SCOOP: Rufo’s examples are just the tip of the iceberg. In four articles published between 1993 and 2017, including her dissertation, Gay paraphrased or quoted almost 20 authors without proper attribution, in some cases lifting entire paragraphs verbatim.🧵freebeacon.com/campus/this-is…

"What makes a bouillabaisse different from other fish soups is the selection of Provençal herbs and spices in the broth; the way the fish are added one at a time, and brought to a boil; and the method of serving." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouillaba…

@michael_nielsen GPS

What's the best (known!) economic case for being in space? Is it asteroid mining?

@lissijean Most likely a consultant wrote it. Got payed. Probably a lot.

A lesson on how not to write a company vision.

@nalband @fortelabs B

I'm back to work on my visual book summary of Building a Second Brain by @fortelabs Which do you like better to represent "building a second brain"? A or B?

@CGLambdin What are the larger geo-political realities?

True experts display intellectual curiosity. Fake experts try to shut down debate.

@NeckarValue @rattibha

In the case of Google, Page and Brin combined elements for a superior and commercially successful search engine.

Enjoyed this book examining 'flashes of insight' and intuition, drawing on military strategy, neuroscience, and Eastern philosophy. Four step process based on Von Clausewitz: study history, ‘presence of mind’ allowing creativity to occur, eureka moment, resolute implementation.

@MikeKra36812131 Works with humans.

@logseq Logs’ equity

Close your eyes and think of Logseq… 🙈 What metaphors or shapes come to mind?

@bryanfcasey @threadreaderapp unroll

Over the last 9 months we’ve deleted close to 80% of the marketing footprint off ibm.com. Tens of thousands of pages. The result is that traffic, conversion and all our experience and NPS metrics are up. It was a gross project but I’ll tell you about it.

@brunowinck Not everything that comes to us is worth the effort to understand. Not everything that is worth the effort comes to us.

What is the benefit of PKM (according to me) - Better understanding of what comes to us - Faster retrieval at the point of need for knowledge If you fail at both, you are in Information management not in PKM

@shoppingtheatre @cortexfutura @tana_inc One has to start somewhere. One way to do it is to pick one accessible article, or maybe a lecture, or a set of related problems, and go from there.

@cortexfutura @tana_inc do you like have a top ten list of papers which you have sourced or are you still locating them? only texts that contain concepts in them are worth reading for those not directly working on any AI models, the AGI safety thing was for pros.

@MikeKra36812131 Won’t last long. Algorithms work best when there are simple rules to follow.

But any person with average intelligence can discriminate good from bad arguments. All they need to do is express their notes as sentences in subject phrase-predicate phrase form and then see if their argument follows a handful of simple rules. AI cannot do this (yet).

Any fans of Agile out there?

@MikeKra36812131 It can (and probably will) redefine what learning means in an interesting way.

What if GPT-5 could be trusted to extract deep analyses of texts? We could, conceivably, learn better and quicker.

@Jeanvaljean689 I just use #music in Roam for every piece/song/video I find remarkable at the moment. It makes resurfacing/revisiting/making a playlist for a year or a season rather trivial.

@ejames_c Better yet to call it “Newport’s Fallacy”.

Yes, Cal Newport, confirm all of my biases! youtube.com/watch?v=-3Lcyc…

“An interesting thing I have noticed … other professional thinkers I know, established professors, established writers, when they get to the higher levels of these fields, they’re much less likely to have any sort of organised system for making sense of potential ideas.”

@kadavy This made me think

A Zettelkasten isn’t so much a “second brain” as it is a “second short-term memory.” It allows easy review, but the information is eventually stored in your long-term memory (your first brain).

@kadavy Aren’t radio jingles designed to be sticky and memorable in the first place? They are definitely not just random of bits of data.

@grigorimilov Relative to a hard drive, our brains aren't good storage devices, but they're still remarkable. Play me the first few seconds a radio jingle I haven't heard since I was nine and I can probably complete if for you.
