@Riazi_Cafe_en Which text book or MOOC would you recommend for applied control theory/decision systems?

@patrickthedaddy Burning lakes!

Dubai has the tallest buildings. Switzerland has breathtaking mountains. What’s your country known for?

@0xdasha Chagnon pilled!

at this point i assume that emancipated western women are okay with third world sexism and misogyny because they secretly want the same treatment

@eastvillageguy Few know this but AI will save you from extinction

For the majority of written history, humans have lived in a state of Feudalism. The last few centuries have been an exception, not the norm. Would make perfect sense for AI to catalyze a return to the mean.

@systematicls I think it mainly comes from learnings of last 400 years of history.. massive populations limited resources. Do not stray too much. This might have changed in mainland China but it's pretty much the same in India. What is your take?

@systematicls It's literally risk averse trad Chinese & Indians ;)

My standard answer for anyone asking why the start-up ecosystem in Singapore isn't flourishing really comes down to institutionalized risk-aversion. In Singapore, there is a "standard" path that practically everyone goes through. From age 6 to age 24, there is an institutionalized path that you are more or less constitutionally and socially mandated to follow. If you stick within the confines of the path, you are "doing well". If you veer from this path, you get struck down as a failure. Ability to stick within the confines of the path is only a function of academic prowess. I've lived both sides of the world first as a traditional "overachieving scholar" and then dropping out of school once I decided to walk the path less traveled. The difference in attitude from society is stark. This breeds a mindset among most Singaporeans that there is a "correct" answer for all situations. You smell this fear of "being wrong" in all walks of life, at every layer, in all institutions. This belief system of thinking there is a clear cut answer to all situations is entirely at odds with what is required to invoke the dark alchemy of creating something from nothing. To create a start-up, you need to be radically comfortable with being wrong and being able to iterate ruthlessly towards the correct answers. The government however, WANTS to keep the current outcome. This mentality among society at large allows them to clip the left tails of failure, push the median up (we are, after all, highest GDP per capita in the world) and think that clipping the far right outcomes is a worthy price to pay. To be entrepreneurial in Singapore is to literally go against institutional and societal programming.

@aryehazan That's a vibe coder 😉

iq doesn’t measure anything too bad you lack the mental capacity to understand that

@quantbeckman What exactly would Markov transition structure mean here?

The guarantees assume linear monotone drift, Gaussian noise, regime persistence, and a clean Markov transition structure 🫤

@0xdasha @Polymarket Dear Jewess! What shall entertain you? 🤔

@Polymarket boring

JUST IN: China teases its first nuclear aircraft carrier.

Phew! Almost fell off of the upper end 😞

@AgustinLebron3 We're all going back to the good old world of guarding "trade secrets" as ethically very acceptable

Closed-source models for enterprise. Open-source models for consumer. Feels like the likely path at this point.

@sharmutal @cremieuxrecueil @HotForMoot Dear Jewess, "Rajshahi Indian Restaurant" is a meme

@0xJonnyDee THE!

Off topic for me, but curious about your thoughts. Anne Hathaway recently was named “The Most Beautiful Woman in the World in 2026” by People magazine. For me it's no. She's beautiful, but not "the most" beautiful. What do we think ct gooners? Who do you think is hotter?
