I predict we are only right now seeing 10% of the force that will be unleashed when a famous person talks about having POCD.

>Ice wall >Inner earth At least these people used to be vaguely coherent.

Hey, my name is in the Epstein files! I've told the story before, but should probably re-up. TLDR: never met the guy, never took (or asked for) any money from him, never visited the island. I was invited to the island, and said no. It's not that hard to just say no.

People keep saying Adam Tooze is prolific, but he’s nothing compared to Michael Mann, a climate scientist who wrote a very influential series of books on power sources and directed a great film about heat.

The vegan equivalent to this is cans of beans. I have eaten three cans of beans in the past week.

Swear to God I would not be surprised if some literal telegrams turn up in which a time-traveling Epstein is wiring Thomas Midgley, Jr. about HV U CNSIDRD ADDING LED TO GAS STOP ALSO= BEEN THNKNG ABT COOLING TLK ABT ITNEXT TIME I SEE U STOP

The CIA is currently planning to launch a color revolution against God and replace him with a pro-western leader. Stay informed, comrades.

Rationalist Civil war incoming soon?

The Keynes vs Hayek rap battle is in the Epstein Files

Imagining some English major getting Grover Furr for their Medieval literature class and deciding to look up their professor’s academic work to see what they’re in for.

It's so weird that Chick-fil-A has an entire advertising campaign that depicts cows as class traitors.

Completely unsurprising that this would happen again.

Every once and a while I remember that this is the cover image Penguin chose for their edition of Theory of the Leisure class and I start laughing.

"Keynes DESTROYS National Association of Manufacturers with FACTS and LOGIC"

We are Jerome Powell. We carry the flame. We fight for Fed Independence. We honor his name.

The main thing to understand about the American libertarian movement is that there are essentially two types of libertarians. This is completely unsurprising to anyone who is familiar with the type that isn't just an edgy republican.

I log off for a few hours and now Trump is bombing a city.

From my conversations with them LLMs seem to be more bearish on LLM capabilities than ML researchers.

Ontological Proof of Santa: p1: No being more Jolly than Santa can be imagined p2: existence makes one more Jolly than nonexistence p3: a Santa that exists only in the mind is therefore less Jolly than one that exists in reality

Is this good or bad? anisota.net/harvest/

So funny whenever you get to Ellsberg’s paradox in a decision theory class, and you have to be like, ye, that Daniel Ellsberg.

My favorite Cremieux moment was when he was praising all hell out of this paper he "recently read." Seems interesting, let's check who wrote it, oh...

Interesting how it uses longtermist utilitarian rhetoric to justify saving Elon.

Incredible stuff

We honestly need another Scopes trial because the first one humiliated the creationists on national radio so hard they didn't even try again until the 2000s.

I wonder if people will be more willing to mention the Bosnia and Cambodia thing now that this is out in the open.

Chomsky is pretty unlucky he didn't die before the Epstein thing came out because now his eulogies are going to be real awkward.

This post made me realize that Eliezer, despite being considered an arch-utilitarian for writing torture vs dust specks. Is just straight up a Kantian at the end of the day. He literally would rather it be more likely for an AI to kill everyone (in his worldview) than to lie.

I will not be reading this article Substack.

P and Q and Bob and Alice should go on a double date.

I think some of the confusion that non-Americans get about our two party system is that the main reason it's so difficult to get a third party off the ground is that the Republican and Democratic parties are not like most political parties, they're deeply entrenched cultural institutions.

This is your last chance to dodge a block

In ten years kids will believe this photo was AI and that this didn’t actually happen.

Hahahaha how the fuck are qualia deniers real hahahaha just open your eyes like open them

There is a scene in Red Dawn (Reagan era slop film but still kinda fun) where when the Communists invade America they're able to quash resistance by using registration records to confiscate the guns, and that kind of insane fantasy is why there is opposition to something this banal.

Who would be the funniest American political figure to make a Hamilton parody musical about?

Now we need one with Wittgenstein and Kripkensteinism vs Quietism to complete the trilogy.

Robin Hanson finally got what he wanted I guess

oop

I am Nick Land’s Babylonian oil demon ama

Kanye, Elon, Trump: an eternal golden braid.

I knew Peter Thiel, with all his bizarre esotericism and incoherent ideology reminded me of someone, but it just hit me the other day. He's LaRouche. He's a billionaire LaRouche.

After Fetterman and now Planter it’s pretty obvious that the “tough red blooded progressive guy” gimmick is a red flag.

"Grok" is a fun word that occupies a unique niche and I'm sad that Elon ruined it for all of us.

I genuinely cannot think of anything witty or insightful to say about that Trump shitting out of a plane AI video. How is this real.

Bayes theorem needs to be treated like the Zohar where you have to demonstrate a certain amount of knowledge to be able to learn it.

People who have deeply thought about the ethics of eternal hell and still consider it just should be treated as some of the most evil people in society. This fact is independent of whether or not you believe in God or an afterlife.
