So we're posting AI-generated content to Hacker News now? I'm more than happy to read an article on something like this, but simply asking a chatbot to answer the question is not "news" or something that should really be shared here.

This is key. I work all day on my computer. Why would I want to go home and sit in front of another computer for hours.

This gets at the concept of accountability for those at the top of government. This is an issue in all governments, not just in Canada. A good parallel would be the United States. The list of actions the current administration has taken which have been determined illegal is astounding, yet no one is held accountable in a way that would deter future breaches of the law.

This is the kind of advice I give incoming graduate students. The sooner you start to treat grad school like a full-time job, the better. I was in a similar boat: my wife and I were both in grad school at the same time. We worked 9-5 every day, even if we weren't going in to the office. We both finished on time, and generally didn't have a difficult time with our degrees.

Or lucky! I had a great time during mine because my advisory was amazing. However, my cohort mates, many of whom I'd say are much smarter/intelligent than I, got stuck with terrible mentors.

His guide to doing well in undergraduate courses is decent enough that I've sent it around to my students as well. I sometimes have to teach first or second year students and the amount of questions I get about how to study or how to do well is significant. We kind of forget that this is a learned behavior, and everyone learns it at different times in their lives (or not at all).

Yeah the sound stage definitely gets impacted. I tend to use leather cups in the winter and fabric ones in the summer. Nothing worse than sweating from your temples while you work.

My thoughts exactly. I reads a lot like they are trying to minimize the state's power to regulate AI. I'm not sure that's such a good thing. Regulation is one of the only ways that we can manage the ``bads'' that come with any new technology. In the US, we've never been very good at regulating new technologies before industry stakeholders entrench themselves in the lobbying circuit.

Pareto efficiency is a welfare economics concept. In game theory, the closest you can get to that is a Nash equilibrium.
