    If Twitter assigns blue checks, why has no one created a graphic for red checks?

    Constantly thinking how this post broke down Lovecraftian storytelling to the bare minimun AND STILL delivered the same feeling.

    Digital quarantine is here. It appears that folks who fled Wuhan have been digitally quarantined, likely via WeChat. Their apps don’t work outside the quarantine zone. Now that’s happened to 240 Uber users in Mexico exposed to the infected. Complex issue! A thread…🧵

    First, Wuhan is a city in crisis. The healthcare system has crashed. You do not want that in your city, or country. This is not an illusory threat. So, a quarantine. Stop this from spreading. Free movement suddenly has externalities. But how efficient should that quarantine be?

    "With no rent controls and fewer restrictions on height and density, Tokyo appears to be a city where the market is under control—where supply is keeping home prices from rising as drastically as they have in many other major world cities."

    Is there anything more worthless than social science studies of "happiness" based on surveys, which are then naively cited as evidence ("studies show ...")? The surveys are little more than mood polls. They are not structured to elicit causal factors that operate over time.

    Bad choice , given that Quine believed in mathematical objects.

    Quine once said that one's ontology should look like a desert: sparse. Here instead we keep multiplying things at will: mathematical and logical Platonism, panpsychism. What's next? Oh right, science too: parallel universes!

    "Never use Free Monads. They are slow. They produce boilerplate. They require functors. Functors can’t be composed. They require interpreters. Interpreters can’t be composed. So FMs can’t be composed." These statements are all wrong or completely misleading. 1/

    3D printed firearms continue to advance, rendering gun-control efforts increasingly irrelevant. Thread:

    0:16
    The FGC9 is a 3D printed firearm that uses zero 'gun parts' in its construction - making it a gun anyone, even in Europe, could acquire the parts to build. This is at least 15 years ahead of US gun regulation efforts - and undoes those already in place across the world.

    The Wall Street Journal just published an article about me and Bridgewater that is filled with intentional factual errors. You can read about my account of what's happening here:

    The coronavirus is driving wartime levels of medical innovation in China. Telemedicine, medical delivery robots, at-home diagnosis via drone — all these things existed to some extent but they will become standard of care.

    Patronage isn't more common than in the 1980s, but it is more important to intellectual and economic productivity. Governments, top universities and companies overlook talent and opportunities they would have once seen. Decaying institutions leave low hanging fruit unplucked.

    Also it feels like patronage is a bigger thing these days. At a meeting recently we found by show of hands that a majority of the young clever people in attendance had got money from at least one eccentric billionaire, and eccentric billionaires favour the curious

    People complain about addiction to social media. Addiction to one’s own thoughts is even more common. It’s called rumination, and it underlies everything from depression to, in extreme cases, OCD.

    Reading a famous book and failing to appreciate it is not evidence that it’s “overrated.” That would require a separate argument. If you have no such argument but still insist that the book is overrated, I’m afraid it’s your judgement that’s impeached.

    A relative of mine from China just sent me this. Rows of police surrounds her residential block where a positive case was found. It was someone who returned from . Now their entire family has been taken away. The whole block is now sealed off until 16th Feb.
