The option arbitrage stuff via yesterday's poll, @DeepDishEnjoyer dividend, and the silver early exercise post has spawned a bunch of chats on TL & DMs. Seems to be a lot of people screwing with options but missing fundamental education. Another first-principles type example: Related

shout-out to indie wine club in tooting market which is where we're going to do all our AI hardware chats from here on out Quoting @danielfogg The problem with a device that can do anything is that you have to imagine what to ask it to do. Physical form changes that. A clock, lamp, or calendar gives you a way in. It constrains an agent just enough to make its possibilities easier to imagine. We don’t know yet what the right forms for agen… Related

in case you’re not living in the tech bubble, as a general rule i’ve been surprised by how infrequently top tier folks actually meet/know each other. as an outsider i might have assumed that everyone is in secret illuminati group chats. those exist, but are very much short lived exceptions rather than the rule. what you see of the major headlines is pretty much what they also see. i guess one way to interpret this is also simply that most effort is still on doing the work rather than working the narrative or the gossip. and that, to me at least, is genuinely quite reassuring, this far in to m… Quoting @TechEmails Anthropic cofounder emails Noam Shazeer November 21, 2021 Related

NecronomiCon now labels itself as “The International Conference and Festival of Weird Fiction, Art, and Academia”, no longer a Lovecraft con specifically. And that is fair; the next panel I’m going to is “weird Appalachiana.” But Lovecraft sure does seem to be still the anchor and common thread. Related

I am not running for re-election as a Justice of the Peace in November (14 years is enough) and I'm mostly fine with it but will miss getting to run the tabulator for elections. Today was one of those nice primaries where the people I campaigned for, gave advice to, and talked to today, all won (N=3) and the less-evil sheriff candidate handily won. I got to work the polls with my friends and see my neighbors. I'm not a big voting personal generally, but I like small town elections #vermont Related

Just noticed a vibe-coded project of mine cost $200/month to serve a few dozen users/day 😭 Turns out it was doing 10s of millions of unnecessary Redis polls/day, even when idle - telemetry alone cost $$ a possible clue for why infra providers are growing so much right now Related

One of the most common naming issues I tend to see are generic placeholder names like Utils, Misc, or Helper. Names aren’t just passive labels. Names influence future behavior and perspective. A vague and imprecise name — like Utils — will attract code of those same qualities. Related

Americana traces the history of American-style Capitalism, reminding us the political economy is far more complex than the simple labels we tend to use. Reality is far messier, filled with externalities, complications and comprises then is predicted by academic theories.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
