Don't you see? He encoded the driving force of his motivation.


This is so applicable for "cat ears" wearables.

I wonder, do these signals also encode the ear direction, like eyeball muscles get.


Certainly, a great idea for hooking up with people for a task! ^__^

The system is written with FastAPI + NextJS, and hosted on MS Azure.


Yeah, looking back, that's how I made friends most of the time — like classmates or colleagues. It's much easier to build trust when you've had real, meaningful, or intellectual interactions with someone who initially starts off as a stranger.


And these days, with all the social networks, how is it that there wasn't a specialized space for getting to know people through co-working on something. It's either classroom or workplace, which had monopolized the most interesting thing about making relationships -- doing something exciting and potentially useful together!


Exactly, that's how MagicYou.Me was born. You know, with all the social apps out there, searches for keywords like 'making friends' and 'feeling lonely' have spiked dramatically in google! We're aiming to solve this problem. Social support is key to both success and overall health.


Whoever said there "internet," they fail to grasp how big the internet really is.


Is Intel poaching TSMC senior engineers in Arizona ( https://tinyurl.com/duvfkrm2 ) related? Cause, I would be really pissed off, if I we'd agreed to build a factory in foreign land out of desire to build good long-term relationships, and then, that country's strategically important corporation would decide take away our key engineers.

What's normalized in context of free opportunistic market can be seen as treacherous in context of politics and in the behaviors of strategically important enterprises of countries.


Then a hard drive without processing is very creative? False.


You get what you train for. Useless AIs are misaligned AIs.

Divest from misaligned AIs: 1) Avoid using them. 2) Invest into aligned AIs.


So, CEOs are thieves of the letter "E" from employees, if they delegate so much that the employees cannot meaningfully participate in the higher strategic decisions together?

Task delegation can be cooperative or abusive, as the article points out. It might be called theft if there is something owed and taken away from, but for that, it has to be that participation in executive decision was a right of employee or contractor to begin with (for that, they have to investigate under what agreement they work, what type of organization and expectations were set). Some contractors are happy to deliver a part or component to specifications, get paid and not participate in strategic decision making, others want to be part of the mission, and decide higher level goals together. It depends on the type of social contracts we enter into!

Btw., the "Executive Function Theft" as defined in the article, is an important social issue in the area of abuse of power, but reading plainly, it can be confused with good illegal leadership takeover without abuse of power, and with positive social outcomes.


Normalizing Unix seconds by the number of seconds in a day, results in Unix day, which has convenient properties, such as 5th digit after decimal point corresponding to decimal second (0.864 length of traditional second).

So, dividing UNIX_SECOND by 86400, we get a decimal Unix day.

For example, if UNIX_SECOND = 1688897360, then UNIX DAY = 19547.42315, Displaying this number with time formatting, makes it extremely easy for our time-trained eyes to interpret:

19,547 4:23:15, meaning:

19th Unix decimal year

547th day of the year (5-dmonth, 4-dweek, 7-dweekday)

4:23:15 decimal time (4-dhour, 23-dminute, 15-dsecond)


> How about: a shorter second. 100,000 seconds in a 'day'. 1M seconds in a 'week'. and so on.

Yes, that's exactly what you get when dividing Unix secs by 86400 you get 100,000-second-long days, useful on Earth, for now. :)

What would be a non-celestial day?


A day? Nothing. It doesn't exist. A hundred thousand seconds perhaps would be a useful measure; perhaps not.
