I like to imagine Sebald somewhere in the background of Alan Partridge’s 90s Norfolk

very odd that however many times this happens there's zero push to reform them. instead it's time to ban pictures of facesitting and teenagers on ebay metro.co.uk/2026/11/11/secon…

which of these options would you prefer: 1) kill 400 rationalists, with certainty 2) kill 500 rationalists, 90% probability; kill no rationalists, 10% probability

"model" they are employing, simply a flat single number, and then they expect you to take these cute little thought experiments with stipulated probabilities seriously, as if the whole rhetorical point isn't to conflate the stipulated probabilities with their nonsense>

invented probabilities, and also to suggest that you can and should make vast and radical movements in the world, quite possibly against your own strong moral instincts also based upon those nonsense probabilities

everyone either thinks AGI is happening next year and society will be entirely upturned or that the financial bubble will pop and AI tools will disappear forever. is anyone brave enough to take the middle position of "GDP will go up by 5% and computers are now easier"?

Tough call. Doolittle onward co-released by a major. Surfer Rosa was one of the ones where we were like “this is chiefly alternative rock.” Albini we put to use in different strokes elsewhere on the list. Would maybe be on there if we had more Rough Trade or Touch and Go bands

well what's funny is that as an american genre it's basically defined by a sort of anglophilia, and then british bands were largely banned from the list. lol

The best bands that people are saying should’ve been on the indie rock list are not indie rock. The Dead C, A.R. Kane, 4AD releases from the 1980s, stuff that is more clearly in the lineage of hardcore. Maybe you don’t actually like indie rock, which is probably a good thing.

the mathematical sense of arbitrary is quite funny. complaining about arbitrary criminal sentencing and pulling out a measure theory proof, etc,

you are given a button. you can press it, killing an effective altruist, or pass it on to another random person, doubling the number of EAs it kills. this continues until the button is pressed. do you guarantee getting at least one of them, or trust in the evil in men's hearts?

Explains a lot about why people hate EAs tbh
