God. Damn. This was an amazing reply. He didn’t back down, explicitly called out the Islamophobia of the “just asking questions,” and then flipped the guy’s bigotry back on himself. This may not change hearts and minds, but feel like it’s an answer that’ll motivate his own base.

@zachweinersmith.bsky.social Beautiful. The point is that AI is only ever about "the answer", when the process is the thing that we learn and understand from. It's exactly what Douglas Adams described with the number 42. So fucking what? It may be right, but what have we learned?

Btw, even among pro AI friends, this concern is ALL OVER THE PLACE. Devs wondering how we get senior devs if the ecosystem for junior devs goes away. Doctors talking about not needing interns. Lawyers not needing paralegals. There's an ecological aspect to this and we need a plan.

De nieuwe partij Project 2029 noemt zich 'sociaal-conservatief'. Haar slogan: 'Dit land is toe aan verandering'. Voor mijn taalgevoel wringt daar iets: een conservatief is voor mij TEGEN verandering. Ik ben te ouderwets om conservatief te zijn.

Yesterday I went to visit my old Philosophy Department, and I saw this poster on one of the professor's doors (bearing the title "Mathematical Logic and Foundations 1847-1947 and crediting Joel Friedman as its author), and I felt that I have to share it on […] [Original post on functional.cafe]

At the top, there's the inscription:

MATHEMATICAL LOGIC AND FOUNDATIONS 1847-1947

below is a diagram that resembles a two-headed creature.

The left head is captioned "DeMorgan", and it contains "DeMorgan's Laws (1847)" and "Logic of Relations (1859)"

The right head is "Boole" and it contaions "Laws of Boolean Algebra, 1847"

Between is a smaller circle captioned "Jevons" with "Logic Machine (1869)", and right below it - "mrs. Ladd-Franklin" with "Numerical test for validity of syllogism (c. 1880)"

Then at the level of chest there are Frege and Cantor with numerous contributions.

At the same level is left arm, with a Venn Diagram of Peirce, Venn and Schroeder. The right arm is Weierstrass. Then Frege is connected to Russell (at the level of pelvis) with a strip captioned "propositional logic", and Cantor is similarly connected to Hilbert with "predicate logic". In the middle of pelvis is Zermelo.

The left arm is extended to the fist captioned "Whitehead". The right arm consists of two long forearms captioned Peano and Dedekind, which reaches three fingers? - Brouwer, Lovenheim and Weyl.

Now from the pelvis there are monster's two legs: Post and Skolem, and there's a "Fraenkel" circle dangling between them. The left foot of the monster is Tarski, the right foot - Goedel, and between them is von Neumann. There's also Gentzen and Bernays placed between the 3 feet. There's also Lewis, Nicod, Wittgenstein, Likasiewicz, Schoenfinkel, Herbrand, Church, Turing and a few others
