@adi@twtxt.net “I usually seen the opposite. Women are more interested in longevity and happy that studies show that they live more than men.” -> I probably could have been clearer: It seems to me that women are on average much less interested in life-extension (methods beyond usual health advice such as the old “exercise, eat vegetables”) than men. This might just be founder/sampling bias (life extension comes out of the relatively male dominated libertarian/techno-optimist cluster). Actually, maybe there’s just a variance thing here: median man cares less about his longevity than the median woman, but the variance for men is higher.

Just copied over more samples today from my sample collection from one drive to another. Things are in more than one place for the first time in a long time, maybe ever in some cases? Feels nice.
I’ve already implemented like 4 new features today just out of necessity with my !sample_curation project.
to start my sample !zettelkasten, I imported some waveform collections I had nearby: AKWF, Architecture Waveforms 2010, and WaveEdit #samples #curation #zet
a collection of high-res wavetables with a !CC0 license: [[https://waveeditonline.com/]] #links #samples
implemented initial crate import in !weewiki. one step closer towards !sample_curation
I’ve recently been reading up on zettelkastens again, since it is very closely related to the ethos of a personal wiki system like !weewiki. The thing that interests me is the emergent patterns that come from linking things to things. Which is exactly the sort of solution I’m looking for !sample_curation. #halfbakedideas
saw this great writeup once on how somebody visualized data by drawing faces with them, and letting our brain’s natural face feature-extraction algorithms interpret the data. Kinda want to try to do that with some of these samples and waveforms I’m curating. #halfbakedideas
more attempts at articulating the !sample_curation problem space today. #updates
updating my wiki index, so some pages are not going to be featured there anymore: !MIDI_sucks !sample_curation !howyousay !sixtycolumnrule

The sample they chose to highlight here resembles the kind of paper a 14 year old would try & fail to bullshit after staying up all night partying right before the due date: https://blog.openai.com/better-language-models/#sample1
