    Controversially, that would be ‘woke’, but obvs the term is now somewhat tarnished. As the right has an immovable Evangelical wing, so now does the Left. A good word for such peopl…

    What is the utility of denying it? What do you or anyone else actually get from such obvious absurdity, I wonder? If it helps - and I have doubts - does (say) a working knowledge o…

    Good grief. This is what 20 years of language policing has wrought. People who are nervous (hiding behind ‘skeptical’) about words like ‘advanced’ when, by any number of dimensions…

    An absurd take. The ‘trauma’ people, baggage handlers de nos jours, have already weaponised the phenomenon for political points, before we even know definitively if it exists. Hey …

    Here come the police, ever-vigilant for perceived or potential slights. Bless you, Officer.

    Does anyone know if are.na supports private sharing of content within groups? I’ve looked and I cannot see if this simple thing is possible, or not. Then I could use it share moodb…

    Do yourself a big favour and read the article before commenting, perhaps? Hint: Schmidhuber has amassed solid evidence over years of digging.

    The real shame of it is that OP claims affiliation to two respectable universities (UCL and Cambridge) and one formerly credible venue (CHI) Mock scholarship is on the rampage. I a…

    What a great story: remarkable how the New Yorker of 1995 has the same efficient but easy-going clarity as 2025.

    Looks cool! Very polished, I appreciate just how much effort it takes to get something like this out of the door. Couple of questions for OP What is it written in? What will the li…

    How can invest in money laundering? Serious question. No crypto please, I do have some limits.

    What of it? The Loved One (1948) was a bit of a squib at best, tonally a throwback to the earlier Waugh. It’s not very good (imho) so you can see why Terry Southern - who had not m…

    I’m trying to understand what the ‘spectral’ interpretation of IMM is: but perhaps I shouldn’t https://sander.ai/2024/09/02/spectral-autoregression.html

    Ach. You seem full of (unrelated, unwarranted) ragefulness, and you stand ready to handwave away both scientific studies and actual user experience. Without, I see, providing any g…

    Not being able to get your kid to sleep because the upstairs flat is now a weekend party place for tourists is… a non-problem? ‘Wonderful’ convenience for tourists, sure. Writing o…

    Rather a lopsided article that misses the point somewhat. Humphrey Smith may be an eccentric and unkind loon, but Sam Smith’s pubs in London are far and away the best chain in town…
