    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 15 Remarkable: a 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 minivan contains more concentrated speed than a medieval peasant would see in their entire lifetime! (AFAICT, nonfatal human velocity for medievals tops out at ~75mph: that's the final velocity of Laso Schaller's 2015 cliff dive record from 192ft.)

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 15 (Thoroughbred horses top out at 44mph; humans 26mph (briefly); sailing ships like clippers at 20mph; earliest skiing speed records from ~1930 are ~87mph (!) but I think I can safely assume medieval skis & wild slopes were at least 12mph slower; gliders, planes, unavailable.)

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Oct 3 I know I'm very comforted when I see only 2 researchers on every paper, with no recent papers, one of which owns a company selling virus tests, and a monocasual explanation wildly at odds with minor things like obesity GWASes, w/differences like '50 pounds' vs '3 pounds'...

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Oct 5 "Root-cause analysis results: powerstrip had exposed power switch; no UPS was available to take over in any power failure; inadequate persistence to disk of files. Recommended remediations: powerstrip with cover; install UPS; decrease editor timeout; schedule orphanage visit."

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 18 "Computing is a pop culture." as Alan Kay puts it. Vertical is superior for most serious work, but landscape is better for watching video and passive consumption, and became default, so every generation has to rediscover that those mounting brackets & non-defaults are worth it...

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 23 One implication here is that covid's extreme bias towards killing the elderly is going to have relatively minor effects on culture/science/tech: it's killing people whose careers are generally long over. Not taking out 20yo Youtubers and the like, like a Spanish Flu did.

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 23 SHE: "Oh god, he's probably texting 𝘩𝘦𝘳 again!" HE: "My god, I had no idea those ruts through the quad we walk in were called 'desire paths' all along!"

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Oct 7 They don't cover the genetic correlates, which is an odd omission. Looking through at income, Townsend etc, it looks like wearing-glasses does rg heavily with all sorts of SES advantage... Another case of mixed correlates, like EDU and mental illness?

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 23 Given how infant mortality works a lot of the time (random adventitious infections), it's not like you could ever know much better than base rates if you'd survive. Sure, if you had some previously-fatal disease, you know you'd be dead, but even healthiest babies could just die.

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 23 I have actually been pleasantly surprised how easy it has been to recruit labelers for hobbyist stuff, if you provide a sane interface. These days, the bottleneck tends to be coding & debugging the models and then compute.

    • 𝔊𝔴𝔢𝔯𝔫 @gwern Sep 23 Ah, finally! I've had 'Remixer: A Mixer-Transformer Architecture with Compositional Remixing for Natural Language Understanding' in my notes for ages but the paper never came out and I'd begun to wonder what happened.
