“The best remedy for insomnia, as with most things in life, is learning to live with it.” Adam Gopnik reflects on the pain of sleeplessness in a culture obsessed with sleeping.

The logically sound position regarding aliens is to acknowledge that we currently lack sufficient evidence to make a definitive truth claim either way BUT concluding they exist commits a probability fallacy. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but it's also not evidence of presence.

I went to grad school to be a librarian after doing a philosophy undergrad. I worked as a librarian for exactly 93 days before taking a temporary job in an unrelated field. Now I work at a university and my tools are excel, stack overflow, and a pretty self-serving interpretation of Wittgenstein.

On this day 194 years ago, Marius lives in poverty, Cosette is lost to him, and the snow falls perpetually on Paris. The appearance of the bear suggests hidden dangers not yet revealed: "Whether it gleams or glimmers, the bear returns to his cave.” Despite temporary brightness, winter isn't over.
