Shocked to hear that @Ostrov_A is among the seriously wounded -- he was a frequent poster on this platform, and I met him personally in LA. Join me in wishing him a quick recovery -- I'm worried him entering an Australian hospital.

En la época que me tocó crecer en El Salvador, esto era impensable en el centro de San Salvador. Hasta las madres decían: "mijo, evita ir al centro que está peligroso", ir de noche era impensable. Enorme cambio. Al fin veo mi país civilizado. 😭

Massive new @Nature study: castration increases lifespan across vertebrates (zoo mammals, rodents, wild animals). This aligns with historical human data: Korean eunuchs lived 14-19 years longer than their peers. Your move, @Bryan_Johnson.

Grade inflation, rampant disability claims, muddled responses to violent protesters, hyperinflationary tuition, mandatory diversity statements that no one thinks are a good idea... American higher education is adrift, with no one thinking clearly about the mission of the
