@CJHandmer @slatestarcodex @drethelin If you’re scanning from all directions you don’t really have to go “through” all that much anyway.

@SteaknShake Switch to organic 3 ingredient sourdough bread next.

@EileenChollet It could have gone through less dramatic version of what happened to Venus.

@GovRonDeSantis What stops them from raising non ad valorum taxes though. They’re already $1000 in my county.

[coffee pot @coffee_pot]

@RonDeSantis In my county they add on almost $1000 non-ad valorem fees or special assessments that aren’t even based on the value of the property.

Is there anything that stops them from simply increasing these fees?

@goblinodds Why incognito and why is it important for us to know that it’s incognito?

@j32pmxr @Tesla I’d like a “vent” button just to bring outdoor air inside on nice days. Seems like it’s several clicks and I’m not positive it’s actually doing that.

(Set temp below outside temp, ac off, recirc off)

@markusdd5 My only question is if humans and machines prefer the image on the right, why don’t we make cameras process them that way?

@tautologer I haven’t seen this idea stated so concisely before. Nice job!

Now also factor in Wolfram's central discovery is that simple programs generate immense complexity for free and you’ve got even more of a contrast.

@finbarrtimbers Yet we can’t afford to give them private offices.

@thegarybrecka I used to believe this but I’ve discovered I sleep a lot better with protein right before bed.

@ShksprnDngrMnky @martianwyrdlord But it still needs water to work. Venus has very little.

[coffee pot @coffee_pot]

@martianwyrdlord Why hydrogen over water? Where would you source the hydrogen from?

[coffee pot @coffee_pot]

@ShksprnDngrMnky @martianwyrdlord I thought of that but I don’t think there’s much water for life to survive on.

@BrianRoemmele Great write up. Could this approach be combined with language training to get the best of both worlds? (Presumably that’s how humans learn.)

@michaelandregg Are you suggesting synaptic weights aren’t as important as we thought? What do you think the role of synaptic weights is?

@Helios_Movement Great article! Btw I had heard the oxalate stuff was outdated and there’s no link?

[coffee pot @coffee_pot]

@kanzure @cube_flipper TIL! Would that work across a whole brain scan though or just a few neurons?

@minordissent @dunce_scotus_ More evidence for your idea is that AI quickly reached near human intelligence eg gpt2 to gpt4 but takes more and more compute to reach or surpass it.

[coffee pot @coffee_pot]

@minordissent @dunce_scotus_ It neatly answers the question, why didn’t humans evolve to be smarter. Well we’re probably at the point where doubling our brain size only gets a few percent more intelligent.
