Delightful story of a club that collected pictures of a new type of cloud.

He can't win, right?

Seems obvious now, but they got most of these for a song.

Very interesting. Dieting makes weight gain worse by many indicators.

A brief background on This Is Fine dog.

Us not them seems to be a big factor.

Hah. I think Tolkien won.

Obviously a pro-Apple briefing but a nice overview of how iOS secures your data as best it can.

Fembots as metaphor for exploitation of women's labor.

There are layers here that it's Choctaw and Housa people being resettled as their home has been destroyed.

So something else matters more than just calories, but we don't know what.

Not surprising internationalization is the problem.

Not surprising, but also extra sad. They're already marginalized a lot.

Lots of interesting threads here on feedback between author and audience.

Curioser and curioser. The private key evidence is good, but it's odd he isn't doing more to prove it, or dispel the other doubts.

"The only way to maintain weight loss is to be hungry all the time." Fascinating anecdata on weight loss vs. weight maintenance, hunger, and metabolism. Needs more study.

Yup. I think some of it is history class erasure of racism after CRA, and some of it is a dark populism fed by conservative media to serve their electoral interests.

The direction of the two parties seems accurately described here.

I like the comparison to 1950 data — shows he nostalgia factor for an image of America that no longer exists.

Amazing how long he went without being caught or punished.

Great point that controlling fertility is way more impactful, but gets discounted because women do it.

Very interesting overview. I had heard of MINCOME; glad to see more experiments with better design are in the works. It seems necessary to me to address it before near complete automation.

Interesting commentary on everything being driven by the brand engine, and creative work mostly fleeing to television.

I love that games like NetHack are still going strong, and still in C, all these years later.

Maybe symbolic today, but hopeful for the future.

I feel this more as a parent who doesn't get much time to himself.

The fact that I never heard about this is an example of how classist tech and privacy reporting can be. The article feels a bit unfinished... I feel like there are larger implications that they almost get to.

Very interesting analysis of Captain America as the ideal modern man in a way that has nothing to so with his strength.

Fascinating, but unsurprising, example of unconscious bias in services. Effective redlining from historical racial income disparities.

Interesting take on which modern parties are claiming which historical figures, built largely on top of pop culture interest.
