Read this. After reading it I feel like it's triggered something on the tip of my tongue, an insight or thought that needs expressing but I can't quite articulate it. It strikes me as very important but idk why yet. A beneficial unease like reading o'connor, vonnegut or heinlein.
I've been thinking a lot lately about how I got where I am, how staggering it would be to my 19-year-old self, and how unfair it all actually is. So, here's a 2021 update on my 2012 post "Girls and computers":

In honour of one of the greatest blogs of all time #slatestarcodex, we should nominate our favourite essays. Two of mine were “Conflict vs Mistake Theorists” and that Kafkaesque one about getting IRB approval.
What were yours?
