i don't like that of all the people who could have combined multiple technologies that started existing in 2009 and the 2010s to make a VR headset that got funding it was someone like him.

I’m not sure what people consider the core years of millennial optimism. But as a dead-middle millennial (born at the end of ‘88), I’d say the stretch from 2008 to 2016 is it. And I’d say 2011-2014 is the beating, glowing heart of that stretch.

I hope that Hochul remembers this when she wins by double digits anyway, and goes for full automation on the IBX

My favourite bit of reporting for this story was finding out ISS astronauts were growing little gardens in their quarters in secret—and only this summer have NASA explicitly permitted them to do this. Astronauts are, in many ways, just regular, hopeful humans. 🌱

Yeah I think one way to understand the LLM + Lean moment is that it’s the first time since the early French probability theorists maybe that cutting edge pure math is experimental, and that’s very weird.

Vanderbilt sub-report on Music Studies is out. TLDR: it is utter garbage. The long-awaited evidence of our “deterioration in scholarly standards” is...: "the shift from...central areas of music scholarship [Western art music] to the more peripheral areas". www.vanderbilt.edu/principles/s...

This sort of stuff makes me want to scream. The cost bloat is in *capital projects* not in operations! Capital projects are bloated because of a complex web of balkanized permitting processes, the byzantine and inconsistent nature of federal grant funding, and outsourcing talent to consultants.
