Everyone is telling me about the new LA coffee shop opening in my neighborhood and how they’d absolutely hate if someone invited them to go check it out…

My friend Kevin told me about this page of Unparalleled Misalignments by Ricki Heicklen and it will be one of those web pages I turn to for years and years and just chuckle with deep pleasure. TED Talk —> Edward Said is just 🤌🏼 rickiheicklen.com/unparalleled-m…

how i learned to love rationlists is to realize that a rationalist is just a normal person who denies they are a normal person and publicly narrates their slow realization that they are a normal person

a disney cruise is extremely outgroup for me but everyone said this made them cry and it did in fact make me cry. being a parent is so weird. i started crying on saturday because my baby made eye contact with a goofy dog and started laughing. i was just so happy he was happy.

I'm halfway through reading Wuthering Heights and it's kind of like "what if the guy from Crime & Punishment was the love of your life"

I’m cautious about appearing sexist but I really think women should get off the apps and return to dating men their fathers found on the streets of Liverpool and brought home to raise as their older brother

If AI takes my job I’m gonna retrain as a plumber and make a TikTok account called “da quirked up plumber” where I explain the discourse of the day using plumbing analogies while plumbing

Conspicuously few “lobotomize me” girlies coming out in support of AI now that the evidence is irrefutable that it makes you dumber… which side are you on anyway…

One of the best compliments I ever got was from a girl in my MFA program who was from NYC and said in a really bored neutral tone like it didn’t mean shit to her one way or another “I think you’re probably gonna write a book at some point that people think is really important.”

@nabeelqu i feel like this is an interestingly grounded and actually very philosophically helpful response to that feeling x.com/getjonwithit/s…

Like @davidbessis and others, I think that Hinton is wrong. To explain why, let me tell you a brief story. About a decade ago, in 2017, I developed an automated theorem-proving framework that was ultimately integrated into Mathematica (see: youtube.com/watch?v=mMaid2…) (1/15)
