most trajectories are not orbits
most functions are not differentiable
most programs do nothing

the universe is a desolate wilderness. we just live in the interesting/useful/meaningful parts of it.

@m1shti It has a use, but any "content creator" better be able to describe their work more specifically.

[Noah Tye @noahlt]

@m1shti "Content" as a term arose from social networks and other "user-generated (ahem) content" platforms, which let users just post anything, so platform owners wanted to talk about "the stuff being posted" when they didn't know what it would be.

All the enthusiasm and budget going in to high-speed rail should instead go into making airport security go faster (eg, streamline or reduce the security checks)

@paularambles they tend to be from places easily accessible from taxpayer-funded roads, though

@jazzychad Yeah when they announced the animations they made it seem very ambitious, but it’s mostly bounces

@ShriramKMurthi Really!? I guess I am the ignorant one here

[Noah Tye @noahlt]

Imagine facing a totally normal engineering problem, but instead of solving it, giving it a cutesy name from a children’s picture book.

Jensen Huang is the rhetorical successor to Jackie Chan: a ruthlessly hard worker who will kick your ass while giving you a disarmingly pained smile

@moultano And also because building one necessarily destroys another

@andy_matuschak @ElChaudhry The current models have a very particular em dash style — one that true em dash lovers can easily recognize!

@hthieblot The original LEGO marketing site. In 96 they had an embedded Java applet that rendered a VRML world that you could explore. A whole little 3D world in a website.

@andy_matuschak It's crazy to me that the Battlestar-Galactica-style “who’s secretly a robot?” intrigue turned out to be one of the very first consequences of deploying AI.

@paularambles inflammatory post

@morallawwithin His poetry is awful, he should stick to…
