  1. Jul 6, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky (to be clear, medical has been legal and you can buy with a drs note, but the recreational retail is still pending more "equity" discussion)
  2. Jul 6, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky Yep, tho haven't set up the retail system yet, so everyone now has a seedling or two in a sunny window. Hemp / CBD farms do well here, farmers are planting trial seedlings with an eye to outdoor commerical growing.
  3. Jul 6, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky ... is for Lovers. Capital of the Confederacy. Marijuana is legal as of 5 days ago.
  4. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · repostRT @Tanmaygoel32: My perception on @elonmusk has completely changed after listening to @businessbarista’s podcast! Innovation through ope…
  5. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@FitFounder How they act when asked to do something clearly "beneath" their professional role. Anyone can say thank you and tip well, but will they actually roll up their sleeves and wash dishes without complaint?
  6. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky Looking to diversify your rental portfolio into prepper bunkers? Might be a bit tricky collecting the rent...
  7. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@HalaAyala Please expand broadband in 20132! It is ridiculous that I work in datacenters at the center of the internet, but have no option except very patchy slow cell connectivity at my new home. One of the reasons I keep two houses is so I can work from home at the Arlington one.
  8. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@primalpoly @robertwiblin Isn't that what the Management Consultants are for? 😏
  9. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky It is also a good argument for dropping credentialism and focusing on what skills and knowledge a person brings to their work... Leave academia to those who enjoy it (and stop funding it with tax dollars), employers can pay for Coursera as needed.
  10. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky But symbolic victories are the sweetest kind 🙂 all the self righteousness, none of the hard work or unforseen consequences.
  11. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@deepfates Depends what you're hoping to gain from having the site? As a follower I'd click bc I want context for a tweet (like approx age or location or prof bg), or your tweets have me intrigued enough to click through for long-form more, or if you tweet a link to a book list or smthg
  12. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@deepfates Should have appended "Wrong answers only." to your initial ask- guarantees more than half the replies will take you literally 😏
  13. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@deepfates Greatest hit Tweets, by personal selection and by most likes. Link to GitHub account with an explanation of what you're working on. Top 100 book list with short reviews and humorous tagging.
  14. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@mattyglesias Rich people tend to think that by the time you get to college the cake is largely baked. Which is true, if you are given all the rich person opportunities and freedom from braindead public schools.
  15. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@RationalEtienne @elonmusk Now turn the camera around and show us what he's looking at with that expression?
  16. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@mattyglesias Does the Thiel Foundation not count? http://www.thielfellowship.org/
  17. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson Romantic relationships start with the illusion of "forever", this agreement would incentive ending the relationship sooner with a bet against its longevity. On a practical level no matchmaker wants to defer compensation and have to track people down for payment years later.
  18. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@mattyglesias Ever considered moving to WV? Charles Town isn't too far for an occasional jaunt to DC, and your car-free DC friends can ride the MARC to Harpers Ferry for weekend visits.
  19. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@robertwiblin Personal theory- the "2 wks after vax before unmasking" isn't about protecting yourself but others- it matches the recommended quarantine time after exposure, so if you were infected slightly before vax you would no longer be shedding virus at vax + 2wks.
  20. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@anelki @ArlingtonVA @TakisKarantonis @kcristol @CD4arlington @Matt4Arlington Jan 6th? 😥
  21. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@cauchyfriend @TylerAlterman Ok since I actually have ASD, my autistic game theory is that her circle of female friends have led her to this look with repeated encouraging feedback due to some combo of misguided groupthink, pity, and jealousy.
  22. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · quote🙄😳😬💸 https://x.com/iamdevloper/status/1411951162320957445
  23. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@Protiled @Grimezsz @elonmusk I said "using Elon's Twitter celebrity" not "using" her partner ... Obviously idk anything about the internal dynamics of their relationship, but without knowing more I think it is cool to inspire loved ones to take positive action.
  24. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@ema79rugby @RationalEtienne @elonmusk And the perpetrators were waving flags and claiming to be patriots as they viciously beat capitol police, which could have easily been one of my DC cop neighbors or in-laws. So no I'm not feeling very patriotic these days.
  25. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@ema79rugby @RationalEtienne @elonmusk People died, my dad was unable to do his military job due to lockdowns, I couldn't leave the house because of a curfew, nearby public parks and streets were barricaded for months, helicopters circled for weeks, the national guard was diverted from vaccine logistics...
  26. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@Grimezsz @elonmusk Yay cool you're behind this, using Elon's Twitter celebrity for positive change. 💕 Neurodiverse Solidarity!!!
  27. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · reply@darkgaro If you don't like _filling your brain with context and staying focused till a task is done_ you won't like programming (at least not for larger systems).
  28. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · repostRT @Rahul_J_Mathur: It's funny that people quit corporate life to escape structure, process and stability. Only to join a startup or growt…
  29. Jul 5, 2021Twitter · quoteAnd this is why the govt finally released the UFO files... 😏 https://x.com/VinveliVEERA/status/1411265239824273408
  30. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@SwiftOnSecurity Have your art consultant track down this Damien Hirst mermaid sculpture... https://www.venisejetaime.com/24163/ https://t.co/onwo7LgPt0
  31. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@kirbyman01 Did the Boomers acquire their 21% of wealth via inheritance or some other means? If inheritance, then is the complaint that Millennials' parents are living too long? If not inheritance, what has actually changed for the worse?
  32. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky Which region has the best private islands?
  33. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@mattyglesias 💕 West Virginia... 💕
  34. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@BlckCatBlckSky Jack London
  35. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@I_amaDerek @aviinfinity @MalwareTechBlog Seriously- one of the uses is identifying suspicious behavior to block faster than a human analyst... Also about optimizing network resources and identifying outages / rerouting around. https://t.co/1Su3KMnMoi
  36. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@ReneeStephen @boomerangfish @MalwareTechBlog My local context- cloud DCs maybe 84% less energy use than if distributed as on-prem equip, but power needs the equiv of 750K households... Tough problem https://patch.com/virginia/ashburn/loudoun-countys-data-centers-computing-costs
  37. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@CynaxGer @boomerangfish @MalwareTechBlog I mean, if someone could harness the human energy devoted to crypto hype...
  38. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@ReneeStephen @boomerangfish @MalwareTechBlog Depends whether you mean solar and batteries or larger capacity fossil fuel generators sitting next to DCs because NIMBYs block the redundant power lines from the solar farms. Microsoft's undersea servers seem promising...
  39. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · repostRT @ModFarm: How to design a cutting garden and have fresh-picked bouquets all summer long! https://modernfarmer.com/2021/07/how-to-design-a-cutting-garden/
  40. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@aviinfinity @MalwareTechBlog You joke but AI-controlled SD-WAN is a real thing.
  41. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson Seems like the govt found a way to make debt disappear during the pandemic- just send checks to the bottom 80% 😏
  42. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@RationalEtienne @elonmusk Seriously tho I hope his driving AI doesn't have the same attitude... Snow driving is barely used -> forget that bridges ice first.
  43. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@RationalEtienne @elonmusk Thanks... Here in DC no one I know has any real plans to celebrate... Used to be our #1 holiday, downer to see it ignored, but I guess the Capitol attack is still too fresh?
  44. Jul 4, 2021Twitter · reply@boomerangfish @MalwareTechBlog Watch out next thing you know they'll be shifting off electricity because the power grid is too centralized #steampunkcrypto

  47. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · quoteCrypto, the new currency for helping Nigerian princes while earning big rewards... Much less friction than Western Union 😏 https://x.com/CoinDesk/status/1411363360227172352
  48. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@Sofiaan @elonmusk @BLKMDL3 But you don't want to put out something with obvious flaws and invite negative press coverage / confirm the fears of naysayers. I support as many more fortnights as needed to maximize odds of faster mass acceptance.
  49. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@akshat_shahh Look into non-religious homeschool content as a starting point- lots out there but could surely be improved
  50. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@SpencrGreenberg Decimal rather than Hex.
  51. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@eigenrobot My theory, it did exist but was stolen... https://t.co/vIX0AD6dDo
  52. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@AndreMillaire @SamTwits @elonmusk @RationalEtienne @Kristennetten @teslaownersSV @WholeMarsBlog "two weeks" is Tesla shorthand for "hopefully very soon, if all the stars align... but standard disclaimer, they probably won't"
  53. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@skorusARK To be fair, this was more advantageous in the days of bench seats and drive-ins 😏
  54. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · quoteAhhh dev ops... There's no escape https://x.com/trojrobert/status/1411086224580874242

  60. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@USpeaks @robinhanson Might as well ask why cheap condos don't receive the Million Dollar Listing treatment by real estate agents 🙄
  61. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · reply@PeggyDomEnergy Not bad, given the severity of the storm- and thanks for getting my power restored before dawn the next day.
  62. Jul 3, 2021Twitter · postInfosec ppl- what tech papers and reports should I read to understand ransomware, crypto ransom payments, and how those payments can be tracked for recovery?

  65. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson @USpeaks Attention not action- my family's tax guy has not yet advised any changes, though some of the more enterprising sorts are using the media attn to push their clients to make preemptive moves.
  66. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson @USpeaks Also, voters pay attn to middle class tax policy... The rich lobby effectively for loopholes in the completely different tax rules for the rich. Your proposal creates a small highly motivated group focused on raising taxes on the rich. Of course taxes will go up.
  67. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson @USpeaks Not illegal... just dystopian. It is incredibly easy to destroy a budding relationship with a few whispers, or a quick seduction at worst. And $400M/yr incentive to convince Mike Bloomberg for ex to give up on charitable donations... not paranoia to think incentives matter
  68. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson @USpeaks This proposal will not result in career coaches for low wage workers, it will result in lobbyists arguing to increase tax rates and TSLAQ-types sabotaging relationships and charities.

  72. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@BenRatkey Useful in its versatility and brevity to refer to the majority of people who aren't into whatever niche subculture or identity is being discussed. I find it more self explanatory than "allist" to refer to people without ASD.
  73. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · repostRT @dnacuts: @balajis Anyone who thinks AI is going to be the point where out technology surpasses our ability to understand it isn't looki…

  75. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@ATabarrok (because my personal theory is that they *aren't* being sufficiently warned- ie media coverage reaching these people is not making them aware of the vastly different risk of death from covid vs risk of death from vaccine)
  76. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@ATabarrok Is it a lack of statistics education, or a rational choice driven by factors I fail to appreciate?
  77. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@DrTomFrieden Depressing that after the past year my first reaction to this tweet was "virtual" vaccination? Like via Zoom? Is this a thing? Must be some right wing scam.
  78. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@ESYudkowsky Anything I should read to understand how you come to this conclusion? From my uneducated pov I see the opposite- people wishing to offload the burden of decision-making, lacking good bossy leaders, following Dunning-Kruger-types off a cliff of misguided good intentions

  82. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · reply@robinhanson Current Federal income tax does not map well to this proposal- household unit vs individual, refundable credits meaning negative tax rates, various subsidies and lifestyle incentives baked into the code, tax avoidance via timing, and progressivity biasing coaching to top earners
  83. Jul 2, 2021Twitter · repostRT @ValaAfshar: Electric cars being charged in 1900s https://t.co/ADDhfXjoy3
  84. Jul 1, 2021Twitter · reply@mitchparkerciso Hm, I've definitely changed my mind about a candidate 30+ mins into the session... 2 of the last 3 actually (one a no-to-yes, the other a yes-to-no)

  86. Jul 1, 2021Twitter · reply@ESYudkowsky 😂 my version- date 1, present my most charming self, halo effect from self-love leads to wild infatuation... date 2, high hope are dampened by hints of incompatible reality... date 3, confirm the dawning realization that this is never gonna work.

  89. Jul 1, 2021Twitter · reply@mattparlmer I long for conservativism when I'm helping someone solve an issue- "what did you change just before it broke?" ... "Well, this, and that, and the other, and idk if.." (long list of arbitrary differences)
  90. Jul 1, 2021Twitter · reply@mattparlmer Idk, but was just thinking about the human instinct for ritual when interacting with complex systems... On one hand it's good to question arbitrary historical decisions that impose limits, on the other it is useful to minimize number of independent variables when debugging...
  91. Jul 1, 2021Twitter · quote🤣 "spacefaring Karen" ... I don't agree, but too funny not to RT... The Karens are the ppl blocking reform https://x.com/JonDMichaels/status/1410001149436907523
