A couple of people have commented on this series of videos that they thought I was a metahuman? I guess because I do a smooth transition from thumbnail to video and that I have a high-quality camera. I can't figure out if this is bad or good though.

Venture capitalist and founder of Theory Ventures, previously a partner at Redpoint. Writes a near-daily blog on startups, SaaS metrics, data and AI.
AI consumption is not a smooth curve anyone can extrapolate : it arrives in three waves, each an order of magnitude larger than the last. The second one has already broken. The third is on the horizon. Related

RE: https://mastodon.social/@tristanbuckmaster/117233413705701198 A remarkable achievement: Alpöge and Buckmaster have managed to push one of the major promising approaches towards constructing blowup solutions to fluid equations --- as developed by Cordoba and Martınez-Zoroa --- to establish finite time blowup for many key fluid equations, including 3D incompressible Euler, with a smooth forcing term. (Previous work by these authors on similar equations could obtain a smooth forcing term for the IPM equation, and a subcritical but not smooth regularity for other equations.) The arguments hav… Related

I asked my mom for my grandma's cast iron if she wasn't going to use it. 100+ years old, smooth inside, but unfortunately it's a little warped and doesn't work great on our electric stove. But this is me about to unwrap it, and I'm glad I have it now :). Related

Their words
How can you make learning kind of uncomfortable, but that you'll remember things better? And it goes against a lot of our intuitions. A lot of teachers will want to say, how can we make learning easier? And I think that's probably the first problem is you don't want it to be easy.

Swedish essayist who writes Escaping Flatland, a newsletter of essays on relationships, thinking, writing and homeschooling.
When my Substack had sub-100 subscribers, I would contact nearly everyone who commented (on internet forums where I cross posted my essays). Most people are up for a conversation if they think you wrote a decent post, but it usually doesn’t happen if you’re not the one asking for it. I met some truly extraordinary people that way, and grew so much from our conversations. I think it is a very underrated way to use the internet. Related

Pseudonymous essayist. Writes at gwern.net on AI scaling, statistics, genetics and long-running internet research, with heavy citation and a habit of revising old essays in place rather than leaving them wrong.
Their words
The prose is so smooth that like Gene Wolfe’s, it becomes invisible, and you pass through it to the slow silent sorrow of the protagonist.

The Vanmoof is much smarter — the brain and software within it are refined, the app good, the acceleration curves smooth — but the bike is all custom components, and they aren't the highest quality at that.

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.
