My dear, religion is like a penis. It’s a perfectly fine thing to have and take pride in, but when one takes it out and waves it in front of my face we have a problem. – Maggie Smith I’ve gone from passive, “live and let live” non-theist to angry anti-theist in a very short time. Why? You can’t see me, but I’m...
You may be familiar with the phrase "The purpose of a system is what it does". It is a useful way to re-evaluate things that exist. To quote Wikipedia: [It] is generally invoked to counter the notion that the purpose of a system can or should be read from the intentions of those who design, operate, or promote it....
1.Yes, actually, it is important to write properly, i.e. with words that mean the things you're trying to say, with punctuation used as punctuation and not decoration, with sufficiently correct grammar that the reader doesn't have to put in serious effort to understand what you're even on about, etc. If you are...
I have a little pet theory that software drives people insane. Not in the "wash your hands every thirty minutes like Howard Hughes" kind of way, but more so in how the conditions surrounding software seem remarkably effective at making otherwise normal people lose their sense of proportion.

I this post a few days ago and wanted to add some thoughts. The basic premise of the post is pretty simple and (in my opinion) uncontroversial: Why are boomers so susceptible to disinformation?

Some contextThe last four decades have been characterized by searching. From a young age, I was obsessed with the idea of Truth with a capital-T, a grasp of things as they really are, the fundamental and the ineffable. I left no stone unturned. I mined the darkest depths of poetry, literature, and philosophy. I...
This morning as I sit on my desk, I caved in and opened Reddit. It sucked in 20 mins of my morning time without even realizing what I was doing. In those 20 mins I felt these emotions in the exact order: fear, envy, outrage, excitement, fear and repeat. This went on for whole 20 mins. The world is excited about the...
it's my birthday today, and while it's not going that great, the cherry on top is a message i received from a relative of mine. it's a video containing an ai-generated character with my face, a HAPPY BIRTHDAY text plastered on top and a random person singing happy birthday. i know it's supposed to be a nice gesture...
I remember times when I was downloading a full discography of my favourite artists a day. I was poor, streaming was not really a thing for another couple of years and the stuff was out there available. The Pirate Bay was still around (or one of its proxies, at times possibly even run by the FBI). Now we have...
