I recently came across a theory that Erwin Schrödinger and Postman Pat are actually one and the same person.

Maybe. You can never be sure.
Suggestions for things to do with my mum in London in the first week of December?

Interesting essay suggesting a new category of bad-faith speech to accompany lying and bullshit - "wank".
Today's article is about a form of bad-faith speech somewhat akin to bullshit, which I'm calling (because why not) wank. I don't quite think I've focused the ideas down as much as I can, but I think it says some interesting things regardless:

Best #LFC performance of the season by miles, and probably for a good few games before that too.

So many outstanding performances- Ekitike, Gravenbach, Wirz, Konate, Bradley, Szoboszlai all outstanding, but Courtois MOTM.

Much of the commentary here is scoffing, but given the toxicity of some of the other platforms and their founders in particular, is it really so terrible that they are trying to use AI to promote (albeit a certain kind) of human flourishing?
