I didn’t even know this was a thing. Texture vs. taste: have you ever disliked a food purely because of how it feels, even though the flavor was actually good?

And again, the contrast is beautiful. 😍 A 41-year-old, 8-time WDC Lewis Hamilton still delivering, while the FIA-helped “gEnErAtIoNaL tALEnT” is exposed. 😭😭😭 The Belgian kid is MASSIVELY OVERRATED!!! #F1 #LewisHamilton #MaxVerstappen #ChineseGP

is there something like the opposite of autism where you're exceptionally skilled at reading people and love being around them, and instead of perceiving the world through categories you see it all as divinely connected and full of signs everywhere

There is a number attached to beef that gets cited at dinner parties. 15,000 litres per kilogram. Almonds: 3,500. Avocados: 2,000. Pistachios: 11,400. Beef, the headline says, uses more than all of them. Here is the thing nobody mentions at the dinner party. Water has categories. Green water: rainfall. Falls on a field, absorbed by vegetation, returned to the atmosphere. Recycled. Continuous. Not extracted from anything. The rain was going to fall on that land whether Gerald was on it or not. Attributing it to the animal standing in it is an accounting choice, not a physical reality. Blue water: groundwater and surface water. Pumped from rivers, drawn from aquifers. The water that, when it's gone, is gone. The water that is sinking the San Joaquin Valley. The number that matters. Gerald's blue water per kilogram of beef: approximately 50 litres. Californian almonds: 3,785 litres. Per kilogram. From an aquifer that took centuries to accumulate. The 15,000 litre figure is almost entirely green water. British rainfall, on British fields, falling regardless of Gerald. The dinner party number is the wrong number. The right number is 50 litres, and the almonds aren't close.

@DavidLeavitt I’d play the Cheers MTG set. “Norm!” As commander will be tons of fun. Same for the “Cliff Clavin, all-knowing”. Can’t wait tbh

Every F1 fan wants Hamilton to win the WDC title. If you don’t, then you aren’t a real F1 fan.

800,000 human brain cells, floating in a dish, have never had a body. Never seen light. Never felt anything. And they just learned to play a video game. That's not a metaphor. That's literally what happened. These neurons are alive. They fire. They adapt. They get better at DOOM over time, which means something inside that petri dish is changing in response to failure. Scientists call it "goal-directed learning." There is no cleaner definition of that phrase than "it kept trying until it got better." The cells have no survival instinct, no reward system, no reason to improve. They just do. The part nobody's talking about: researchers have to convert the game's visuals into electrical pulses the neurons can interpret. Which means those cells are perceiving something. Not seeing it the way you do. But processing a version of a world that doesn't exist, inside a container that was never meant to think. The Turing Test was about machines fooling humans. Nobody wrote the test for this.
