@ZyMazza You mean the parts where they stop for commentary and long dialogues right in the middle of a fight when there’s supposed to be serious time pressure and they’re just yapping instead?

@QiaochuYuan men fake avoidant attachment because there are Very Strong Incentives to do so(openly anxiously attached men generally do not get many dates). If you fake it long enough you win the prize of disorganized attachment too

@rob_mcrobberson Correctism is whatever I believe which is by definition correct. If you don’t believe it you’re not actually a correctist, and since one of the core tenets or correctism is loudly believing in correctism it neatly solves the problem of crypto-correctists

@ThomasODuffy @thrialectics About 3 years ago I had access to this information (Oliver was the honorable-ish opposition) and I suspect he’s counting vulnerable plugins, not total vulns, though whenever I put out ambiguously interpreteble data I tried to be explicit and show counts by both if possible

@MunicipleOrrery Realistically the pattern when young is mostly “do thing to meet girls, find out you like it for its own sake, and only then does it actually work for the original purpose”. The key part is being open to liking things for their own merits even if they don’t immediately pay off

@shinboson Interesting. All I can think of is that time scientists spent a bunch of effort overengineering a detailed internally modeled fish, bones and all, and then found that a rubber fish of the same density and net elasticity basically swam identically

@mishapathy I don’t after trying a few people’s decks and finding them unsatisfactory and decided to just use physical flash cards but I’m realizing that was a limitation of the deck creators and not the platform. Much to ponder on, I think it’s more flexible than I gave it credit for
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy Really seems like excellent anki users are already making it work something like this. It’s just maybe not obvious given the somewhat pitiful anki decks I’ve seen. And the point about intuitions about relative orders of magnitude from that link is huge and something I’ve noticed
Oct 12

@mishapathy Mmm I’ll check this out, glad someone has already thought of this part
Oct 12
1010—

@mishapathy I’m sure it is but I bet I could bring a unique spin to it. Though after this conversation I’m thinking the key skill to train is “rederive from a memorized anchor”
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy But in a world where you can look up most constants it’s the relationships between them that matters and that’s much harder to train with spaced repetition or learn at all without fully grokking them
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy Especially if you can anchor off of one and rederive several others from it. Compute/memory tradeoff
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy My end goal is to be able to fill in arbitrary blanks with enough surrounding context, and it turns out that most things fall to that but there are specific constants that do require either spaced repetition or regular use, there’s just far fewer of them than you’d think
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy Nah, I think we’re just aiming for different things
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy All this may not work well for other people but I’ve got very poor short-term memory, mediocre long-term memory, but really quite good world-mapping and test very well so reconstructive/inferential methods are my go-to
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy And the absence of human social/hierarchical judgment and the presence of something that can clarify based on your guesses and what you got right vs wrong makes for something really powerful
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy But it turns knowledge acquisition into skill-based gambling via intermittent reinforcement
Oct 12

@mishapathy I guess it’s “how to be wrong in a fun way and right in a really satisfying way”, impossible without LLMs or a personal tutor really
Oct 12
1010—

@mishapathy And at each step a “what do you think this implies” or “what happens next”(works for history-no silly gotchas but “you think the siege held out this time?”)

@mishapathy Basically directed wiki walk to tune intuitions

@mishapathy So ok-blackbody radiation. I looked at the curves being asymmetric and thought “maybe that’s because there’s an asymmetric distribution of heat?” But that is Definitely False and now I know both that and the much weirder reason the curves are asymmetric (geometric modes)
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy And if I’m right I can trust my inference for that going forward and the fact is already latent in the knowledge framework
Oct 12
1010—
600
@mishapathy I remember facts much better when I can fit them into a knowledge framework instead of treating them in isolation. Ask me to predict what would happen based on my existing knowledge and one new fact-if I’m wrong for a surprising reason I’ll remember that reason and the new fact

@daniellellecco I think some of the trouble is that many brilliant men tend to have the same problems and when you have two people who rarely brook disagreement because they’re (almost) always right the gender dynamics can come into play on the motivation layer even if they mostly agree

@Alphiloscorp @hkozachkov Yes exactly. Closest thing I get to reasoning is “the sentence for a crime is a bet, a pareto compromise between deterrence, incapacitation, and punishment” and since I don’t believe in punishment as an intrinsic good, removing the need for incapacitation leaves only deterrence

@thefemalegazed I might need to feed it to Claude Fable because the particular shape of that mind seeing everything at once is something I don’t think a human can fully emulate at all, though it’s close the tarot-style intuitive leaps I tend to favor for really big messy stuff

@cynlioness Depends. Lately? Some of them more maybe. Historically-probably most of them more, then way less. Don’t get carried away quite as often but also possible to get carried away without actually feeling them much which makes it impossible to tell for sure about others
