Somehow, owning a printer seems like a very adult thing to do. That's why I had to get rid of mine. Also, planned obsolescence.

Do you have a source for this claim, or is this just a feeling?

There's nothing that can't be cured (or at least, a little bit ameliorated) by chocolate-covered raisins.

It turns out that adding sweet pomegranate cordial to coffee is not as good as you might think.

Congrats! Writing a book is no small feat, and MIT press is a top quality publisher.

Do you mean this in a literal or figurative sense?

Nice idea :-) I like the Expanse series.

I just accomplished a thing. Now it's time to reward myself with coffee, so I can accomplish the next thing.

Here's what annoys me about bad sci-fi: I'm happy to suspend my disbelief about future technology, but not about human nature.

Not that I want to defend AI's takeover of human decision making, but I suspect that language models will be much better at working with theories and models in ways that we humans haven't considered, because we are constrained by incentives created by culture and funding.

I agree completely. Best way to learn something as an adult is to try things you don't understand. Some things don't interest you and that's fine. Other things you find fascinating and then you get driven to understand all the math and mechanics of why that thing is the way it is.

Lol, definitely true

Is "Ten" (Pearl Jam) really such an amazing album, or did it just happen to come out when I was at an impressionable age? I still love it even after <redacted> years.

But in fairness, that trend seems to be long-term, and might look like a straight line in a log plot.
