Well shoot, thanks for the heads up.
The Stuart Ritchie piece adds some useful context for the turn into the anti-medication takes at the end of the book.
“But when you reach that level,” nominee of one of the two major parties, “you have to be the face of capitalism, militarism, and neo-colonialism.” Harris, Davis warned, “has told us she will be that face, that she will build the most lethal military apparatus ever.”
And then next time we have to 
for the next face of capitalism, militarism, and neo-colonialism so that the most lethal military apparatus ever doesn't get placed in the hands of the next fascist!
When do you suppose was the last time Musk read a poem (that was not generated by an LLM)?
I've been reading Stolen Focus by Johann Hari. I don't know if it contains anything particularly revelatory, but it does do really well to line up all the evidence that tech (and our culture more generally) is designed to wreck our ability to concentrate. Anecdotally, my partner teaches and the number of kids who have issues with their phones and video games seems pretty high. COVID is probably accelerating the development of all these problems.
Also speaking anecdotally, I haven't had any major illnesses since the pandemic started and I've been massively struggling with mental health. I think we're just able to sense that our culture and society are both in a terrible place and that's causing a lot of mental strain.
It's an app like Grindr but also for straight people
Predicting right now that the proportion of users that are men will be the same for both apps
Suppressing the urge to strip naked and run through the halls shouting "Everything we do is fake!" is getting harder with every passing day and it's mainly the fault of this web site.
Assuming this isn't just evidence that the methodology sucks or the sample is crap because they picked a single right-wing crank site to serve as the functional outgroup, it seems to be pointing to a distinct lack of liveliness. The debates are all over lurid speculation about the diets and religious practices of immigrant communities.
Yes, first you will be upside down and this will be very distressing, but then a carefree fellow will come along, get you right side up, and then leave you with a cookie.
Blows my mind that there are people who'd rather have billions of dollars and live in a bunker for the rest of their lives than have a comparatively modest existence in a flourishing environment with fresh air and sunshine, and that those people are being trusted to make decisions for the rest of us, but here we are.
Oh, okay, I wasn't following the fact that the bomb threats were also coming from his camp.
It's been a while since I've breadposted because I've been lazy and not baking anything particularly exciting. But this week I pulled out the grain mill and channeled my inner Poilane. The fresh milled component is a mix of wheat, spelt, and khorasan, and the balance is Sequoia AP. I converted my liquid starter to a stiff one, then did one feeding with the fresh milled flour. After the starter doubled, I mixed the loaf and gave it an overnight proof in the fridge.
The forums said cutting the traditional three-day starter build down to one day doesn't make much of a difference, but I can't say the end product tasted substantially different from a decent whole wheat flour. Sprouting makes a much bigger difference but that's also a process.
I think I'm going to have to just go the whole hog and try all the extra steps to see if it's worth it.
