@GaryMarcus @littmath @polynoamial Answered an hour ago, no lean https://t.co/DDIKMhrCtr

[Noam Brown @polynoamial]

Since people are asking, no it did not use Lean. But I don't think it should matter anyway.

.@potatoarecool Love the ChatGPT desktop app, but can we have markdown formatted text for the response copy button?

My current workflow is to remember to ask "... and put it in a canvas". Or forget, and open the web app just to click the copy button there (which does support markdown)

@tobi A year later, another Canada Post strike. Please add a https://t.co/JTiCl72ZtI filter for shipping method! Checking store after store and it's hard to find the ones providing non-Canada Post shipping.

[tobi lutke @tobi]

At least 67k small businesses on Shopify use Canada Post, and will be affected by them going on strike right on BFCM weekend. Canada Post has a government monopoly on delivering to P.O. boxes and is the only carrier supplying rural areas. This should not be allowed.

@NTFabiano I could believe the claim, but the data is garbage, unless you think the effect it retrocausal. The three populations should look the same before the exercise dose.

Use of AI by patients to resolve life-threatening healthcare gaps and errors is a peek at real-world AI impact, and coming collisions with incumbent health industry interests.

@RohitKale23 @getjonwithit No, no fixed background. This is confusion re: intrinsic vs extrinsic curvature. Spacetime has intrinsic curvature, but no extrinsic curvature, ie: there is no background embedding space that space time lives inside.

@HistoryBoomer 3 cards in front pocket, who need a wallet? Are these people that still have landlines and cable TV?

@ednewtonrex It's a great piece @ednewtonrex and gets closer to the key factor than most: the AI national interest issue. I expect though that that will be the deciding factor but nobody wants to say it yet.

I’ve been quiet on the AI & copyright issue for a reason.
So have a lot of people.

Yesterday the WSJ published a supposed "Exclusive", "U.S. Plans to Use Tariff Negotiations to Isolate China".

But if you follow @matthew_pines, you've known the geoeconomic strategy in play since before last November

There's still very high signal-noise ratio in certain X accts
