The amount of dysfunction in government is directly proportional to how much time you spend thinking about it.

@NickMilo Beyond that, tethering two aircraft together is always a bad idea for many reasons (turbulence, for one) and then actually going slow enough to capture a drifting object that won’t completely shred it or tangle it up in your aircraft net would be quite the feat.

@nntaleb You guys, I’m starting to think @nntaleb might not be a very nice person…

@markgranza Roasting someone for reading classics… Congrats, this is the most pretentious tweet of 2023 so far and it may stand for a while.

@SusChecked C’mon, man, you’re talking like you’ve never read Sun Tzu before. Lol. Life’s good, despite the chaos… you?

[Josh Lane @JoshLane]

@SusChecked Right but nukes and US boots on the ground are not mutually exclusive. I sincerely hope our leaders are considering that Russia could use that option. As implausible as it may seem, you need only to make that miscalculation once.

[Josh Lane @JoshLane]

@SusChecked Yeah, I don’t disagree with that at all. I’m just saying the game changed when MAD entered the set of possible outcomes. What leaders say today may sound like leaders from a pre-nuclear era, but the stakes have been nearly infinitely raised.

[Josh Lane @JoshLane]

@SusChecked You forgot: “Truman drops atomic bomb on Japan” in between WWII and President Biden��s statement. You think you’re looking at a pattern, but it’s really a whole different game, brother.

@ameliaboone They’re only useful in VERY small corners of the world. Grew up in southern AZ - very dry but very hot. Above 90 degrees and their utility drops exponentially. 100 degrees + and you only are adding humidity to your boiling house. Maybe they’ve gotten better tho(?)

@TheAnnaGat Somewhat confused about intimacy = silence. Can you elaborate on “silence” in this context? Also, what about communication? I find the most intimate parts of my relationships are the ability to communicate freely and without expectation or judgement.

[Josh Lane @JoshLane]

@KristinaNette Ambiguity in communication has led to literal wars. Don’t let blood be spilled from your failure to use a correct comma. Just sayin...

@monicalimco “All problems are interpersonal problems” and “the separation of tasks” were incredibly impactful ideas for me. Those have stuck with me far more than most “big idea” books.

@SusChecked @cjboxauthor Go west, young man.

@Plinz I guess a division in time distortion is novel. Great. Now I have to watch and apparently I have an appointment with disappointment.

[Josh Lane @JoshLane]

@Plinz Time distortions during violent visual sequences hit peak in the Matrix series (for me). What do you call something so novel and impactful that it instantly becomes a cliché when used elsewhere?

@bigdogpausz @SamHarrisOrg Have most of the ppl responding here not seen the footage? Do you think all of the people with similar feelings made it to DC on the 6th? Do you think there are none that agree with the actions but didn’t participate? How violent does America have to get before you get worried?
