And if you look at the rate of increase of the Californian population, say, through the 1960s, that was a tremendously potent mechanism for us redistributing some of the economic gains that were being realized at the time. I think it's much more about the dispositions and the attitudes and the cultural biases of entities like the N. and the F. and the C. C. EZRA KLEIN: I find the NASA SpaceX example an interesting and provocative one. "The most preposterous notion that H. sapiens has ever dreamed up, " he wrote in Time Enough for Love (1973), "is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharine adoration of His creatures, can be swayed by their prayers, and becomes petulant if He does not receive flattery. There's something about what threat persuades societies to do, and persuades them to do technologically or what risks it allows otherwise-more-cautious governments to take, or what failures they could justify that allows them to have big successes. Is it just shorthand for economic growth or G. D. P.? P - Best Business Books - UF Business Library at University of Florida. But I think the prediction — if I'm putting this on institutions, on culture, on pockets of transmission and mentorship — I think the prediction I would make is then, even if you believe, say, that America had a great 20th century, but its institutions have become sclerotic, and we've slowed down, and everything is piled in lawsuits and review boards now, somewhere else that didn't have that, that has a different culture, that has different institutions, would be pulling way ahead. He had heart trouble, which he had inherited from his mother, but he also had a fair measure of his father's vitality and determination, and was active and athletic. And that's a question of how much the threat of war or the competition with an adversary ends up charging up innovation and convinces us to put resources, both in terms of people and in terms of money, and maybe in terms of institutions, into projects we wouldn't otherwise have done. PATRICK COLLISON: I think it's possible, but even though it's intuitively compelling on some level, I'm not sure that it's true. And the internet, which arose under Arpa — it's hard to think of innovations of similar magnitudes that then occurred in then-Darpa's subsequent, say, two decades. But I don't think we really see that. I suspect that labs were more different 50 years ago than they are today. And you see these kinds of pockets of the cultural transmission repeatedly crop up, where Gerty and Carl Cori — you probably haven't heard of — they ran a little biology lab in Missouri, and no fewer than six of their trainees, of students they trained, went on themselves again to win Nobel Prizes. Because on the one hand, I think what you're saying is completely true.
PATRICK COLLISON: That is true. Quantum Energy, IPR and the Ancient TextTHE NATURE OF EVERYTHING ON QUANTUM ENERGY, IPR AND THE ANCIENT TEXT. But it was somebody who knew they weren't founding a run of the mill nth technical college.
Four out of five chose the maximum option on our survey. A little bit more precise, I think one version of that question is, "Are we doing grants well? " I then build on Vrobel's model to identify specific properties of fractals, explore how they might model our subjective experience of time, and interface with the theories of Nottale and Penrose. And we tried to compute an approximate ordering of their significance in the eyes of these scientists. So we tried to set up what we thought would be a pretty small initiative, and called Fast Grants. DOC) Fatal Flaws in Bell’s Inequality Analyses – Omitting Malus’ Law and Wave Physics (Born Rule) | Arthur S Dixon - Academia.edu. And a lot of those people want to go somewhere where they can have a really big effect. EZRA KLEIN: How we allocate people's time is really important. So again, I don't want to give Fast Grants too much credit. I've met people who are trying to automate a bunch of legal contracts. And I think this place simply needs more housing. They had a couple of these really successful École Polytechnique and Grande École and so on.
And that's still, to some degree, true. PATRICK COLLISON: Great to be back. Quickly inundated with, I think, four and a half thousand applications, which, given our promised 48-hour turnaround, was somewhat challenging. At the confluence of these theories, I suggest aligning time with fractal scale. She's a retired Irish mother who spends some of her year living in the U. near her sons, spends the rest of her year living in Ireland, working at a hospital in Minnesota, who just got a proposal to have her book translated into German a couple of days ago. We're going to end up in the same place, regardless. She and My Granddad by David Huddle | The Writer's Almanac with Garrison Keillor. This is a great conversation today. It really does seem to me that differences in the mind-set and in the culture are where you have to net out. EZRA KLEIN: Who doesn't re-read the histories of M. T.? The idea that you might be a genius rail mind, in China, that's great. He tried to sell it to bakeries. EZRA KLEIN: And before books, let me end on this. We've talked a lot about scientific slowdown, about technological slowdown. Something changed, and we were pursuing this process of discovery more effectively in the past, and presumably, for inadvertent reasons, something went wrong, and now, we're just less efficient at it.
But if I had to isolate a single variable, it seems to me that the research culture set by specific people and the tacit knowledge transmitted through direct experience is probably the number-one thing. Interestingly, wave physics (wave amplitude transmission, equivalent to the quantum Born rule), gives the same exponential result, resulting in a sinusoidal wave for expected values when graphed (Fig. Keynes's brilliant ideas made possible 35 years of prosperity after the Second World War, the most sustained period of rapid expansion in history. And then, in the recent pandemic, or in the — I don't know. And if you look at it on a per-capita basis, or a per-unit-of-work basis, now used to divide all those total outcomes by a factor of 50, and it seems like if you imagine yourself as the median scientist, you're meaningfully less likely to produce anything like as consequential a breakthrough as you would have, say, in 1920. Most people would accept, I think, that there is, to some extent, consistent trends that tend to happen with institutions through time. And kind of far for me to try to point estimate for kind of where that is in 2037. And our intuition was that maybe a third of people would like to be doing something meaningfully different to what they actually are. Because if you get that wrong, if it goes too much in the concentration area, I think we're going to lose a lot of the political stability we need here. Physicist with a law. Journal of Advanced PhysicsThe Unfinished Search for Wave-Particle and Classical-Quantum Harmony. It's not easy to be even as good as — or to get to a place where things are as good as they are today. He called for the inauguration of a discipline — they call it progress studies — and that now has people studying it.
It's difference in the prevalence of coal, you know, et cetera, et cetera. So first, I agree, as a basic matter, that there are welfare losses occurring across society that we should be worried about, and probably everybody listening to this is familiar with the Stephen Pinker case for optimism, and rather than focusing in the headlines, you zoom out, look at these long-term time series. But you talk to people who work on pharmaceuticals and just clinical trials. Sales went through the roof. And various aspects of both funding decisions and, kind of, the precepts and methodologies of the N. H., how we design I. law, how we regulate and require and run clinical trials — there are tons of individual contingent decisions that we kind of have collectively made that give rise to the biotech and to the pharma ecosystem. German physicist with an eponymous law not support inline. And the NASA SpaceX example has a little bit of that dynamic to it, although with a different mechanism of financing.
