I can't hate AI after this youtube.com/shorts/ZT5kp...

I will be in San Jose, Costa Rica 🇨🇷, in the last week of October. These are two public events I'll be doing at UCR.

Can't wait to meet new people, experience a new country, and add a rare country point to my #groundhopping tally.

Basically, they identify relevant dimensions of Confucianism and then identify corresponding questions in Asiabarometer

I enjoyed this paper, very interesting measurements for Confucian values www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Three panel thing. In the left panel we use error bars. In the second, we take statistical significance as the biggest number but still have error bars. In LLM science, we just have the biggest number

What if we did a single run and declared victory

Wow. Killing an average of 5 people a week. The cartels can’t possibly manage to work around those kinds of attrition rates.

We had a NATO coalition and tens of thousands of troops in Afghanistan for 20 years and never managed to stop the cultivation of opium.

I have no idea what sort of brain damage the Trump administration has that makes them think they’re going to drone strike their way into ending cocaine use.

igual creo que no pq la lógica monárquica es que el monarca tiene una responsabilidad paternalista por los súbditos

Talvez alguna forma de teoría política monárquica pre-Hobbesiana (tipo derecho divino?)

No me parece. La lógica de todos los que conozco es que si no da servicios, se debe eliminar. Nótese que los servicios pueden ser solo tener monopolio de la fuerza.

"In no system that could be rationally defended would the state just do nothing" Hayek, Road to Serfdom: definitive edition, p. 88. This is what I mean

Yeah, was kind of mocking how much he missed the mark with basically a crappier version of Second Life, which is sketchy in its use to begin with.

Me da risa que tanto Adam Smith como Hayek estén a favor de que el Estado dé ciertos servicios a la población (construir caminos, etc.), lo que me hace preguntarme: ¿de dónde rayos salió el arquetipo de mae loco que los cree anarco-capitalistas? ¿Quién empezó eso?

Except perhaps Zuckerberg with his metaverse?

what the hell Frank Knight

Lol German has a word for a dispute over methods in research (Methodenstreit)

Está interesante, Simon dice que ciencias cognoscitivas e inteligencia artificial cada vez iban a necesitar más lingüistas, particularmente gente interesada en crítica literaria y retórica.

La persona que tradujo "queueing theory" como "teoría de colas" de fijo está en el infierno.

Herbert Simon paper about AI history

Lol didn't even notice Sliwa was running, the guy that cosplays as a soldier and said "he believed the man was a migrant because he spoke Spanish and had been encountered with other Spanish speakers during patrols. "

Mirá no sabía que había negacionistas centroamericanos

still from The Simpsons Season 37 Episode 2 - two yellow kids are in a server room. one (kid with blue hair buzzed on the sides and wearing an orange and black cardigan) has a blank, surprised expression, and the other (the famous bart simpson) looks at him with mild contempt

simpsons added a few kids to springfield who are born this century and it makes sense for a lot of reasons but also i cant help but think 'Bart is thirty years older than that other kid'

the man on the right has made it his life's mission to capture Lupin the Third
