I'll try to get my friend to come 😁
Can I subscribe to your newsletter?
This isn't anything fundamentally new, is it? You could have the same discussion in the past about say, books. Goods and services that exist only in the realm of ideas have been around for ages.
I was in California for a wedding, but give everyone my regards. See you next time!
Could I have the photos?
Nice to meet you!
One of the highest rated photos in the Optimized Dating discord server is a guy posing with his cats.
Couldn't they just tax bitcoin mining and come out ahead overall?
I don't see how this can't reasonably be called procrastination.
Thanks!
Link to the recording?
Parents think it's not okay to roll a toy down the slide, seriously?
Regardless of the cause, there's something to be said for being so dedicated.
Seems impractical if your income is a salary, which is quite common. But anyway thanks for posting this, it's very interesting. It's cool that there's a whole well documented community devoted to the workings of tax collection from an adversarial perspective.
High income rats are presumably disproportiatly likely to want a passport.
Don't be so influenced by what Netflix deems suitable to show you.
Worrying about extinction is one thing, and we're nowhere near that point, but does the pro fertility case rely on the philosophical assumption that more people is better? Surely you can see how some people might not find that very compelling.
I think plenty of guys would be willing to settle for less than perfect.
Could this work with email? Some emails are productive, and some are procrastination.
I share your frustration. I made ONE downvoted comment and then was restricted for quite some time.
By the way, did you ever find out more about this?
Just wanted to register my complaint that I find it somewhat annoying to be rate limited, and somewhat surprising this wasn't targeted more specifically at new users, which was the impression I got from earlier posts. Also I would have commented earlier, but each time I thought to do it was when I was rate limited, lol.
You can get long term leverage buying deep in the money calls and rolling them.
Hey, is this still happening?
Related, but, I've talked with multiple rats who, after some convincing, basically admitted, "Yeah, assuming it would actually work, I suppose I actually would push the nuclear button, but I would never admit it, because saying so would have various negative effects."
I also oppose the prior against financial advice, especially crypto, considering Bitcoin is one of the ways "rationalists should win".

"An underappreciated element is that dishwaters calibrate how much cleaning they do based on the amount of dirt on the dishes."
Interesting. How?
Kinda amazing that the dishwasher cleans the baked on cheese effectively.
When I canvassed for a political campaign, it was one of the most fun jobs ever because we all lived and partied together.
The stock market has never declined over a 20 year period, but it has declined over 10 year periods, so if you're particularly risk averse, that could be quite the difference.
Do you have a source for the misconception being common?
The reactionaries might say that the decline of fighting is indicative of the downfall of the masculine western man.
Did you ever find an answer to this?
>standardization and interoperability (e.g. email, the Web
Unfortunately, we're seeing some unwinding of this, as the dominance of gmail makes it impractical to self host (because they refuse to deliver your mail), and with the rise of apps rather than web pages.
Was it worth it?
These posts are so very wholesome and I enjoy them thoroughly.
The markets are in moderately fake money, but Manifold dollars do represent charitable contributions
They can also be redeemed for high quality shirts!
Also some users are willing to trade real money for Manifold money.
Backup citizenship! There were some posts about it here I think.
Plenty more examples. Toiletries for an overnight bag, for one.
It makes sense that Ukrainian bond yields went up after the invasion, but why did they go up and down more recently?
I joined the Optimized Dating discord server and got better photos.
Hm, okay, let me just stand here and carefully research the legal technicalities of the definition of medical care while you're rapidly engulfed in flames.
The most important thing I learned is that if you find yourself in an emergency situation, it is better to do almost anything rather than nothing. Again, if someone stops breathing for any reason, they have only minutes to live. They are dead by default, unless someone intervenes. There is very little you can do to them that is worse than cutting off their oxygen.
In fact, it is probably better to attempt CPR or the Heimlich maneuver than to do nothing, even if you have never been trained and are only guessing, or mimicking what you have seen on television.
Unfortunately the legal system doesn't reflect this.
Does anyone have a link to the LessWrong slack?
How can you tell he's sad?
Typically board members are elected by shareholders, and an attacker can win a proxy fight with a relatively small portion of the shares if he can convince other shareholders.
Aren't CEOs mostly Republicans? And what's stopping the shareholders from insisting on prioritizing profit?
This wasn't a super popular post or anything, but it stuck out in my memory for some reason. I think it gets at something fundamental and meaningful, but hard to describe. I found myself returning to this recently, after noticing myself matching with nerdy girls even though no aspect of my profile or swiping would so filter.
Cool cake demonstration. I think I would vote for pushing the button. Eating cake is fun, but destroying cake is also fun while being much healthier. I suppose if we're doing the whole democracy thing, we could even let the no voters eat some before we destroy it.
ARMs make sense in theory, but I've heard that in practice the embedded interest rate option tends to be underpriced because homeowners don't always exercise when it would benefit them.
