@Jack_DrinksJack @mattwritesbooks @mattwritesbooks Matt did you get that thing I sent to the greenroom?
Killer show

@isaacmorehouse That already happened: the dark web.
Then moreso w Web 2.0: walled gardens.
“Localized and partitioned intranets” are already taking over: people are preferring group texts, discord servers, etc. to what’s left of the open web.
English
Prediction: the global internet will become too dangerous to be connected to and most people will only jump on every so often briefly and cautiously for specific things.
Instead, various localized and partitioned intranets will emerge as the main form of digital engagement.

Has anyone created an accurate ChatGPT/AI model of a historical figure?

@marknorm It is if you’re an alcoholic.
Congrats! Do again tomorrow!

@james_deas @grumpyesq Genetic correlation is different than a normal correlation: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_c…
English
Genes associated with sexuality & reproduction also impact a range of other traits. These outcomes are particularly interesting for genetics because they show a snapshot of natural selection 🧬

@dr_appie @grumpyesq I think my confusion comes from the word choice “genetically correlated”, as if that’s a statistical function.
The fact is they are correlated. The “genetically” component isn’t expressed in this chart.
Right?
English
@james_deas @grumpyesq That is also true, I think he was asking about the direction of the correlation
English
@dr_appie @grumpyesq I thought blue (more complete circle) is just showing they are correlated genetically.

@Breanna_Pacheco @JoopsMiranda @hubermanlab Is your room warm? Get it down to 68f or lower.
Are you going to bed w stress from the day or anxiety about tomorrow? Maybe more of a “shut down” routine after work (see cal newport) or a “wind down” routine in the hour before bed

Low solar angle sunlight (around sunrise and sunset- and NOT just when the sun is at the horizon), is the optimal stimulus for setting your circadian clock for daytime wakefulness, night time sleep, mood & health. Blue-yellow contrast is the key. Even w/cloud cover it’s there.

@flowidealism The same analogy for other disorders works, and is just as unhelpful. Does my forgetful baby have Alzheimer’s?
You wouldn’t roll your eyes at a parent treating their child’s diabetes. Claims about a disorder’s prevalence from one not familiar w the medical science = noise

Someone once noted that the symptoms of ADD are similar to the symptoms of childhood. We pathologies (and “medicate”) so many children unnecessarily.

It’s normal for kids — especially small boys — to be restless, rambunctious, and loth to sit still. It’s a sign of *health* to be full of energy. They don’t need to be put on drugs to fit a boring education system. The system needs to change to fit them.

There is a growing awareness that the mental health problems of Gen Z were caused by 2 interacting factors: loss of childhood independence, and getting on social media in middle school. Here's a summary of the independence thread. Please visit and support letgrow.org
Holly Korbey@HKorbey
New from me: Researchers are beginning to ask if a lack of childhood independence plays a role in the mental health crisis. "Today’s 18-year-olds are like 12-year-olds from a decade ago. They have very little tolerance for conflict and discomfort." kqed.org/mindshift/6062…

@isaacmorehouse GPT on what signals will continue to be hard to “fake”
..though I think it’s wrong/lying.
- It does have access to internet
- it could be far more creative than humans (see stablediffusion)
- “emotional intelligence”, I think the bar is pretty low, i’ll take what i can get!

@noxlucens @Carnage4Life Kind of a relief! Nagarjuna = the ultimate conversation stopper 😅

@noxlucens @Carnage4Life We've been at it for 45 mins... To it's credit, the responses have been consistent. Buddha 👍, Nagarjuna 👎

@noxlucens @Carnage4Life Can't tell if I'm "not getting anywhere" or if giving non-answers is how GPT admits defeat 🤔

@noxlucens @Carnage4Life Hmm... I think we're talking about different kinds of "existence" here.
