    "The core lesson of complexity theory is that we're moving from a world where science is focused on prediction and control to science at the very best being able to guide appropriate participation in systems and as part of that you need to embrace not knowing" - Daniel Wahl

    You can look at pairs plots and determine if divergences cluster in certain areas of the joint posterior. If they are uniform (no specific clustering), then you are generally OK (or you can at least be more confident that you are not obtaining biased samples).

    I don’t see the unshackling of our chains done through technological development. I don’t think human progress is part and parcel with technological development. There’s a cosmological imperialism in some of the ways men worship technology.

    An aside: you can stop spiro without an orchi once your T levels are consistently low enough. A high enough estradiol level will keep testosterone within natal female ranges on its own. Bonus: fewer trips to the bathroom and less bingeing on all the salty things.

    The Black Swan (2007) discusses the risks of a virus spreading owing to the increased connectivity in the modern environment. Connectivity increases fattailedness. We were never as connected as we were 10 days ago.

    Hard work is the engine. Strategy is the GPS. It’s difficult to get anywhere without hard work. If the engine stops running, progress stalls. But you’ll waste a lot of gas without a good strategy. It’s easier to make progress when you’re following the optimal path.

    Euler’s disk is known as a dramatic visualization of energy exchanges in three different processes. As the disk gradually decreases its azimuthal rotation, there is also a decrease in amplitude and increase in the frequency of the disk's axial precession 🛒

    I knew I desperately wished I was a girl since at least my teenage years (I have pretty much no memory of anything earlier) but I only figured out what it meant at 33.

    Many people don’t even know they’re carrying that blanket of dysphoria around because they’ve simply been carrying it their entire adult lives. Desensitization to its weight makes you unable to realize how nice life can be without it, despite painful externalities of transition.

    HRT was like removing one of those lead blankets they put over your body when you get x-rays. Puberty PUT IT THERE Puberty DOESN’T TAKE IT AWAY Only after it cleared within the first month of T-blockers did I realize why I self harmed at 13... hormonal dysphoria

    The deification of Ratan Tata by NRN is both humbling and scary. Shows us what is right and wrong about India at the moment. Just can’t wrap my head around this.

    First noticed this in the 90's. Companies were desperate for X windows (Unix GUI) developers, until they weren't. Few people knew the tech. Those who did saw the writing on the wall. Nobody new had time to learn it before it went away. But there were applications to maintain.

    You can make a lot of money supporting a dying technology, right before you're unable to make a dime. Demand decreases in terms of number of customers, but increases in terms of intensity among those who need it. Supply and demand both go to zero, but not at the same rate.

    3 things that help habits stick: 1) Repetition. Habits form based on frequency, not time. 2) Stable context. If the context is always changing, so is the behavior. You need a reliable environment. 3) Positive emotions. If it feels good, you’ll want to repeat it.

    Wealth is the power to choose. Financial wealth is the power to choose how to spend money. Social wealth is the power to choose who to hang out with. Calendar wealth is the power to choose how to spend your time. Mental wealth is the power to choose your thoughts.

    You can get a sense of what nonlinearity does to the hopping "rules" by looking at where a dense group of points go after about ~15 hops forward/backward for varying k. (This is technically HW for 's dynamical systems course—it's tough to hand in a GIF in person!)

    how did it take me this long to learn that the “witches riding brooms” trope actually came from women getting themselves off by making DIY lube mixed with hallucinogenic DMT taken from frog skin and putting it on their broomsticks

    This reminds me of a discussion at the in Canberra last year about a dystopian future where evidence synthesis is replaced with a Google version of systematic reviews... Scary. [4/4]

    Also I have an atypical stutter. Didn't even start off with it. I've had it ever since I went through a period of trauma in middle school and it worsened by junior year. Turns out a massive vocabulary helps your enunciation positively fuckall!
