@MrGeorgeFrancis Ironically, we are opting in a radical form of eugenics, where only the fittest get to produce and produce in disproportionate number.

while we are refusing a benign form of eugenics which gonna lift all, through biotech.

The two premodern religions were ancestor worship and nature worship (see "The Ancient City" by Fustel de Coulanges). The two postmodern religions are evidently identitarianism and environmentalism. Is this a coincidence, or something deeper?

An Internet news outlet is asking a lot of people I know, and some I don't, what I've been up to lately. Lord knows what they'll ultimately publish, so I thought I'd just write this instead. -->

Mainly I try to learn a lot. For example, the political events of 2014-2016 made clear to me that I didn't understand politics at all, so I deliberately withdrew from political engagement and fundraising.

It’s just over a month for #COP27, and Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser, tongue in cheek, has a particular view about the energy transition:

“If you think about it, we are transitioning to coal”

(According to the @IEA, global coal demand will rise to a fresh all-time high in 2023)

@millerman Twitter is real life. Just not representative of the whole population.

We surveyed academics in top 10 unis in 4 democracies. We found nearly 60% back mandatory "diversity statements", which require scholars to commit to explicitly ideological goals. Haidt is right to call it out. Universities are losing sight of what they are.
