For months, everyone has been talking about Peter Thiel’s secretive Antichrist lectures in Nashville. @gb_rango attended all four off-the-record lectures, held inside the historic Grand Lodge of Tennessee Free and Accepted Masons. Now, with Thiel’s blessing: a comprehensive, firsthand reconstruction of his sprawling theory of the end times, from AI doomers and one-world government to the fate of America. piratewires.com/p/inside-pet…

Her has aged so well because the heart of the story is about divorce with some of the most attractive women to ever exist. One is real, one is a machine, but both move on because Theodore can't keep up. It's a great story to process our own anxiety about being left behind by tech

Her (2013) is still the only good piece of art thinking about LLMs and that's completely an accident

I'm fascinated by the rise of frictionmaxxing as a response to a frictionless life. We engineer away inconvenience, only to discover that some of the friction we removed was part of what made life feel alive in the first place
Kristy Tillman@KristyTOct 19
Someone could probably write a book (if they haven’t already) about the cycle of technology productizing the removal of friction in the name of convenience only for us to discover that the friction was a load-bearing part of the social compact.

The world of digital animals always brings me joy ... and I thought I'd share some rather interesting-looking specimens I found today as part of my latest science project...

three stories about times that i FUMBLED THE BAG (maybe you can relate) 1. Steve Jobs used my song to open a press conference. 2. I made a jingle for AirBnB when they were pre-funding in 2008. 3. I made (and lost) $2.4 million selling my songs as NFTs.

G.K. Chesterton on mysticism
Mysticism keeps men sane. As long as you have mystery you have health; when you destroy mystery you create morbidity. The ordinary man has always been sane because the ordinary man has always been a mystic. He has permitted the twilight. He has always had one foot in earth and the other in fairyland. He has always left himself free to doubt his gods; but (unlike the agnostic of to-day) free also to believe in them. He has always cared more for truth than for consistency. If he saw two truths that seemed to contradict each other, he would take the two truths and contradiction along with them. His spiritual sight is stereoscopic, like his physical sight: he sees two different pictures at once and yet sees all the better for that. Thus, he has always believed that there was such a thing as fate, but such a thing as free will also.
