That’s pretty interesting I guess but I just don’t want to read white trivia on a blue background. Sorry. Feels like I’m at work.

Wow, what a difference a year makes. Checking out the @skeetsapp.com iPad client and it is awesome so far. So nice to have an actual native iPad app for Bluesky. Thanks @seabass.bsky.social!

Cool paper on political sorting in the US labor market, based on an inventive effort merging LinkedIn profiles with public voter files to create a panel of 35 million Americans with information about employment and political party registration. sahilchinoy.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/chinoy_polit...

When you optimize for short term goals, you can destroy the long term vision. Complex systems emerge to regulate lower level components in service of higher level goals.

I see a lot of you still sharing posts from the obviously fake Count Dracula account, so please be aware: - the real Count would never post during daylight hours in Romania - his full given name is Vlad, not Vladimir - he does not actually say “blah” and would never write it out in a post

Jay: I think social media should be basically common infrastructure that society gets to use and evolve it as society evolves, building a more democratic form of social media to reflect a democratic society.

1. Every user should own their own handle, so they're not living at the pleasure of their namespace overlord. 2. Domains are the only pragmatic solution, and they're already sufficiently decentralized and available now. HT @ansh.bsky.team

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation is not the same as the Gulf Stream and there is absolutely no chance the Gulf Stream will "collapse". If the AMOC collapses, that's a big problem for Greenland and the Norwegian Sea. 🧪

Being vertebrates biases us to thinking that organisms are more "unitary" than they are. The rest of the animal kingdom exploits the malleability of life way more than we're used to, and for us that induces body horror.

Your emotions are there for your survival and the survival of your loved ones. Anything beyond that is subject to profound manipulation.

Our moral emotions don’t serve us very well when it comes to big picture issues. We should have been iterating on nuclear power generation for decades. Our assessment of risk was driven by emotion, we lost sight of the big picture, and now we are paying the price.
