Since these 3 results are so similar are they a subset of a more general concept?


Arguably the halting problem is just a subset of Godel where every theorem is "This does or does not halt". Someone's written a paper going the other way: https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/avigad/Teaching/halting.pdf

The crucial trick is that you can plug in an entry as data to another "program/theorem". This is extremely interesting, because there are limited logics and limited computation models where Godel and the Halting Problem do not apply.

Not so sure about the diagonal argument.


Aren't large neural network already black boxes we don't understand built by machines we understand?


Reasonable healthcare, parental leave and vacation minimums were not acquired in the countries that have them by "the magic of a functional government" but by people organising in big enough groups to matter and bargaining with the government and employers.


~20% of workers in Europe are unionized. ~30% for Canada, ~10% for US. Canada's labour laws are very similar to US, only slightly better. It's not better than or even close to being as good as Europe.

This difference is coming from different culture and priorities. Lack of unions isn't why you don't have universal healthcare in the US and other such things. It's because the country's general culture and ideology works against both unions and social welfare.

You don't need unions to organize and demand things of the government. If people don't want to vote for social policies, unions won't make them want different things.


Like Wikipedia but a Forum?


Yeah, maybe?


In France, they can also take it from your salary.


My math teacher used to only have a tiny piece of paper with the thing he had to talk about during the lecture; since we had to prove everything we learned during this class, more often than once he couldn't remember how to prove some thing and usually happily sent a student to the blackboard to think together about how to prove the proposition. I thought that was a great way of teaching maths.


Superdeterminism isn't supposed to be an alternative to QM, usually it's an alternative interpretation of QM which allows hidden variables from what i've gathered.


It allows local hidden variable theories. Non-local hidden variable theories have existed for decades (de Broglie-Bohm/Bohmian mechanics).


This is probably where GAI would be really useful.


Reagan could


Remember, wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a textbook
