I think I am officially a jaded New Yorker. I just stood near a woman on the Q train who started full-on urinating while standing up (wearing a dress) and calculated that I could easily step over the streams at the next stop. so I just stood there

@__apf__ my seven-year-old spent some long-saved allowance money on a metal detector and eagerly uses it every chance he gets with his best buddy. they have found nothing of interest so far, let alone value. they love the hunt nonetheless

@TylerAlterman fascinating to read how diverse these replies are... I haven't had serious health issues but I've gradually become much healthier over the last ~10y and I attribute most of it to diet. I eat ~80% organic and actually try to hit RDAs for nutrients, which goes a long way IMO.

Some initial thoughts, and a complicated mix of feelings.

1. Wow. I mean, Erdos problems are cool (I genuinely mean that), I didn't know about the Jacobian conjecture before it got disproved. But this newest batch from OpenAI hits home in a way the previous announcements did not.

New circuit lower bounds? A simple, easy-to-describe non-sofic group? Hardness of approximation for CVP without needing a unique games-like conjecture? I didn't just hear about these problems from my friends or from seminars. I feel their importance in my bones; I deeply care about the answers to these questions.

@TW1NKD3STR0YER fantastic name for a restaurant

@NorthstarBrain @WR4NYGov @bosqui American here, I fully agree with you ... my stomach was destroyed for years, which is why I try to eat ~only certified organic food, which is widely available in grocery stores in big cities and online, and I think the quality is generally very good

@__apf__ @engineering_bae (FWIW I lived for years in Moscow and never drank the tap water — most people there don’t, or at least did not at the time — and I didn’t find it to be a big deal to get giant jugs of water delivered each week. it was a standard thing to do)

@heshie @nikitabier lol, sup Heshie

[Zeke @ezekielp]

hey @nikitabier , I love that I see lots of translated posts from people around the world now. so so cool. great work

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@maiab @Romy_Holland one of the nurses said sometimes boys are a bit slower than girls when it comes to this 😅 not sure if statistics back that up

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@Romy_Holland @maiab not sure about this generally but I'll say that our younger kid was born at ~36 weeks after my wife's water broke and she was induced, and he did not have the necessary surfactant. he spent two weeks in the NICU with a breathing tube

@pitdesi this is so cool. thanks for all the videos

@nickcammarata oh and I do not take acid nor have I ever lol

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@nickcammarata haha FWIW I am 39 and still love new music. I also shudder at the thought of becoming ossified. it is not inevitable

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@Suhail is this a Kevin Durant subtweet

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@Aella_Girl just want to say there are many people out here who love what you do and respect you a lot

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@nickcammarata what bread / wheat do you eat now? I'm pretty strict about only eating organic and I think it helps a ton with the way it affects me. I now eat a lot of bread (~half a loaf a day) after having been GF years ago and I feel good

[Zeke @ezekielp]

@yishan I work at a small-ish company (~100 employees) and we have unlimited PTO, and I think it basically works well, because 1) our busy periods are highly seasonal and 2) the company is lean, so there are no real slackers around to game the system

[Zeke @ezekielp]

totally agree with this. what a cool way of putting it. it's also weird because i think when not clinging / tensing, you drastically increase your *capacity* to accumulate (energy, love, etc), and to like strengthen your deflated body

[Nick @nickcammarata]

my model of clinging and aversion (or being triggered) is the pufferfish. it puffs you up, makes it hard for you to move around or do anything. stay deflated
