    What can we learn from communism’s success? what did communism do differently than intellectual movements are doing today, I.e. libertarianism, neoliberalism, rationalism etc.

    It’s easy to take for granted today that the general population is too simple to understand very complicated ideas, or perhaps just not interested. But I think the history of communism gives some hope that intellectual movements can become mainstream.

    it’s deeply strange to me that communism gained such widespread acceptance in the 20th century in certain countries among the general population despite it being such a intellectual ideology.

    I’m reading Moby Dick and I’m a bit confused how few people seem to notice that the entire book is dripping with sarcasm and irony. The chapter on Cetalogy is obviously making fun of 19th century natural science.

    Quick punctuation lesson: Hyphen (-): connects two words En-dash (–): indicates a range, e.g. 2–8 Em-dash (—): Ahhh, you seek to understand its ways, weary traveler. Nay, behold! This dash provides to you whichever function you most require. You need only listen as it whispers…

    Interesting. just took the political compass test again and compared it with my results from 1.5 years earlier, I have moved slightly more to the center in recent years. I can mostly attribute this to

    I had a large amount of screentime as a child And if I could go back in time and have a do-over, I would have liked even more screentime If I had replaced my entire school life with screentime, I sincerely think I would be 10x to 100x more powerful

    Make a conscious effort to find the worst people on any social media site and you can find anything you want. An actual attempt to characterize where extremists of either side of the political spectrum predominate would be interesting

    It’s a high bar to pass to beat prediction markets especially because I suspect that prediction markets rely heavily on ’s analysis, but it’s inexcusable that they are as dismissive as they are, given this better performance.

    I’m American, but it is still super annoying when data doesn’t make make clear that the participates only include americans. I can’t even imagine how annoying that would be for non-Americans.

    The only way I could see them winning is if they end up increasing movie sales which cinemas pay them for. But why would cinemas even consider that, supply and demand don’t change just because something is a subscription service.

    The more I think about it the more Movie Pass seems like a terrible idea. There is literally zero benefit from scaling because the average customer is unprofitable. Does anybody know why investors keep pouring money to prop up its corpse?

    Nothing says ‘cynical social media user who just wants to promote their brand’ like following 10k people in the hopes that they might follow you back.

    I think most disciplines are right to emphasize that definitions they create are technical and may or may not correspond to the way laymen use them every day. Many biologists, on the other hand, are happy to correct people who ‘incorrectly’ refer to mountain goats as goats.

    I love that Wikipedia has a page for lists of lists, ...which also points out that it is a list of lists of lists, and hence also a list of lists.

    Reading a book on my phone is a completely different experience. I can read it almost 24 hours a day, right as I go to sleep, walking, bus, waiting in line. Days can go by where I only think about what I’m reading.
