Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Tuesday, 16-Apr-2024 11:57:51 JST Zane Selvans Just 13 short years after inviting #BoulderCouncil candidates over to the Masala Co-op for tea and cakes to discuss repealing occupancy limits that discriminate against unrelated people, and 28 years after Cedar Barstow got busted for living in an intentional community in her own home and was sentenced to community service, which she used to help found the Boulder Housing Coalition.

Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Tuesday, 09-Apr-2024 00:27:27 JST Zane Selvans @ntnsndr It's odd to me that the side which is weirdly zealous about gender being thought of in a very particular way is the one throwing around "gender ideology" as a label.

Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Wednesday, 03-Apr-2024 16:16:27 JST Zane Selvans @ntnsndr The turnaround time on this thing is killer. Like if we want to go for Phase II I think we should start on the application as soon as we get Phase I!

Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Friday, 23-Feb-2024 13:50:19 JST Zane Selvans My (MacOS) disk got full. I removed more than 300GB of stuff, and my disk remains full. WTAF? Are we no longer allowed to delete files?

Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Sunday, 24-Dec-2023 04:09:59 JST Zane Selvans I think I read too many economics & policy #books in 2023 and I feel like it rotted my brain a little bit. So... I'm looking for #Science and #NaturalHistory reading recommendations for next year. Maybe especially outside of biology since a few of the books on the list so far are:
* Your Inner Fish (Neil Shubin)
* Kindred: Neaderthal Life, Love, Death, & Art (Rebecca Wragg Sykes)
* I Contain Multitudes (Ed Yong)
* A Planet of Viruses (Carl Zimmer) -

Zane Selvans (zaneselvans@social.coop)'s status on Saturday, 23-Dec-2023 16:40:52 JST Zane Selvans One thing that #Piketty pointed out in Capital and Ideology that seems obvious in retrospect but that I'd never considered is just how much wealth there is that our civilization has accumulated, but that shows up on nobody's balance sheet.
How much would a copy of today's Wikipedia have been "worth" 2000 years ago? Or even 200 years ago? How much are Maxwell's equations worth? Or germ theory? Or quantum mechanics? Or understanding evolution? Or the fast Fourier transform? 🧵 1/n

A longer write-up of the Polish train manufacturer who pre-installed malware that caused its trains to fake breaking down as a punishment to their owners if they were ever serviced by a 3rd party shop... based on the GPS coordinates of known 3rd party shops.
