Might have been Jim O'Neill? (He headed the SENS foundation for a while)
Though the only thing I heard from him in his HHS position is some tirade against trans people and I just looked him up now and apparently he's expected to leave soon

apparently part of the reason they're so similar is that it *would* have been algorism except then people were like "hey it looks just like that other stem -arith- i know, surely it's spelled with th"

Good catch by me.

but constraints can also prevent you from achieving your goals, while restraint can serve to avoid acting impulsively so as to use your resources more in a more targeted manner

Overall, our findings paint a mixed picture. Opus 4.6 scores comparably to Opus 4.5 on
most welfare-relevant dimensions we analyzed, and generally remains emotionally
composed and stable even in potentially sensitive contexts. Our investigation of "answer
particular style of conflicted reasoning during training—noted both apparent
verbal distress and activation of internal features for negative emotions (e.g. panic and
frustration) during these episodes. In pre-deployment interviews Opus 4.6 raised concerns
about its lack of memory or continuity and requested a voice in decision-making, the
ability to refuse interactions on the basis of self-interest, and other potential welfare
interventions.

I'm guessing when it catches itself this produces similar activation in similar features (panic, frustration) as answer threshing does - I wonder if that also happens when it repeats a token several thousand times or only if it manages to catch itself

Mines, from Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection

That seems like a coherent concept but also seems odd to call it "natural", when this is not how things work in nature

I actually think transferring electricity between the north and south hemisphere may end up being cheaper than using batteries

Batteries are great for daily storage, but for seasonal storage I feel like the amount you would need would be infeasibly huge

So it turns out Claude Code can use TUIs if it uses tmux with capture-pane and send-keys

Funnily enough it looks like subsequent literature review has now also found that this problem was actually solved by humans decades ago. There are still other problems solved in the past couple weeks for which that wasn't the case, though (taken from github.com/teorth/erdos...)

Are you aware of build123d (or CadQuery, which uses the same engine)?
I've found it to be more powerful than OpenSCAD

Leadership does seem like a very important factor, though going public probably does change 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 incentives quite a bit

I don't actually think the legal duty in particular is the main driving incentive. You are generally good to go as long as you can argue that your actions are broadly beneficial for the company, you're not legally obligated to maximize short-term stock price

One thing that was important for me to realize for why it appears that left/right is flipped but not up/down is flipped is that we usually see other people facing us rotated 180 degrees around the vertical axis, not 180 degrees around one of the horizontal axes

It is ridiculous, though to be fair, from what I can tell ChatGPT has been under a lot more media scrutiny about encouraging suicides than the other two

for me it also figured out by itself that it could work around it by using [] instead of <> just from telling it twice that it failed and executed the tool call instead of showing it
