Yeah, it's interesting how the practice of only listing surnames works well in cultures where people have long and distinct surnames (and often common first names) and is just silly in cultures where surnames are short and common and most of the information content of the name is in the first name.
I mostly agree with you, but there's something to be said for keeping the poverty away from city centres, which is some of the most economically productive land per unit area. American poverty seems to congregate in cities, presumably because the cities can afford it, but that seems precisely the wrong perspective.
Well, I presume you have to figure out how to evaluate their output, especially for trustworthiness. And that's something you have to do the core of yourself, no matter how many AI researchers you'll have.
I think this runs counter to the purpose of having a stock market. The stock market is not supposed to let everyone can gamble on a level playing field, it is supposed to make it as easy as possible for companies to raise money.
One problem is that many problems seem easier than they are, and you only find out that they're hard by failing to solve them. I have often wondered how many unremarkable foundational results would be considered major accomplishments if they didn't have the mis(?)fortune of being found by the first person who tried.
FIDE Laws of Chess: 11.5 - "It is forbidden to distract or annoy the opponent in any manner whatsoever. This includes unreasonable claims, unreasonable offers of a draw or the introduction of a source of noise into the playing area."
Naturally, this rule is not interpreted literally.
> Presumably, if a passage of any significant length is cited verbatim (or almost verbatim), there would have been a way to track that source through the weights.
Figure this out and you get to choose which AI lab you want to make seven figures at. It's a really difficult problem.
Yes, that's almost certainly true. It's very odd that American schools generally run their undergraduate admissions with minimal input from their faculty.
This is ridiculous, Rowling's political views are completely unremarkable for a 58-year old woman and if anything leans liberal. Very few normies in their late fifties would survive the scrutiny she got.
Yes, I would expect amount of work per paper to stay roughly constant in a healthy research community. The whole point of writing papers should be to communicate what you did and found so that others don't have to do the same thing, and I think the amount of work would be the relevant variable that determines the amount of information that has to be transferred.
The theory is actually that some people have standards, some people just want to advance, and in the long run the latter will inevitably dominate the organization.
>Jesse some guy tried to overthrow the US government and he isn't in jail. Once you get enough $ meaningful punishment is mostly out of the question here...
If you're talking about Trump, he's possibly the worst example you could pick for your case, as his treatment has nothing to do with his wealth and everything to do with the fact that he is the previous President...
Reddit mods already have bots that do this for them. Subscribing to/commenting in the wrong subreddit will get you banned from a whole host of subreddits.
Ludicrous. Your models of biology and the moon may predict that, but the chances of your models being significantly wrong are certainly much greater than zero.
