The uncanny valley is far deeper than most people realize.

@tbpn @MarcusMilione He looks like dazed and confused era Matthew McConaughey

Minted New York is one of the fastest-growing sneaker and athleticwear brands on the internet. Founder @MarcusMilione was on the show today. His recent sneaker collab with Saucony sold out in just 5 minutes. To fight against bots, Marcus created fake product listings that made sneaker bots try to buy shoes weighing 10,000 pounds, breaking checkout for the bots while real customers got through. Here's the full interview: – Marcus' content strategy early in his career – How Minted New York hit its quit-your-job revenue goal in five minutes on a drop – Betting the farm on every sneaker drop – The first major Christmas release made Minted feel like a real business – Minted x Saucony partnership – Staying bootstrapped in year five and building Minted slowly on a strong foundation – Minted is 99.5% organic and does very little advertising – How Marcus beat sneaker bots for Minted's recent drop

@tunguz Doubtful. Math is one of the few areas you can make progress in just by thinking really hard about something. Other fields involve collecting real world data.

As goes maths, so goes the rest of the thinkaverse.

@fieldcmdr @ParadoxPopper Exactly. In Iceland (a real high trust society) you can camp on random peoples lawns.

@ParadoxPopper That's the definition of a low trust society. Members of high trust societies don't draw guns on members of their community for being on their land as a precaution. That is the complete opposite of high trust.

Never forget this gem. Extremely unserious people.

@eternalvoyage77 @escapefrommelos @FrenlyOfficer always has been

@escapefrommelos @FrenlyOfficer Wait, it’s all jeets?

going to say something a little controversial here

@ParadoxPopper @fieldcmdr Some of the highest trust societies are the Scandinavian countries. They are not libertarian at all.

@fieldcmdr Most rural communities.

Aw HELL naw LMFAO

@okayoklou Vancouver is not real Canada

The ppl that made the stereotype that Canadians are nice CLEARLY have never been to Vancouver

@SaladBarFan @Ov__De yea but that's cause most AI engineers are gay nerds.

@Ov__De Russian ditch diggers have a better shot at marrying a beautiful woman than AI engineers making $1m a year in the Bay Area

“Adjusted for PPP (Pussy Power Parity) American men are the poorest demographic in the world.”

@nogginnoticer @AFCryptid

@AFCryptid the fact he's a literal canadian in canada makes it that much weirder

Honestly the more I see of Captive Dreamer the more I pity him because he's visibly/audibly mentally stunted

@LordIxabert Are you retarded? The Scots are Presbyterians. The Anglicans are English. Its literally in the name.

What a pattern! Scotsmen everwhere! In books, in brains, in brilliance! Anglicans, perched smugly at the top of the IQ charts! And the English upper classes, together with their transatlantic "WASP" counterparts, ruling the entire world!

@schizoretard18 why are they lowkey good at shuffling lol

They could have hired Sam Hyde to do their media and it would have been less absurd

@TradMaldOwl @zagrebbi nah just 90 IQ

@zagrebbi That poster appears schizophrenic at best

Some cutting edge stuff on right wing twitter these days

@christoaivalis @MattZeitlin sounds based

@MattZeitlin Also, Ron Paul had taken some pretty openly white supremacist positions, and was anti-abortion He was never a libertarian in the common understanding. He was a market fundamentalist extremist.

Most important quote about politics in the last 15 years

@bronzeagemantis I agree that Nikita enjoys playing god. But comparing the amount of censorship now to pre-2022 is laughable. Pre-2022 twitter you could get banned for almost anything.

All Nikita does is roam X all day and play god curating the site as per his political and social preferences, narrowing the discourse to pro and con Hillel Center/church youth outreach analogues. The censorship and distortion at least matches pre-2022 Twitter

At moment X is not a free speech site. I don’t think Elon is aware: I think he outsourced it to bad people like Nikita Bier who are betraying the free speech mission. I’ll try show briefly in thread that content bannings and suppression on here is very severe @elonmusk

@splendiforous69 @bronzeagemantis Sneako is super anti isreal tho?

@bronzeagemantis What did you expect from someone named “Nikita bier”. Even his profile picture appears to be the most slobby looking Dave Portney esque Jew. Who is shocked he promoted people like Sneako

@Scumfukkk87 @escapefrommelos Its not the corps you retard. The government literally printed 6.5 trillion dollars during covid.

Boomer Financial Gurus always ask “why are Zillennials paying $20+ for lunch” and not “why are BowlSlop companies charging $20+”

@escapefrommelos Man you are a dumbass. They charge 20$ for bowlslop because people are willing to pay 20$ for bowlslop. Do you understand how capitalism works at all?

AHHHH THE MARKET SCARES ME I'VE GOT PAPER HANDS I'M GONNA SELL I'M GAY AHHHH

@DanteNotAlmeida @FeralPHunter you sound gay

@FeralPHunter I am really built different because it's her back and shoulders that had stunned in place.

CHH really pawgmogged the TL

@whomst69 @yyhh6tgg63536 @ohryansbelt @karpathy This guy gets it

@yyhh6tgg63536 @ohryansbelt @karpathy The Warriors lost the 2016 finals

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
