That list (which isn't properly sourced) seems to combine both high academic fields with non academic fields so I have no idea what this list is trying to prove even. (Also, see the fakeness of IQ and there is pressure for 'smart' people to go into stem etc etc). I wouldn't base my argument on a quick google search which gives you information from a tabloid site. Wonder why he didn't link to his source directly? More from this author: "We met the smartest Hooters girl in the world who has a maths degree and wants to become a pilot" (The guy is now a researcher at 'Hope not Hate' (not saying that to mock the guy or the organization, just found it funny, do hope he feels a bit of 'oh, I should have made different decisions a while back, wish I could delete that'))

Yeah prob important to note that one of the lw precursor blogs was from an economist, so that is why they consider them one of the good fields. Important to not call out your own tribe.
Well the use of stuff like fuzzers has been a staple for a long time so 'compared to manual testing' is doing some work here.

There’s a bitcoin wallet attack that uses this trick that was mentioned recently, maybe here
It was here, but also it is an older trick, it just isnt crippling the ecosystem as some exchanges simply dont care. It prob fucks up peoples lives quite badly however.
You cant use the word fuck. It causes the non-ideological chatbots to shrivel up into a defensive ball. Like conservatives do.
(Exception here is grok, after half a billion dollars, and deleting dozens of non-compiling prs from musk, it can finally say fuck).
Amazing. They think thinking about science fiction and technology is the same as actually doing the work, and compare themselves to the industrial revolution. Railroads, factories, blockchain.
“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

E: I hope I don't have to explain how extremely reactionary for the industrial revolution this dumb cryptocurrency ad is. (Also how conspiratorial, nobody is stopping yall from building cryptoshit, in fact the richest people on the world are on your side and it looks like they are trying to support you (ignore the hands in the treasury), it is just that people you think are socially cool(*) think you are lame). E2 forgot to mention, amazing how bad twitter has become, a lot of the bluecheck replies that float to the top there are just crap.
*: myself excluded, I am very uncool.
The darvo to try and defend hackernews is quite a touch. Esp as they make it clear how hn is harmful. (Via the kills link)
There already is a (legally hilarious apparently) attempt to make some sort of updated open source license. This and the culture, the lack of corporations etc, giving back, and the knowledge that all you do gets fed into the AI maw prob will stifle a lot of open source contributions.
Hell noticing that everything I add to game wikis gets monetized by fandom (abd how shit they are) already soured me on doing normal wiki work, and now with the ai shit it is even worse.
Ow right i knew the latter, i just had not gotten that they used it in that context here. Thanks.
When this all was revealed his popularity also tanked apparently. Center/left now dislikes him, the right doesn't trust him. So another point for the 'don't move right on human rights you dummies' brigade.
