  1. I finished reading the first book of the year.

    Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There is definitely food for thought coming from the book.

    I have already made changes to my life and said no a few times.

  2. 📙 Essentialism by Gregory McKeown is an interesting book.

    I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to think clearly about their chooses.

    Think: ‘I choose to’, not ‘I have to’.

  4. My 8 year old son has fallen in love with this old laptop that honestly isn’t useful for that much as the speed and wifi is so slow.

    But he says he wants to learn how to code on it.

    @codemonkeymike yes, I would recommend learning Racket. The Racket language is relatively lightweight compared to modern app development frameworks such as VSCode so runs nice and fast on older hardware, and it is designed specifically for teaching coding. There are some nice books aimed at kids for teaching Racket as well:

    It is about as easy as learning BASIC was when I was a kid.

  6. Today's #paperOfTheDay is "Why there is Nothing rather than something: A theory of the cosmological constant" from 1988. Like yesterday's paper, it deals with the intersection between quantum field theory and #generalRelativity, but the 30 years between them clearly show. Coleman's 1988 paper is an argument in the style of that time (which structurally is quite similar to much of the older #renormalon literature): Heuristic manipulations of formal objects such as the wave function of the universe, or divergent sums over all spacetime geometries. The outcome of this argument is that if #wormholes exist (caused by quantum effects at a scale that is much smaller than observations, but larger than the Planck scale), they can drive the cosmological constant to zero in an Euclidean path integral formulation of general relativity. As always with Coleman, the language is quite funny and frank about the paper's limitations: He writes "Although I find this theory in many ways very attractive, I must honestly stress its speculative character. It rests on wormhole dynamics and the Euclidean formulation of quantum gravity. This is doubly a house built on sand. [...] the Euclideon formulation of gravity is not a subject with firm foundations and clear rules of procedure; indeed, it is more like a trackless swamp". Observations like these have by now, 30 years later, led to a style of theoretical physics that is much more systematic and mathematical than in the 1980s, but also sometimes less intuitive. #dailyPaperChallenge doi.org/10.1016%2F0550-3213(88

  7. Myself and frequent collaborator @codemonkey_uk took part in the #1pRPGjam this weekend. My first time designing under such extreme time constraints.

    It was tough, but a lot a fun!

  15. from Philly ABC

    Just us at Iffy Books (319 N. 11th St. #2I) at 6:30pm on Monday, March 13th to send letters of solidarity to American Indian Movement elder and boarding school survivor Leonard Peltier . February 27th to March 8th of this year marks 50 years since the Lakota standoff with oppressive colonial forces at Wounded Knee. Wounded Knee is also where, on December 29, 1890, the 7th Calvary massacred approximately 200 unarmed Lakota of Chief Bigfoot’s band. The gathering in 1973 was in response to the oppressive conditions forced on indigenous communities by the Bureau of Indian Affairs– the escalation into a standoff typifies the aggressive stance of government agents towards native people advocating for themselves.

    Leonard was a member of the American Indian Movement active in the 1970s. It is his involvement in supporting rights for indigenous people that set the stage for the accusation that he participated in the killing of FBI agents. It’s unconscionable that he’s been left to rot in a federal penitentiary for nearly half a century after being convicted on false evidence . In 2009, Leonard had his first and only parole hearing. He was given a 25-year hit, an exorbitant length that is rarely, if ever, given. His legal team and many supporters worldwide are now seeking executive clemency for him. Let’s send him some love to fortify his strength and resilience, and lend support for his fight for freedom.

    Snacks and letter-writing supplies will be provided. If you cannot make the event, drop Leonard a line at:

    Leonard Peltier #89637-132 USP Coleman I P.O. Box 1033 Coleman, FL 33521

    We will also send a birthday card to another elder political prisoner born in March: Ruchell Magee (the 17th).

  16. Oops?

    "Bak-Coleman and others say the reformers should have seen that their claims and concerns could be weaponized by antiscience movements, and done more to prevent that. 'The writing was on the wall in huge letters,' says Stephan Lewandowsky, a cognitive scientist at the University of Bristol, who points to attempts by the tobacco industry to introduce 'sound science' legislation and sponsor 'research integrity' symposia as early as the 1990s.

    Without overenthusisam progress arguably may be impossible, but hype also often leads to fits and starts.
