I don't want to romanticize physical and/or repetitive labor, but in some ways that's the perfect kind of job for a writer/composer/artist. I worked a number of different jobs during college: farm laborer, busboy, j

I've always felt on the fringe of whatever group I was associated with. Honestly it doesn't feel that great. But certain times I realize I'm connected to a lot more people, and diverse people than those who are in the center

This is a false talking point. My mom was a marriage and family therapist until she retired, and the burden of dealing with private insurance paperwork - private insurance - was so onerous that she and other therapists she knew simply ha

Really? I really like his drumming in Radiohead but what else is he up to? I saw a video or two from his solo record but it seems to just be regular folk music. What am I missing?

I'm curious as to the reasoning here. I know the word "master" has some seriously negative associations when opposite the word "slave", but that's not the case here. Nobody that I'm aware of calls D&D

Also, pay rates seem to be inversely proportional to the job's benefit to society. Vulture capitalists rake in the dough while workers who do essential tasks to actually make other people's lives better don't get paid shit.

Shitshow? Seriously? You must not be very good at using a search engine. Solutions for most of the problems I've encountered on Linux appear in the top ~5 results when I cut-and-paste the error messages (with quotes!) in to google or d

If you're running Linux you can change some settings and boot to console instead of the GUI. The GUI is still there but you have to leave the console environment to get to it. I'm not quite hardcore enough to actually do this tho

As a person who is trying to lose weight, a maximum BMI rule that made a lot of tempting but unhealthy foods inaccessible to me would actually be helpful. At the supermarket too. Bring it on!

Methodology has at least two major flaws. 1- They say they only consider what the root of a domain is using, ignoring subdomains. Speaking for my own org our real work happens in subdomains running Django apps. Our www is just a WordPress s

Don't know about anyone else, but I've gotten some good ideas and had some nice a-ha! moments during those "default mode network" times.

It's one thing to make a mistake, but the stupid thing is to refuse to change even after you know it's a mistake.

IIRC in an interview Gibson tells how one of his early artistic experiences was in a high-school draft class where they had to make meticulous drawings of everyday objects like pencils, including as much detail as possible.

I agree with you that cow breeding isn't inherently bad, at least in its traditional forms. I also agree with you that almonds use so much water that it's incredibly wasteful to use them for milk in California, where they account

WestSoy is one major soymilk producer that uses Tetrapak. In stores like Sprouts and Trader Joe's it's often the only soymilk available. Tetrapak is nice in that it doesn't need to be refrigerated until you open it, but it&#

It would be okay if we'd only just start using it. Having lived overseas for a couple years, your brain adjusts after a short time. Sigh.

I think of the California cities in the "Top MSA Origin Cities (Moving From)" list as being more Republican-leaning. It could be California Republicans fleeing to red states.

The journey to Mercury is even more impressive in his earlier book "The Memory Of Whiteness" where you also get fascinating meditations on the intersections of physics, metatheater, and music theory.
