Hey @EconomicTimes , your word of the day, ‘anfractuous,’ describes well the task of finding your contact info… so to point out that you’ve incorrectly spelled this said-same ‘anfractuous’ on the banner image of its article.

House GOP leaders advise members that there will be votes in House this week, and they will get 36 hours to return after Senate passes bill to reopen the govt. The House hasn’t voted since Sept 19 and has been in session just 22 days since July 1

I swear, if this was the reason my plane was diverted from DCA, I’m gonna be PISSED.

Srsly, politicians, is this what you need for your game of chicken with the US budget? Trapping hundreds people (incl. old ladies & toddlers!) on diverted airplanes in strange cities? @realDonaldTrump @HouseGOP @SenateGOP @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems

Now sitting in a grounded plane at the wrong airport with zero news about what they’re going to do with us or when.

Ok the US aviation system is officially FUBAR. The endless gov’t shutdown is doing more than just “slowing traffic down” — Reagan airport isn’t even letting flights land.

Thanks, government — I guess you’re making people feel the shutdown. @realDonaldTrump @WhiteHouse @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats @SenateGOP @SenateDems

Although if all you care about is *Spotify*'s average for a single stream, it's fine to drive away everybody who isn't willing to pay $38.50 month. But if getting 3x/stream for a tenth as many streams sounds good to you, I think you should stay away from advocacy based on math.

The structural problem with Twitter, reproduced exactly in all its clones, is that there is no shared experience. It’s only a side-effect of this that rebuilding ANY individual experience on a new clone is laborious.

@BennyChugg I think you might be saying this: when I want solid philosophical discussions, it’s hard to not find facts. Maybe?

Where's the startup that organizes podcast by topic? If I want to learn about eg "land value taxes" I want a service that serves me up a bunch of conversations touching on that, the more perspectives the better

@BennyChugg Also, omg you want to listen to podcasts about land value taxes haha

@BennyChugg For us audio types SEO is boring and hard + there’s no $ to get someone else to do it. Plus no accepted practices for episode titles and summaries. And transcriptions often suck for search because people don’t talk in discrete informational packets…

@MikeKTDot @CNN The problem is the grammar. He didn’t dive about 40 feet from an embankment. He dove from a 40-foot high embankment into shallow water.

@CNN So he died is shallow water 40ft from an embankment from injuries . I think there is a lot missing in this article lol

A man in eastern Texas who dove about 40 feet from an embankment into a shallow portion of a lake has died from his injuries, according to authorities. cnn.it/43dN9hg

@ContinuumTrek Friend, you gotta put the oxygen mask on yourself first, then worry about everyone else. ❤️

I may end up upsetting some folks but I hope I don’t. I’ve been going through some dysphoria so for a while I’ll be going by Conti again. I’m so sorry and I hope I’m not hurting anyone with this but it is about well being more than anything else.

What a couple of awkward sapiosexuals do on date night: Britbox & chill.

@DavidDeutschOxf @sensible_squire Why does everyone see ai as a big threat? Don’t we want to get out of the buggywhip business?

@sensible_squire No.

I used ChatGPT-4 to write two programs that I wanted IRL yesterday. Extremely useful. Saved ~80% of the time it would have taken me, and much more pleasantly.

@Jonahlobe I had a great kickstarter campaign, albeit a hundred thousand years ago in internet time. Lots of thoughts!

Researching how to Kickstart things and my goodness there's so much to learn. Any success stories you know? Any resources I'd be dumb not to check out?

Wow! Brett Hall is killing it! Another brilliant explanatory lesson on fundamental ideas about how to make sense of where we are. 🔥🔥

"Its, Bits, Qubits" A two-part video/podcast series on @DavidDeutschOxf's paper "It from Qubit" (2002). Here, in part 1, the scene is set largely around a discussion of John Wheeler's "It from Bit" thesis. History, physics, computation & ultimate reality: youtube.com/watch?v=TNDwN-…
