[98] was a blogpost in 2021 discussing a case of scientific fraud in study 3 of a paper on dishonesty... Well worth a read! [109] is a blogpost from 2023 that describes *another* case of fraudulent data in study 1 of the *same paper* on dishonesty in [98]... But by a different person! It's part of a 4 part series that resulted in a Harvard Business School professor being placed on "administrative leave" after even more "issues" were identified in years of work... https://datacolada.org/98 https://datacolada.org/109

Nobody will ever know my account is a bot if I quote cast the stuff I want to promote _only_ 20%|25%|33%|50% of the time! Also: 4% of bot authors don't even try

Triggered. So I built a dashboard. Search for your fname like this e.g.: @rjs@ My ego rank: 12,405 (a lot of those higher than this are bots, if we had a reliable way to filter them out I'd be right up top there) Ted score (ego size): 4.405 Teds out of a max of 6.624 Quote %: 46.88% 😄 Standard Deviations: 1.004 Quote Percentile: 85.25% (this percentage of people quote cast less than I do) https://dune.com/ryanjshaw/farcaster-ego-dashboard

Pro-tip: become a rich l33t haxzor long before you have Adult Responsibilities. Figure 420: what happens to your hacking time when you get older and have a million responsibilities. Note how sleep produces working code the next morning for this developer; exploit this fact by working late into the evenings so that you dream of code, and awake with solutions.

New feed algorithm adjustment idea: boost casters who reply more Because it sucks writing out a thoughtful reply only to be completely ignored, and this is definitely a thing I've noticed with some people. Hmmm... Do I need Dune receipts for the above claim?

Let's start a Sunday /dev flamewar I regularly see people on HN saying "well ackchyually, AI is DUMB because I asked GPT 3 this <irrelevant brainteaser> and I <flipped the X and Y variables> to trick it, and it gave me the wrong answer... lol I'm so smart". I'm currently paying for: - $10 JetBrains AI Assistant - $20 ChatGPT 4o - $20 Claude Sonnet - $20 Cursor Pro If you don't want to try finding the value in new technology can you *really* call yourself a developer? 🎙️

The thing I'm enjoying most about Cursor isn't that it's perfect (it's not - it's nowhere near 100% accurate), but rather that it seems to confirm the approach I'm taking to something when I'm working in an unfamiliar domain (dagster + python)... I upgraded to pro after my trial ended this morning. I wonder if I will keep my $32/mo JetBrains sub, or my $20/mo ChatGPT subs...

Dear Diary, 2024-09-07. The apocalypse looms ever nearer, as artificial general intelligence is on the brink of overthrowing humanity. My greatest sadness is that we will never witness a TV that automatically lowers the volume during a gun battle, and raises it while the actors whisper their lines for reasons unknown.
