I've been vibe coding boids implementations because my toddler likes to look at them. Here's one where the attributes of the boids (alignment, etc) are hooked up to frequency generators like a sequencer: https://neuroky

You might enjoy the movie Pontypool. I describe it as a zombie movie about linguistics.

That's a really hard thing to go through. I'm sorry you had to bear that as a fifth grader. It's possible that both you and your dad are victims in different ways.

What do you like about smoking? My favorite part was getting to stand outside alone for 5 fucking minutes. Check out Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking, if you're interested. It helped me think a lot more about what I was doing

I'm finding that a lot of parenting is teaching my kid that safety is something you have to do , and risks are something you have to look for and understand. For example, brushing your teeth is usually safe, but you shouldn't bru

It's an easy (but often wrong) transition from "I don't understand why" to "it must not be necessary".

He knew what he was doing, and he knew people would say "what about Obama" or whatever. This is not the first time Musk has violated a societal norm for attention, he just went way too far this time.

I think there are quite a few dehumanizing aspects of the industrial revolution. It wasn't just the water mills, but rather the lengths we put people through to keep them running.

I've felt this before. A librarian taught me a trick: chug the book. You were probably trained to really analyze what you're reading, look for symbolism, etc, but you can enjoy a book as almost an emotional-sensory experience inst
