The essence of our predicament.

The party at the switch are billionaires, the large group of people is the world’s population and the individual on the track is billionaire wealth (not a person, unless we substitute a corporation, then SCOTUS treats it like human embryo).

The billionaires have welded the switch to “kill world population”

The Trolley problem is meant to tease out moral instincts in impossible situations

Is the trolley named the Kobayashi Maru?

Back in September, I tested Praktica PLC2, a camera that's been sitting on a shelf for who-knows-how-long. Everything looked and sounded just fine, but the film turned out empty like no photos were ever taken.

There were a few explanations, the most plausible being the camera didn't catch and wind the film, and I concluded I'd have to test the camera again.

And, I did that a few weeks ago… [🧵 1/6]

I just love these stories where someone is given a cancer diagnosis and decides to start living the life they always wanted.

Kinda hard to do when you have to be on infusion every other week.

I’m not sure if that’s how it works.

Then again, I’ve seen a facepalm from my H.G.A. a few times, so maybe…

I, admittedly, curse way too much, but I just adore a faux curse. When I was a kid, one of my Mom's friends was a very proper Southern lady. Instead of saying "They think their shit don't stink" she would say, "Some people think they poo poo vanilla ice cream".

What is your favorite faux curse?

I had a supervisor who would say things like “Gosh darn that freakin’ sucker…” I told him he might as well use the real words instead of their substitutes since the meaning was obvious.

Stop calling everything AI. None of it is, by any working definition of the term. Call it what it is: GIGO.

The second season of "High on the Hog," which charts how the momentous changes of the 20th century informed Black Americans' relationship with food, lands on Netflix tomorrow. Civil Eats spoke to co-hosts Stephen Satterfield and Dr. Jessica B. Harris about what the series covers, from food's role in the Great Migration to the Black Panther Party's free breakfast program for children.

Reminder that you can turn anything into a vaguely British sounding insult by adding a superlative before it.

“You utter breadstick, that’s my wife’s suitcase!”

“That bird’s a complete ventilator.”

Two weeks ago, I prophesied that would rename themselves to just , but none of you listened. Now, here we are! 😉

Anyway, congrats to @Tutanota, Tuta is a cool, modern-sounding and beautifully short name ☺️
