Lo strano caso dei forni che si svegliano da soli (e cuociono l'aria)

Money quote: "One owner’s oven turned on around 2:30AM and broiled at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for hours while he slept, and he only noticed when he woke up four hours later. Nest cam footage captured the exact moment it turned on: the oven illuminates his dark, empty kitchen in a truly Black Mirror-like recording. This owner says his wife baked a pie around 11:30PM the night of the preheating incident, but she turned the oven off once she took the pie out."

Psicologici, psichiatri, medici, studiosi della mente. La più anziana sessuologa d'America è probabilmente l'ultima di una lunga genia di donne e uomini di origine germanica e di religione ebraica che, a partire dall'inizio del novecento, hanno costruito aspetti cruciali della società statunitense: dalla pubblicità alla psicanalisi, passando per tutto il resto.

Money quote: "There is no such thing as “normal,” Dr. Ruth would interrupt, emphatically, empathetically, again and again, until it became a refrain. Her age (she was born in 1928) and her accent (German, with a hint of Hebrew) suggested that she might have a particularly profound comprehension of how notions of “normalcy” could be made into weapons of cruelty. She had no patience for sanctimony, and no time for people who preached compassion but failed to practice it. Sexually Speaking was a lighthearted show with a serious implication: The line between sexual freedoms and freedoms of the other variety is not as stark as it might seem. A Ph.D. rather than a medical doctor, Dr. Ruth refused to take refuge in euphemism. She found clarity in the haze. There are so many things, her life had taught her, that are more important than politeness."

È il mix di aspettative e di pratica nella realtà che ci sta avvelenando, ci nutri di contenuti paranoici e zuccherini, ci porta all'isolamento e forse (probabilmente) alla follia. Poche, sentite note sul perché gli smartphone fanno male e rendono più soli

Money quote: "The smartphone represents a pretty dramatic shift in our expectations of companionship and entertainment — and a shift in how we respond to feelings like boredom and loneliness. Because of the promises of the digital age, when we experience those feelings, we're more surprised and alarmed than our ancestors were."

I mammoni. Che storia avvincente.

Money quote: "The reason for men staying at home may be as much economic as it is cultural: the Italian workforce suffers from a lack of upward mobility, which has caused the job market to stagnate as older generations stay in their jobs well beyond 60, the typical age of retirement. As a result, Italian millennials are both overeducated and underemployed. As of 2019, youth unemployment in the country of 60 million is at 31.9 percent. While Milan has more work opportunities for young people than other Italian cities, the average cost of renting a one-bedroom apartment is around $1,100, making staying at home a practical solution for young men saving money for their future."

Cose -spero- utili: tutto l'anno in una pagina sola: One page calendar 2020

Questo tizio scansiona indice e tavola dei contenuti di tutti i suoi libri importanti, fa l'OCR, e trasforma così la conoscienza puntuale in fili annodati a un gigantesco telaio di rimandi. Perché cercare un punto di conoscenza dentro la propria biblioteca è una cosa diversa che non cercarlo su Google.

Money quote: "Every time I tried to look up something, I have to search the index page and table of contents manually. Page by page, for every book on your bookshelf, such a PITA. Are you not believe me? Let's say you have five algorithms books, and you want to find out which book as a definition about k-d tree. Can you feel the pain?"

Storia di un uomo molto, molto peculiare. Dal rapimento degli alieno fino a tutto il resto.

https://medium.com/s/reasonable-doubt/he-was-supposed-to-be-the-next-stephen-king-then-the-aliens-came-afd7195e0b49

money quote: ““There’s a lot about my life I cannot talk about,” Strieber told me shortly after he let me into the living room of his Santa Monica apartment. “There’s more that I don’t wish to talk about.” And yet, over the next three hours, he talked about it anyway. About being a broke aspiring writer in New York in the 1970’s. About quantum physics and classical music. About the mysterious biomechanical implant behind his ear that helped him knock out a multi-volume book about Hitler that he sees as an allegory for Donald Trump’s evil deeds. About the death of his wife Anne, whose spirit, he believes, remains with him. “She’s in some ways closer to me now than she ever could have been when she was physically alive,” he told me.”
