No standstill?
When I reflect on myself like this, I have long had the impression that I am a person who cannot live at a standstill. I always need a topic that keeps me busy, a thing in my life that I can optimize or at least a frequently changing topic that I can dive into. ⌘ Read more

short story about a cancer researcher who starts murdering patients in the control group because he expects there to be a null result, but he always puts on a mask that prevents him from directly seeing the person he kills—double blind
Lots of personal preference, but I disagree on Acme: it’s far and away my preferred editor on unix-like systems, too.
that is to say, both might be relevant for personal effectiveness, and both are tangentially related to big problems (how do we bring about good states of consciousness & how does society organise sexuality so that everything works ~well), but not much beyond that.
i think posting about personal meditation practice on the EA forum is bad, because personal meditation practice is as relevant to EA as advice on seducing people.
that’s why cold approach in person works so well, or why programming is easier than mathematics, or why you should build explicit models as quickly as possible (even if they’re shit), or why meditation is so hard

@prologic@twtxt.net I am seeing a problem in which not-so-active users, such as myself, are ending up having a blank “Recent twts from…” under their profiles because, I assume, the cache long expired. What can be done about it? Business personalities such as myself can’t be around here that often! Could something be implemented so that, say, the last 10 or 20 twts are always visible under one’s profile? Neep-gren!

Peter Saint-Andre: MLK and Personalism
In my recent post on idealism and identity, I mentioned my attraction to the philosophy of personalism, with its emphasis on human dignity. It is perhaps a little-known fact that Martin Luther King, Jr., was greatly influenced by that very philosophy. Early in life he ventured north to study at Boston University, then the center of personalist thought in America, where he completed his doctorate under theologian Edgar Sheffield Brightman. We can see the deep influence of personalism on King’s … ⌘ Read more
Finding our Nerdy Happy Place
I’d like to take a step back from my regular Mega-Nerdy ™ articles for just a moment… To talk about things from a more personal point of view. Today was a rough day in the news.

Peter Saint-Andre: Idealism and Identity
Personal identity is a deep, and deeply meaningful, subject: at some level, what’s more important than what makes you you? Paradoxically, throughout history and across cultures, often personal identity has been a social construct, tied closely to tribe, clan, family, ethnic group, race, caste, class, societal role, and so on - usually in opposition to some Other (“I’m a Capulet, not a Montague”, “I’m a proletarian, not a bourgeois”, etc.)…. ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net I would like to see “header” lines in twtxt.txt parsed.
Personally I started looking at some twtxt files with curl and saw information about avatar images.
I assumed that to be sort of standard and mentioned my avatar image in my stackeffect.txt. But it was not “avatar.png”.
Later I saw in logfiles that the info was totally ignored and instead several “avatar.png” locations were tried by the pulling side.
When information in “header” of twtxt file were respected one could easily change avatar file to one with a new filename and there would be no caching problem.

Obscenities are symptoms of weak minds.
Over the past few years, I made the decision to totally cut obscenities out from my speech. You might actually be able to find recordings of me cursing four or five years ago, but as of now, I really stand by my decision.
