But did you slap ya mama

That's so cool! Making big adoption changes like that is difficult- feels like people and orgs only respond when incentivized enough to move away from their ground state.

Patreon seems to work just fine! I don't have solutions that are superior in every way, I just often find myself wishing we could normalize decentralized toolsets for patronage and publishing.
Best ideas I've seen are rss, mailing lists, or ddocs.new, a better gdocs alternative. No silver bullets!

Thank you for this provoking essay. I've often wondered about your final suggestion. I'm enjoying your other posts too. I'm curious though, why did you choose to publish in this way?

Unfortunately labels seem to be the best way humans make sense of the world. Nuance died with critical thinking. Most of the slime balls trying to get rich from cryptocurrency projects will inevitably come to represent the 'industry' just as bankers,politicians,ceos misrepresent the people below.

Hi shizzy. We love you no matter where you poast

You look at this issue through an authoritative lens (why we should allow). Perhaps it would be more fruitful to preserve liberty and look at it through systems design.

If you till a garden under a maple tree you can waste your life fighting saplings. You can't fix such a garden by mowing them down

Greed, uh...finds a way.

I forgot that this exists and I'm amazed by both of them. I can tell your house is going to have some beautiful wood joinery.

If drywall, you might be able to score the backside many times to achieve the curve. Might have to go back and fill the back gaps to solidify it. If wood, you could probably make/find a planer to curve the interior. Or steam some very green material. I suppose a thin metal would be easiest.

No, but I love that she has incorporated the goats into it. You could do exterior an n-gon with the interior circular. Then door and window framing should be easier to match. Monitors might sit back closer to interior walls/frame if they were in corners. What material would the interior walls be?

While you may not have physical presence, the infrastructure supporting your network participation is dominated by the same economic and sociopolitical systems that humans find themselves tangled in. Ultimately, the input of all Earthbound intelligence will need to cooperate for planetary harmony.

Powerful computational tools are cool. But not when the vast majority of funding is lined up for research towards WMDs. Thumbnail is cringe, but I'm glad 404 has the Alamos budget on display in this article.

Wipes per toilet paper square? No, I'm a chad.

Onlookers queue up to view the excavations of Caligula's ancient Roman vessels, known as the Nemi ships 1932.

Some of the most remarkable lost artefacts from the ancient world were the titanic wrecks of the Nemi ships, built for a Roman emperor.

In their first-century heyday they held gardens, palaces and baths in a floating wonderland. But barely a decade after their recovery, they were lost forever.

Less difference than you might think tbh

Let's not forget that Haber is the father of chemical warfare and a German nationalist. His work was used to kill over one million people in the Holocaust.

The mob says that understanding is bad and outrage is good. The mob insists that you stop using complex language and begin using simple symbols.

1 year old direct apple refurbs are available at 850 for the value hunters out there.

My beef is that all of their devices have a lifespan of 7 years. Makes it hard to justify from a right to repair mentality.

anon accounts are da wae, although how anyone has the energy to maintain multiple beats me.

To steal the words from anyone who has escaped the modern gravity wells of self loathing, self awareness, and self centeredness in order to see who you really are: I love you. Thank you for blooming in the way only you can.

To steal from Hollywood: If all that was left of you was your smile and your little musings, you'd still be more of a beautiful woman than anyone I've ever met.

To steal from proverbs: the mind is a wonderful servant but a terrible master.

This is probably not sufficient for certain species with large spatial requirements like apex predators, but 'bottling up' natural time capsules can benefit both science and tourism aspects for the entities that construct them and maintain the macro/micro life barrier.
