In this week's episode, we watch one of Tom Hanks' earlier films - Volunteers. An update on the RS4 (it's finally, truly, completely, done). The used car market appears to be slowing down - at least according to Doug DeMuro. He's generally pretty reliable, but we discuss nonetheless. Cars in Europe may soon come equipped with automatic speed limiting tech. An Explain Like I'm 5 (ELI5) post from Reddit about why cars are able to drive sometimes three times higher than the highest speed limit. An Audi A6 Avant with a V10 is up on the auctions sites and Adam loses his mind. In the second half, AJ poses hypothetical car symptoms and we have to guess what the cause is. Afterwards, car-related careers, what kind of education they require, and what their salary ranges are. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brokecarsnobs/message
Good dear god, platform analytics feel like a nightmare sometimes, a bunch of red and blue lines and silly numbers that don't feel connected to anything a mere mortal can possibly make useful. But for experiences like The 2022 New York State Crime Victims Vigil (which we just wrapped), audiences can 3x by adding a Live Digital component. Knowing who your digital audience is, how they found you and how engaged they were in your broadcast are all integral tools to help you plan and develop the next engagement and grow your impact, revenue, audience - whatever goals you're aiming for. Lucky for us noobs (read: Jess) whose eyes cross at the YouTube dashboard, we have a Joe in our lives! He takes us through the analytics from this year's Vigil, makes them human and helps us recognize and understand what this information means for our future plans.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Prizes for the 2020 Review, published by Raemon on February 20, 2022 on LessWrong. The third annual review is complete. We spent two months nominating, reviewing, and voting on the best posts of 2020. After lots of thoughtful evaluation, it's time to award some prizes! As described in the voting results post, there are two prize pools for posts. Lightcone Infrastructure contributed $10k to the Review Vote prize pool, and LessWrong users donated $1770 to the Unit of Caring prize pool (which Lightcone matched 1:1, bringing it up to $3540). Lightcone Infrastructure is also awarding $3600 in prizes for people who wrote reviews for posts. Prizes for Posts The Review Vote Prizes We've awarded a $1000 Top Prize to each of the following authors: catherio, for microCOVID.org, a tool to estimate covid risk Ajeta Cotra, for Draft report on AI Timelines evhub, for An Overview of 11 Proposals for Building Safe Advanced AI johnswentworth for When Money is Abundant, Knowledge is the Real Wealth, Alignment by Default, The Pointers Problem, and Coordination as Scarce Resource We've awarded a $500 Honorable Mention to each of: Alkjash, for Pain is not the unit of effort Mark Xu, for The Solomonoff Prior is Malign Jacob Falcovich, for Seeing the Smoke Alex Flint, for The Ground of Optimization Zvi, for Simulacra Levels and their Interactions Richard Ngo, for AGI Safety from First Principles Paul Christiano, for Inaccessible Information Steven Byrnes for My Computational Framework for the Brain abramdemski for Most Prisoner's Dilemmas are Stag Hunts; Most Stag Hunts are Schelling Problems, and An Orthodox Case Against Utility Functions Daniel Kokotajlo, for Cortés, Pizarro, and Afonso as Precedents for Takeover Scott Garrabrant, for Introduction to Cartesian Frames Rafael Harth, for Inner Alignment, Explain Like I'm 12 Edition How were prizes determined? The LessWrong moderation team looked over the results of the vote, sliced four different ways: Total votes from all users; Total votes from 1000+ karma users; Total votes from Alignment Forum users; Weighted votes from all users, but with 1000+ karma users weighted 3x. That gave us some sense of how different users related to posts, and what they got out of them. In all cases, approximately the same posts showed up at the top of the rankings, albeit in somewhat different orders. I'm excited to reward all of them prizes for contributing to important intellectual progress. Two things stuck out between the various rankings: In the Alignment Forum vote, Draft Report on AI Timelines won by a landslide. In the "All Users" vote, the MicroCOVID.org announcement won by a landslide. Thoughts on the microCOVID.org Announcement Several people asked, upon seeing microCOVID.org in the review: "Is this what the Review is meant to reward? It sure was useful, but was it 'intellectual progress'? Was it 'timeless'? What would it mean to put it in a book?" We haven't yet made our final call on whether/how to do books this year, but if I were to print microCOVID, I'd specifically be interested in printing the whitepaper. Unlike the announcement (which would be quite weird to read in a book), the whitepaper is clearly a piece of enduring intellectual labor. I actually took some pretty timeless, valuable lessons from microCOVID – the schema that you can break "risk" into units that linearly add up was helpful for my overall thinking, and I expect to be relevant in other domains. And the conceptual breakdown of splitting up "person risk" and "activity risk" was useful. I think microCOVID was a great instance of applied rationality that built off a lot of concepts in our ecosystem, and translated them into a concrete product. Thoughts on Draft Report on AI Timelines Ajeya's Draft Report on AI Timelines inspired a ton of discussion: Eliezer wrote a response post...
