wait it only has 95m views on YouTube? honestly that seems to me like evidence of how siloed it is; I feel like that's a very low number for how many radio/streaming views it has feels like the all time billboard record should have more views than the average Mr Beast video

A 2x2 diagram, with "Careful Reasoning - Confusing Bullshit" on the X axis, and "Stuff that matters - Stuff that doesn't matter" on the Y axis.

Analytic philosophy is in the bottom left: both "Careful Reasoning" and "Stuff that doesn't matter", while continental philosophy is in the top right: "Stuff that matters" and "Confusing bullshit".

The thing that's being suppressed isn't really the party, which can adapt to the terrain. It's the voters in New York and California, and their cosmopolitan liberal beliefs

Why employ someone taking below market salary to have the benefits and stability of public sector employment when you could fire them, pay a consultant 3x as much for the same work, then have to rehire the employee with back pay bc their firing didn't follow legal procedure? #DOGE

there really isn't a coherent position between "you should vote for the Democrat" and "you should vote for the Republican". if you think the Democrat has to lose to deter a future anti-trans shift, fine, but tell people to vote R! if you want them to make their voices heard, why stop halfway?

It's bad that the central rule of US diplomacy is now "sometimes the president just says crap, and sometimes he justs post crap, and neither is the official position of the United States, except sometimes seriously but not literally, or sometimes literally, or sometimes it is. You'll find out."

I get these people are bewormed subnormals but “the state gets to regulate to prevent communicable disease” is so core to the Framers’ understanding of of the function of the state it gets used in the early Commerce Clause cases as an example of a thing that obviously falls under the police power

As @mtsw.bsky.social is frequently saying, the reason Mamdani comes off as “authentic” here is that he’s relentlessly practiced the skill of speaking to camera, and also has a very sophisticated and professional team (editor, photographer, etc) that work very hard to make things seem effortless

The single most impactful social/cultural development over the last decade (that virtually no retrospectives of "woke" have engaged in) is the new elite consensus that moral judgement is itself inherently illegitimate.

Top Two (like Top Four and RCV in single-seat districts) is electoral reform for people who kinda vaguely want electoral reform, but don't understand how to really get change. It is kind of like deciding to "take a risk" and order vanilla with chocolate swirls instead of just plain vanilla.

How the Imperial Valley works, as a region, is so fucking insane that it's another case where if you straightforwardly describe it to people they will not believe you. It also is the poorest place in California, has the highest unemployment rate in the USA and some of the worst air pollution!

For a while, a common dilemma in video game RPGs was "Who do you support, the problematic hypernationalists or the rootless cosmopolitan hypocrites?" and I think it aged poorly seeing how the past decade has pretty conclusively proven the correct answer is "sign up with RCH and get over yourself."

when you work in manufacturing (i do), you have to get a sense of "line guy that's identified a real problem with the process that the engineers missed" and "line guy that's a fucking know-it-all sonofabitch who doesn't wanna use new stuff". trump does not have this skill www.wsj.com/us-news/trum...

President Trump has directed the Navy to tear out a complex system for launching jet fighters from its aircraft carriers and instead go back to using steam catapults, a move Navy officials have fought for years and will likely cost billions of dollars.

U.S. officials say Trump signed a national security memorandum Thursday directing the change, which would involve removing the electromagnetic catapult system used by the ships in the Gerald R. Ford class of carriers.

By doing so, Trump is making good on a promise he made almost 10 years ago to go back to the steam system after hearing a sailor praise it while visiting a ship during his first term.

But since Trump said in an interview with Time in 2017 that he told the Navy to go back to “goddamn steam,” top Navy and industry leaders have resisted the move because of the enormous expense to tear out such a complex system that was integral to the design of the Ford class.

The move directs the Navy to redesign the fourth ship in the class—to be named the Doris Miller—and all remaining ships. The first three ships—the Ford, John F. Kennedy and Enterprise—will retain the electromagnetic system.
