you believe, I believe too, that you are the river of light
just like, feed in a screenshot of the game every turn and get back actions as a series of mouse coordinates to click on?

the correct approach to type theory is "exactly as much as I need to be useful and no more"

HKTs should be safe, legal and rare

I just miss earnest posting about mental health, meditation, mysticism, etc. On old twitter it was more possible to carve out a little sub-community and tune out the tiresome stuff

an unelected billionaire running our government like a king is un-American. our forefathers didn't fight and die in the Revolutionary War for this!

^ would really like to see electoral candidates take this kinda messaging and run with it

see this is less controversial / has less collateral damage than "unrealized capital gains tax", while still having much the same effect of hurting billionaires

which I mean, I do acknowledge you gotta go outside SV and accept that YC will never fund you if this is your mission, for a start. I think the core conceit was that you can somehow " improve the world and peoples' agency" and "get rich" at the same time

it sucks, not just bc of the negative effects on all society, but also for those of us hacker nerds who believed in the ethos of the 90s, who want to be scrappy and open-source and make tools that improve peoples' lives and see tech as a viable *anti*-authoritarian tool

it's not that so much; representatives and electors are apportioned according to population counts at the 10-yr census
if CA's pop shrinks while SD's pop grows (for example), and SD stays R, the net effect is more R votes in the House and Electoral College

what is the tactical value of saying “both parties are the same” at this particular moment?

there's a case to be made for availability and archival. e.g Netflix/etc. can just pull a show and make it unavailable, unless you've downloaded a copy

(also, in that case, have the show's creators & actors have already been paid for their labor? not really clear on the contract terms there tbh)

there's a pretty good use case in turning unstructured -> structured data

Which requires the energy and health to put forth the effort
