@TheMingjie Inconsequential. Your working definition of engineering appears flawed due to language/lack of cultural insight. No serious researcher in the sciences looks down on engineering. However, I explained why - for researchers - purely applied work is valued with a heavy dicount.

@thecaptain_nemo Grifters always find a way to parasitise value.

Clear top signal when they break in a startup/company/anything really.

@tonylfeng It is not possible to design seminars on AI heuristics for maths research when model capabilities change this frequently and AI for math is essentially a duopoly which plays a lot of games (performance of top range models fluctuates degradation/improvement by the daily).

You don’t realize just how easy it is to be in the top 10% until you see how lazy 90% of people are

You don’t realize just how hard it is to be in the top 1% until you see how driven the other 10% of people are

All good traits correlate. People hate this. That hot girl is probably smarter than you. Life isn't fair.

The experience of becoming a mathematician is the experience of finding out that these apparent cognitive limits are just temporary plateaus (which can last weeks, months, years, decades).

You can only be a sensitive young man if you’re 16 or if you have ten million dollars. If you’re 27 and broke you have really need to keep that shit inside until you have motion

Insane to me how a “high IQ” platform like Twitter still goes bananas over AI slop as long as it’s packaged in Article format

If this is real (remote possibility though) then the bicameral mind theory should be dusted off and evaluated seriously for w/e merits. How humans interacted with a world they had ~0 understanding of and in which they had almost no agency remains one of the greatest mysteries.

New ai psychosis just dropped: return of the pre Bronze Age bicameral mind

The fundamental flaw of pointing out how the people around you are is that *you selected / were selected into this environment*. When I was frustrated at work I was really frustrated with myself for not making the cut to work with higher caliber people.
