  • I don’t think it’s ADD. There’s a book called ‘thinking fast and slow’. In that book the psychologist separates the mind functions into two systems. System 1 is for intuition, no effort, fast thinking. System 2 needs effort, slow, but precise. What happens here is that simply people are trying to be efficient with their thinking and they use less system 2 which is required for reading.


  • Hey,

    The photos look great!

    Personally, I try to keep my photos as they are and only edit a few. I’m always questioning my edits. For example, should it be more bluish or warmer? Should I keep what I saw, or make it better - but fake? And that’s a rabbit hole. I also try to make the whole album follow the same style, so if I edit one, I end up editing all of them. I can spend more time editing my photos than taking them.

    About the shapness, I’m using rawtherapee, I found it to have a bit more logical UI. It applies capture sharpening by default to raw images, which rarely needs adjustment. Have you tried it yet?


















  • The concept of understanding implies some form of meta-knowledge about the subject.

    That can be solved if you teach it the meta-knowledge with intermediary steps, for example:

    prompt: 34*3=
    
    step1: 4*3 + 30*3 = 
    step2: 12 + 10*3*3 = 
    step3: 12 + 10*9=
    step4: 12 + 90 =
    step5: 100 + 2 =
    step6: 102
    
    result: 102
    

    It’s hard to find such learning data though, but e.g. claude already uses intermediary steps. It preprocesses your input multiple times. It writes code, runs code to process your input, and that’s still not the final response. Unfortunately, it’s already smarter than some junior developers, and its consequence is worrying.
