I was today years old when I found out that the Mandarin that the American English expression "gung ho" is based off of literally means "industrial cooperative". I am passing this information along in the hopes that someone will write the thinkpiece that this deserves en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gung_ho

If you haven’t heard, @trufelman.bsky.social and I started a new podcast about fashion and philosophy. Each month, we read canonical text — Voltaire, Rousseau, Hegel — and talk about how the author's ideas help us understand why we dress the way we do.

stopped playing scrabble to look outside, accidentally saw a rothko

I mean, it looks like a Rothko. It's a portrait of a night scene looking out across a river to some houses on the other side. The sky is dark blue, turning into a dark orange gradient about two thirds down where it meets the horizon. Under that, there's a dark river.

Ideas for making up words: Borrow from another language! Combine prefixes/suffixes! Make it a new part of speech (verb a noun!) Stack or smush words together! Make a lil wordplay! Acronym! Shorten an existing word! Use an old word newly! Just throw together something that feels good!

Here's the program! Some of my fave moments: empirical data on how readers approach autofiction, how literature & our perception of time shape each other, how LLM is just the latest instantiation of collective labor, and how fictionality might be a gradable concept!

We can owe others morally good treatment, but what do we owe to ourselves? And is it even possible to owe something to yourself? Yes, argues the philosopher Thaddeus Metz in this Essay interweaving different strands of African philosophical traditions

the people who want you to believe that generative AI can paint like Picasso tend to gloss over the fact that Picasso didn’t have hundreds of Picassos to learn from. He had to make something new, which a model trained on old art is definitionally incapable of doing.
