what software do you use? Sometimes when getting started writing, I'll open up a GDoc, turn on voice dictation, and pretend I'm talking to a friend. It's fine for small-stakes stuff, but i'm interested in something better designed

certainly a similar flavor around the OpenAI/GPT-3 discourse re: "the scaling hypothesis" and "the bitter lesson". Manhattan Project budget would be ~30billion today, so perhaps we're still only at the Fermi/Szilard Pile-1 stage (~$50mm today)

We are so excited to share that our initiative to break barriers and stereotypes in STE(A)M is finally live!
Help us celebrate & spread the word by sharing a pic/story about how you or your science break the mold. #IAmAScientist

Discussion is great, but what about the "discussion" around opening Memorial Drive / Riverbend Park, which remains even more locked down compared to pre-pandemic protocol! How about holding the City Manager accountable for turning discussion into action?

Let's start immediately! If the City Manager continues to stonewall action towards this human-centered transit future, how can you offer him another 3-year contract in the fall? @PattyNolan1 @VoteJivan @MayorSiddiqui @qzondervan @DennisCarlone @CambMA @cambbikesafety

I just donated to help @CalforNC win in my home state! NC has been horribly gerrymandered for years, but a pair of recent court rulings will force maps to be redrawn for the next election, the best opp. for change in years! Help move NC forward in 2020!
