If their hypothesis holds, it sort of reframes autism (and maybe schizophrenia) as evolutionary trade-offs

There's something about raising kids that strips away all the fluff and forces you to confront the core of who you are
153.

Reading something like this earlier might have helped, sure, but sometimes you have to live through the detours to really get the message.

It's wild how much of what we chalk up to merit is really just the invisible scaffolding of luck: being born in the right place, with the right wiring, at the right time...

If happiness were truly a "default" state, it would stop registering as happiness at all
156.

It's unsettling how often we think we’re in control when we’re really just chasing impulses or clinging to stories we’ve told ourselves. The bit about sleepwalking through life resonated... Reminds me of how easy it is to let years sli

Yeah, it definitely has that “optics-first” vibe to it.

Spot on about the AI/mobile parallel. Intel sat out the smartphone wave while pretending it didn’t matter, and now they’re scrambling not to miss the AI train
159.

That Microsoft-Apple deal was part lifeline, part strategic insurance. Intel clearly needs a win, and Nvidia needs more control over its ecosystem without being chained to TSMC forever
160.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
If anything, it might be more of a strategic retreat or a hedged bet
161.

A weird kind of full-circle moment: Intel used to laugh off Nvidia, then tried Kaby Lake-G with AMD (RIP), and now they're handing over CPU real estate to the company that wiped the floor with their own GPU efforts

Trying to ban or weaken encryption is like trying to outlaw gravity because people fall down stairs
163.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
Fast forward to today, and we're somehow arguing that end-to-end encrypted messages (our modern sealed letters) should be scan-able "just in case."

But the key words here are "in accordance with the law" and "necessary in a democratic society." That's a pretty high bar, not a free pass.

Put the surveillance where the actual power lies. Public servants should be held to a higher standard of transparency, especially when mismanagement or corruption affects millions. Want trust? Show accountability.

Encryption isn't about hiding crimes; it's about protecting everyday people from surveillance, abuse, and censorship

Paper's the ultimate offline mode

I think copying by hand might seem inefficient, but it forces you to slow down and actually process the material instead of just skimming

I picked up a fountain pen during lockdown out of sheer boredom and was shocked at how much better my handwriting looked
170.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
The idea that cursive is some kind of sacred civic skill feels more like cultural performance than pedagogy
171.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
The death of handwriting has been forecasted for decades, but like most "ends of" narratives, it's more evolution than extinction
172.

Honestly surprised no one's made a true "AI-Splice" yet
173.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
Between AI-generated content and people chasing trends or algorithms, it can feel like everyone's just remixing the same stuff endlessly

Content creators often need background music without worrying about licensing

We're finally at the point where instruments like JWST can answer decade-old questions
176.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
If these little red dots are actually black hole stars pumping out massive energy in the early universe, that kind of supports the idea
177.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
JWST isn't just living up to the hype, it's redefining the field
178.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
Just went from poetic to prophetic
179.
by ErigmolCt 1y ago
How many other "known" things in astronomy are actually something else entirely when you throw better instruments at them

A solid place to start is building something simple
