An IBM made/pushed term, but that matches Ciro Santilli's general view of how we should move forward AGI.
Ciro's motivation/push for this can be seen e.g. at: Ciro's 2D reinforcement learning games.

Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman chapter Alfred Nobel's Other Mistake Updated +Created
Key quote that names the chapter:
My friend Matt Sands was once going to write a book to be called Alfred Nobel's Other Mistake.
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman chapter O Americano, Outra Vez! Updated +Created
In this chapter Richard Feynman talks about his experiences in Brazil.
"O Americano, Outra Vez!" means "The American, once again!" in Portuguese, which is what one of the samba school boss exclaimed when Feynman was not playing well his instrument, the frigideira, during a rehearsal.
Feynman really enjoyed Brazil's (and notably Rio's) stereotypical "take it easy and enjoy life" attitude.

Terminal multiplexers are CLI desktop environments Updated +Created
If we didn't have GUIs, terminal multiplexers would be our desktop environments. E.g. they handle stuff like:
  • window switching
  • copy pasting across windows
  • screen locking
  • clock on the status bar (same one that holds tabs)
It is a thing of beauty.

Ciro's Edict #8 / Article metadata shown next to every header Updated +Created
This is a major feature: we have now started to inject the following buttons next to every single pre-rendered header:
  • "Like"
  • "By Other On The Same Topic"
  • "Discussions", i.e. the issue tracker for the header
  • "Create my own version" or "View my version of the page" or "Edit" button depending on wether the user can edit or already has a version of the article or not
This crucial feature makes it clear to every new user that every single header has its own separate metadata, which is a crucial idea of the website.
