digital newspapers also media?

what about just a collection of headlines?

and what did they mean? delete your facebook and instagram? I guess the focus is on the "content" and not the "people" but I didn't really know they were distinct categories until now

smoke signals are also media (as in mediums)

Really? Do you have any evidence to support this claim?

hacker news is not social and not media? :)
