Exploration of theoretical futures where Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) emerges, could it be a natural continuation of life as we know it?


So, there is this guy in Croatia who specializes in collecting, cataloging, and sharing tomato seeds for free. He also creates his own varieties.

A big kudos to Dražen from volim-rajčice (<3 tomatoes)


The post "On Possible Futures" explores the intersection of AI development, ethical considerations, and their impact on society. It delves into speculative scenarios to provoke thought on how technological advancements may shape humanity's future.


@andrewp123 cool blog post, tried the experiment like this (the result - 0 is kinda of anticlimactic):

Statement: I will make a minimal BTC transfer today, May 11. 2024, as near noon UTC+2 if the outcome is 1/true.

Result: [ { "0": 0.5140027374683648, "1": 0.4859972625316353 } ] So now we have(will) also split the bitcoin hash forever in more than 2 different branches (I guess way more than 2).

@andrewp123 Check my blog post. https://initsix.dev/in-finite-central-curve/ ,feedback appreciated :D


Hi Jeff, Great work, Respect!

I just hit the daily limit on the second request at https://climate-api.open-meteo.com/v1/climate

I see the limit for non-commercial use should be "less than 10.000 daily API calls". Technically 2 is less than 10.000, I know, but still I decided to drop you a comment. :)


10.000 requests / (24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds) = 0.11 requests / second

or 1 request every ~9 seconds.

Maybe you just didn't space them enough.


Maybe, that would be funny. ~7 requests per minute would be a more dev-friendly way of enforcing the same quota.


F... the on fire part :D


No idea

    My solution is to "meditate" on the ideas and write blog posts, so that I don't bore my friends with the topics, anyone can read the blog or contact me if they really want to.


Some time ago, I wondered if there was a way to be able to orient ourselves in an infinite multiverse. You know, the type where every option that could ever happen and every decision that could ever happen happened somewhere. In that kind of multiverse, we could think about our choices and their repercussions as being at the spear-tip of infinite possible universes...


Also, all art illustrations were done via DALL·E on the first or second prompt try. The prompts that were used are available under the images.
