If ur research is public & free anyone could argue with u or crit u & write about it (in theory) on their Substack. A much more impressive feat than a small num of academics who likely share ur biases & have maybe argued w u privately but would never publicly bc it would lower ur reputation a bit.

the correct answer is N*d^2-d(d+1)/2

Given positive integers d and N with N≥d, consider the algebraic set S of tuples of real matrices A_1,...,A_N of size d*d whose product A_1*...*A_N is 0. What is the dimension of S?

eg I've heard really good things about Little Women, but haven't watched it yet.

I think this may just be an effect of your audience itself being mostly male, so the movies they get most immersed into are male movies, and if you asked a bunch of girls they'd say more feminine-coded movies.

The Big Short

questions around the physics of those things are important for determining this, but I'm imagining something much more Age of Em like than Eternity in Six Hours like

The economics of the things which are left scarce. Feasibly those things will be energy, compute, social prestige, physical distance, information/entropy, and what others do with their (de facto) property (eg in our world that could be reprinting copyrighted books, or 3d printing weapons).

It can be difficult to come up with resolution criteria & give enough context to traders. Nevermind the stress of a resolution when potentially >$100k is on the line!

Whats an example? Usually someone bringing up neuroscience decreases credibility in their claims for me—usually!

Very interesting that it basically hasn't changed other than equality zeroing out, and care getting dramatically lower.

I think this matches my intuition for how my morals have changed over time too.

Sounds fun to me!

I should be added
