Remarkable thing about Paul Ehrlich is not just how wrong he was but that we was totally unphased and unchastened by his wrongness, just a total epistemic disaster zone — a pattern of conduct that is unfortunately shared by many prominent people from different schools of thought.

@davidsenra @pmarca What? That's not true. Do you not feel that Charles Darwin, for example, was among the great men of history?

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of

@paulg (I should’ve written “a text” rather than “anything.”)

@paulg I was thinking specifically about posts/essays — math is different.

I've started unfollowing/muting people who repeatedly share posts clearly written by LLMs. It's disrespectful. If someone doesn't have time to think through what they post, whatever they have to say isn't worth my attention.

@michael_nielsen Woolf’s “To the Lighthouse”

Who has written most compellingly (broadly and deeply) about the varieties of human experience? I'm struggling to articulate quite what I'm searching for here. I loved William James' book "The Varieties of Religious Experience", but it's quite descriptive, not quite internal enough I am, in part, talking about people who can capture many different types of interiority. Perhaps I should read Proust? The famous passage of the madeleine certainly captures something. But I suspect someone else has done this much better. Maybe Dostoevsky? I only read a little, and too young to really appreciate it; perhaps I would get more now Some very good fictional writers struggle with this. Cormac McCarthy is a wonderful writer, but every McCarthy character seems like a McCarthy character Answers to my question welcome, especially if you can articulate what they do well. And if you can deepen the sense of my question that'd be great, too
