Is that different than a "Croque Monsieur"? For whatever reason I've been watching Jacques Pépin videos recently. The crust on his "Croque Monsieur" is incredible.

Not to mention the stillness and silence of new fallen snow. Probably the closest in life we come to the stillness and silence of death.

Have you looked at MetaFilter? I've been a lurker there for years, but have never contributed so I don't know what that process looks like. But their tagline is "Community Weblog". It might be worth checking out.

This looks really cool. Bookmarked. I hope I can make some time to play with it. Nice work.

If I remember correctly I took the interviewer's question to mean "now that you're aware of these cognitive biases are you still affected by them?" not "do you experience cognitive biases?". I don't see the first question at odds with the universality claim. The latter would be.

"Kahnemann had the intellectual honesty"

I once heard an interviewer ask him if Kahneman was still susceptible to cognitive biases after reading the book. He said something to the effect of "absolutely, they're tough to escape". I really appreciated that. People that recognize and acknowledge the fallibility of their own minds are a breath of fresh air.

"Stand by Me" was based on "The Body" from that same book. Great collection.

The fact that I want to delete it infuriates me. The fact that you can't delete the app infuriates me more.

I open it semi-regularly with some naive hope that it won't be garbage.

Andrew Huberman did an episode in October on the lymphatic system. I learned a lot. Highly recommend.

As someone unfamiliar with this field, I'm amazed at how readable this is. Must be a great professor.

Aphex Twin's "Digeridoo" is incredible. It's a 4-song EP so it repeats often, but that's a feature for me.

This is neat. I could picture the book in my mind though I haven't seen it or pictures of it in ages.

This article corrected my thinking though. I always thought those sketches were of diatoms. I had never heard of radiolarians before. Neat stuff.
