    This is ’s account for sci/tech babble, though it’s often just wild pharmacology speculation and hyperfocus-fueled pubmed dives. For simplicity, I don’t use the TL on this account (follows will be from my main). Disclaimer: literally none of this is my expertise.

    it's always fascinating how many obviously-false-under-inspection dualistic assumptions are baked into everyday language and culture

    there is no "thinker" -- only thoughts! nobody thinks the thoughts! the thinking is the thoughts. there is no "watcher" -- only seeing! what is seen is not the "output" of vision, it is vision itself. these may seem obvious, but are ridiculously prevalent category errors

    people aren't software that runs on brains, people *are* brains

    there's this whole idea that "X is caused by a physical/chemical thing, not a psychological thing", as if the two are separable, as if they aren't literally manifestations of each other

    you are your neurochemistry. you are your thoughts and feelings (all of them, every last one of them, not just the ones you label as "I") even your state of mind right now isn't merely "determined by" the chemical state of your brain, it *is* the chemical state of your brain

    it's really weird how some people think their psychology and their neurochemistry are different things. like, your psychology IS your neurochemistry. that's how it works

    they're apparently a very interesting possible NS creation pathway, with possible implications for pulsar populations (ex: millisecond pulsar formation).

    models suggest that under the right conditions, carbon flares will occur but not large enough to actually cause mass loss, allowing the WD to burn accreted helium while continuing to grow

    one hypothesis is that an oxygen-neon white dwarf won't accrete fast enough to reach explosive oxygen ignition temperature because of rapid neutrino cooling

    TIL about accretion-induced collapse of white dwarfs, aka "not all white dwarfs that reach the Chandrasekhar mass limit go supernovae"

    honestly i love the logic they use for banning drugs at this point, they're like "mdma is bad because it's neurotoxic" and then people made non-neurotoxic mdma alternatives and they banned those too, because they're similar to mdma, which is banned

    Epic hard drive fact that presumably everyone else knew: one of the main reasons why platter speeds (and random seek latencies) haven't improved much relates to aeroelastic flutter in the head. Helium is now used because it remains laminar at 8x higher platter speeds.

    holy shit. this reminds me of the studies showing 'pot kills brain cells' but they were really just asphyxiating monkeys by forcing smoke into their lungs
