How is it that time moves so quickly and slowly simultaneously? I need to speak with whoever is in charge of space and time for keeping us so distant from our loved ones.

Yeah, it’s easy to romance characters and get that stuff, and people will take that too far, but honestly, if it helps, it was also easy not to romance any of them, have a good time, and still end up feeling deeply for some of them by the end. It’s a good game.

As someone in Idaho, it’s astonishing how many rich conservatives from California moved here recently because of how “dangerous” it was. Then they turn around and complain about the “californication” of Idaho. They really just are afraid of liberals and POC.

Science communication, especially in computer science and tech RIGHT NOW, is super important and so many scientists and engineers despise things like writing and communication so much that people like you willing to try their best to bridge the gap, even when unsure, are noble and so necessary.

To be fair, no jobs for anyone. The US economy is 3 megacorps forming a presences on earth made of the broken corpses of the working class a la the rotten from dark souls 2 each exchanging increasingly fake currency with one another at incomprehensible speeds while donning a trench coat and fedora.

Should…shouldn’t this have criminal consequences? Like, I’m for prison abolition, but I don’t think these people should get to hold an entire town’s most basic right in a democracy/republic hostage, and just get away scott free. Like they should be treated as the dumpiest of Bond villains.

At least significant advances in drug tech have been made since WWII and now government meth is not literal meth in chocolate form anymore. This could be seen as a boon or a downgrade depending on your personal tastes, though.

As someone with an emphasis in Machine Learning right now, and who already is a physicist, I really hate the hype and abuse of Machine Learning models. I’m really just interested in data science and applying advanced computing techniques to physics models while also hating on tech bros.

Are these articles all basically written by people with no ability to understand that people experience life, the world, and brain chemistry differently? And, if so, why are people who haven’t hit this critical developmental milestone allowed such a broad reach?

This, but with pretty much every form of speculation that makes a handful of people much wealthier by design and at the expense of the common man. Stock market? Housing market? Cryptocurrency? NFTs? All of it scams and bullshit that we’ve allowed to exist for inexplicable reasons.

I have thankfully never been on substack, but yeah, journalism used carry some burden of factuality and coherence (like a long, long time ago, like pre yellow journalism being coined as a term), but now it’s often a bunch of shouting opinions. Waiting for a journalism renaissance. Gita is good tho.

Yeah, fair….I just wish those arguments didn’t gain traction so easily in other, similar, vacuums. Especially when they’re so weak in every facet of their construction.

A guy can only dream that all arguments would be, at the very least, coherent, I guess 🤷♂️

Also, a cluster of gas and a star are two very different things. Just as raw iron, coal, and crude oil sat in a pile isn’t a combustion engine; what are they even on about? This is some peak pseudo intellectual bullshit.

Wild under/overestimates about the progress and applications of computers. To bring dune in, I like Frank Herbert’s solution of saying they caused problems, so we just don’t use them. On one end you have I have no mouth but I must scream, the other, you have some character using a slide rule.

Also, I apologize for coming out so aggressive in that last reply. It just felt like a weird challenge that was unrelated to the conversation the way it was originally phrased, and I did in fact work very hard to understand my field, and not to just have that challenged on the internet w/o reason.

Fair, but at that point aren’t you diving too deep into semantics, like why do the fundamental forces exist? Do we need to know to say we understand them? That gets a little too metaphysical.

I’m a physicist and this is the equivalent of a midterm question rather than a gotcha, but I definitely can’t do it in 300 characters, and I’m not going to start a thread to do it like I’m a dog performing tricks for internet points, so you win I guess, congrats, enjoy your temporary dopamine hit?

We do understand gravity pretty well on all but the quantum scale, to be fair. It just took Einstein’s work to get a more clear picture. And quantum is still in its infancy.

Alchemy was a theoretical frame work based on observation of real world phenomena, though. Which is why it led to chemistry. Chiropracty, like ghosts, are not. If he claims the ghosts taught him, then it’s clearly bunk. (Didn’t think I’d come out for alchemy like this, though).

That being said, just not engaging is not an option, because the average person doesn’t know much about this stuff and the people on the side of the source are pushing much harder than those opposed, so it becomes an unfortunate race or competition to reach the average, “undecided,” person
