And still.

Isn’t this a question of hubris? The title claims that “Rational People Do Worse”, but wouldn’t a rational person surmise that there is some information/mechanism they don’t have access to that the computer does in order to achieve the success rate claimed? In that case the rational choice would be to claim the single box.

The other factor not addressed is the $1k vs $1m. The calculus changes a lot based on these amounts. If it was 10 bucks vs the chance to win millions? that’s the lottery. if it were $10k it be a lot harder to walk away from that.

As a thought experiment, its a lot easier to say what you think the answer should be, actually making that choice when there is real money is psychologically different.

The fact that he tried to shoehorn in supply and demand just shows how this person is an actual conservative.

It really makes no sense especially in this era where we have fake descent on both sides generated by AI.

While I probably disagree with most of his politics, I appreciate the fact that he stands up and says Trump is a fucking crook.

I’m spoiled here in CA, we got some really legit spots. Did the birra craze hit the east coast too?

Heavens River has a Topopolis

try looking up “squirrel cage fan”

it sounds like I’m joking but it is really what they are called.

if you look to Chipotle for this “burrito culture” you talk of you are already lost.

I like an avocado sandwich with garlic salt. super tasty.

the whole idea of a coffee ‘break’ was created to pump stimulants into workers to improve productivity.

They are actively against SEL which is the stupidest thing I can imagine. The only thing I could imagine worse is feeding your kids lead paint chips.

Milk based plastic was one of the first man made plastics produced back in 1890. Not 1980, 1890.

Its important to note, that while the ISBN matches Brute Orbits by George Zebrowski the description doesnt. A truly deep mystery, its almost like someone created a fake image and posted it on the interweb for laughs.

I’m sorry, but it really bugs me that the small domino is a fucking war. While the big domino is depicted here as the AI bubble bursting.

At a minimum, it’s a * poor use of the meme *, but really the priorities are just way out of whack.

“More fundamentally, AI models may not understand ‘stakes’ as humans perceive them.”

lol, yathink?

Nice! Next lookup bloodninja if you havn’t seen it yet.

No but it was probably originally formatted in .rm real video format. Maybe quicktime.

Wouldn’t that end up with a big survivorship bias? The truly corrupt would have no retractions from authors or institutions and there are potential incentives for publishers to not retract.

PG&E SUCKS so fucking hard. They are responsible for over a hundred deaths and does anyone go to jail? No they increase rates, declare bankruptcy and pay bonuses to their execs.

She is Italian, right? Does that qualify as white? Depends who/when you ask.

Personally I’m all for erasing the white identity. Its a fucking lie. My grandparents and great grandparents etc were Norwegian, Italian, Scottish. They did not consider themselves white.

If one wants to make an argument about an American melting pot identity, blending these cultures together to something new, you are lying to yourself if you try to exclude the massive influence non-‘white’ cultures had and continue to have on that shared cultural identity.
