This is fun but obviously assumes the conclusion

We need a function that hits infinity at a finite time. That's the whole point of a singularity: a pole, a vertical asymptote, the math breaking:

Also interesting that tokens/$ which represents the energy constraint is the shallowest slope, and also weird taking it out doesn't impact the date. That's a red flag, as you would think removing the energy constraint would bind.


Nice, does it have Excel for Windows hotkeys?



This is help for the classic LibreOffice app, not the new web thing (which appears to have no settings?)


will this nuke my old convos?

opus 4.5 is better at gpt on everything except code execution (but with pro you get a lot of claude code usage) and if they nuke all my old convos I'll prob downgrade from pro to freee

so...kinda?


what happens when you have three players, and three options that do not have a stable equilibrium?

aka Arrow's impossibility theorem?


Interesting question.

Maybe we can break out of it by giving who ever is taking accountability if that thing goes wrong a tie breaker vote, or have their votes weigh a bit more?


yes, the classic solution to a hung democracy...appoint a dictator!

(kidding)


find a 4th player or create a game to find/build/grow an independent one within the constraints of the system. make sure it's 'fair enough' as in "no sabotage".

The people of Venezuela and Iran seem to be trusting it.

Though I can't speak for the good people of the TAX RESEARCH organization of the UK.


Trust the US for what exactly? Looking out for US (business) interests? Sure. Wanting access/control of oil. You betcha. The interests of the people in those countries? Pull the other one.

I imagine the people of Venezuela and Iran, at least some of them, want a replacement for their current regimes, hoping recent actions by the US proves to be a tipping point. It is opportunistic. This in no way suggests they trust the US. Given the history of the US in both Latin America and Iran, it would be ludicrous to suggest otherwise.
