kind of surprised to not have seen anyone here tweet about AGI alignment through metta meditation advocacy yet, is ingroup ok or

type of guy who's ethically non-monogamous, but bc no one wants to date him once they find out he's a utilitarian

interviewed a guy today and was more impressed by his 3 huge monsteras than his technical qualifications, call that hire by vibe

you can, actually, with self coercion; this is good, bc otherwise civilized society would be impossible, bc how can you rely on someone that can't keep their word reliably?
