How do you use it exactly? I have wanted to use it for writing narrative documents but I need to give it so much context it just gives me general platitudes. Maybe for simple emails it’s fine?

Because that was the cohort studied, not because the opposite is true for men only. As it says in the article previous studies indicate the effects may be even greater for men.

I can’t help feeling like sand running through my fingers. All the low hanging fruit applications for GPT are getting taken by companies fortuitously in place to take advantage of the them. It feels l…

Please enlighten us. I figure the company is likely Amazon, and it’s some core service like EC2 given that underpins basically everything and has different agents running on each box that are handled …

How can we be sure it’s of abiotic origin?

As someone who worked too long at an office with non-existent ventilation and a fetish for long, closed door meetings, my motto became: “Take a break. Go outside. Walk around the block. Never come bac…

If you don’t know what you care about, spend time figuring that out first, even if it takes longer than you feel like it should. A good place to start is Cal Newport’s podcast Deep Questions

This seems like great advice for breaking down the problem. Thank you!

Interesting take. I thought I made it abundantly clear I don’t know what I don’t know and am looking to see if the idea is even worth pursuing farther? Perhaps the components exist, perhaps they don’t…

Great idea. Thanks

Definitely an in group vocabulary. This article is actually quite light on the lingo, but a couple other big ones are “a priori” and “update your priors”. Basically an attempt at applying statistical …

It’s time to place all chemicals in the “unsafe until proven safe” category.

Top title: “The baby I was supposed to deliver on twitter”. Man this is good.

As one former early Tesla engineer remarked to me “Your chances of being summarily fired go up exponentially when you are in the same room as Elon”

But that spawned the traveling delivery truck problem.

Bootstrap! It’s the only one I could think of but it certainly had a big impact on lots of people, enabling a lot of devs who were bad at design and responsiveness to make halfway decent looking websi…
