why do the datacenters use so much water? a common misconception is that it's creating the clones. actually the creation process they've made relatively efficient. but storage is still water-intensive.

Only speaking personally, but today’s execution isn’t scaring me from protecting our neighbors, as some suggest is ICE’s goal. Nor am I angry with incandescent rage, in that I know such rage is unhelpful. Rather, I feel like it has forced me to truly accept that the same fate might befall me.

The persistence of the belief that Rs are good on economy, a proposition which has been observably false for the lifetime of most Americans, is the kind of thing that demands entire new fields, like we are pre-Newtonian in understanding how people construct their social reality.

The early books promise that any character backed into an impossible corner will simply die. This promise cannot be kept.

I put the phone aside to spend time with a friend. A few hours pass. I pick the phone up. Will there be a murder, I wonder. Will there be a war.

I used to think that the height of political sophistication was a nuanced grasp of policy. I no longer feel this way.

Other papers have modeled this more and concluded that without non-selfish high performers, you basically always converge towards mutual mediocrity -- low performers dominating while allowing one another to suck shit, while targeting high performers.

Beyond that, most people want efficient *user experience*, ie no lines at the DMV. Efficient in the minimal expenditure sense is precisely the opposite

Why would anyone attend an expensive college that would retroactively take away your degree, after you were long gone, to satisfy the whim of a powerful person
