Oh wow… it mostly means that I have a small kid that kept me awake most of the night! Edited

The metaphor of the open seminar is misleading. In an open seminar, the presenter stake a claim to the work, even if incomplete. In this case, the work was in private repositories. A more precise methodology would be the AI overhearing the authors discussing in their office and using that as base for a proof. This is even sneakier because there has been no public claim of the method or results by the authors.

I had heard about it and by now I’m just surprised it was only 7…

I absolutely hate this system. I had a young kid starting kindergarten, I got infected with tree hundred variations of the common cold in the span of a year. I couldn’t take more than a single day off per month with self-reporting! The GP kept having to see me, verify I had the common cold, prescribe me with a couple of days of rest. If I wasn’t lucky and I wasn’t healed yet by then, I would also have to go back to see them. Dreadful. And they had to do it for most first time parents! Insanity. Perfect way to uselessly burn resources too… aaargh, still upset at it years later!

The root of why Europeans could claim the land in the Americas: it wasn’t developed, thus it wasn’t used, thus it wasn’t owned by anyone else. No matter all the hunter gatherers that were making a living out of the land. No matter even the earth works that could be found indicating use. There were no buildings, thus it was up for grabs.

That scene just got significantly more haunting

And public transport was dirt cheap, a third of the population had summer houses. If we could replicate the capital distribution without the human rights infringement, that would be amazing. But recently the US is doing the opposite: replicate sky high prison population with skyrocketing inequalities

Yeah, it’s a made up problem. In my experience, generated by two factors: universities wanting to increase the number of tests for each subject, and wanting students to be experienced with using computers. Thus many tests become at home, with the computer, where cheating is soooooo easy.

Can you elaborate?

This is far from normal… 10hrs sleep + naps? I saw your answers about having blood tests done and coming back good. Is there something psychological going on? Heart problems? Hormones? (I don’t need you to confirm or deny, just consider it)

I have some sweaters that are mentally labeled as “work only”. No idea why, but they feel “professional” in a branch of work where people pretty much show up with dressing discards

Agree! I got a yoga mat and that was the key for me to start exercising. Even a quick workout is better than no workout.
