Why chaos gives us purpose. Science says it’s okay to be a bit messy. Some minds need disorder to feel alive.

Data and information are never neutral. Seeing Like a State should be required reading for all statisticians, data scientists, and 'if you can't measure it, you can't manage it' cohorts. As I've mentioned before, stats is tossed into maths curricula despite being more about methodology; this talks about historicity.

Finally, you get my FULL mathematical conceptualization of a 1:1 conversion between Eorzean calendar dates and Gregorian calendar dates.

Enjoy! (Or if you hate math, suffer!) But with love. πŸ’™

EDIT: TFW you find you redefined a word instead of explaining it.

Oops, and fixed! The key moment:

  • True mathematical randomness: quarter lands on heads 100 times in a row with low probability but zero shame

  • Lived experience of randomness: actually stochasticity, not randomness

Popping FFXIV's Time Bubble: An Extradiegetic Study and Reconceptualization of the Relationship between Earth's Arrow of Time and Etheirys's

An extradiegetic study reconceptualizing the relationship between Earth's arrow of time and Etheirys's. By harmonizing evolutionary psychology with user-experience design, this article dissolves the static nature of MMO time. It introduces a functional algebraic system to convert Gregorian dates into precise moments within the Sixth Astral, Seventh Umbral, and Seventh Astral Eras, establishing a 1:1 isochronal map for narrative roleplay.

Our hatred is love. Our violence is empathy.

Another year without dialectics. Dialectics is not an end in itself. Dialectics is necessary to prevent true hatred and true violence. A community that does not understand that every coin has three sides is doomed to live in immaturity and slavery.

Our societies believe, as they always have, that they are somehow better than those that came before them. And this despite the fact that they are not even able to escape the simplest black-and-white thinking. The ancient Indus cultures managed to do this 10,000 years ago.

Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May [Shared]

Sometimes you slip through the cracks: unforeseen circumstances like an abrupt illness, the death of a loved one, a break up, or a job loss can derail a life. These periods of dislocation can be lonely and unexpected. For May, her husband fell ill, her son stopped attending school, and her own medical issues led her to leave a demanding job. Wintering explores how she not only endured this painful time, but embraced the singular opportunities it offered.

A moving personal narrative shot through with lessons from literature, mythology, and the natural world, May's story offers instruction on the transformative power of rest and retreat. Illumination emerges from many sources: solstice celebrations and dormice hibernation, C.S. Lewis and Sylvia Plath, swimming in icy waters and sailing arctic seas.
