I found this interesting to think about as I'm thinking a lot about the mind, consciousness, intelligence, etc lately. Mostly related to ADHD, autism, dementia, my ability to remember things, faces, names, people, etc but also LLMs, etc.

I don't really have anything to contribute, it felt more like another piece to add to the very large, barely started and unorganized puzzle I have in my mind vaguely about the mind.

> If those who correct can’t or won’t explain why one is correct over the other, then it simply isn’t.

I will try to remember this and also execute it with kindness and trivia, like you suggest, in the future.

Thank you.

Thanks, I really never knew!

What did you think it meant?

Strålande! Well done :)

"Fitta" is sort of like "cunt" in Swedish & .se is the TLD of Sweden.

Actual intelligence might be[0] to know what typos (of any kind) are fun to riff off.

Maybe this didn't hit the mark for you, but it got a chuckle out of me (especially considering the last hype before AI was crypto).

[0] I don't even try to figure that out anymore, in a few years I'll pick the definition that I think best captures my thoughts

Hopefully there will be some artifacts from this that will be available to the greater public.

It does sound very interesting and right up my alley.

I also don't seem to be able to use internet search anymore (probably a user error) so if anyone has a link to a document, soundfile or video of Agnes Callard explaining the concept without the interuptions from a interviewer that is more interested in contributing than to let her explain the concept I would very much appreciate it.

Then it was to protect our modems bandwidth (cost and time) while now it's more about protecting our own cognitive bandwidth.

How learning and doing aren't exactly the same and that you need to get back to it many times rather than doing a lot at once.

It's ofc nothing new and the same principle as for example spaced repetition.

Thank you for posting <3

Like, in a just having a life kind of way.

But what do I know?

They mostly do not.

They only demand that you offer the source code to anyone that asks for it if you also distribute any kind of executable (you may even charge to cover the costs of the distribution).

The AGPL expands this to SaaS's too to close that loophole.

Very weird world we live in!

Even though I don't doubt your claim that some particles travel easier at higher degrees I suspect the difference is too small to notice before the rise in temperature becomes distracting to _me_.

I think almost everything tastes better at room-ish temperature.

(Some things need to be colder or hotter to keep their texture, but I can't think of anything that _tastes_ better outside of the 16~25°C range)

Like what does "work" constitute?

Economies can exist in many different ways. At its core it is just a way to describe how we move resources between ourselves and that can be done in many, many ways.
