LLMs are highly non-deterministic, which presents a huge design challenge: we've never built non-deterministic software, it's always been based off of branching logic and restricted options (hence: the GUI)— Neal Khosla (@nealkhosla) February 25, 2023

This Guardian piece has brought up a key problem with nature-based carbon credits, but the issue is so complex that most people glaze over trying to understand it, so I’m going to give a highly simplified explanation of the core issue here.https://t.co/ZOkPMxvIMS— Yishan (@yishan) January 24, 2023

the thing lynch does better than anyone else in the history of cinema is play with gradients of reality, starting from an understanding that all film (like life itself) can be understood as dream, and so all film (like life itself) can feel real + unreal.

Companies find it incredibly hard to reliably staff positions with hard-working generalists who operate autonomously and have high risk tolerances. This is not the modal employee, including at places which are justifiably proud of the skill/diligence/etc of their employees.
Startups are (by necessity) filled with generalists; big companies are filled with specialists. People underestimate how effective a generalist can be at things which are done by specialists. People underestimate how deep specialties can run. These are simultaneously true.
The hardest problem in B2C is distribution. The hardest problem in B2B is sales.
Your idea is not valuable, at all. All value is in the execution.
nobody serious will engage in contract review over an idea, and this will mark you as clueless.

If you were “mature for their age” you might have been parentified. Parentification is when a child is made to fill an adult role. This is an “invisible” trauma that has life long impact. HERE’S WHY: 🧵— Dr. Nicole LePera (@Theholisticpsyc) October 16, 2022
Parentification is an extremely common family dynamic where children are expected to: manage their parents emotions or issues (most common is marital problems), take care of the home & siblings on a regular basis, or act as a peer to a parent.
Children adapt quickly to this role. They learn they must betray their own needs, desires, & emotions to keep the connection to a parent.
Many children feel a fierce sense of loyalty to the parent thats parentifying them.
They want to fix, rescue, & protect that parent. It’s a true role reversal.
