Maybe vehicles would need to carry some shaped charges to cut a hole in the tube in case of emergency.

That would likely create sparks, and provided the tube has been cut the hydrogen is going to explode.

*preferably not the last state but some where the person felt normal.

I believe that's right! Though, if person can be reconstructed from N bits of information, and dead body retains K << N, then we need to save N-K bits (or maybe all N, for robustness) somewhere else.

It's an interesting question how many bits can be inferred from social networks trace of the person, actually.

Continuing to make posts into songs! I believe I'm getting a bit better, mainly in rapid-lyrics-writing; would appreciate pointers how to improve further.

Also, if someone is against me creating a musical form of your post, please say so! I don't know beforehand which texts would seem easily convertible to me.

This is especially concerning if we, as good Bayesians, refuse to assign a zero probability to any event, including zero utility ones.

I feel that since people don't care ultimately about money, all-nonzero probabilities will make all events have nonzero utility as well.

The LessWrong's AI-generated album was surprisingly nice and, even more importantly, pointed out the song generator to me! (I've tried to find one a year ago and failed)

So I've decided to try my hand on quantum mechanics sequence. Here's what I have reached yet: https://app.suno.ai/playlist/81b44910-a9df-43ce-9160-b062e5b080f8/. (10 generated songs, 3 selected, unfortunately not the best quality)

I've came across a poll about exchanging probability estimates with another rationalist: https://manifold.markets/1941159478/you-think-something-is-30-likely-bu?r=QW5U.

You think something is 30% likely but a friend thinks 70%. To what does that change your opinion?

I feel like there can be specially-constructed problems when the result probability is 0, but haven't been able to construct an example. Are there any?

On what basis can Alice assume

Not actually assume, but that's certainly Bayesian evidence (should Bob have tried $T_1$, he would likely respond in another way).

Also, :smile: your own comment is a fairly large bit of evidence that you haven't yet read the Sequences (by the way, I recommend doing that). For instance, you can consider different ways of thinking, answer the questions 1-4 from their perspectives, and that would be evidence on which way is better - though, reality is still the ultimate judge how each situation turns out.

I don't think there is anything I can do educationally to better ensure they thrive as adults other than making sure I teach them practical/physical build and repair skills

I think one more thing could be useful, I'd call it "structural rise": over many different spheres of society, large projects are created by combining some small parts; ways to combine them and test robustness (for programs)/stability (for organisations)/beauty (music)/etc seem pretty common for most of the areas, so I guess they can be learned separately.
