I’m a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

Writing a list of things I want to do at the start of the day. Don’t need to get them all done, but it just gives some direction. Things can roll over too, if they seem worth it.
Oh, cool. Thank you!
Thanks for this! Been looking for something like it. I guess it just blocks the sites though, and doesn’t block them appearing in search results?
Ah, yeah, that’s right, it was the Strike magazine article
Thanks for the insight! I might give it a crack.
I love Graeber. His book with David Wengrow, the Dawn of Everything, was definitely a worldviews shifter for me. Amazing book.
I didn’t read Bullshit Jobs, but it read an article he wrote along with it, that was great.
Great quote, excellent lesson, agreed.
I liked Slaughterhouse 5, bud fuck it was depressing. I loved Cat’s Cradle. Only read a few other short stories, I think…
Seems to get some mixed reviews, lots of people on goodreads sayng it writes off the concept of trauma?
Multi-million dollar advertising budgets from apple and Microsoft. Coordinated campaigns to embed those systems in education institutions and workplaces.
Not entirely sure how this relates to feedbacks… But if you’re interested in the paradox of tolerance, you might also find this interesting - reframing the problem as a social construct removes the paradox: https://conversational-leadership.net/tolerance-is-a-social-contract/
(note: I just skimmed that version, there might be better versions of this argument out there)
Haha, absolutely agree, and thanks for a second reason to spruik !complexity@lemmy.world in one thread 😍
Haha, sick. Count me in if you want a beta tester :)
Oh yeah, that sounds like a trip.
As an Aussie, I approve.
What’s the gist?
What does the name refer to?
A plugin that just checks to see if Lemmy has any posts pointing to the current URL would be pretty nice. So I can go and get secondary opinions if I want.
Not sure how much stress that would put on servers though. I guess probably not that much if searches can just be exact matches on URLs.
Interesting. I grew up in a science-heavy family, and eventually became a scientist. A LOT of what’s been changing my worldview recently has been a kind of deprogramming from science - reductionist science. Complexity theory in particular, as well as breaking down the dominant cultural view of linear technological progress.
I don’t have anything really super useful at the 101 level, but I’ll definitely plug some of the stuff on !complexity@lemmy.world community - it’s not necessarily introductory material, but some of it is super accessible and fun to engage with (especially some of the videos).
What’s the gist? Or, what did it change about your worldview?
