Shameless Stacker News plug: Money is the best moderator https://stacker.news/items/1498946

The climate scam primarily worked by restricting funding to scientists who came to the right conclusions and cited the right studies. In my experience, most of the researchers are honest actors.

The most divisive people, of course, were those of us who didn’t want to completely excise the medically noncompliant from society.

If you aren’t already familiar with their work, I think you’d be interested in the work of Jonathan Haidt and Arnold Kling. They’re both social scientists who were interested in understanding these different types of groups that form societies. Each of them independently found there to be three main groups that breakdown roughly along the lines you laid out. Although, something weird may have happened to the left because conformity with authority isn’t usually part of it. You would most likely be in the smaller of the three groups that approximately maps to libertarians.

I’m genuinely curious about whether I would beat Sasha in a game of 1-on-1

I have a similar approach to learning. You can get pretty far on a wide variety of things by being observant, curious, and reflective, without needing to do much memorization.

Creative people never play the song exactly like the original recording. It’s not laziness. You could learn the song if you really wanted to. You just prefer to do it your own way.

There’s an interesting book called Fake Invisible Catastrophes that talks a bit about how and why so many hysterias aren’t around things that are individually verifiable.

I agree with that whole opening segment…and still think you’re wrong. I also agree that this is the best podcast. Your interests and sentiments overlap with mine and yet you also have a different perspective than me.

You guys sure spent a lot of time being tremendously wrong about Magic vs Pistons

“You have milk?” almost killed me. This pod needs a warning “Too funny to safely listen to while driving”

Zap.

We sure did see how the Raiders D held up

Obviously, the best HR celebration for the Orioles would be a Slip N Slide into home plate.

One listener described our racism as very nuanced

Forget but never forgive

Wow, Car and k00b drop shorts!

Ironically, one of Trump’s biggest shortcomings is that he hasn’t been more vindictive.

Trump won by so much because people hate being afraid of voicing their opinions

😂 The producer had enough of me and just started the outro music.

How did you guys miss Bonds as the best baseball player without a championship?

We’re rocking along at about two rounds of draft per day

Are you sure you were watching teenage girls basketball and not the Houston Rockets?

Count me on Team Vengeance. Burn those fuckers.

What’s k00b most excited to work on, post wallets?

Crap! We forgot to cross someone off.

The only consistent usage of “Threat to Democracy” is “Threat to rule by Democrats”.

Way to model health and fitness, fellas. Car, if I were designing an immunity taco, it would have lots of garlic and be super spicy.

I don’t think k00b would passive aggressively throw shade on other bitcoiners. Who would do that?

Really appreciate how much @npub19py4fxzwr… is doing for our community. Check out his work and see if there’s something you’d like to support.

A couple of physics points. Electrons don’t really orbit in the same way planets do. They have a set of different stable probability distributions through the space around the nucleus but they aren’t moving around it. Then on gravity, it doesn’t run out because it’s not actually pulling on you. It’s how you experience the distorted space around massive objects, so the apparent pull is just objects moving along their shortest path which has become curved. The closer thing to perpetual motion is where the ground gets the energy to keep holding you up.

I’m not sure why people need Trump to have only one motivation. My base case is that he genuinely wants to be president for vanity reasons and he genuinely believes he can do it well and he enjoys grifting people and he’s been compromised in some way.

You have to permanently distrust any covid hysteric who never saw through the brainwashing.

Did you guys pretend to have a guest? That’s pretty sad.

Alternate title: Extinguishing Lifetimes of Minutes

The house construction saga really drives home how little time we get to provide for our families.

Why aren’t you for killing baby Hitler if it works out and against it if it doesn’t?
