By the way, I really liked your article! I love Infinite Jest and I also have a thing for Sierpinski Triangles; first time I heard about them was from Robert Anton Wilson. Last year I even linoprinted christmas cards with simple christmas t

I think if someone read a book this dense, they earned their keep. Also, what is our "Identity" if not the sum of all our influences?

what is it? I've checked the link and some other ones on this website and I still can't really tell what it is, what it does, and how do I use it. Lot's of product (?) names, concepts, but very little straightforward or organ

What "kit and training" is he even referring to? What let's you detect and destroy multiple small moving targets coming at you at various and unpredictable angles and speeds?? Oh and it also needs to be cheap and light-weight

Very nice. I have no heart issues but have been experimenting with extended breathing/longer exhales to calm down my sympathetic nervous system. I believe intentional breathing is a big, mostly underutilized tool all of us have to be g

Funny how in the 1800s they got rid of the hood. I assume hats were the reason? As in: everybody wears hats anyway, so why do we need the hoods? And then the hats mostly went away and thus the hood returned.

Orwell is an absolute master of both fiction and non-fiction. This dude lived and got dirty on purpose just to be able to report about it: far-away colonies, lower-class slums, foreign wars against fascists; in the end it even cost him his

about 10-22€/month is the minimum since you need Claude Code, which means you either need the pro subscription (22€) or an API with some credit on it

There are highly intelligent species such as whales and dolphins, which cannot walk nor run. There are also highly intelligent species that generally do not walk, such a octopuses and birds. Also you skipped other ways of locomotion, such a

I started doing "powerwalks" on most of my mornings. I aim for the upper end of zone 2 (ca. 135 bpm in my case), which is basically walking as quickly as I can without running, for about 30 minutes. It's really great, as it&#

Have you ever done some extended handwriting? What you do it with actually matters, that's literally what you hold in your hands and press onto the paper every single time; it's what determines your writing experience, especially

damn I miss David. of course I never knew him personally, but I read and loved his books, so in a way I did know him. I would like to read his perspectives on social media, Trump, and AI slop. I know it's fashionable to either love or

Wow, what a classic boomer sentiment. A strong sense of entitlement, the unwillingness to learn new things, the desire for the world to remain static, and the rage against the new. This post might be checking all the boxes.

You might find the hypothesis more convincing if you replace technology (something you clearly care about and are up to date with) with something that's not generally your thing but which changes dynamically, like maybe music, fashion,

I find it really hard to relate to people who do that. I never want people to see/hear what I am doing on my phone or computer, especially if it's something dumb or time-wasting. And to broadcast that into the world in a public sp
