100% solid aluminum. Needs no charging. Requires no software updates or dongles. Will last hundreds of thousands of years vs 2-3. Same size + weight as the iPhone. The new Methaphone 2 is 🔥

A social experiment! The methaphone served as a portal to opening up the convo about phone addiction and school cell phone bans 🌀 Thank you @MethaphoneNotes @ericantonow @grex for sending us one of the first methaphones!

funny, because Occam’s razor originally said, “Entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity” (the opposite of what’s described here). but today we interpret it as, “The simplest explanation is usually correct” (exactly what’s described here).
.@slatestarcodex's answer. I actually agree with this. But if making new connections and discoveries is intrinsically an NP-hard problem, then it's also less likely that some super-intelligence will rapidly exhaust the tech tree and start making nanobots.

I loved interviewing Adam Aleksic, editor and creator of @etymology_nerd. Here's a link to the video and transcript of our conversation, along with a few of his gastroetymological infographics! He caught the word bug from The Etymologicon by @Inkyfool. medium.com/the-journal-of-ga…

FISH SAUCES have always been a big way to season food, especially in times when SALT was expensive. Some of these no longer have FISH as an ingredient (SOY, HOISIN, KETCHUP) but the FISHIES linger in their names.
