@jonobri isn't it great that 4 storey buildings allow these regional towns to provide more homes for their residents without needing to destroy our valuable bush thank you 4 storey buildings
(this tweet tweeted from the offices of an EA organisation)
as an EA-adjacent YIMBY who's doing an AI safety fellowship right now, the issues in this piece are definitely a part (not all) of why I don't fully identify myself with the EA + progress studies scenes
i took a brief break from regularly scheduled AI safety content to write up some of my gripes with the rationalist and adjacent communities longerramblings.substack.com/p/our-eyes-are…
@theloneamigo part 2 of the Model WHS Act
@Leah_CBR ok now I have to know what was this post about
in London for a couple of months doing stuff with @pivotal_org, lmk if you wanna chat also I respect air conditioners even more than I already did
@freed_dfilan if there were to be such people I would assume they would not be customer-visible
Meanwhile in Australia, someone back in 2013 briefly decided that the path to peak influence involved the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research and Tertiary Education The Treasury, on the other hand, has always refused to even say "Department of"
@HaydnBelfield I think it all is driven by the "Department of Abstract Noun" structure, originally -- Department of War/Defense (DoW/DoD), Department of Energy (DOE), Department of Justice (DOJ), etc. Even Departments with longer names tend to become three-letter acronyms -- e.g., the
@freed_dfilan actually, is it true that there are *none* whatsoever? it seems plausible to me that the TSA might have a supervisor on site or something
@freed_dfilan I know this and I'm responsible for a mere 2 SFO passenger movements in my life, but then again this is an extremely me fact to know
@taipan168 The scammy bit was more the 3 guys on the street who attempted exactly the same scam on me, separately, on the same day. And the guys outside the restaurants constantly harassing you to come in. And the Hagia Sophia ticket counter lying to upsell you
@taipan168 I was staying in Sultanahmet and only had a very, very short time there, so I did end up at a couple of more touristy restaurants, but I wasn't that concerned about the prices of the places I actually ate at.
aside from the question of whether you want to regulate junk food or not, it's interesting that people want to piggyback off the urban planning regulatory framework to accomplish this
I don’t think planners should be micro-managing what people choose to eat. Attempts to do so will lead to further proliferation of mediocre $25 mid-brow garbage at best, or a lot more empty shopfronts and dead high streets at worst.
@taipan168 of all the places I've ever travelled, Turkey has to be the one where I spent the greatest amount of time feeling scammed
middle powers may only have limited leverage to mandate AI regulations that go beyond what is already being implemented in the US, but it's probably quite politically achievable to copy California etc regulations to make it harder for the US to go back on them
One of the most important things we can do for AI policy is, simply put, transparency. Making sure that AI labs inform people about what they're doing for training AI models is an important step towards that. But xAI (now SpaceX) has challenged one of the first AI transparency
the thing about being Canberran is that when I see "secret ASIO report" in the headline I'm very disappointed to read the body and find out that by "secret" they mean O:S
