Personality-wise my priors are that scientific productivity tends to occur among people who are BOTH open (so they see many "weirdly diverse" things) AND conscientious (so theoretical "abnormalities" worthy of study jump out from the orderly background).

Are people silly for not having coherent, non-contradictory beliefs, or is it silly to expect intelligent people to have global, universal, coherent beliefs about messy reality?

Different people of course have different values for what’s good, but once you start trying to *optimize* them you leave the mainstream fast. Ecologists think in terms of saving ecosystems, not cute polar bears. Development economists think about institutions and infrastructure.

“I’ve been living her all my life, this is just crazy,” said Tim, (last name withheld) as he unsuccessfully tries to stomp a fire on his neighbor's truck on Los Amigos Road on the N. end of Windsor, CA where the Kincaid fire came close to Highway 101.

I’ve thought about it and there’s just no other ethical choice: I’m quitting

To get more housing we need urbanists & constitutional lawyers to get together & file a lot of lawsuits. That’s the case I make in this post. Here’s a summary thread about it. In short, urbanists & libertarian/conservative lawyers need to talk. & sue. 1/https://ij.org/sc_blog/lets-take-zoning-to-court/ …

Sarah's thread here is EXTREMELY productive. Many points have very high quality replies that lead to sub threads that are themselves worth exploring. Tab explosion considered "worth it" :-)https://twitter.com/s_r_constantin/status/1175401124167176192 …

FOURTH and possibly the BIGGEST change is that you can no longer highlight lots of content by scrolling down and then using ^A ^C to get months of data for analysis. Twitter seems to want to rate limit access to the data only to Itself and humans-in-subservient-consumer-mode.

I feel like audio books land in a different place in my memory than paper books. Do different books give the best impact via different media? Like I bet audio books are WAY better for "reading" poetry. Anyway, the replies here are great :-) https://twitter.com/FrHarrison/status/1167838954671894529 …

Are there any accounts of "emptiness", preferably purely phenomenological/methodological, that don't presume a contentious metaphysics?

This thread has a fascinating take on habits of media consumption and production (focusing on Twitter) that put a person in some relation to a "zeitgeist year". As someone obsessed with time and books, I'm impressed with the formulation.https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1125125128910565376 …
