  2. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @QuinnyPig: I may be old fashioned, but "if we have to ask people for consent for what we're doing, we don't get it and thus lose money"…
  3. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@kyzcralotSxaM Yes, his guests are all over the place which I appreciate.... And intellectually I know his "yes, and" style is a factor in getting his big name bookings... But I still wish he'd taken smart pills before yapping to Elon about very strong magnets
  4. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quote"beloved quote collection" 🤔 maybe I should start my own https://x.com/visakanv/status/1489057116778217472
  5. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@kyzcralotSxaM He's the Platonic everybro, asking "open-minded" questions but happy to relax into "I'm just a dumb guy" before getting beyond normie comfort zone. I admire his skill but listening to him annoys the hell outta me.
  6. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@DistractedAnna Boys??
  7. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@nullpointered @pmarca Not dead, they've been wired into the hive mind and experiencing collective seizures of increasing intensity ever since 🤷‍♀️ https://t.co/mzzNx13g13
  8. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@kyzcralotSxaM monotone bros are the best 💕

  11. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Whiskeypunk1 Sigh, wish Bezos had purchased the team, named it the Primes, and paid for a sparkling new stadium to replace RFK
  12. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@nickcammarata @pmarca @tszzl I'm a rooncult true believer... if my expression of our theology is of any use, it is only because our Dear Leader first showed me the light 💕
  13. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@twinfrey When in Doubt, Hula Hoop it Out!

  15. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@vgr Are you *not* living in your PJs in 2022?
  16. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@spacepanty @tszzl Except maybe on the Schizo-Scale... roonpoasters have the edge there
  17. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives Yep, my cat doesn't get it either... She snuck into a closet for a nap once, it was 6 hrs later she woke up and started crying to get out just as I was leaving for the gym.
  18. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@cauchyfriend @eigenrobot @MorlockP Live in gated communities? 😏
  19. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer @tszzl But think how many other memecels die on the vine, wishing for their moment in the sun.
  20. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quoteInflation hits Congress https://x.com/LisaDNews/status/1489039618162970627
  21. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@tszzl Isn't the whole point of memes to be run into the ground? 🤔
  22. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@manuelhe @growing_daniel @pmarca (and like everyone I'm a satisfacter- look into it to reasonable confidence, don't dig deep enough for 100% because who has the time? So if later stronger evidence shows my orig understanding was wrong, I'm not gonna dig in and fight because I "believe" otherwise)
  23. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@manuelhe @growing_daniel @pmarca Ofc, I pay a lot of attn to risk. It's the "faith" part that I dislike- if something is so I should be able to dig into the details and convince myself it is, not surrender because someone says the word "science"
  24. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Noahpinion Nahhhh, existing estate tax is why I'm all tangled w family real estate tax hell already.

  26. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@pikecanth13 @SRtwofourfour (and/or shrink the Pike to one lane each way)
  27. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ArlTechGuy @SRtwofourfour I mean I think they're correlated- Get neighbors to buy into higher civic assoc membership to hire a lawyer to fight for them, more stable living situation because own not rent etc...
  28. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@manuelhe @growing_daniel @pmarca I swim in a sea of uncertainty, believing nothing absolute
  29. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · postUm, I know I had my first glass of wine in a month, but is that really a hula hoop hook hung by the property management? 🤔 https://t.co/NrncGn5PgT
  30. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@pikecanth13 @SRtwofourfour Yes. I really like old buildings & architecture, I'm generally sympathetic to preservation, but there's nothing special about the ski chalet etc- eminent domain it and give us a sidewalk that doesn't put people into the street.
  31. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@xIronman777 @WholeMarsBlog Biden jealous of the hair... (Like most men over 50)
  32. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Kirsten3531 Knitting!
  33. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@cauchyfriend @pmarca https://t.co/m9tALw91SW
  34. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@pikecanth13 @SRtwofourfour So true.... "Historic preservation" = southie doesn't deserve modern sidewalks
  35. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@pikecanth13 @SRtwofourfour So true. We need to take grassroots action to narrow the Pike to 1 lane + protected bike lane...
  36. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@growing_daniel Typical ironmaster... Rare on Twitter, majority offline

  38. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@DanielleAlberti @SRtwofourfour The lack of towing from in front of that Starbucks makes me almost wish they'd hire Advanced
  39. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@SRtwofourfour Those civic orgs are powerful, know how to work the system
  40. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@akhilcacharya @tszzl "will"? 🤔
  41. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@growing_daniel @tszzl Improved eval of founders' potential? Or stereotype that causes him to miss the next big thing?
  42. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@tundranaut @pmarca (not mentioning that no one has yet looked for evidence)
  43. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@growing_daniel @pmarca I *believe* the science ✝️☪️✡️
  44. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @vgr: “Slouching on ceremony” Half-assign expectations of ceremony so you can’t be faulted for not observing them at all, but don’t pay…
  45. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@alt1na1 💕 Quaker values in governance
  46. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Thinkwert 🤫 this is why my tweets are a mix of internet infrastructure and permaculture / animals
  47. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@PrinceVogel If longevity treatments became available within your lifetime would you take them?
  48. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @TimBeatley: A flutter of magical hope on the Central Coast, as monarch butterflies return https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-02-02/monarch-butterflies-lift-spirits-in-return-to-california-central-coast
  49. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@arctanno Omg, this gives me the creepy crawlies.... rooncon w nerf guns for me
  50. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@mycoliza Ugh my cat is just the same- any leaves thin enough to nibble get their ends gnawed off and toothmark holes throughout, anything grassy is eaten down to nubs
  51. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @airandspace: #TDIH 1906, John Brisben Walker, editor of Cosmopolitan magazine, presented this Lilienthal glider to the @Smithsonian. Ot…
  52. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@bryan_caplan The financial rewards from successful signal (degrees) are the cheese at the end of the maze? Being a diverse open country, we more than most need a unifying quest to build shared values and conformity in our youth?
  53. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@redoatz *intellectually-underprivileged-cel .... I think that's the PC term these days?
  54. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quote@MeiselZachary @balajis @tszzl Yeah imo it isn't a full taxonomy- I think you're a Dot Connector 😘 (me too!) https://x.com/Mimi_Peacock/status/1488718185021030402
  55. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@MattiasInSpace @eurydicelives @SpencerMorn And why everyone is so eager to have zero-trust crypto 🙄 and yet...
  56. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@MattiasInSpace @eurydicelives @SpencerMorn But someone like Gates or Buffet funding anti-poverty initiatives.... Powerful signal of virtue, sure they did it partly for the PR value but it *did* cost them
  57. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer @arctanno 🤣 so true, "SageMaker" sounds good to execs
  58. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@chairsign @growing_daniel @pmarca Lol same!
  59. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · postDMs are open / notifications are off- feel free to reach out! If you wanna chat but don't have anything to say, tell me about your favorite book or author💕
  60. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer @arctanno Then lanky goth dev sidles up to compliment your last PR... (guilty conscience about the SageMaker he left running)
  61. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@MattiasInSpace @eurydicelives @SpencerMorn What I don't understand abt this insult is that a good signal is not fakeable- you actually have the virtue you are signaling...
  62. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer @arctanno big cheeto is grateful that you offered to take over his task of analyzing and justifying this month's AWS bill 😏
  63. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@arctanno @ionlazer (I joke because I *am* this guy, sigh)
  64. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@arctanno @ionlazer https://t.co/aX43khwXqH
  65. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@pmarca A single wordcel can be crushed or brushed aside, a wordsponge committee deforms to absorb the blows unharmed and unmoved.
  66. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer @arctanno You say that now... Wait till your Cheetos-dust-smeared buddy grabs you in a bear hug and won't let go 😏
  67. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quoteThe utopia of intelligence too cheap to meter... https://x.com/sama/status/1488955309888471041
  68. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@metzgov If not you can always roll a copier through the hallways to increase your engagement numbers
  69. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@azarr_ @WholeMarsBlog @elonmusk Early? Privileged.
  70. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@SmithInAmerica This is what happens when normies rely on platforms built by techies, who are a fundamentally different neurotype. Need a babelfish translator to bridge the comms gap.
  71. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@PossibleCabbage @mattyglesias (To be clear, mostly owners just buy it and deworm on a rotation to keep parasite loads down, not necessarily prescribed by a vet- non-human medicine is dysfunctional in different ways)
  72. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@mattyglesias Particularly when it literally *is* horse dewormer- I've used it many times! We are all animals, knock off the speciesist crap.
  73. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @nouveaumucha: Alphonse Mucha, Exhibition Poster, 1898 http://www.moma.org/collection/works/65139 #museumarchive #alphonsemucha https://t.co/iAqi7SCRG3
  74. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @prerationalist: ...dominos!!! https://t.co/GskXBYajJD
  75. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@manbeachproject @pmarca We should all be more like Snoopy♥️ https://t.co/OhZgWMBa7Y
  76. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @visakanv: who could possibly have foreseen this
  77. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@ionlazer Yes please! I'm interested in understanding more of the social engineering going on behind the UX
  78. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @deepfates: Just realizing that for a lot of you this is probably your first And only Twitter cluster, you haven't experienced the same…
  79. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@deepfates Thanks for this thread putting it all together as a reference when ppl ask
  80. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Whiskeypunk1 (and I know Gates is considered the devil by many around here, but from early days of pandemic he was advocating for paying labs a bonus for one day results, good fee for two day results, nothing after that- so you'd either get an actionable answer or not waste time on old tests)
  81. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@losingcontrol23 Yes to those, I also think it can be uncanny valley to see a small snippet without the full context, esp knowing how ppl filter & edit- giving a small taste makes you more aware of all that's missing
  82. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Whiskeypunk1 Nope! They should've been taking down reason for testing all along- could make separate prioritized lines, and would help us interpret the % positivity (like, look at % pos who tested bec symptomatic, % pos tested bec known contact)
  83. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@losingcontrol23 It's soooo lopsided, esp in text-based convos- all verbal rational interaction processed consciously, no nonverbal / contextual input to subconsciously process trustworthiness / safety... Formula for anxiety & depression
  84. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@losingcontrol23 Yes, I read this and switched from diet coke to regular... Not sure if it's true but precautionary principle (plus I should drink less of it either way, vanity usually motivates me to limit consumption of real sugar)
  85. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quoteSometimes promoted tweets make me curious... 🤔 https://x.com/LambdaAPI/status/1470599798638190595
  86. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · replyReversing this tendency is the insight behind "touch grass" meme ... more elegantly articulated by EO Wilson as the biophilic hypothesis... humans evolved for the sensory experience of being in nature, we need the subconscious comfort of birdsong and wind https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biophilia_hypothesis
  87. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · replyAnd this is only the processing that gets us to a mental image... Language describing our view is another level of lossy compression. Low bitrates strengthen negative emotions in music, is this what's happening on Twitter too? https://www.whathifi.com/news/mp3s-make-you-less-happy-study-says
  88. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@harrisonpartch 💕 thank you! Will order now!
  89. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · postI find it fascinating / hard to fully appreciate how much of our vision is our brain's interpolation, not actual sensory perception. It works amazingly well but fun to play with optical illusions where it predictably fails 😍 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filling-in
  90. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · repostRT @visakanv: yup this was absolutely my childhood dream. it’s done. ❤️ I have achieved what my friends, family, teachers and society told…
  91. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@Noahpinion Hah my cat loves opera and showtunes ... Not my first picks, but entertaining to watch her listen and tap her tail in time.
  92. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@jicapal @AngularOcean Sucking on roon all day... 💕 https://t.co/S4KnKdQnwi
  93. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@chrisgardenuk @goblinodds Yeah, assholes gonna asshole.
  94. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quote🤣 I mean, accurate... Thanks? https://x.com/aburisotto/status/1488799537774874630
  95. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@aburisotto 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 idk what my own team's code is doing, till it acts up at scale and I have to deduce wtf is going wrong (if it gets to me, is usually multithreading / performance issues)
  96. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@aburisotto Reduce cognitive load at all costs 🙏🙏🙏
  97. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@aburisotto Lol yes please, improve my life, and even better if I don't have to know / think about it. (Ofc I'm also someone who would let a talented AI manage my schedule, diet, exercise, and money / shopping, so...)
  98. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@duncanaitken @olaotantc @caspar_g @pmarca Literally, people who do well on shape rotation questions on IQ tests... Colloquially, math / engineering / tech types with more nonverbal talent than verbal ability. Rough scissor would be whether your math or verbal SAT was higher.
  99. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · reply@RealBearSmith @pmarca 🤣 in my case the issue is *not* taking my psych meds... But yeah prob same net effect 🤷‍♀️
  100. Feb 2, 2022Twitter · quote@goblinodds @visakanv https://x.com/TheCaptain_Nemo/status/1487463504613306368
