@RatOrthodox The website having not changed makes me feel better about like the explicit deadline vs this check (I normally would be cool and chill about this, but the vibe at-event of being kicked on a hard deadline is pushing part of my brain into Actually Try mode).

@NoahTopper @Aella_Girl I submitted yesterday and am sending a paranoid confirmation tweet of my own
English

@Aella_Girl I’m probably being paranoid but I didn’t get a confirmation email when I applied and it would be good to know if my application was definitely received

@robbensinger I recently 'got' a lot of college students with (burning a bunch of paper exams, they burned bright blue, the most confident hypothesis was the ink in the paper, no one predicted I had secretly added metal powder to do explicitly this even after suggesting I had done so before)

(Dominiq also solved lesswrong.com/s/5uZQHpecjn79… on the first try, so there's also maybe an element here of 'some puzzles are easier when you don't trust people'.)

I showed the original tweet to my partner, Dominiq. In under five seconds, they said: "This is a clip from a real Monet painting, I'm pretty sure." And: "I'm pretty sure I know which painting that is."
They said: "Impressionism was partially fueled by paint becoming available in tubes that you could carry out with you into the field. The idea of capturing the light as it stood, in that moment.
"Please think of Degas and his ballerina dancers. People at luncheons in the sunshine. People dancing. A lot of my favorite impressionist pictures are people dancing. Trying to capture the light on their clothes, as they moved.
"The special thing about Monet, which makes him stand out to me, is that he was losing his eyesight. And was deeply in love with his garden. And so a lot of the style that people associate with Monet was what he actually saw as his eyesight reduced down -- to light, color, and shadow. When you look at Monet, you are seeing through Monet's failing eyes. And as you look at his later work, you can see as his eyesight grew worse and worse. Which, I suppose, looks more and more 'impressionist.'
"I've spent a long time staring at Monet's pictures. Trying to decide what was an artistic choice, to represent something, and what was him trying to express what he actually saw.
"I think part of the reason why I've stared at so much Monet is because my grandmother was also a gardener, who loved her garden. Who lost her eyesight to diabetes, and who I knew only ever in my life as blind, and obsessing about her garden out the window which she could barely see, asking me to describe it to her.
"She also only had light, shadow, and a little bit of color.
"So, yeah. Monet feels like looking through my grandmother's eyes."

What happens when you post a real Monet and say it’s AI? The coolest art social experiment I’ve seen in a while. Thank you @SHL0MS

@gptbrooke One of the first games I ever played lasted a week, and by the end of the week players wouldn't pass the salt at dinner without re-opening discussions of Silesia
English

@hamiltonianurst yessss
hahahh my home rules when i ran diplomacy games earlier in my life were two ppl per team, and unlimited diplomacy time instead of fifteen minutes
the games were wild, lasted for months, and i think often just never finished lolol
English

@hamiltonianurst has a whole list in the vibecamp discord of things he would like to run if we weren't making him work so much
i'd play diplomacy if i could be on a team/leave if i needed to
