Write org files. Now even vim had a mode for them. Check out what pandoc is. Don't use agenda features though, it is a huge distraction.

Wow, this is a milestone indeed. Abstract bullshit considered as an overturn of a simple experimental evidence even a freshman could set up and measure.

We must acknowledge that it went from the free speech place for nerds and autists with zero censure to a safe space for mediocre imposters where everything slightly unconventional is being flagged. Congratulations.

Enough already. Monad is a generalization (as a type-class, which is the particular way of defining an ADT) of an type-level abstraction barrier. It comes from untyped math which has "structural" notions, such as Monoid, and, inde

It is almost rediculous how everything is a subtle bullshit with nice wording. Yes, neither ivermectin nor hydroxychloroquine had an agent which is relevant at the level of a RNA viruses, a hurricane can be seen long before they are here (u

Yes, this is the kind of a story which are being dramatised in movies - a highly functioning autism, habit of attention to details and principial insistence on doing thing "just right" and enough free time and lack of distractions

This is just the tip of an iceberg. Virtue signalling is at the core of everything nowadays. Meaningless verbiage in speaking and writing, full of current memes, current useless abstract concepts and other bullshit. Piles upon piles of usel

Obviously no, because the factors that would cause extreme weather events are not yet there. In general, any abstract model has the same relationships to actual reality as cartoons - they look sort of plausible and even convincing, even wh

There is nothing with amounts to an evidence, only speculations. Evidences require at least an reproducible experiment. Nothing based on estimated probabilities and correlations is an evidence by definition. Again, this is nothing but hypot

Steppenwolf expressed this much better. And yes, watching certain professors (not YouTubers) makes one's heart run faster. I remember prof. Brian Harvey 2008 course (Scheme based) of old MIT courser by Eric Grimsin. Or Systematic appro

This is technical wishful thinking, or an abstract tech, if you wish. In the old times we called this "a solution in search of a problem", but these solutions are imaginary. This, probably, hints the the top of a couple of bubbles

There's nothing wrong in being alone. Some (mostly narcissistic assholes) even pay for fancy "spiritual" retreats and what not.

Why, this is exactly how vaccines work - they prime (or condition) the immune system, but it is the immune system that actually do the job in case of exposure to the virus. Vaccination is neither prevents infection nor spreading. Its about

Thinking Fast and Slow has all the known answers. Two systems metaphor is surprisingly good and correlates to Jekyll/Hyde and other classic notions. Different subsystems of the brain could be synchronised and this is what all the easte

Bullshit, bullshit everywhere. An abstract model can predict nothing, especially when the system is not fully observable, discrete, fully deterministic. Abstract modeling is the modern age astrology.

It should be some state actor, since such activities are costly and wasteful. It could be US, China or Russia. US to fight "terrorism" (tax evasion), the later - their own critics and residents.

Lol no. It is a whole sets of skills, from extracting just right abstracts from the problem domain and defining adequate sets of interfaces, to arrive at just right (clear, concise, mostly-functional) modular implementation. Almost no one n

This is a sect and abuse of a language in which words supposed to be associated with particular non-imaginary aspects of reality. Logic "works" not because its rules are absolute, but because Universe has its structure and laws. I

I really like the analogue with aluminium smelting. This is what bitcoin mining is nowadays, plus the increasing difficulty. Prof of stake is analogous to Wall Street institutions and probably modelled after them.
