It might as well be my own hand on the madman’s lever—and yet, while I grieve for all innocents, my soul is at peace, insofar as it’s ever been at peace about anything.

Psychopath.

    I recently searched “shtetl” on facebook to see what my friends had ever shared from the blog, literally only three posts:

    • A 2014 post titled “eigenmorality” which I skimmed just now, appears to be a rationalist coded social credit system, this is probably not what students are looking for
    • A post titled “NSA in P/poly: The Power of Precomputation”. This appears to have useful information about cryptography that I don’t have the expertise or energy to parse, also it’s from 2015.
    • A 2016 post about the 8000th busy beaver number, bringing us full circle.

    So in terms of the content worth sharing and alternatives, it appears it’s just the CS based stuff.

    E: Joke answer: clearly the go-to contrablog is Scott’s nemesis Arthur Chu’s archived twitter feed, or just watching Jeopardy episodes.
