@GuyDudeman I think I just looked at the latest ones back then. From what I can tell looking at the first ones, it's about the same.

What do you like about it?

@GuyDudeman
I take by this that you like Diesel Sweeties: Did you want to share what you like about it or something?

Just needed a place to put this:
On Free Will and QM
14 July 2018
The question of free will in the face of deterministic laws of physics sometimes brings up quantum mechanics and the so-called uncertainty principle as a away to escape the strictures of a mechanistic theory. I think such an appeal is not necessary though. In fact, an effective free will can be achieved through information hiding and the limits of computation. First, to say a system, A, has free will means that, at any point in time, there is no observer which can simulate A faster than A can evolve in real time. Note that A can be a classically deterministic system: if the evolution of A's subset of the universe is as fast as possible or if all the observers must lack sufficient information about A to simulate it faster than A can evolve, then A can still have free will.

@ClaireLamman sweet! I recall seeing photos of your pie and jwst sculpture and being floored. very cool to get a peek at your process

Every once in a while, I just remember that we have humans continuously living and working in space and think how effing cool that is.

I missed this initially. I think I heard a short statement about this on NPR, but I didn't really process it until I listened to the Houston We Have a Podcast episode about it.

@TheConversationUS totally support the message, but why is Superman cradling that boy's face?

pretty cool song. heard it a few times before I really appreciated it, but it's one of my radio favorites of the past year

I know there was a bit of mockery about those massive screens they use to replace glass doors in the freezer aisles of some stores back when they were first introduced, but I saw them in person recently and they're actually... still a really dumb idea. It's so dumb.
