Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 22/12/2024utilitarianism as a moral theory is different than the moral code that most utilitarians adopt i can confidently say that utilitarianism asks me to save many more drowning children than i actually do. my failure to follow a moral code is different from a doubt in the moral theory 010
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 22/12/2024if there were too many children drowning for you to save them all, you would effectively have to save "as many as you could", where _could_ does a lot of heavy lifting there is a threshold where you would be so tired of saving children that to try to save another would be suicide you stop there 100
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 22/12/2024utilitarianism asks a lot and doesn't offer differing standards for mortals and angels but like the author says, utilitarianism doesn't ask for _everything_ 110

Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024my next goals are going to be to close and tighten the loop high level problems and strategies documented in notion low level problems and tactics implemented in warp and windsurf analysis of outcomes then documented back in notion rinse and repeat 000
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024one really good part was the brainstorming and planning discussion leading to good project notes in notion, allowing 4o and o1 to always know _why_ we were trying to do what we were doing the loss of higher level goals really annoyed me in the past 100
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024lots of trouble with having multiple ts files in the context at once though :( after a certain amount of time, 4o and o1 in the chatgpt app kept misinterpreting the warp history and kept trying again to fix the problem i had just fixed :( windsurf without cascade is meh, with it it's amazing 110
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024with the help of windsurf, warp (with 4o) and a mix of o1 and 4o, i had a good time today playing around with stryker and playwright in a ts express app llms really do magic with figuring out how to install stuff and get it working 100
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024from krugman's newsletter, 11% of 4.5t is paid out of pocket, roughly 500b. that's a lot of medical costs which accounts for a lot of medical debt but then there's another 3.6t that is paid by the government and private insurance premiums (approximately 400b is from third parties) 110
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024approx 80% of bills for uninsured patients are paid by fed/state/local gov approx 80% for medicare approx 90% for medicaid because of tax exclusions for esi and other tax benefits, approx 20% for privately insured patients seems to be the opposite of what you say 100
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 21/12/2024there was a good @pkrugman.bsky.social newsletter recently describing how private health insurance is heavily subsidised by the tax system and that a large amount (majority?) of medical expenses go through medicare/medicaid the state seems to pay a lot of the expense, certainly not all, but a lot 130

Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 20/12/2024you're totally right about the importance about understanding how to communicate clearly with an audience that isn't following the latest research publications (or streams apparently) but is "simulated" the right qualifier? i think it implies too strongly that the reasoning is not "real" 210
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 20/12/2024i think people who consider this not to be "reasoning" are overconfident about knowing what "reasoning" actually is 110

Reposted by Matt HeardZach Weinersmith @zachweinersmith.bsky.social · 17/12/2024So I've been thinking about why is it that most programmers I know are excited about AI replacing a lot of what they do and most artists I know are not. What's especially odd is that as far as I can tell, coding is a much more solvable problem because of huge data sets and high checkability. Ideas: 4013930

Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 20/12/2024given the way video streams appear to be input into the stream realtime interface, i'm not surprised there's no audio accompanying the video, but it was a jarring experience because the ai claimed there _was_ audio and that it heard things that it clearly did not 000

Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 20/12/2024it seemed to be extrapolating from clues from the video input and clues from my voice input. my questions started to become a bit leading and i think it realised i was trying to test it, but it failed 100
Matt Heard @mattheard.net · 20/12/2024i held up two identical plastic containers (that used to contain omega-3 capsules) and shook them in front of the camera. the left was empty, the right contained coins. it first claimed that the left was rattling with the sound of capsules or tablets. it then claimed that the right was not rattling 100
