Hey ho, long time no see. Music, with the relaxing bleeps of emancipator.
Baralku by emancipator (bandcamp.com)
Around the wild wild interwebs,
- Kottke: Offering a more progressive definition of freedom.
- SSC launched an "Adversarial Collaboration Contest", where "two people with opposite views on a controversial issue work together to present a unified summary of the evidence and its implications". 👍 idea.
- Are islam and liberal democracy compatible?
- Should childhood vaccination be mandatory?, which prompted me to read about the Amish.
- Around bullshit jobs:
- [fr] Monsieur Phi - Éthique animale : la probabilité d'une catastrophe (suite).
- “Final Offer”, a sci-fi short about interstellar negotiation, funz.
- [fr] Anne Archet - Senryūs électoraux, Autres senryūs électoraux.
- SMBC: Robot captcha.
- Tech:
- Intel publishes microcode security patches, no benchmarking or comparison allowed! HN.
- jwz: Major open source project revokes access to companies that work with ICE. Problematic for e.g. Debian packaging but not wholly unreasonable. Link to GitHub PR.
