  1. @courtcan How was it? I'm looking into getting a copy of *Looking Awry* by Žižek.

    More generally, I'm looking for like-minded folks who read/know Jacques Lacan and Lacan-adjacent writers and thinkers. 25 years ago, my French professor/mentor applied Lacanian theory to books, films, and...well, everything. I was/still am fascinated by it, and I want to expand my knowledge/grasp of it.

  6. An interesting short essay on choosing the time to act:

    Interesting enough that a lengthier exploration might be warranted.

  16. Data and information are never neutral. Seeing Like a State should be required reading for all statisticians, data scientists, and 'if you can't measure it, you can't manage it' cohorts. As I've mentioned before, stats is tossed into maths curricula despite being more about methodology; this talks about historicity.

  21. Finally, you get my FULL mathematical conceptualization of a 1:1 conversion between Eorzean calendar dates and Gregorian calendar dates.

    Enjoy! (Or if you hate math, suffer!) But with love. 💙

    EDIT: TFW you find you redefined a word instead of explaining it.

    Oops, and fixed! The key moment:

    • True mathematical randomness: quarter lands on heads 100 times in a row with low probability but zero shame

    • Lived experience of randomness: actually stochasticity, not randomness

  26. Our hatred is love. Our violence is empathy.
    Our hatred is love. Our violence is empathy.

    Another year without dialectics. Dialectics is not an end in itself. Dialectics is necessary to prevent true hatred and true violence. A community that does not understand that every coin has three sides is doom

  27. Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May [Shared]

    Sometimes you slip through the cracks: unforeseen circumstances like an abrupt illness, the death of a loved one, a break up, or a job loss can derail a life. These periods of dislocation can be lonely and unexpected. For May, her husband fell ill, her son stopped attending school, and her own medical issues led her to leave a demanding job. Wintering explores how she not only endured this painful time, but embraced the singular opportunities it offered.

    A moving personal narrative shot through with lessons from literature, mythology, and the natural world, May's story offers instruction on the transformative power of rest and retreat. Illumination emerges from many sources: solstice celebrations and dormice hibernation, C.S. Lewis and Sylvia Plath, swimming in icy waters and sailing arctic seas.
