Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Your Discord messages could soon show up on Google.

Starting in mid-December, Discord will let public messages from “Discoverable” servers be indexed by Google and other search engines, per TC.

It’s on by default for adult users in the US and most countries

It’s off by default in the EU, UK, Canada, Brazil, Australia and South Korea

Only public channels in Discoverable servers are included, not private servers or DMs

Usernames and avatars won’t appear next to indexed messages

Messages sent before the rollout won’t be indexed

[Tanuj Kakumani @_simplytk]

only you have the best knowledge of your goals and vision

so only you can make the right decisions for you

For anyone getting into biology, please consider taking airborne disease resistance more seriously.

It's a super important area of medicine that is a huge cause of death and sickness but easily gets forgotten. We're likely to get many more airborne plagues in the future due to the combination of not just extremely dense and interconnected society (including city and farm animals), but also accidents from bio research and offensive biotech (both from random people and from secret government programs that can easily get themselves exempted from safety restrictions), all enhanced by powerful AI.

Right now, this area is getting way less love than longevity research (which continues to be super important!), but it's an area where there are lots of unclaimed wins that we know exactly how to do (but are not yet doing) with present-day tech:

* early detection
* passive universal testing
* filtration/ventilation/UVC
* better vaccines (including making them open source and open science)
* cryptography to make all of the above privacy-preserving

We can have China-level pandemic resistance with Sweden-level limited intrusion into people's lives, and then go even further. We just have to actually do the work for it.

We really gotta teach STEM majors the importance of not making things sometimes

You might have 1–5 years to contribute intellectually to the world before AGI. What should you do with them?

Excellent advice from @jaschasd (Anthropic) at Stanford. Skip Netflix tonight and watch this instead.

I need all the AI people to stop saying "biology" when they mean "medicine" or "drug development"
