@elonmusk @pmarca "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said flying cars."

@pmarca By far. A flying car is just a helicopter with wheels.

It turned out Twitter was more important than flying cars.

Ai art is actually punk if you think about it. Everyone hates it, it's a counter culture movement, it will be the future. Nothing gets more punk than ai art

@lowkeyloud_ that's true. how do you measure yourself becoming/being the best version of yourself? you might think that you are being honest or genuine but the natural self defensive or instinct for bias is already there. winning matters as an external factor to judge you being your best.

your potential, the absolute best you’re capable of, that’s the metric to measure yourself against. winning is not enough. people can get lucky and win. people can be assholes and win. anyone can win. but not everyone is the best possible version of themselves.

@arjunkhemani @elonmusk coz he's afraid of losing it 🤷

.@elonmusk (worth $250B) answers why he’s still working: I think it's a good question you asked, because it goes to, like, at a foundational level, what is my philosophy, and why does it lead to this conclusion? So the reason is that when I was a teenager, I had, like, an existential crisis to try to figure out what's the meaning of life. There doesn't seem to be any meaning. For me, at least the religious texts, and I read all of them that I could get my hands on did not seem convincing. Then I started reading the philosophers. Be careful of reading German philosophers as a teenager. It's definitely not going to help with your depression. So reading Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, as an adult, it's much more manageable. But as a kid, you're like, “Whoa.” So then I was like, “Man, I'm just struggling to find meaning in life here.” And then I read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. And basically what Douglas Adams was saying is that we don't really know what the right questions are to ask. The question is not, “What's the meaning of life?” In The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Earth it turns out is a big computer, and its goal is to answer the question, “What's the meaning of life?” And Earth comes up with the answer “42”. This is where the 42 number comes from. And 420 is just ten times 42. In that book, which is really sort of a book about, it's an existential philosophy book disguised as humor. They come to the conclusion that, no, the real problem is trying to formulate the question. And to really have the right question, you need a much bigger computer than Earth. And so maybe one way, I think, of characterizing this would be to say, “The universe is the answer. What is the question? Or what are the questions?” The more we can expand the scope and scale of consciousness, the better we can understand what questions to ask about the answer that is the universe. The more we can expand consciousness, become a multi-planet species, ultimately a multistellar species… we have a chance of figuring out what the hell is going on. And so this is why I think we should have more humans and both biological and digital consciousness. And why we should become a multi-planet species and a multistellar species is so that we can understand the nature of the universe. And then in order for that to occur, then we have to make sure that things are good on Earth. We don't want Earth to disappear, so sustainable energy is important.

@CapacitiesHQ Is there a "comment" feature planned? As in, you can add comments to a selected portion of the content and all the comments can be opened in a separate pane - either on right or below the text. Like, comments are a type/object on their own.

@Hamptonism learning itself is a passive act; making something is the actual act

You can’t learn math passively. Do you agree?

looks awesome, nice work

Discipline is a bondage that sets us free.

@fchollet More like, Form forms function than Form follows function?

In science and engineering, I feel like having a sense of aesthetics is dramatically more useful than being marginally more intelligent
