Fundamentally, the human brain is an expert system that is building neural models to fit existing data and acquire predictive power (wisdom)
Conspiracy theories are a result of a brain building a bad model that overfits the data
This photo captures this process beautifully 👇
@StephenKing A wee, verdant UFO shunted to Maine’s terra, a victim of gravity’s obsessive charm. It was then held captive by and awaiting its fate from a preeminent horror story writer who perhaps also deftly weilds a knife or an axe.
@ideo@ImaginableFut I call BS on this. You've rearticulated How Might We into What if We... That isn't a solution, it's circumlocution. Also you're site is broken in places, such as filtering to see what you're doing in the US (clearly nothing). Show a concrete solution instead of wasting our time.
This is beautiful art; it looks like shards of colored glasses that sunlight might stream through. You are a photon who brings light and color into a room!
Our 13 y/o daughter did this herself. First time. She has diagnosed severe depression. I’d like to see how many people would encourage her along with her mom and me. Can you please take a moment to like or retweet so I can blow her mind with positivity? Thank u🙏🏻
@profgalloway More reduction in workforce predicted. Just what working class Americans need to hear and fear during a pandemic. Gotta love Bezos’ ethos: plow forward with maximum disruptive velocity and society will have to follow. (Even with shitty UI/IA/AI.)
Thinking of Jacob Blake's family. Thinking of the Kenosha community. Thinking of Black folks across the country falling asleep to this news and those who will be waking up to it. I’m sad. I’m furious. I’m tired of seeing this happen over and over and over and over and over again.
@claudiamconwayy I wish you the best. Emancipation is a bold move when you realize your fait accompli is dire and your raison d’etre is derived from a parent’s ill chosen choices. You are articulate, and I sincerely hope you win this battle.
Arctic Sea Ice melting over the last 35 years.
If this scares you, GOOD.
Fear is what gets people as a collective to take action.
🌍 can NOT wait any longer for a #GreenNewDeal.
Who’s with me?
After terrorist assholes hit the World Trade Center, 2,606 people died. The country came together: Democrats AND Republicans. Now 57% of Republicans call 176,000 dead from COVID-19 "acceptable losses?" What happened to you, America?
@BernieSanders This can't go on any longer.
We need a general strike for M4A + UBI, and to stop all evictions. We also need to demand that the senate pass H.R.1. This whole broken mess needs to change immediately so that the govt actually responds to our interests.
Nancy Pelosi leaving Napa to go to Martha’s Vineyard so her and Joe Kennedy can plan how to stop the Green New Dream Or Whatever https://t.co/VYNzOQFRS6
