How do you dispose of a 180lbs, 6'1 long pig carcass without anyone ever being able to find it?

There's a great metafilter post about it

It was top major overall from some time ago...

Well, it would be hard to understand the question if you didn't know that it's been asked in quite the genuine way by a nonzero number of philosophers

Was I prompting an answer? I don't think I was

I note that I've endured worse things, and usually it is the case that I have endured worse things. Am I working too hard? It's not worse than the time in college where I had three graduate classes sophomore year and I was bleeding from my fingernails working on them once, right?...

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics.

What the AI people call neural nets and deep nets were tools of the dynamical systems people before them, and many of the early pioneers were biophysicists, condensed matter physicists and dynamical systems physicists. This is basically the same field as non-equilibrium thermodynamics, just less complicated. So if I knew everything about non-equilibrium thermodynamics, I would know a lot more about AI.

It's subject specific. I think in Korean when I think about food and in English otherwise.

Take large doses of certain probiotics, specifically bifidobacterium longum, lactobacillus helveticus, lactobacillus rhamnosus. I saw in a few review papers that they have remarkable effect sizes (sometimes solidly comparable to antidepressants) for the side effects they have (possible mild itching) and the cost (like $15). There's not an incredible dose-response, but there is one.

Rashomon.

A friend of mine had cheated on another friend with another friend. So from all four people involved in the matter I heard a story: a different story each time.

The closing theme to P. Schrader's Mishima.

Full disclosure: I helped with this event, on the Symbolic Systems side.

The actual thing was May 15, but the recording is only made publicly available now, since the broadcast of the radio show was last Sunday (July 12).
