kanzure | "3% isn't shocking to me, in fact a number of studies of IV med administration have error rates narrowly on either side of 50% and serious error rates in the double digits. This report suggests that you're safer in surgery than elsewhere in the hospita" | 05:23 |

CaptHindsight | they hire people that are willing to work for the least amount of pay | 06:34 |
CaptHindsight | so they end up with nurses that barely passed the test | 06:34 |
kanzure | and what about all that illegible handwriting, huh huh | 06:35 |
CaptHindsight | IV meds, dialysis etc anywhere they have to be competent enough to read and press a few buttons | 06:36 |
CaptHindsight | they don't care, they don't even want to be there | 06:36 |
kanzure | dialysis machines cost too much too | 06:36 |
CaptHindsight | when the system is for-profit and run by a bunch of sociopaths what other outcome is expected? | 06:38 |
kanzure | sociopaths really aren't that bad | 06:39 |
kanzure | you'll have to find another boogeyman, move along | 06:39 |
CaptHindsight | lets talk in a few decades | 06:40 |
kanzure | wont you be dead? :-) | 06:40 |
JayDugger | Wow. I think set a new record for hitting ignore. | 06:41 |
kanzure | two weeks? | 06:41 |
CaptHindsight | kanzure: lets see how far you get | 06:41 |
kanzure | hahah | 06:41 |
kanzure | well played | 06:41 |
JayDugger | No, that's the theme of the conversationI just had with my boss. | 06:41 |
JayDugger | Two lines. As in sat down at the terminal, read two lines of the log, and hit ignore. | 06:42 |
Aurelius_Work | man, I prefer sociopaths I know are looking out for their own good (because you can incentivize sufficiently smart ones) to people who I know want to choose what's best for me against my will. | 06:42 |
CaptHindsight | good luck with that | 06:43 |
CaptHindsight | the problem is that they aren't looking out for themselves, unless by lookout you mean short term profit | 06:44 |
kanzure | you really think that's a byproduct of sociopathy? | 06:44 |
Aurelius_Work | yeah, that's more the emergent product of a system with unfortunate interactions | 06:44 |
CaptHindsight | we'd have to define sociopathy first | 06:45 |
kanzure | .wik sociopathy | 06:45 |
yoleaux | "Psychopathy (/saɪˈkɒpəθi/), also known as—though sometimes distinguished from—sociopathy (/soʊsiˈɒpəθi/), is traditionally defined as a personality disorder characterized by enduring antisocial behavior, diminished empathy and remorse, and disinhibited or bold behavior." — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sociopathy | 06:45 |
Aurelius_Work | and -apparently- (take this with a massive, massive grain of salt), 4% of CEOs are psychopaths vs 1% of genpop, so | 06:45 |
JayDugger | Let's rationalize envy, by all means. | 06:48 |
kanzure | wha? | 06:48 |
JayDugger | I doubt that statistic very much. | 06:49 |
CaptHindsight | I bet it's 50.2% accurate | 06:49 |
Aurelius_Work | http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20422644 apparently sourced from this--but again, skepticism suggested | 06:51 |
kanzure | .title | 06:51 |
yoleaux | Corporate psychopathy: Talking the walk. - PubMed - NCBI | 06:51 |
Aurelius_Work | (not exactly a subject I care that much about) | 06:52 |
CaptHindsight | we need more corporate poetry | 06:53 |
CaptHindsight | well really the arts in general | 06:53 |
JayDugger | Fair enough. The abstract didn't encourage me to reconsider my doubts. | 06:53 |
kuudes | psychopathy has a confusor, where terms are unclear | 06:59 |
kuudes | and there seems to be at least 1 mainstream school in psychlogy which defines psychopathy so that it is so strongly connected to low iq that it is really hard to connect it to success in corporations | 06:59 |
kuudes | there is also a relatively strong (layman?) school which purports the concept that leaders are psychopaths | 07:00 |
kuudes | I think there may likely be a term mixup or something | 07:00 |
kuudes | perhaps narcissism or something would be a better term? | 07:00 |
kuudes | it seems really unlikely that there would be many iq <85 corporate leaders | 07:01 |
kuudes | this is somewhat similar to autism spectrum diseases, where there is folk psychology connection between very high iq and aspergers, even though this likely is false | 07:02 |
kuudes | and may come up from the term confusion that "high iq" as a specific term in autism research is a term which means "iq > 85" | 07:02 |
kuudes | so yeah, aspergers are "high iq autists", but that does not mean they have iq > 130, but iq > 85 | 07:03 |
kuudes | then again, there is also the possibility that US and many other countries differ in these cases as well - it seems US has deeper amount of low iq performance than europe maybe, even though high iq prevalence may be same (or sometimes maybe even higher). but these are hard to say, as we still lack much of population level statistics on the matter | 07:05 |
CaptHindsight | what percentage of psychologists think that they are studying science? | 07:08 |
justanotheruser | probably most the research psychologists | 07:10 |
kanzure | sleeptypes.txt from yesterday has lots of "okay! we are ready arent' we. okay the first official meeting of new anime club is starting right now. we would all like to welcome our first new member, this guy. say hi to this guy. he comes from okinawa province and likes noodles. and he ha that super cute bb8 robot so that's pretty cool." | 07:10 |
kanzure | but wikipedia says there's no such thing as okinawa province | 07:11 |
CaptHindsight | province, prefecture why argue over words? | 07:12 |
kanzure | oh | 07:13 |
kanzure | yeah okinawa does seem to exist, weird | 07:14 |

JayDugger | wearable Hand tracking kickstarter, 40-60 ms latency seems high to me. | 07:33 |
JayDugger | https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/asdffilms/gest-work-with-your-hands | 07:33 |
kanzure | i think my keyboard sometimes gets my keypresses at an 11-16 ms interval | 07:36 |
kanzure | i think we need like 3-4 accelerometers per finger, then some touch/force sensors, and then some wrist flicking sensors and arm movement sensors. | 07:36 |
kanzure | lots of degrees of freedom to abuse | 07:37 |
kanzure | https://ksr-ugc.imgix.net/assets/004/788/475/0ead26756d62d5f7d95d87d634df0da0_original.gif?v=1446064797&w=680&fit=max&q=92&s=8fcf6ff93428a8267a9d3631ca079301 | 07:38 |
kanzure | wait what's the claim for the origin of that latency? | 07:38 |
JayDugger | From their kickstarter page. | 08:01 |
JayDugger | My 20 minute latency originates in my wife calling me. | 08:02 |
kanzure | no i mean it's the data processing lag? | 08:47 |
kanzure | or finger movement lag? can't be finger movement lag. | 08:47 |

kanzure | "Yes, some Deaf do sign in their sleep. My wife and I have both caught each other doing it. Very difficult to make any sense out of it though. (So, I reckon our secrets are safe.) Yes, sleep signing can and does occur in people who have learned ASL later in life." | 09:10 |
kuudes | isn't it an anime trope for a person to be from okinawa (less urban, outsider) and eat (much) (noodles)? | 09:34 |

FourFire | IQ 130 is pretty damn high | 13:01 |
FourFire | wouldn't IQ >110 already be high IQ by GenPop standards? | 13:01 |
kanzure | kuudes must be a member of the cult of iq worship | 13:03 |
kuudes | well, yeah, but the point is that there is folk misunderstanding that "high iq" -> aspergers which is false | 13:04 |
kuudes | same for similar "high iq" -> negative thing X | 13:05 |
kuudes | and then again http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2436765 etc | 13:07 |
kanzure | i appreciate that you did not deny the iq worship claim | 13:07 |
kuudes | "Are CEOs Born Leaders? Lessons from Traits of a Million Individuals" | 13:07 |
kuudes | "CEOs have higher cognitive and non-cognitive ability scores and are taller than typical members of the population." | 13:07 |
kuudes | I am not sure if I disagree or not with you kanzure, but I believe you in general have well founded opinions on many topics | 13:08 |
kanzure | there's a strong history of bias towards iq from the lesswrong direction, easier if i don't have to dig up evidence hehe | 13:09 |
kanzure | not sure what the focus is re: CEOs, why not COOs or CLOs or CTOs. | 13:09 |
kuudes | well ceos are easier to avail because they are just register drivers | 13:09 |
kuudes | keloharju and others have more papers on where they just cross link nordic military iq tests and population registry | 13:10 |
kuudes | http://faculty.chicagobooth.edu/juhani.linnainmaa/IQandParticipation_JF2011.pdf is a major paper where they cross link some 6-7 population registry sources | 13:11 |
kuudes | to get iq for each side of stock trade in helsinki stock exchange trades for some 10 years or so | 13:11 |
kanzure | for every stock trade? | 13:11 |
kanzure | or, er, what? | 13:11 |
kuudes | as there is conscription at that time in finland, so all male iq is known because otherwise you go to prisonj | 13:12 |
-!- Houshalter [~Houshalte@oh-71-50-56-224.dhcp.embarqhsd.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] | 13:12 | |
kanzure | iq or prison, tough choice for me | 13:12 |
kuudes | and all stock trades are tracked by social security id to either person's own iq or their brother's or fathers iq | 13:12 |
kuudes | and to their portfolio stats and tax stats and location stats etc | 13:13 |
kuudes | and those are really not any samples but the whole population and tax registry | 13:13 |
kuudes | that is the most invasive population level study I have ever seen | 13:13 |
kuudes | even PIAAC falls short of that | 13:14 |
kuudes | no voluntarism required - all data comes from mandatory sources | 13:14 |
kuudes | http://faculty.chicagobooth.edu/juhani.linnainmaa/grinblatt-keloharju-linnainmaa_jfe2012_advance.pdf and http://www.haas.berkeley.edu/groups/finance/20130516%20IQFundChoice%20SSRN.pdf are from the same source iirc | 13:16 |
kuudes | one finding was that around < iq 115 people make suboptimal choices and sort of in general cannot really be considered as rational investors. such is problematic, if 5/6 of population cannot really participate to stock markets or expected to so | 13:17 |
kanzure | i'm pretty sure it would be impossible to prove that high iq correlates with being incapable of irrationality | 13:19 |
kanzure | unless you have weak definitions of incapable i guess | 13:20 |
maaku | kuudes: you do know that iq merely tests your ability to take an iq test? | 13:20 |
kuudes | can you rephrase that with lesser amount of multiple-negatives, kanzure? | 13:20 |
kuudes | maaku, you are welcome to go to an iq test and get max scores there... | 13:21 |
maaku | kuudes: you do know that people do exactly that? | 13:21 |
kuudes | no, I do not know. do you? | 13:21 |
kanzure | often there's just a handful of variations you have to know for iq test taking, like the "shifting" methods and the "acceleration" methods | 13:23 |
maaku | yes, it's basically the same as getting perfects on the SAT/ACT | 13:23 |
maaku | entirely possible with sufficient effort | 13:23 |
kanzure | re: without the multiple negatives.... "high iq does not prevent irrationality". | 13:24 |
kanzure | wait, without | 13:24 |
kanzure | "high iq does not ensure rationality" | 13:24 |
maaku | you know what sorts of questions are asked, what's being looked for, and you build yourself an internal expert system for categorizing questions and appropriate strategies for each | 13:25 |
kanzure | and hten there's the somewhat more trivial visual rotation questions | 13:25 |
maaku | this is how, e.g., my friend who coaches students for the SAT is able to sit down for the test every single year and get a perfect score | 13:25 |
kuudes | kanzure, I agree, that we currently don't yet have enough high iqs that the dysrationalities such as Kahnemann mentions could be clearly overcome | 13:26 |
FourFire | kanzure, your statement and "ratiomality requires [higher than X] IQ are not mutually exclusive | 13:26 |
maaku | FourFire: answer us what IQ is actually measuring and we can talk about that statement | 13:26 |
kuudes | the data seems to suggest that at least those tests that I have seen on rationality, could be overcome around iq 145 or higher, but prevalence of those iqs is currently still rather rare | 13:26 |
FourFire | but by IQ I usually mean G, except you can't really measure G | 13:26 |
kuudes | maaku, clearly there are many people who would like to get perfect score on SAT but don't seem to manage to | 13:27 |
FourFire | unless anyone here knows of a better way to measure General intelligence than correlating from IQ? | 13:27 |
kuudes | or do you claim that all people who don't score max SAT are just too lazy? :-o | 13:27 |
maaku | kuudes: you're missing the point -- what you do to get a perfect SAT is a systematic. it's a time consuming process, yes, but anyone can do it | 13:27 |
FourFire | > laziness is an inherent personality trait | 13:27 |
FourFire | maaku, except those who can't | 13:28 |
kuudes | I know only some 1/3 get in to medicine in my locale, and many people pay large amounts in prep school and try multiple years but don't get in | 13:28 |
kuudes | maaku, I disagree. | 13:28 |
kuudes | there are many people who cannot do basic addition | 13:28 |
maaku | FourFire: unless you are being pedantic about genuine intellectual disabilities, you're asserting that without data | 13:28 |
kuudes | and I have met people who cannot ever throw a ball | 13:28 |
FourFire | maaku, anecdata, my own. | 13:29 |
kuudes | clearly those people have non-overcomeable problems re those tasks | 13:29 |
kuudes | and it is not just that they are too lazy to learn | 13:29 |
kanzure | rather bleak outlook on things; i think it would be easier and more useful to conclude that they probably have lousy teahers. | 13:29 |
kanzure | *lousy teachers | 13:29 |
maaku | kuudes: you're conflating "someone can't do X now" with "someone is inherently incapable of doing X" | 13:29 |
FourFire | maaku, oh, if I use a charitable definition of "genuine intellectual disabilities" in order to save time, then you automatically exclude a bunch of the population for free | 13:29 |
kuudes | I have taught people. | 13:29 |
kanzure | maaku: i have never benefited from knowing about iq | 13:30 |
FourFire | what about those people you exclude | 13:30 |
kuudes | but yeah. this conversation likely does not bring much fruit to either party | 13:30 |
maaku | kanzure: that's the simple truth | 13:30 |
FourFire | maaku, not to mention that there are multiple areas you can have capability in (though G appears to be a general multiplier of capability in most/all areas) | 13:30 |
kuudes | you are too invested in your opinion that iq is zilch, and I am too invested into my opinion that iq is an useful measure. | 13:30 |
kuudes | I am pessimistic of the usefulness of continuing this conversation to either of us, or the audience. | 13:31 |
maaku | FourFire: G is nonsense, but I lack the stamina to debate this | 13:31 |
FourFire | maaku, "genuine intellectual disabilities" seems like a nonsensical term to me | 13:31 |
kuudes | piaac is a main study on general aptitude, you may want to look into it. http://skills.oecd.org/OECD_Skills_Outlook_2013.pdf | 13:32 |
kanzure | kuudes: what is pessimistic about not having found any utility about iq? | 13:32 |
FourFire | maaku, would you prefer to discuss "agency" or is that term nonsensical to you as well? | 13:32 |
kanzure | kuudes: the utility of this conversation to you, the potential utility at least, is that you might be convinced that there are other more productive ways to investigate the human brain | 13:32 |
kuudes | kanzure, what should we expect to gain with this dicussion? | 13:32 |
maaku | FourFire: I would prefer people not think their limitations are inherent. as soon as you go down that road you case is helpless | 13:32 |
kanzure | just said | 13:33 |
kuudes | I do not hold such true that holding that the general findings to psychometry false would be necessary to learn of human mind | 13:34 |
FourFire | maaku, my issue with what I think you are proposing is that you're basically saying "anyone can do [x intellectual feat] just so long as their agency is artificially inflated with the appropriate amount of conscientiousness/self-discipline/attention-span/work-ethic | 13:34 |
maaku | "my IQ test score is 102. welp, guess I'm not a genius" OR "my IQ is 143, so shut up" <-- neither is useful, so what's the point? | 13:34 |
kuudes | but but. | 13:34 |
FourFire | my point is that some people cannot at present, and might never get enhancements to either or all of those qualities | 13:35 |
kuudes | mm. indeed. I am off. it seems I am hungry and eating would be more utile for me. | 13:35 |
kuudes | thank you, have a nice day! :) | 13:35 |
kanzure | kuudes: there's a great deal we can do with neurosciene without thinking about iq, such as the development of microelectrode arrays, deep brain stimulation, remote brain stimulation, optogenetics, molecular tickertape recording at single-spike resolution (a recent favorite), voltage sensors for mri reporting, ultrasound contrast agents, genetic knockout, gene therapy, etc. etc. | 13:35 |

FourFire | maaku, I am sympathetic to that viewpoint, but I'm as of yet undecided as to whether it is intellectually honest to delude myself into believing it. | 13:35 |
kanzure | most "intellectual feats" can be broken up into other sets of tasks, sort of like mapreduce | 13:36 |
maaku | FourFire: given that there is zero, ZERO neurological evidence for IQ, g-factor, etc., I would say it is intellectually dishonest to believe in it, but whatevs | 13:36 |
kanzure | you can "believe" in whatever you want, but when you have to actually implement technology or build things or do things, i have no idea what the knowledge about iq is going to provide to you... it certainly doesn't tell you where to poke, which genes to poke, etc. | 13:37 |
kanzure | "these 1200 genes are somewhat related but we have no idea" isn't really that helpful | 13:38 |
kanzure | FourFire: would it surprise you to learn that my iq is 105? | 13:39 |
kanzure | well, that's not really fair i guess, that was random web test, and not the previous psychologist-conducted test result. but still. | 13:39 |
kanzure | maaku: what's the typical evolutionary pressure for modularity? we should just apply that to mouse brain and take whatever we can get out of that. instead of giant hunk of mass that has no discernable modules. i want blob of neurons that very clearly does working memory, and blob of neurons that very clearly does vision, with physical separation and stuff. | 13:42 |
fenn | thanks for the papers kuudes, i am interested in this topic and this is some amazing data | 13:43 |
kanzure | yeah the papers were good | 13:44 |
kanzure | didn't know anyone did iq/stocks studies | 13:44 |
fenn | G is a statistical property, so it's not surprising that there is no neurological evidence for G itself | 13:44 |
kanzure | right i thought that some of these were only applicable over large populations or something | 13:44 |
kanzure | "applicable" for some meaning of "applicable" | 13:44 |
fenn | i mean G is "the thing that correlates best with all of these different tests of non-learned ability" | 13:45 |
fenn | and nobody has been able to come up with any tests of ability that don't also correlate with G | 13:45 |
fenn | frankly i'm surprised this is a contentious point in here | 13:48 |
kanzure | which point? | 13:49 |
fenn | that IQ is an important thing to study | 13:49 |
fenn | it's the best performance test we have so far | 13:49 |
kanzure | the differences between iq 40 individuals and iq 90 individuals are really trivial in the scheme of things | 13:50 |
fenn | how else are you supposed to measure progress though | 13:50 |
kanzure | depends on the goal- for example, monkey cognitive ability can be a very useful agi goal | 13:50 |
kanzure | human brain matter and monkey brain matter is pretty similar | 13:51 |
fenn | i think IQ only applies to humans | 13:51 |
kanzure | performance tests don't seem likely to help with figuring out any of the interesting questions we have at the moment | 13:51 |
kanzure | s/questions/problems or goals | 13:51 |
kanzure | "what is memory and how does it work and wtf?" and "working memory, wtf?" and "vision, wtf?" | 13:52 |
kanzure | i should lay off on talking about vision; we actually have that one nailed down pretty well. | 13:52 |
fenn | yeah cross vision off the AI list | 13:52 |
kanzure | well, i mean neuroscience of vision at least | 13:52 |
fenn | (things that are no longer considered AI) | 13:52 |
kanzure | or at least, i mean, good theories that seem useful about the visual cortices | 13:53 |

kanzure | although you could, fairly, consider semantic object identification to be part of vision or something- like, being able to talk about what you see and identifying objects, which iirc is not a vision system function itself, but in any event if you were to include that then it's still a bunch of open problems in neuroscience | 13:54 |

kanzure | fenn: not sure why english output like that. | 13:57 |
fenn | because that's what they programmed it to do | 13:57 |
fenn | "This kind of system could eventually help visually impaired people understand pictures, provide alternate text for images in parts of the world where mobile connections are slow, and make it easier for everyone to search on Google for images." | 13:57 |
kanzure | i would rather something like, "okay here is the processed result, now query against it for typical questions like 'what is the scene', or 'what time of day is it'" instead of generating a summarizing sentence. but begger's can't be chosers. whatevs. | 13:58 |
kanzure | *choosers | 13:58 |
kanzure | the natural language aspect seems unrelated and weird | 13:58 |
fenn | it uses two co-trained RNN's to both analyze the image and generate natural language | 13:59 |
fenn | presumably these were both well worked out problems and the paper was just how to glue them together | 13:59 |

fenn | personally i think these chatbot things are a complete waste of time | 14:08 |
kanzure | is that how you really feel about me | 14:09 |
fenn | i would be more interested in the iq score of a RNN trained on image/scene analysis | 14:09 |
kanzure | oops wait where's gradstudentbot | 14:09 |
fenn | i mean stuff like the loebner prize and other turing test stuff | 14:10 |
