Untitled. Wait... Curse you, Russell!

You have some responsibility, I think, to not be a moron, to not shoot yourself in the foot, for your own sake. and certainly you have a responsibility to not tell others that shooting themselves in the foot is a good idea. If you do that and then people shoot themselves in the foot, I think you have some of the blame for the harm

But what about [very specific situation where shooting yourself in the foot is the least-bad option]? Surely it’s better to say that shooting yourself in the foot is a valid thing to do, for situations like that?

Ok but why are the index funds changing the rules to let SpaceX in early. Do they honestly think that valuation is sensible and long lasting? What is the benefit here

Anyhow rip "Just invest in Index Funds", you were good financial advice for generations. You are survived by "Just invest in low-fee open mutual funds" and their new wife "* unless they fucking buy growth stocks"

This does not address whether “autological” is autological. It isn’t a paradox in the same way as heterological is, but it still doesn’t work normally.

I think that one of the most frustrating things about algospeak, after the "compliance in advance" self-censorship, is that there is no actual evidence-based justification for it. Everyone who uses it does so because they heard from a guy who heard from a guy that The Algorithm will bury their content if they don't use cutesy euphemisms.

it's weird how its a literal superstition about algorithms, and it's significantly changing English as it's used

It would be helpful to link those studies when you mention them as evidence!

And that’s why I chose the datamining option. It’s when you know you can listen to all the music, instead of just when you think you can.

"only a poor artisan blames his tools" is such bullshit, in almost every imaginable line of work the quality of the tools you have access to plays a massive role in the quality of the end product, sometimes in excess of the role played by individual skill! For example, some people have to code in javascript

On the other hand, "my code doesn't work because of a compiler bug" is almost always the incorrect deduction (unless the compiler crashes or tell you this), despite compilers being full of bugs. It is just that my code likely has even more bugs. So "a poor artisan blames his tool too much sometimes" is a failure mode, but that is not pithy at all. It can be hard to tell if one is bad at something because of bad tools or because of bad skill.

For me it was actually my first job out of college. My code (well, the relevant section of it) did not have UB, but the compiler has an I Can Do What I Want As Long As It Works license and was adding something that worked but would be UB if I wrote it. Which would have been fine; it did usually work and the compiler does have that license, but its transformation happened before ubsan.

My dash is really quite psyched about Project Hail Mary but maybe I've placed myself in a bubble

And before that everyone was talking about K-Pop Demon Hunters. But neither of those were as big as the examples in OP and I don’t expect them to get that way; I think you need something with multiple installments for that, but not enough so that people are already tired of it.

The supposed Great Books of history are in fact great easily 50% of the time. Which might sound like a neg but it's actually a wildly good track record I've never seen surpassed

if you are a parent, or may become one, or you are otherwise likely to arrive in the situation of caring for a child while they eat, promise me this: if a child doesn't like a certain food or food group, you will ask them WHY. and specifically, you will pay attention to either confirming or ruling out "it makes my mouth itch" or "it makes my stomach hurt," both of which are medically important info that children may not provide unprompted. which i know because this PSA has been brought to you by "i spent my entire childhood and much of my early teens eating peas and lentils while wondering why everyone else liked the Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation so much, like were they a bunch of legume masochists or something, before i finally realized that Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation was in fact a sinister demon appearing only to me, and her true demonic name was: Legume Allergy"

the most annoying part of the "transporter problem" discourse is that's not actually how star trek transporters work

a more pressing question is whether you were playing WTF when you wrote this post and if not what the heck you thought you were doing using its rules

You don’t need to make citations; it’s just useful.

Not immediately, but it would make the things I’m bad at less salient (who cares if my ADHD gets in the way of keeping a job?), which probably has an effect fairly quickly.
