The Quality of CPI Data Continues to Deteriorate https://www.apolloacademy.com/the-quality-of-the-cpi-data-continues-to-deteriorate/
The Claude Bliss Attractor https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/the-claude-bliss-attractor I'm fascinated by degeneracy <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degeneracy>. Along the same lines as the "lifting" [⛧] of scaffolding tools to first-order objects, how often and how precisely do our working models need to be [re]bound to the world? I've long defended the idea that simulation can reduce the impact and need for experiments in the world, e.g. kill fewer animals or use wind tunnels to design wings. It seems clear this is a reasonable thing to do in some cases. But the 5W's apply: when? who? where? why? what? Were DOGE competent, they'd produce a due diligence report on the degeneracy limits of CPI imputation. Of course they won't because that's woke. Imagine actually thinking about something before you do it? Ah, the good ole days. [⛧] I'm not entirely sure what I mean, here. It's just a gesture to concepts like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(mathematics) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(data_mining). Perplexity gives me these 5 sources that I *could* use to hash out an analogy. Will I? No, probably not. But I'll log them here just in case.
