so so cool and the spirit of this project (which seems to speak to many other commenters too) really reminds me of this recent hackernews post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41395413 'The secret inside One Million Checkboxes'
the creativity in endeavors like these really just elicits total joy. it's infectious!
i was fascinated with the criticality accident that claimed Slotin's life when i first learned about it. in particular, the schematic estimating everyone's distance to the apparatus and how much radiation they may have been exposed to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Slotin#/media/File:Sloti...
there was a second sketch made from that drawing which i also found fascinating. it doesn't add any additional information or analytical ability, but is just a sort of interesting and slightly dark translation of a rote schematic diagram into an artistic rendering of the event: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Slotin#/media/File:Sloti...
I searched around for awhile trying to find the purpose and/or author of that second sketch but to no avail. however i did use it as the cover for an EP i released. please enjoy!

There are better ways to exercise your brain that will be many more times better than Calculus.

the ways that you list are great brain exercises but there's no good reason or research that suggests they are 'many more times better than Calculus'.
and continuing to call it a 'useless subject' is also totally unjustified. if i just that art appreciation is a useless subject because 99% of people are not going to get a job writing movie reviews for a major publication or curating exhibits for museums is that sufficient justification to say 'art appreciation is useless. source: me'?

i love Deloused in the Comatorium and i think it's pretty distinct from this story. they really only share a few common themes. and the story telling methods are -completely– different from one another.
as for ZHL personally, this is the 1st thing i've read of his so it's news to me, but if true that's a bummer.
i volunteered for a weekend activity with this organization just by using the links on the site. i am not a POC and indicated that i'd be willing to offer technical or just logistical help. i ended up being a classroom assistant for a robotics camp. overall good experience.
I assume you're talking about Republican administered election facilities and since they have a well documented seething hatred toward Biden you're suggesting that Biden actually won by a _much greater margin_ except for the fraud that no doubt occurred in Trump's favor.
Max Tegmark was on the Sean Carroll podcast recently, talking about the different types of multiverse we could postulate may exist[0]. I found the quanta article fascinating, and I don't believe it's strictly speaking 'circular'. It can also be the case that multiple solutions exist mapping the relationships between a given set of fundamental laws. Prof. Tegmark discusses this in the '4th level' of multiverse which examines whether it's right to talk about a multiverse of all possible mathematically consistent universes.
Your personal experiences sound very interesting and I don't mean to detract at all from the effect they've had on you and many other people. However, I was a neuro Phd student and did many 'default mode network' studies using fMRI and it is -very- early to be making claims about the nature and/or purpose of this network, or how it's perturbed by any experience: psychedelic or not. The level of temporal and spatial resolution of data gathering of this and other brain networks is entirely too coarse to make legitimate inferences. At this point in the literature it is a very good story with a few compelling examples but not nearly complete enough to make real claims.
not exactly related to the IOT issue in the article, but the actual lifespan of the drivetrain of these EVs is -really- appealing [0]. unfortunate that we have to be worried about the peripheral software issues and can't just get the benefits of the more environmentally friendly and reliable cars
