    A new translation by Damion Searls of Weber's two most famous lectures, "Science as a Vocation" and "Politics as a Vocation", edited and with an introduction by Paul Reitter and Chad Wellmon. Looks great.

    To what extent a mouse's understanding of freedom predicates its death I do not know. Perhaps this is a lesson in mouse virtue and overcoming desire. Perhaps, if mice know death is inevitable, they prefer to die with full stomachs.

    On a much cooler note - one of my 10x great-grandfathers, also a Thomas Carter, but unrelated to the slaveowner, was Rev. Thomas Carter of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the first man ordained in America. So that's neat.

    One of my 8x great-grandfathers was a Cpt. Thomas Carter of Virginia who, in the year 1700, left to his wife "the home plantation, a negro man named Dick, his great table, and one third of his personal property". Jokes on him though, by the 1930s those Carters were totally broke

    and I couldn't very well go and ask her to repeat the last five minutes of instructions, so I spent half an hour clicking on various words as they appeared on the screen without knowing why I was doing so. Words like "mother", "lion", and "tree". and then it was over

    Took part in a research project being done by a Psych grad student one time and she spent a good five minutes explaining to me what I was going to be doing and how to do it ... then I went into another room, sat down at a computer, and couldn't remember a single word she had said

    Writing without jargon is a good skill, but jargon exists for a reason; we don’t just develop specialized vocabularies to sound clever; it is to express technical ideas concisely, and to coordinate our usage around particular agreed upon meanings.

    In kindergarten a girl came up to me and asked "Are you Gage?", and I said "Yes", and then we played tag. I did not know her name and I never learned it. I think about this a lot.

    When I say 'faster' I mean it hits its breaking point earlier, the window of 11 years hits, but then it's still, barring very possible self-perpetuating feedback loops, a ~100 of slow decline. Topsoil depletion could be accelerated to completion by 2050 at current rates.

    I've debated whether to share what happened the night I went back to Dulles Airport to help two travelers arriving from Iran who were detained for nearly 7 hours. Retaliation is certainly something I've considered as an immigration lawyer, but these days it just seems so real.
