Blog link seems hugged.


Interesting stuff! Regarding game sales, other developers have had more success putting their games on physical media (particularly cartridges).

787s can both takeoff and land on autopilot. They can't handle taxiing to and from the gate, however.

Test it ASAP -- I'm an 80s/90s kid, I loved Pump Up The Volume and I did a little umm broadcasting of my own (so I love your vision) but I would have concerns that even if the larger FM stations aren't coming through there can still be enough power there (you should be able to test that though) to nix out your low-power signal.

Also:

Your area map seems a little big(?)

Good luck!


It's worse than that. It's ultimately a military technology. The end-game here is to use it offensively and / or defensively against other countries. Whoever establishes dominance first wins. And so you have to push adoption, so that it gets tested and can be iterated. But this isn't about making money (they are losing it like crazy!) This is end-of-the world shit and about whoever will be left standing once all the dominoes fall -- if they ever fall (let's hope they don't!)

But it's tacitly understood we need to develop this as soon as we can, as fast as we can, before those other guys do. It's a literal arms race.


Yeah, if you consider a military-grade AI/LLM with access to all military info sources, able to analyze them all much quicker than a human… there’s no way this isn’t already either in progress or in use today.

Probably only a matter of time until there’s a Snowden-esque leak saying AI is responsible for drone assassinations against targets selected by AI itself.


>Yeah, if you consider a military-grade AI/LLM with access to all military info sources, able to analyze them all much quicker than a human… there’s no way this isn’t already either in progress or in use today.

Still wouldn't mean much. Wars are won on capacity, logistics (the practical side, not ability to calculate them), land/etc advantages, and when it comes to boots on the ground, courage, knowledge of the place, local population support, etc. Not "analyzing info sources" at scale which is mostly a racket that pretends to be important.


Ok, I didn’t say anything about what you said though. I said it’s definitely either in progress or already implemented.

And I didn't refute anything about what you said. I said "Still wouldn't mean much."

This 100%. We're in the middle of an AI Manhattan Project and if "we" give up or slow down, another company or country will get AGI before "us" and there's no coming back after that. If there's a chance AGI is possible, it doesn't make sense to let someone else take the lead no matter how dangerous it could be.

The better analogy would be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Stargate

"If there's a chance psychic powers are real..."


One often forgets this.

With all the wackiness around AI, is this some Mutually Assured Delusion doctrine?

>The end-game here is to use it offensively and / or defensively against other countries.

Against other countries? The biggest endgame is own population control. That has always been the biggest problem/desire of elites, not war with other countries.


I've lost over 100lbs in the past year.

* I only eat one meal a day (supper). It's usually a very large meal, very high in lean protein.

* I avoid sugars and starches of all kinds and minimize other carbs (fruit, root veg, grains).

* After eating, I do 30 minutes on the treadmill.

For a middle-aged woman (a category which finds it particularly hard to lose weight) this has worked rather well. I can eat as much meat, (non-root) veg, dairy and soy as I want and I just keep losing weight.

So no, calorie restriction isn't the 'only way'.


isn't one meal a day another form of calorie restriction though?

It's very difficult to not be in a calorie deficit when you only eat once a day and are consistently active.


How do you know that spreading that one meal out throughout the day wouldn't have the same effect? I bet you'd have more energy as well.

Unless you have tested this, I find it hard to believe that this isn't really just a caloric deficit compared to whatever you were doing before losing weight, assuming the same activity level.


> spreading that one meal out throughout the day

Probably yes. But you're minimizing the difficulty of staying in caloric deficit.

IF you can stick to one meal per day AND eat mostly protein (vs. mostly sugar / carbs) THEN it's very hard to overeat i.e. be in caloric surplus.

If you snack many times a day, mostly sugar / carbs, and slosh it down with coke or red bull (non-diet, sugary version) it's very hard to keep eating under calorie limit. Sugar / carbs stimulate your hunger, leading to more eating. It's the opposite of Ozempic.

And your glucose levels are chronically elevated which is bad for our bodies. It's basically chronic inflammation.

Now, if you eat a steak once a day, you'll find it very hard to overeat. Like physically, you won't be able to eat too much.

It's still not easy to stick to that but it's simpler and easier than calorie count everything you eat throughout the day.


It probably would have the same effect, but the point is that a lot of people find it easier to stick to one meal a day (or similar) than multiple smaller meals.

I've always thought that you can lose weight on almost any diet - as long as it makes you think before you eat and almost by definition any diet will make you do that. For me at least most (probably all) of the time I eat it has nothing to do with hunger and if I just stop for a second I'll probably not eat at all.

> a lot of people find it easier to stick to one meal a day (or similar) than multiple smaller meals

I am highly skeptical of this take... is there any science behind it?


I believe research has mixed results on dietary compliance.

I can only speak anecdotally - if I start doing something enjoyable, it's hard to stop while it's still enjoyable. One of the benefits of an IF diet is you can start eating your main meal and continue until you're full.


What you've described is calorie restriction.

You restrict calories to one meal where you can't possibly eat 2000 calories at once with the ingredients.

Exercise + starting off at a high weight helps further.


What you describe in your diet is significant calorie restriction...

... is it? It really depends on how large that meal is. What if it's a daily mukbang?

> * It's usually a very large meal, very high in lean protein.

> * I avoid sugars and starches of all kinds and minimize other carbs (fruit, root veg, grains).

With lean protein and no sugars/starches, it's just not really possible for most people to overeat in a single meal that much unless you're really, really forcing yourself.


Not sure how seriously I should take diet info from someone named Kirby...

This study had no controls at all, and can safely be ignored.

>The participants reported not previously using noise to help them sleep or having any sleep disorders.

All this study said was that people who didn't need noise to sleep had their sleep disrupted when noise was introduced. It has absolutely no implication for people who use noise to help them sleep.

Meaningless trash.


This tells you all you need to know about OpenAI, honestly.

Personally I'd like to see the model get better at coding, I couldn't really care less if it's able to be 'creative' -- in fact i wish it wasn't. It's a waste of resources better used to _make it better at coding_.

Resources issue is really something that needs to be thought about more. These things already siphoned all existing semiconductors and if that turns out to be mostly spent on things like op does and viral cats then holy shit

Thing is dear people, we have limited resources to get out of this constraining rock. If we miss that deadline doing dumb shit and wasting energy, we will just slowly decline to preindustrial at best and that's the end of any space society futurism dreams forever.

We only have one shot at this, possibly singular or first sentients in the universe. It is all beyond priceless. Every single human is a miracle and animals too.


What is the difference between creativity and coding?

works excellent on m2 max -- thanks! good times.
