Really excited to see where neuromorphic hardware goes, especially photonics.

Almost too much at this point. Gonna be curious to see how everyone is syncing because the built in service is dogshit.

Where do we cop one?

Where we watching?

Is that fucking Gilbert?

Who the fuck pulls a gun and then sets it down next to the person they’re threatening

There was a ton of hippie theorizing at the time acid really hit big that it could revolutionize things if there was mass adoption because basically it makes you really silly and joyful, and unable to take anything seriously. I genuinely think that it was a threat of some sort, that the threat contributed to the need for a war on drugs.

Ok this is good to know, because I could see that there had to be some reason it was so popular with Israelis but I have no idea what.

Probably the greatest idea so far. Flyover while blasting Esa Mighty.

That sucks so bad man, I’m sorry.

Why aren’t you doing what you need to do? Do you really need to do all of it? What’s the one thing you need to do, will it be that difficult to start to do it?

This but adding don’t buy a super large one (like 13in) as no accessories are made for that size

I’ve been reading The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity by David Graeber, and David Wengrow. While I haven’t finished it yet, it’s an excellent analysis of how Human societies actually formed based on anthropological and archeological evidence.

Basically everything that Sapiens should have been, and they call out the lib version of Human history regularly.

Really upset that further books will likely never develop due to the death of Graeber.

The explanation I’ve always heard was that it was his response to otakus jerking off to anime characters. I.e. women who can’t hurt you with rejection. This is who he sees them as.

From an article in which he is interviewed:

Anno understands the Japanese national attraction to characters like Rei as the product of a stunted imaginative landscape born of Japan’s defeat in the Second World War. “Japan lost the war to the Americans,” he explains, seeming interested in his own words for the first time during our interview. “Since that time, the education we received is not one that creates adults. Even for us, people in their 40s, and for the generation older than me, in their 50s and 60s, there’s no reasonable model of what an adult should be like.” The theory that Japan’s defeat stripped the country of its independence and led to the creation of a nation of permanent children, weaklings forced to live under the protection of the American Big Daddy, is widely shared by artists and intellectuals in Japan. It is also a staple of popular cartoons, many of which feature a well-meaning government that turns out to be a facade concealing sinister and more powerful forces.

Anno pauses for a moment, and gives a dark-browed stare out the window. “I don’t see any adults here in Japan,” he says, with a shrug. “The fact that you see salarymen reading manga and pornography on the trains and being unafraid, unashamed or anything, is something you wouldn’t have seen 30 years ago, with people who grew up under a different system of government. They would have been far too embarrassed to open a book of cartoons or dirty pictures on a train. But that’s what we have now in Japan. We are a country of children.”
