STOP. BEING. SO. BANG. ON. THE. MONEY!
Sometimes the wrong apes are on the wrong side of the glass!
It's not hard. Be honest & direct & try to make people's lives better!
Epic!
Something that our education system has *never* included is our collective tendency to forget internalized hard-won info (like Nazis bad; vaccines good). Would be interested in seeing ideas to fix this. We change thinking only through repeated deep confrontation of mind models with reality.
Handy Science cheat sheet!
Fair, but I'd be warier if it's a red shirt!
Goddamn horseshoe theory strikes again!
Yep!
It's the simple things! Toast with (salted) Kerrygold FTW!
Read this! It is brilliant & riveting.
Well done @quantamagazine.bsky.social

This is so important! Scientists need to informally chat with each other about the things they're obsessed about! That's a good day.
And chasing things down. You need to talk to people who know more about X or Y or who can help you refine your view of Z. Then test your models with observables!
Very interesting speculative piece on what AI/AGI means for the economy. Worth a read:

Oh for sure ($1.5T). Sensible use of a windfall. Every country should follow Norway's example! UK and NL didn't, IRL is learning (using Apple corp tax revenues).
On engineering scales of
1 (LEGO blocks) to the human best of
LIGO GW detectors, this is super cool, like 0.01LIGOs.😀
The second best thing about Uranus is that it gives us a free neat view of what planets look like from above.
The best thing is jokes about the name.
True. If most Americans were allowed to see this is as a possibility, they would grab it with both hands.
Hidden in here is a contender for quote of the year!
"We were supposed to “critically embrace generative A.I. technology.” When I asked what that meant, nobody had an answer."
There's a fine line between Satire & Breaking the News. Jesus!
Stay awesome Glasgow! Go Weegies!
Tells you everything. Always listen to what regular folks say about encounters with the high & mighty.
Very cool! Maybe de-oxygenation treatments will help reverse diabetes & some cancers?
This is amazing! Possible universal vaccine for colds/flu/Covid? Biotech has undergone a remarkable phase transition in the last 10 years.
Excellent!
Today's winner!
Behold, the cur-sed stone that pushed us into this timeline.
If you like your op-eds with a draught of acid, this is scathing.

I wish that more of the US had rank choice voting. STV is brilliant! ("The Irish Menace"). The US could also clearly benefit from multi-party systems. The GOP =a fascist + a classic center-right party. The Dems = a centerist party + a left wing party. There's 4 actual parties, but the system says 2.
Sure, fight in the primary for *your guy* & pull the party in the direction you want. But in the general election, it'll be Fash or Dem & that's no choice.
