    I highly recommend the 1990 Polish stop motion TV series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moomins_(TV_series) . The only one that, to me, captures the magic of the books.

    Works perfectly in 1Password. One-click sign-in is awesome! I don't understand the hate towards passkeys. Managing passwords for non-techies is infinitely worse in my experience.

    Well no, that's not the reason why we're not Boltzmann Brains. A Boltzmann Brain is perfectly capable of believing that it is sensing reality in exactly the same way that your brai…

    There are no such things as absolute static things in relativity theory. "Before" and "After" depend entirely on the observer. Energy/matter and spacetime are deeply connected thro…
