Here you'll find my daily feed, composed of various websites and gemini capsules that I follow from around the internet. In the footer you'll find other feeds and message boards I peruse when this well runs dry.

Currently aggregating 218 capsules, gopherholes, and websites.

Computer Things — Get Logic for Programmers 50% off & Support Chicago Foodbanks

Philosophical Multicore — A Thesis Regarding The Impossibility Of Giving Accurate Time Estimates, Presented As An Experiment On Form In Which The Essay Solely Consists Of A Title; In Which The Thesis States That, If Task Times Follow A Pareto Distribution (With The Right Parameters), Then An Unknown Task Takes Infinite Time In Expectation; And Therefore, In The General Case, You Cannot Provide An Accurate Time Estimate Because Any Finite Estimate Provided Will Not Capture The Expected Value; And, More Precisely, Every Estimate Will Be An Underestimate, Because Every Number Is Smaller Than Infinity; And This Matches With The General Observation That, When People Estimate Task Times, They Usually Underestimate The True Time; However, In Opposition To This Thesis Are At Least Two Observations; First, That Even If Tasks Take Infinite Time In Expectation, The Median Task Time Is Finite, And An Infinite-Expected-Value Task-Time Distribution Does Not Preclude The Possibility That Time Estimates Can Overestimate As Often As They Underestimate, But People Fail To Do This; Second, That Certain Known Biases That Result In People Underestimating The Difficulty Of Tasks, Such As Envisioning The Best-Case Scenario Rather Than The Average Case; However, In Defense Of The Original Thesis, Optimism Bias And The Pareto-Distributed Problem Space May Be Two Perspectives On The Same Phenomenon; But Even If We Reconcile The Second Concern With The Thesis, We Are Still Left With The First Concern, In Which An Unbiased Estimate Of The Median Time Should Still Be Possible, But People Are Overly Optimistic About Median Task Times; Thus, Ultimately Concluding That The Thesis Of This Essay--Or, More Accurately, The Thesis Of This Title--Is A Faulty Explanation Of People's General Inability To Provide Accurate Time Estimates; Then Following Up This Thesis With The Additional Observation That We Can Model Tasks As Turing Machines; And The Halting Problem States That It Is Impossible In General To Say Whether A Turing Machine Will Halt, And As A Corollary, It Is Impossible In General To Predict How Long A Turing Machine Will Run For Even If It Does Halt; So Perhaps The Halting Problem Means That We Cannot Make Accurate Time Estimates In General; However, It Is Not Clear That The Sorts Of Tasks That Human Beings Estimate Are Sufficiently General For This Concern To Apply, And Indeed It Seems Not To Apply Because Some Subset Of People Do In Fact Succeed At Making Unbiased Time Estimates In At Least Some Situations, At Least Where 'Unbiased' Is Defined Relative To The Median Rather Than The Mean; It Is Difficult To Say In Which Real-Life Situations The Halting Problem Is Relevant Because It Is Not Feasible To Construct A Formal Mathematical Proof For Realistic Real-Life Situations Because This Would Require Creating A Sophisticated Model In Which The State Of The Universe Is Translated To A Turing Machine, Which Would Be An Extremely Large Turing Machine And Probably Not Feasible To Reason About; Leading To The Conclusion That This Essay's Speculation Led Nowhere
