Agree w wife on this. I love gray tribe. They're my people. ...but I'm far far far from confident how many of them could take a punch to the face, a second punch, get knocked down, get kicked ... and still stand up and go back for more. https://twitter.com/LibertyFarmNH/status/1298309554426585089 …

2/ I have a lot more in common with a Less Wrong reading sperg who works a day job at Amazon than I do with a tobacco chewing tattooed Texas rougneck working the oil fields. ...but I'd rather have that second guy at my back in a fist fight.

Todd Barrett @thepiclordReplying to @MorlockPIdeally my favorite Rationalist Intellectual Essay Writer has already shot the guy w/2x4 from 20+ yards away rather than letting him close range. Rationalists should 'win' and all that. But yeah, once the fight starts, adrenaline dump, pain, and lack of muscle memory ruin you.1 reply 0 retweets 9 likesShow this thread -

5/ Yep, I'm not remotely saying that there's not overlap. I had a good conversation w the carpenter who redid my kitchen about Linux vs Windows (his brother has a PhD in CS and his assistant has a PhD is oceanography)https://twitter.com/tigerboy74u/status/1298314457613889538 …

Snake @tigerboy74uReplying to @MorlockPYou know, you’re not entirely wrong, but it’s been my experience that there’s a lot more overlap than people think.
