I think a uniquely frustrating part of reading news in the current era is the uncertainty. Something new will happen but no one knows for certain what the responses will be because law and power are vibes. Is today's thing just bluster or are thousands going to die? Shrug emoji

When I was in grad school, I found there's only six hours of useful thinking I could do a day. After ten hours you're just piling on mistakes, there's lots of research on this
Saying you "coded for 36 hours straight" is something only people who have never programmed, and have no idea what programming is, would think is an impressive thing.

It is a claim that literally would not even fool a first year CS student. They'd laugh at you for saying it.

The biggest accomplishment of economics is arguing whether something is a recession instead of calling it a panic like the 19th century

Whenever I think about how miserable I would be trying to wake up early, I think about my coworker who is at the gym at 5am every day. Hard to express how not made of the same stuff we are

You can't make planes trains and automobiles today because there isn't an actor alike who can do the bit where he takes a drag on a cigarette then eats a whole hotdog then blows the smoke.
You really could just put a tight camera on John Candy with nothing but him and the driver's seat of a car in frame and then watch him almost wordlessly do five of the funniest minutes in the history of movies.

A great account of the brilliant Kiel team's work at the LBK site of Vrable here. Andrew does such a good job of teasing out the complexity of that century of the LBK.
In 2022, archaeologists at @uni-kiel.de's @neolithicbodies.bsky.social found 34 decapitated skeletons piled in a space the size of a parking spot. In the 3 years since, they’ve found 50 more. The mass grave is evidence for the collapse of the 1st pan-European culture 7,000 years ago. @science.org 🏺💀
Headless bodies hint at why Europe’s first farmers vanished

My hot take is peta is an industry x intelligence op. They have so much money to do stupid shit and everyone hates them. How many other animal welfare orgs get the headlines and recognition they do?
does peta sincerely think people are going to fuck the birds?

The first thing to understand, is that the number of people killed by cops is not connected to the "crime rate," (however you define that).

Every decade since the 80s has had less violent crime than the decade before. And yet every decade the number of cop killings goes... up.

Here's why:

Nw a show about the London natural history museum. Lots of talk about stuff sitting in drawers for decades until some new work is done revealing something. Eg they had some unusual beetles donated in the 1800s by a local farmer, but they were unusual as that species isn't local
