  3. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@alexandr_wang @garrytan do you see this ability as a methodology or an intuitive skill learned only by practice?

  7. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@allgarbled @13_thirteenn can't do frog it's been done!
  8. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@sidewayskoyote @Navier_Tokes @futurecarcass I'm curious what diet you advocate for + how that maps to land use & ag practices to feed 8 billion ppl sustainably (ie managed fisheries & bag limits at levels where populations wouldn't crash)
  9. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@sidewayskoyote @Navier_Tokes @futurecarcass do you have links to back that up?
  10. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@sidewayskoyote @Navier_Tokes @futurecarcass birds as well but the picture doesn't change that much- ag is getting far more meat per acre than if we just hunted wild populations at a sustainable rate
  11. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · postwhat color is my aura to you?
  12. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@uberstuber sure

  16. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@Navier_Tokes @futurecarcass sure for a particular individual- but my point is that overall there are not enough deer and rabbits for all humans to hunt them sustainably
  17. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@izzyz got this on my first prompt... lol "like mixing water with wine" https://t.co/SrwLnmpvWm
  18. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@futurecarcass what depends?
  19. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · quote@Navier_Tokes hehe, that's ALSO a big land use issue at least locally here in us-east-1 ... power is the biggest constraint- we need modern nuclear to run the servers https://x.com/mimi10v3/status/1692769394915409979
  20. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · postonly 4% of mammal biomass is not livestock or humans... anyone who says we should be living as hunter-gatherers is suggesting a much smaller human population and/or a heavily plant-based diet https://t.co/lNL4lFExFK
  21. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@Aella_Girl @BecomingCritter and because of the nonconsent / aggro stuff I feel like it's important to be clear about my preference NOT to have any of that done to me, so no one tries it on me thinking it'll go over well
  22. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@Aella_Girl @BecomingCritter 👍 I don't mean it as a value judgement... I like affectionate sex where the guy is very responsive to my preferences- like, more than average- which is quite different than what you've described- so I dislike guys sending me your tweets / referring to them as a way of flirting
  23. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@AdamNeumannsCoS 🤔 my theory on this is that we should be eating seasonally- very limited repeated foods for a few weeks at a time but rotating through different foods over the course of the year
  24. Aug 20, 2023Twitter · reply@Lithros i try!!! but it's tricky to not swing too far the other way, and then crash again...
  25. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@eigenrobot @sgodofsk aw and here I was imagining you cracking the whip on pasty bugmen in the quarries for your pyramid
  26. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · replyit would be nice to feel like a reliable person who follows through again; I used to just put things on my to do list and they'd just happen; used to plan gym workouts and trust myself to just automatically do what I planned
  27. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@IvyAstrix meaningfully changed in what sense?
  28. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · replyI've still not quite regained my previous organization & advance planning & productivity... not sure how to flip the switch back again
  29. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · postin the early days of the covid lockdowns I surrendered to the chaos, stopped planning ahead because everything was too unpredictable, wasn't worth it...
  30. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@bamboo_master_m definitely!
  31. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat and even worse some of them stop believing anything at all!

  34. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat you really should upgrade to a_musinggoat
  35. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat lol it bothers me that idk who your alts are tho you feel familiar and like my fren
  36. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · quoteunpredictable yes, autistic no- ceos are good at reading the room, but not oversensitive too the reactions https://x.com/compuficial/status/1693010504367632777
  37. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@KojimaErgoSum definitely not! we all need a private botswarm protecting us when we go out
  38. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@Roko__eth too many redpill followers trained to denigrate women because they believe women have too much self esteem
  39. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@TACIXAT @a_musingcat lol I don't think we have anything under $2K/mo anymore in my town... which is more than my 15 yr mortgage payment
  40. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@lisatomic5 tbf non-stem ppl can have difficulty w recursion... tpot = this part of tpot
  41. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat should've bought a few years ago
  42. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@TACIXAT @a_musingcat zoning is annoying but I understand why it exists... rising rent & land prices is a good thing tho???
  43. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@HephaistosF being blockable > being blocked
  44. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat 🤔 what is the "crisis"?
  45. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@Roko__eth 🤨 doubt
  46. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@neqyve @a_musingcat yeah I can see it tbh
  47. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@orisecinc @nickcammarata @VividVoid_ hmm... I looked into the jhana thing a bit and felt like "this is familiar but also not a route I wanna go down" ... and assumed I've misunderstood something lost in translation, but perhaps not 🤔
  48. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · postimo to a first decree approximation, "no one ever lies" is true.
  49. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat what "crisis", cat?
  50. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat lol the only one you're definitely not is dumbass
  51. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@nickcammarata @VividVoid_ how is this experience different than a manic episode?
  52. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · postis the idea that subscriptions replace Circles? rather than choosing your audience they choose to pay for access?
  53. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ColemanRidge @meteor_cultist lol no I do have bipolar, just not BPD
  54. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ColemanRidge lol I do not have BPD!
  55. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ColemanRidge yeah sigh, I don't take mood stabilizers / antipsychotics because I feel their risk profile is significantly worse... would prefer to not need them
  56. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ArchLeucoryx ohhh so you're on the opposite side from the ppl saying there's not enough spirited intellectual debate because of politeness norms?
  57. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@YeshuaisSavior hugs, whisperer...
  58. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ColemanRidge lol I'm old, I've been drinking about this much for like 15 years? maybe a bit more when I was in my early 20s. and it wasn't that I was craving alcohol recently when I stopped for dieting, it was that I had a psychiatric episode
  59. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ArchLeucoryx interesting- what in particular needs enforcing?
  60. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat too pure for this app fr
  61. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@Cererean @chrisgardenuk @robinhanson lol my genes are adequately represented through big religious / trailer park families
  62. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@fun_vampire0 @VincentXVespa I find this so hard to believe- my sisters kids have been unschooled and still taught themselves to read because they were curious to know what was in the books
  63. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@IvyAstrix @max_paperclips I'm just wondering what IS the experience that ppl are saying is being painted over...
  64. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@IvyAstrix @max_paperclips do you have any favorite old threads as examples?
  65. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@max_paperclips @IvyAstrix truth seeking isn't quite the same as flame wars either... reddit has too many aggro morons upvoting each other's dunks even when they're not accurate
  66. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@dooyoocanoodle @BasedBeffJezos @Plinz @tszzl the problem is the regulations they want to impose *globally* ... extremism is logical if you accept the premise that there's a high probability of AI causing human extinction in the near term, so we have to push back against the mistaken beliefs
  67. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@Ryan_Gasoline I was never in favor of the idea, but tbf the edit UX kinda sucks... but I understand why, given the potential mayhem if ppl edit maliciously
  68. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@visakanv @algekalipso as someone who's not, but is vulnerable to emotional contagion, this is a very frustrating truth.
  69. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat lol, musing...
  70. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ValkrenF @a_real_society 🤣 ok tbh I did get a cs masters but just because I was procrastinating abt getting a job before I turned 21 and I had a scholarship (I don't recommend masters! we don't hire for them!)
  71. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@BionicAnomaly @VincentXVespa 🤔 the large skills gap is in STEM jobs and has been for quite awhile... critical thinking is useful!
  72. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@IvyAstrix probably both? but some ppl have been criticizing tpot in particular as having conflict avoidant norms and too many ppl who just wanna ~vibe~
  73. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_real_society lol me too but I think this is actually common in tpot?
  74. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@VincentXVespa I feel like education should be more about facilitating kids innate curiosity rather than insisting they all go through the same curriculum at the same age
  75. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · postwhat sort of intellectual discourse is everyone expecting & disappointed to not find in tpot? I'm too uneducated to even guess what this could mean
  76. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@PrinceVogel @rageflowerrr lol I'm just so worried about not always getting notifications for replies, would be sad if I miss it...
  77. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@growing_daniel idk why I somehow assumed you're there with Marie the toothpaste girl
  78. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@HephaistosF why is it so personal? I'd kinda like to read the best of the best even tho I'm not included in it
  79. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@HephaistosF I'm not gonna rate ppl on a 1 to 10 scale! that is a quick path to twitter hell and I'm neither nice enough to give everyone a 10 nor disagreeable enough to give ppl low scores and ignore their squawks of outrage
  80. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@GarrettPetersen @QuetzalThoughts @BecomingCritter opportunity cost tho smdh
  81. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · posthmmm gonna add "egg" to my muted words, for several reasons
  82. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@StevieKomputer lol! they were considering it for a new FBI campus... but probably the AIs need it more than we do
  83. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@10x_er aww.. at least you know he was seeing your tweets before the unfollow!!! I assume he never sees mine at all, given the # of ppl he follows
  84. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ValkrenF @a_musingcat presumably there are other confounding factors in these statistics.... otoh who am I to judge, I've gone off the stats on women's happiness & income to decide that marriage is not for me
  85. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@prerationalist curiosity ftw!!!
  86. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@windingPattern hah I have reasons to think he might not remove it... but he could make it less fun by not allowing locked accounts to quote or reply to ppl who don't follow them?
  87. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@StevieKomputer lol block is so broken- bowser has me blocked but ppl keep sharing his stuff and I can see it when shared
  88. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@ValkrenF @a_musingcat in what way does it matter?
  89. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · quoteAnyone who wants to follow more women should do it now before they lock 😜 https://x.com/chopstickfury01/status/1692843324044869673
  90. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@chopstickfury01 lol lucky you're already in if that happens...
  91. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@SarahAMcManus @PrinceVogel @misen__ @frideswyth I don't usually get sleepy from the drinks directly no; idk if there's something more subtle going on w sleep because yes when I have episodes I also can't sleep and don't feel hungry
  92. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@chopstickfury01 idk it might go tho other way if everyone reports the ppl on their block lists for the antisocial behavior that landed them there - removing them from the platform is better than each person individually having to experience harassment and then block
  93. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@DKThomp he's speaking a shibboleth that's been around since the Ron Paul days and before... in a way I take his candidacy more seriously because of how unserious these words are- he's running for votes not just an issue
  94. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@Pathless110 oo that sounds promising!
  95. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@robinhanson ppl previously projected population explosion by extrapolating then-current trend into uncapped exponential growth... projecting the recent trend continue to extinction is equally naive.
  96. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@rageflowerrr I've read some unconvincing but widely accepted "kindling theory" that the more episodes you have the more severe and hard to treat they become... also that they're maybe associated w dementia or Parkinson's later in life?
  97. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@tunguz consultants are expected to look with fresh eyes and consider possibilities that have been ruled out by groupthink- first principles thinking helps with this. performance problems can also use first principles thinking to see alternative ways to accomplish the same goal
  98. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat also indicative of low iq and small dick
  99. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@quantumVerd @TurnerNovak @johncoogan unless Amazon is undercutting you w a free banana stand next door
  100. Aug 19, 2023Twitter · reply@BecomingCritter 😒 the "so what" is that ppl think we're more similar than we are, when we have very opposite sexual preferences and I dislike feeling pressured to be into kink stuff when I'm not
