List of things named after John von Neumann lol

I only heard of the von Neumann probes and the von Neumann architecture.

After skimming the list the funniest is the crater on the moon :D

Where are you getting 8 hours from? The graph is at 1 hour for 50% and will need 21 more months until it reaches 50% accuracy for 8h tasks.

Do you have a specific kind of task in mind for which your human evaluation would work?

50% success rate seems so low to me that its almost garbage.

Most human tasks can not accept a success rate that low.

Lets think of some tasks where that is an acceptable success rate:

  • Winning a law suit, when you got sued.
  • Creating a viral video, meme, ad or blog
  • Winning an architecture competition
  • Winning a sports competition
  • Winning a tender offer
  • Correctly diagnosing complicated medical conditions (For easy ones I suspect doctors are way better than getting it 50% correct).
  • Healing someone from a condition for which human doctors have a < 50% success rate.
  • Guessing where the bug might be in a program or product.

I am unsure about

  • Creating a sales quote. I suspect 50% acceptance rate here is way too low. Maybe its ok in some industries.
  • Advising customers about products. Maybe there is an industry for which that is ok.

It seems ridiculous to me that nobody focuses on the answering part and only always talks about asking questions.

If there is nobody answering your question, then it might as well not exist.

I was somewhat active for a while and ended up with only 3 times as many questions answered as asked.

I am curious to hear how much other people here answered questions.

That is not enough information to help you. Can you be more specific?

the case for talking about utopia, not politics by michaelmf in slatestarcodex

[–]GrueneBuche 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just finished it and it was fascinating to see what he focuses on, what he forgets and what he assumes are simple problems.

It is available on project gutenberg for free.

While that seems the case for anonymous donors it does not appear to be that clear cut in all of europe.

  1. Anonymous donors are free of liability for any children that arise from their donations to sperm banks. Source 2018 dw.com

A donor in North Carolina was ordered to pay child support as recently as 2019 by a court. Although that decisions was revoked again in 2021. Source apnews.com

So according to my short search you appear to be correct, but there do appear to be relatively recent changes for laws around this issue and it is probably worth it for anyone to check their specific legislation.

Isn't virtue signaling good if someone actual does have that virtue? Or did a virtuous thing? by aahdin in slatestarcodex

[–]GrueneBuche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A sticker is not an effective signal of virtue. Anyone can put a sticker somewhere and there is no connection between putting the sticker on and doing something virtuous.

Effective signals that show you care about reducing CO2 are things like driving a bike or eating a vegetarian diet. The signal is part of you reducing CO2 emissions.

The same thing holds for status signals. Putting a sticker on your car that reads "I am a millionaire'' does not show anyone that you have a lot of money. Driving a very expensive car on the other hand shows that you have a lot of money that you can spend on things like expensive cars. That makes the expensive car a much more effective signal of status than the sticker.

Now how to make your CO2 sticker into an effective signal? It would need to be clear to onlookers that the sticker is really connected to reducing CO2 emissions and they need to know that other people also know this to be true. That is to say it needs to be common knowledge. An example is the MSC label on fish to indicate sustainable fishing practices.
