47% now soo a coin toss


Note the market resolves by:

> Resolution will be via a poll of Manifold moderators. If they're split on the issue, with anywhere from 30% to 70% YES votes, it'll resolve to the proportion of YES votes.

So you should really read it as “Will >30% of Manifold moderators in 2027 think the ‘predictions seem to have been roughly correct up until that point’?”


That’s a misreading of the phrase “proportion of YES votes”. If 30% of judges vote YES, then only 30% – not 100% – of the prediction’s market cap is awarded to those who bet YES. The remaining 70% of the market cap is awarded to those who bet NO.

The market correctly rewards those who bet NO in such a case. Therefore, bettors have no reason to bet YES if they really think NO.


32% again now.


Where for $1500?


Not on Apple Refurbs. That would cost you about $2200.

And the M2 Max has a memory bandwidth of 400GB/s.


Whoops, I got confused between the Max and the Ultra for memory bandwidth. But I have seen on occasion, months ago, reverbs for that price.


I’m guessing a reference to M2 Ultra? Not sure about that price though…


M2 Ultra refurb was over $4,000, last I checked.


Looks like it just takes a screenshot and can't scroll so it might miss things.

Claude 3.5 Haiku will be released later this month.


It can actually scroll.


While we expect this capability to improve rapidly in the coming months, Claude's current ability to use computers is imperfect. Some actions that people perform effortlessly—scrolling, dragging, zooming—currently present challenges for Claude and we encourage developers to begin exploration with low-risk tasks.


Can someone please try this on a MAC/OS and just 100% verify if this puppy can scroll or not? thnks


It does in the video. Just not the spreadsheet at the start.


How are you able to make such demands given the current market? Every single house on the market has atleast 4 offers...atleast here in SoCal.


What model? It was quite expensive for one w/htlm5 interface. $400ish for a single port one IIRC


Being a software development manager in a non-software development company...in healthcare. The pride with which people claim that they are not a “technical” person while handling patient data is mind boggling.



Yeah, imagine what they could do if they had dell monitors. I bet spacex wouldn't stand a chance.


50%* of our workforce relies on agriculture. Bringing up their standards of living i.e. rural India is what we need to focus on first.

Yeah. I sometimes think about it. The problem is most of the farmers have very less land. Also they use unsustainable methods and weather has been inconsistent in recent years. We need another agricultural revolution. But it's lot more complicated to get people on board. People in the rural area are really hard to work with ( not all of them ).They suffer , but they don't want change , they want subsidiaries , free loans. maybe we don't understand them because we live in the cities.
