@ArmandDoma In the US, intelligence is center-right, the officer corps is conservative, enlisted are liberal, and special forces are hard right.
In Israel, intelligence is liberal, the officer corps is center-left, enlisted are conservative, and special forces are actual communists.

@inerati If you are competent, all paths will lead eventually to engineering. Resist while you can.

@lonemapleleaf This is a real job. It pays ~$100k a year plus benefits, but you need a security clearance.

@RishiJoeSanu @inerati Yeah, this is true. TBP itself is a bad book with a few great chapters.

@trash_impostor This is a real thing on fancy wood and tile floors. It’s just called a border.

@unormal Srsly though, this effect is actually about computers. The graph shows productivity for all workers, but wages for “production” workers — i.e. non-knowledge workers. Unsurprisingly, knowledge worker productivity increased a lot as computers advanced, along with their wages.

@RadishHarmers This guy is just saying the thing you say when something bad happens. Saying allah alwakil isn't turning to religion anymore than saying cest lavie is turning to French.

@unormal agriculture is a game breaking exploit (positive)

@Upgradez @ghost_purr @ArmandDoma Feels similar to the shift in the US where people are more into authenticity and emphasizing ethnic diversity. Like eg it’s now a “cool” thing in Israel to have a traditional Yemeni wedding, where that kind of thing would be seen as lower class or provincial ~20 years ago

@CaralhoPhilly @PYMundGenealogy @ArmandDoma The black hebrews don’t have any weirder beliefs than Mormons. In the US their proselytizing can be aggressive, but they’re normal people.

@Upgradez @ArmandDoma lmao no, they’re the majority and they’re culturally dominant. They’re not the politicians or the professors, but it’s their music that plays when you turn on the radio. Like everywhere else, the mizrahi are conservative because they’re rural, less educated, and more religious.

@unormal I always travel by high horse

[Dave @_never_k]

@unormal What's wrong here is that quantifying travel risk in this way doesn't make sense, because the unit of decision making is the trip, not the vehicle. IE you can decide to go, or not go, to Taco Bell, but you can't decide to take a spaceship there.

[Dave @_never_k]

@unormal By the measure with which we consider airplane travel to be the safer than car travel, space travel is much safer than both (fatalities per vehicle-km.)
