iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

this surprised me tbh. i had assumed that if the president/secdef told an aircraft carrier to go somewhere, that there was a whole machine in the navy to make sure it maintained standards and that it would be rotated after a normal amount of time. crazy how that’s simply not guaranteed

genuine question from a non expert: isn’t this basically the same as means-testing? i was under the impression that means testing is pretty inefficient and tends to just make the resources it’s directed towards get tied up in bureaucracy rather than the intended outcome?

what are you talking about? bluetooth is by and large extremely reliable these days. even between products from different manufacturers. my iphone talks very nicely with my sony headphones and my fosi amp for my home speakers.

this feels related to the difference between politicians with positive points of view who try to persuade the public to these views, against those who reflect the views of the public and try to implement them.

fortunately, gps is unlikely to ever be affected by space junk, as those satellites are in a much higher orbit that is much more difficult to fill up.

holy shit first i’m hearing of this. according to wikipedia this is consistent with a mini ice age that occurred in the 13th century. the volcano is thought to have released 10 cubic kilometers of material into the air. that’s insane!!

yeah this makes sense to me; the volume and frequency with which i hear it has made me wonder if there’s more to it than that, but i do always kind of wonder what the next imagined step is after the nonviolence fails

shelomo dov @deich.bsky.social · 02/02/2026

what do you make of the theory i’ve seen in various places that nonviolence really only works when it has a violent wing to back it up? “how to blow up a pipeline” argues that many successful nonviolent movements had such an arrangement

I don't mean to be divisive but to call it a computer's "natural scrolling"--which mimics the despicable Phone--and then to make it default? An outrage. Swiping down should scroll down, as was true since the dawn of time on the noble mouse scroll wheel

which is to say, if we started diluting the traditions of say rosh hashana to make it more recognizable to a secular new year, i do think (or at least hope) there would be more introspection about what the point was

i always thought this was because hanukkah wasn’t a high holiday, it was more robust to gentile co-option, especially as american jewry quickly tried to assimilate post war. it was a nonthreatening bit of jewishness that could be shaped to the christian mold without losing too much of the “point”
