he also has to name some examples of when it isn't amore i think. or else a charge of vacuity could be made
-
-
what if it's a joint effort by the inhabitants of different planets. we aren't told
-
plutonians clear the near pluto half of pluto's orbit, we clear the other half. what then. is it a planet then or not. checkmate IAU
-
is a simulated planet on a computer a planet. a literal reading of the official definition would suggest no maybe. but then
-
but then we don't know if the earth is a planet. because we don't know if it's simulated. makes you think about even more things
-
must suck to call yourself "plutokiller" then realize you've only moved pluto into a subculture where it gets to be the second biggest fish
-
pluto isn't dead, punk. you didn't make it dead. it's happier now, at the top of its heap, lording it over its new friends
-
planet was a pretentious term anyway. it's like in science fiction it's called Sol but in reality it's just called the sun
-
in the same way, normal people just called them balls all along. sky balls
-
"Initial drafts planned to include dwarf planets as a subcategory of planets" white horse is a horse. liskov substitution. or whatever
-
i forget why we're on this topic. oh, right. lizard people
-
we didn't come to this topic from the topic of lizard people. but the lizard people were probably involved somehow, is what i'm saying
-
the topic of topics is itself a deep topic. it's like, why do people not say what they want instead of being on topic? signaling imho
-
it's like. if the topic is cows and you say something about cows, that's normal. but if the topic is something else,
-
if the topic is something else, then you come across as a person who cares about cows to a weird degree. so if you want to say something
-
if you want to say something about cows, because you're weirdly obsessed with cows, but you don't want to seem like a weirdly obsessed with
-
you don't want to seem like a weirdly obsessed with cows person, you have to kind of find a sequence of steps from the current topic to cows
-
because it's not weird to make a single association step. that's what normal people do. but other people are also playingso it's adversarial
-
maybe they're weirdly obsessed with pigs. so then you get cooperation dynamics where you help each other find a segue into the goats topic
-
it's like the problem of not having an introduction to a person but for talking about instead of talking to. it's very dual in a way
-
but it's a difficult game to play for sure. i haven't found a good segue into my pet topic and i've been trying for 10k tweets now
-
topics exist directly in people's explicit plans for what they were going to talk about but also kind of free floating as signaling centers
-
if you plan out the topics in advance, you're making people play bad strategic moves. it's not as much fun for them
-
i don't think i even remember what my pet topic is at this point. maybe the real pet topic is the friends we made along the way
