@robinhanson Wow.

Nature, the spokesjournal for expert opinion,
opposes prediction markets,
Which are the best known solution to the problem that
Expert opinion has a HORRID track record for prediction success

Who'd've thought?

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@robinhanson Yes, we do.

@NathanJ04060931 Pink:
Shooter-initiated contact isn't a foul

@TheLukaVerse Defense is HALF the game. Wemby is the most impactful defender the game has ever seen.

It's like Magic with passing, or Curry with 3-pointers, AI with handles, or Jordan scoring. A whole new category just arrived, and it's named Wemby.

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@td_nash In the US?

Jordan, Ruth, Ali.

Internationally? Pele then Ali then Jordan.

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@Novig the 3 most impressive individual defensive presences in the history of the NBA are Bill Russell, Tim Duncan, and Wemby.

This is ... not fair.

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@VinnysCorner1 in almost all discussions, yes.

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@HawkEmDownChris Magic normally lists as top-5 ever. Bird normally top-10 ever. <sarcasm> Huge difference. </sarcasm>

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@VinnysCorner1 Really? No Manu, no Parker, no Klaw on your exclude list?

I mean ... this is a good start, but missing at least 2 people with Finals MVPs from Spurs, and the captain of the only non-US gold medal Basketball team.

@uscfan981 That's funny.

@buckets Shifty lefty sixth man

I will say we're short a 2nd big -- Diaw or Splitter or Robinson, compared to the old school.

@robinhanson Multiple questions concealed as one.
Why did they lose? (D)

Why do people dislike them...
(E) killing relatively defenseless folks

Bad timing on (C) -- they built the last big war.

@tardwife4life Marriage was historically an economic trade

Woman uses her womb to carry his genetic children.
Man provides and protects woman/children.
Man's children inherit.

Female cheating is a violation of this contract.

Circumstances have changed. Emotional responses haven't.

@miles_commodore Kobe, Curry, Hakeem are consensus 10-12, in some order. I put Curry 10, Hakeem 11, Kobe 12.

@wil_da_beast630 The test here is Humane Tuna, not people's aspirations for what they do. How many people buy careful expensive tuna in a can vs. the cheap thing on the shelf?

Unless you're talking about bans.

@charlesmurray I was concerned that it was after 4: HYPS

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@wordgrammer That said ... I have put in the 100 hour weeks, strangely, as a teacher -- literal 80h/week of student contact + prep, grading, etc.

[Kyle Aretae @aretae]

@wordgrammer I'm not sold on the SWE shift.

The cost of error * the difficulty of finding the error with hallucinating LLMs is significant. And that kind of brain work fizzles after about 4-5 hours a day. You're JUST no longer able to do much.
