@tenobrus I was kind of wondering why imdb and rottentomatoes were sites to search when I was asking about AWS IAM permissions.

@rfleury Who knew there were so many similarities between sex ed and coder ed.

@jovy_shona @JCFights Thyroid condition. It can be treated with medication or cured with radiation therapy.

@edels0n Wait until people realize how much water brushing teeth uses.

@GTdoubleE @emollick The Blight is bad, but the structure of the FUtD galaxy seemed to make it somewhat safer for human intelligence than the Singularity Sky universe.

@catwithaura Most literal "cat's paw" I've seen to date.

@itsolelehmann Given we've never made any progress in extending max human lifespan, 150 seems like an odd choice. These results are great for 90-105 or so, but 150 requires advances so far outside what we can see you might as well claim full-fledged negligible senescence.

@palashshah It requires billions of dollars of ongoing training to get the next cohort of children to read any document, and even so the number of them that master the top five most common formats for writing is miniscule. Standards are hard.

@cory_fitz @AndyMasley It's not really "engaging with philosophy of mind" if they're rehashing a 46 year old idea is if they just had it for the first time.

@Noahpinion I'm still kind of amazed that AI progress sped up fast enough that we started calling something useful AI. For decades, useful tech derived from AI research got a different name (expert systems, computer vision, ML) and "AI" was reserved for the research frontier.

@grugcapital I don't keep a running inventory of my buckets. More than 5 and less than 20?

@HistoryBoomer I get what you're saying, but I kind of fell off at the pre-grated cheese part. They should work up to grating cheese before they work up to sauce from scratch.
