autocorrect turned 'eigenspace' into 'wife space' and I was like ...no
this is a naive q, but is there a subset of game theory that deals with agents that can, in each round of game play, decide which other agents to play with based on their past actions? vs being randomly matched then deciding what to do
Indeed! Congrats on the launch
you should definitely apply to this if you have a relevant skill set and find most jobs understimulating

In 1890, Henri Poincaré proved the non-existence of the uniform first integral of a three-body problem and the sensitive dependence to initial conditions of its trajectories. Yet, stable solutions to it do exist.
this is going to be awesome - dates are confirmed for 6/14 - 6/17, will be a 4-day workshop focused on tech trees in replacing aging planned talks - immune system issues for replacing aging strategies - transplant surgeon's perspective - xenotransplantation + artificial organs -…

Sometimes when I’m mildly stressed, my mom helps me schedule doctor’s appointments that I'd otherwise drop to keep up w my health, and I feel like it’s one of the kindest things / most thoughtful ways to show care I’ve received Love you mom <3
What are some online textbooks that make you want to jump with joy?
does anyone have good refs for how certain we are, actually that the heat death will occur? afaik - we don't know how to talk about the entropy of the whole universe - it's not really clear how gravity plays into this scenario?
Caffeine stutters my subconscious processes to a stop - like there's a discrete dropping of whatever state was going on previously. I can still remember what it was I was thinking about, but not really 'in' it anymore. Curious if other folks notice the same thing?
Co-organizing a week at Edge Esmeralda in June! I’m super excited for it - basically a summer camp w/ longevity people into the hardcore science part of it, full of thought experiments and doodling tech trees DM me if you’re interested in coming, w/ an interesting bio thought…
Curious for the correlation between a disease having good preclinical models w/ progress toward therapeutics
curious how much author trustworthiness can be inferred from citation graph + paper content - seems like the most important variable not available online by default naively, I'd guess writing quality is huge (per Andrej's 'get the gestalt right) karpathy.github.io/2016/09/07/phd/

@LauraDeming Thank you!
My contrarian take is the so called “heat death of the universe” is far from a sure thing, and the Big Bang theory is just our best creation myth to date
@nc_znc @LauraDeming I’ve had “cancel heat death” in my bio for a long while, so this comes up perennially. x.com/davidad/status…
@Littoral_Gecko @AndyMasley This has been in my bio for years. I have had hope since @tegmark summarized for me some of the arguments in Frautschi’s “Entropy in an Expanding Universe” back in 2011. Roughly, gravitational potential energy does not necessarily seem to be bounded below. web.archive.org/web/2013081114…
