I love how there’s a random cute girl in the top left, no idea who the hell she’s supposed to be, but 👍🏻.

He is engaged to a prominent politician, so adjust your expectations downward appropriately.

Stay humble and faithful and you will be rewarded in Datacenter Heaven.

I guess y’all don’t have so many earthquakes.

Yeah my aunt can’t taste anything any more after covid, it’s awful.

Meanwhile I can poach a $1.50 chicken thigh in $0.75 of stock and it tastes like heaven, so that’s not my problem.

It’s actually the decline in quality that put me over the edge. Even the good local pizza place started tasting different, restaurant food is fuel like any other now, it’s not special.

40 years ago Wendy’s burgers were actually good.

Busywork fills time and can feel productive. I found it a constant temptation as an eng and pm.

I could spend a couple of hours thinking hard about an actual problem that needs solving, orrrrrr I could fuck around with the bug database doing stuff that gets counted by my boss…

And bosses need to be on alert that they aren’t giving out busywork and feeling good that their employees aren’t staring into space/doodling/chatting any more (which is often what thinking looks like).

The whole LLM thing needs to be studied for all of the cognitive dark patterns they are exploiting. It’s like a grift encyclopedia.

That building’s wall is beveling kinda comcerningly.

Ah but we are dealing with gamers here, not sensible people.

Pathologically Lying Pussy

That’s awesome actually. Would be incredibly useful in a shop.

Truly, they have received their reward in full.

Matthew 6:2

Connect does great at the vertical scroll.

No idea how I had not seen that before, it’s hilarious.

I meet people on apps, at kink clubs, at furry meetups, in political action groups…

And honestly, people you like and are interested in become way more attractive as you get to know them. Only dating people who are hot enough that you want to boink them on first sight really limits your options and you’ll miss out on some great people.

This is like something out of Vienna in 1917.

Big tip if that was my driver.

As a literal blue haired trans lesbian, 🤜🏻🤛🏻

The dedication in the front of the book is “For all the monster girls out there, ND Stevenson”.

Do they contradict themself? Very well, they contradict themself.

Yes. The book is for monster girls.

The movie is about monster girls, and I hated the ending so much

Popper is considered an important historical contributor by the field, in the same way that Jacob Lister might be in surgery. Groundbreaking but their methods have been replaced.

Jeffrey Kaplan is the best current philosophy lecturer on YouTube imo. He focuses more on theories of consciousness but covers epistemology too. Bryan Magee did a fantastic interview series called The Great Philosophers that’s on YouTube.

I would actually start with sociology of science if you want the most interesting contemporary stuff. Harry Collins is fantastic, check out his recent book on LIGO. Steven Shapin’s book on the Scientific Revolution is good.

Bruno Latour is a love-him-or-hate-him figure in science studies (I love him). “Laboratory Life” and “Science in Action” are great reads imo.
