How can this bag of shite still have an audience beyond one that fits into a small garage?

Tucker claims the words "could this be the antichrist?" never left his lips. NYT shows a clip of him saying exactly that:

@XFreeze >up to 97%
giving an upper cap on the share you get isn't the smart marketing move you think it is
English
𝕏 now does not take a pay cut from your Creator Subscription revenue
You keep up to ~97% of gross revenue
𝕏 takes ZERO platform share
Only third-party fees (payment processing, app store fees, refunds/chargebacks) are deducted
𝕏 is the only major platform that doesn’t take any pay cut from creator subscriptions and lets you keep nearly all the revenue you earn
This is massive for creators

@QiaochuYuan @a_fellow_of well, it might be surprisingly hard to shake because it reflects the reality of a large share of the male population
English
@a_fellow_of i think there's a surprisingly hard to shake stereotype that men are the ones who have to work hard or they'll be all alone. there are plenty of lonely women too but they've been much less visible in the discourse (maybe this has been changing due to femcel discourse?)
English
this raises the interesting question: why is the stereotype in my head that men will get whacked by this but women won’t?

r/myboyfriendisAI apparently has 36k weekly visitors which is 10x more than r/mygirlfriendisAI. someone tweeted years ago that everyone was worried about AI girlfriends but they thought AI boyfriends would be even worse and i think they’ll end up being vindicated by history

@amphichrome_ which is downstream of using a pan that you can heat to meaningful temperatures without destroying its non-stick properties (aka using steel/iron cookware)

@angeris elegant. had never realized how far you can go without ever saying 'ideal.'

anyways, if you've ever been interested in the connection between somewhat abstract nonsense, the chinese remainder theorem, and linear algebra, this one might be for you!

@andrewgwils or maybe academic administrators should finally realize that citation metrics reveal very little about the inherent quality of the work
English
Papers about Gaussian processes should get a 10x citation multiplier on Google scholar. Vision papers get x/10.

@angeris for me, it's inverse solipsism: everyone's minds are real except mine.

there's only two conscious people in the world: you, dear reader, and me

there is at best 10m "conscious and self-aware people living on earth rn"

@DiracDeltaFunk maximumness, clearly. maximumity is the obv runner-up.

"Maximal" is to "Maximality"

"Maximum" is to ????

@prz_chojecki for you to make this statement with any reasonable degree of confidence would require you to have read hundreds of 20-page dense (no intro etc) math papers over a variety of research topics and accurately gauged their correctness.
I don't think so
English
We're living in a 10-page world currently.
GPT-5.5 Pro can do a 10-page long reasoning on any math topic, which will be 99% correct 19 out of 20 times (and less correct in the remaining 1/20).
You can push it to 20 pages with the right harness and the right problem (independent parts).
The consequences of that are yet to be grasped fully, but in principle this already automates 95% of math research which is usually 5-10 pages based on using methods from previous 2-3 papers in a new setting. This kind of synthesis-proof GPTs excel at.
They can't see analogies across domains yet, they can't find new concepts, they lose coherence over 10 pages quickly, but these 5-10 pages arguments are perfect.
It means two things:
- it's going to change science completely
- getting to AGI is still non-trivial from here

Consider "N-page world" - a world where people only prove math results that: - take at most N pages, but can refer to any previously proven results - must be of independent interest (cannot be meaningless intermediate steps towards other theorems) What % of currently known math is derived in a 1-page world? Does 5-page world contain all the same results as our world? For example, if a theorem of 50 pages can be decomposed into ten 5-page steps and each step is of independent interest, then this theorem is proven in a 5-page world. But if all 50 pages are exclusively developed for this specific theorem, it will only be derived in 50+ pages world Reason for asking: we can wonder how far current LLMs can be pushed assuming that they can successfully search for any 5-page proof.

@shelbyruthellis hm. so i think i know what you're getting at but i really do think there is a masculine version of psychological abuse also. it's more intellectual than emotional iykwim? like a guru telling his cult the way the world works kind of stuff
English
Men abuse physically, women abuse psychologically and the sexes will not be viewed as equals until we acknowledge their abuses as equally consequential

@MattLutzPhi getting riled up by this is buying into the frame. all it did was measure who gets sucked into game theory mode by the abstract setup and who imagines a real world lifelike scenario. real people would just overthrow whoever runs such experiments.

I see a lot of people saying that the blue button is collectivist nonsense. But if you press red, your kid dies.
You're safe, though. You got that calculated out right.

@luigifoschini I've been looking forward to the pipes of the academic sewer system bursting from the LLM-induced 'diarrhea at scale' experiment currently underway.
English
"If a Large Language Model (LLM) can replicate your scientific contribution, the problem is not the LLM. What does it say about our field that so much of the anxiety about AI comes down to the fear that a machine could do what we do? Perhaps it says we should be doing something better."

I'm fully prepared to admit that it may simply be the function of me being trapped in an epistemological cocoon and not seeing the alternative viewpoint, but has there been a convincing case made for the EU garnering *any* practical benefit from the refugee/migrant influx?

@ben_j_todd @benhayesnyc @StefanFSchubert I see your point but that's a bad example. the service at these places know what they do and add value in many ways. try overpriced mid quality restaurants with underpaid rude staff. they can be replaced.
English
@benhayesnyc @StefanFSchubert If the issue is the environment, imagine a meal could magically appear in whatever surrounding you prefer. The point is that the social aspect could be unbundled from the others.
English
If a 2* Michelin meal could magically appear on your dining table, would you prefer that to going somewhere to have a waiter hover at your elbow?
How many "relational" jobs are actually a tax on luxury services many would prefer to unbundle?

Sometimes the value of a 'human touch' is negative. People willing to pay 50% more for Waymo than Lyft, despite longer waiting times.

@justalexoki suppose there are a red and a blue button. if you press the red button, the button question remains the button question. if you press the blue one, you can reframe the button question to everyone currently thinking about the button question. what do you do?
English
@Tuxsoia @DmitryRybin1 this could be made more formal via a small-separator property of the dependency graph, for instance. but anyways this is just re-engineering exhaustive search over all possible logical derivations, with fuzzy LLM edge transition probabilities as guiding heuristic.
English
@DmitryRybin1 The "is of independent interest" does such a lot of heavy lifting here. I doubt we live in a 5 page world though, on relatively reasonable assumptions on what is interesting. Maybe we live in a 20 page one? Cool thought experiment, honestly no idea.

@MathMatize more like Definition 1.44, Lemma 7.12(b), unspecified general theory from the 800-page monograph [87] and a modification of the proof of Theorem 4.10

“Proof: Follows immediately from Definition 1.1, Proposition 1.2, and Lemma 1.3”
