The ‘paradox of tolerance’ is not a paradox, any moreso than “my car requires gas to run but if I drive too much I run out of gas” is a paradox. Abstract machines are still machines. Society is a machine for living in, & if you break it living gets harder.

If you live in Mad Max: The Road Warrior, bitcoin makes a lot of sense. If you live in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, it makes a lot less sense. If you live in Fury Road, it makes no sense at all.

I would watch the living fuck out of ‘Cheerleader Samurai vs Megaton Shark’ tbh

Live every day like you are a background character in Mob Psycho 100.

Live every day like you are a credited but unnamed character who appears in exactly one scene in a David Lynch movie.

Band name of the day: how to grow living skyscrapers

Bad idea of the day: A shuffle-novel in the form of an oracle deck, with strange or absurd predictions & the premise that it is describing the life of the parallel version of the reader who lives in the world described by the deck.

Spreadsheets are dead, long live reactive programming environments! : Stencila https://stenci.la/blog/introducing-sheets/

I’d love to see Trigger do a Geobreeders series. The premise had so much potential: a multi-generational war between chuunibyos with computer sigils and shape-shifting cats made of radio waves who live on the internet.

What are the aethyric ramifications of a live Joe Bob marathon on the solstice? I imagine it must be really fucking up the ley lines.

Good design for developers & good design for non-developers don’t operate by different rules. Devs aren’t happy needing to memorize manuals, and end users can & will learn things if it makes their lives easier.

Bad idea of the day: live your life as though it is a bayesian poisoning attack on the basilisk

What universe does Marc Andressen live in, to call a group of wealthy upwardly-mobile careerists ‘extremely left-wing’ for voting Clinton? (Don’t answer that.)

The project I’m working on went “live” this morning. Even though most us developers think we shouldn’t have.

Hot take: if you can ‘vote with your wallet’ that means you live in an aristocratic oligarchy, because some people inherit large numbers of extra votes & other people start out with negative votes.

A house is a machine for living in, & a haunted house (after Jackson) is a machine for dreaming in. Hill House is architectural LSD: it reflects psychic energy inward, causing people to haunt themselves.

Hey what’s the likelyhood that the world we live in now is a punishment from the Basilisk?

We live in a world where both Guy Madden’s The Heart of the World & Matmos’s Ultimate Care II exist, and that has to count for something.

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org It’s not really live. Check my ‘File Storage’ on gopher :-)

Bursting stovepipes creates an intellectual explosion, but it’s short-lived. You don’t get scenius without tribes, but you also don’t get it without potlatches. The periodic nature of the potlatch is necessary, & so is the discarding of material work.

Bad idea of the day: Expand citizenship: you are automatically a citizen of a state if you were born there, if either parent is from there, if you have lived there for more than 6 months, or if you own or rent any land there.

Why didn’t Carnival of Souls spawn a whole genre the way Night of the Living Dead did?

There are live performances of Ultimate Care II, Matmos’s washing machine album, apparently.

Javascript is a just-OK language saddled with the world’s worst graphics toolkit: three distinct languages, each with specs so large that nobody has written a new implementation in 20 years, for live-editing a rich tech document to make it resemble a canvas, in ways that are not portable between the 3 implementations or minor revisions of the same implementation.

a myth is a machine for living in

Knowing that half of The Buggles became The Art of Noise makes me feel like maybe we do live in a comprehensible and ordered universe. But then I look at literally anything else.
