I question the wisdom of reading books that someone was potentially killed for reading without better opsec than Malfoy was demonstrating.

How do you actually get a first job? I haven’t completed my degree, am struggling to live on my government provided student allowance, and don’t have any experience to put on my CV.
Isn’t that the point of the quote?
Wouldn’t this be more ore appropriate for an open thread than the quotes thread?
I’ve recently been diagnosed with ADHD (predominantly inattentive). Does anyone here share this, and if so, what resources or books on the topic would you recommend?
Internal Family Systems is the analogous therapy technique, I think.
I don’t think so. They’re running on the blockchain, which slows them down. The primary decision-making mechanisms for them are going to basically be the same as can be used for existing organizations, like democracy, prediction markets, etc. Unless you think your bank or government is going to become a seed AI, there’s not that much more to DAOs.
modelling subjective value judgements as a function.
Like a utility function?
Didn’t get a response in the last thread, so I’m asking again, a bit more generally.
I’ve recently been diagnosed with ADHD-PI. I’m wondering how to best use that information to my advantage, and am looking for resources that might help manage this. Does anyone have anything to recommend?
In the short-term I’m trying to lower barriers for things like actually eating by preparing snacks in snaplock bags, printing out and laminating checklists to remind me of basic tasks, and finding more ways to get instant feedback on progress in as many areas as I can (for coding, this means test-driven development).
I’m not sure what you mean by provably-secure, care to elaborate?
It sounds like it might possibly be required and is certainly not sufficient.
Learn Python the Hard Way is a pretty solid resource, though I used it before Codecademy came out. Both are excellent practice-based resources for starting programming.
After that, just get python books and work through them. Tools like Flask and Django if you want to do web development, other stuff if you want to do other stuff. If you don’t know if you
Stackoverflow is usually where google will take you when you look for answers to your questions, so you might as well bookmark it.
And if you don’t have something in mind you want to make, but you want to keep practising, try doing some ProjectEuler problems.
I probably need to do some exposure therapy with phone calls, but it’s definitely worthwhile doing that.
Thanks, this is helpful. I’ve been hesitant about contacting family and friends for this, but on reflection there’s no real reason for that.
The cryptocurrency I’m most excited about is ethereum, and though it is going to have a premine, development is being done in a very open fashion. It allows users to develop smart contracts that execute whenever they contract’s address receives a transaction. I’ve already written a binary LMSR prediction market contract which could run on ethereum.
Tell me how it goes! I’m up in Auckland, haven’t had much success getting a meetup group started here yet but I’ll be trying again soon.
I don’t exactly see how it clashes with heroic responsibility?
“When you do a fault analysis, there’s no point in assigning fault to a part of the system you can’t change afterward, it’s like stepping off a cliff and blaming gravity.”
Look up Bayesian Truth Serum, not exactly what you’re talking about but a generalized way to elicit subjective data. Not certain on its viability for individual rankings, though.
The specific examples may not be used, but would clarify what sort of thing you’re talking about.
You could post this as a top level discussion post here, if you want to make it more available and reduce trivial inconveniences to those without access to facebook.
