One of the great joys of my adult life has been realizing that I can just pick up a new skill every so often, take a fun little class in it weekly for a year or two, and simply enjoy meeting people and getting medium proficient and not attempting to become professional in it at all!

I have a degree in Physics and a master’s in philosophy. Starting my PhD in Philosophy. Interests: philosophy of science and technology, philosophy of mathematics and philosophy of color. I have a YouTube channel about ideas I find fascinating. Luddite
Granted I'm not smart enough to be a SpaceX investor but if I was, I think I would have questions about why you need humanoid robots working in factories on the moon, presumably making things that would need to get shipped back to earth
My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.
Hahahahahaha I wanted to type something here but I'm laughing too hard "could you still get through an entire workday" what the fuck, man, you just sharpied "I am incompetent" on your forehead.

I wrote about the Trojan horse, and what we can learn from her mouth about different cultural attitudes towards deception and violence. As someone comments below, the phrase GIFT ARTICLE is pretty scary in this context.
Turns out @emilyrcwilson.bsky.social knows a lot about ancient epics www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Mira que es difícil convencer a la gente de que la escritura es una tecnología y esta mujer lo dice directamente: «using the new technology that had become available in the Greek-speaking world in the mid-eighth century B.C.E.: the alphabet» www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
A Trojan Horse Is Supposed to Have Humans Inside It
Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey is full of contradictions about deceit and violence.

Doesn't mean it's all fine, but that it's a bigger problem than Musk. There are no hard and fast rules, procedures, or penalites to stop such destructive unintentional acts. No state authority has really addressed it. China recently did something similar with an expended upper stage of LM-3C.
Sorry to burst the Bluesky bubble but Musk’s Falcon-9 upper stage wasn’t the first piece of human junk to smash into the Moon, and it won’t be the last. As well as junk, some countries have deliberately sent impactors to smash into the Moon…

Tengo un amigo que se casaría con Donut sin dudarlo
Yo de verdad no puedo excusar a mi género de ninguna manera si están haciendo posts enumerando supuestas virtudes que tiene Carl el mazmorrero como hombre para ser marido content. Es que es canónico que las mujeres no tenemos gusto alguno con los hombres. Canónico.
I may just be a layperson, but it seems to me that in most cases, slow science is better science. Fast science seems like it's more about capitalism, and "being first to market."
I'm so tired of "social construct" being used to mean "false beliefs", either for or against. Things that are socially constructed -- e.g. money -- are palpable and often extraordinarily powerful. The denial of the social is a curse.
there are plenty of questions we might ask about the diagnostic parameters of ADHD, and the changing interpretation of them, and of the thresholds for medicating children, and the way withdrawal of other services pushes people into labels, but this question is both damaging and stupid
Hay que admitir que ya con la transferencia de tecnología compensaría cualquier acuerdo
Yo espero morir de muy avanzada edad y habiéndome tomado la medicación para el TDAH
You'd have to read to the thirteenth paragraph to discover the pull quote for the title was from Marcus Siding, a 23-year-old Swedish man living in Sweden that wanted to become a cop, but his ADHD diagnosis at the age of 12 barred him by law from becoming a Swedish cop Seems relevant
A first year above 2C in the mid-2030s now looks plausible. 0.5C was first passed in 1980, 1.0C in 2010 and 1.5C in 2024. The 15-year trend runs at 0.42C per decade. The 2026 and 2027 points for the current El Nino are estimates. We're not remotely ready!
Beef wellingtons were invented in 1991 in Newark New Jersey as a bet between a diner cook and a waitress that he could create the world's worst dish. She proposed to him on the spot when he revealed his abomination, they are still happily married 35 years later.
Enésimo batacazo de Marvel en taquilla, ni siquiera ha conseguido hacer mil millones en un fin de semana, solo 927.
Whatever you do don’t take me to The Island from The Prisoner! I’d hate to live in a cool rent free apartment full of bold late 60s modern furniture haha noooo a bubble don’t chase me haha
pluribus does a good job with "morally upright person of integrity who is also a huge unlikable asshole" which I feel like is a under-represented archetype in fiction. not like an anti-hero or jerk with a heart of gold or any of that shit, just like a person in the right who is genuinely dislikable
