The task of the 2020s, to make up for the atomized 2010s, is to engineer tangible, embodied communities in such a way that takes the full weight and spread of the simulacrum’s pull into account.

This is an importance piece which emphasizes both the important of manners, public and private, as well as knowledge of when they stop working.https://twitter.com/palladiummag/status/1220485736140423168 …

Wolf Tivy and Pasha Kamyshev discuss Pasha’s latest article on AI grand strategy, and the deeper foundations of the problem: we are building digital totalitarianism, but we don’t know how to reconcile that with creating a good society.https://palladiummag.com/2020/01/09/palladium-podcast-22-ai-grand-strategy-and-digital-totalitarianism/ …

"innate" and "mimetic" are views of two blind men holding an elephant. A woman has an "innate" desire for a man, however this is partially instantiated by other women's desire. "Innate" is a class, "mimetic" is an object.https://twitter.com/Meaningness/status/1213556820825915393 …

10. And lastly: Scapegoating is a massive force that is sometimes all that brings certain groups together (always temporarily). When it happens, the group doing it, of course, views it as legitimate, but the logical cracks in this legitimacy leads to pervasive mental errors.

9. Girard in "Things" spends some pages on homosexuality. He answers are so far outside the Overton Window, people reading him don't know they exist.

8. Girard's theory is good precisely because it attempts to be a Theory of Everything. We need more Theories of Everything that build a worldview and not half-hearted critiques with no alternative explanations of causality actually works.

7. Borrowed desires are not "news". Trying to elevate them to a fundamental cause might be news in the current culture (although Buddhists talked about "reducing desire" for a while.

6. If someone thinks Zooey Deschanel is more attractive than Ann Coulter, what's at play is not just desire, but also hate. That someone probably hates Ann, because ..... well I am going to guess that their friends hate her... but you knew i was going to say that.

5. The piece reads like a typical Kegan Stage 4 unwilling to understand Stage 5. The idea that the Individual's values are not born out of some aether, but are a product of group conflict and mimetic desire / anti-desire is true, but uncomfortable for an atomic modern worldview.

4. On a meta-point, an inability to answer this question should not be a knock on a theory or an automatic fall back to "individual". Individuals are important, but are also a product of causal processes that create them. This fact is deeply uncomfortable.

3. But then, who was the meta-model who told me to pick the second model rather than the first model for advice on what to watch? And who was the meta-meta-model—let’s call it a super-model—who told me to trust that meta-model rather than some other meta-model Answer: The State.

2. While reading Girard, it was obvious to me that the formula wasn't desire -> violence (otherwise violence would be pervasive), but rather mimetic desire + scarcity + absence of structured justice -> violence

1. Noooo! Read Girard proper, he's good an the linked piece is not. The piece gets the four stages roughly right, but spends too much time on "all desire is mimetic". It's not that all desire is mimetic, it's just that mimetic desire underlies all culture and social functions.https://twitter.com/Meaningness/status/1213547494547714048 …

Outside of code gen, FP in commercial programming languages can't win on performance compared to Rust et al. Stated differently: performance isn't the killer app for functional programming. You know what could be? Developer productivity. That's where to double down.

Me trying to desig a stablecoin: I don't get how money works Watching other people design crypto: lots of people don't get how money works. Reading Palladium: If people got how it works, it would stop working.https://twitter.com/alifeofmovement/status/1211714203154821121 …

Things that may force your software to change: old crypto being broken, transition to IPv6, upgrade to Python 3, new hardware / OS, pieces of it becoming illegal. Immortal math libraries are desirable, immortal products are extremely tricky.https://twitter.com/Jonathan_Blow/status/1207565033791770624 …
