The "philosopher king" president of El Salvador (Nayib Bukele) is in the process of implementing "Zero Idleness" prisons (justifying them by nodding to Agamben's "state of exception"), and all I can think about is 20th century mathematician Bertrand Russell's book that praises idleness/leisure/otium

CONVERSATION WITH DELEUZE: pluralist epistemology and life
This space is meant to tarry in the theory of El Pluriverso (Arturo Escobar, Walter Mignolo) and compare it to other multipolar or metaversal philosophical concepts. Feel free to rigorously compare "El Pluriverso" vs "Александр Дугин: Теория многополярного Мира. Плюриверсум"?

Yuk Hui's definition of recursion: "the looping movement of returning to itself in order to determine itself, while every movement is open to contingency, which in turn determines its singularity" (via 'Recursivity and Contingency', 2019)

Virginia Woolf: "I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don’t have complete emotions about the present, only the past."

How Reza Negarestani (a computer engineer turned philosopher fresh from reading Lautréamont, Rimbaud and Bataille) first read Nick Land's Cybergothic essay — "The world is a computer"
Accelerationism is the point where hyperstition (to shape the future) and retrochronic intelligence (to shape the past) meet. Nick Land describes hyperstition (a portmanteau of "hyper" + "superstition") as "the experimental (techno-)science of self-fulfilling prophecies". Hyperstitions are ideas that, once "downloaded" into the cultural mainframe, engender apocalyptic positive feedback cycles. Hyperstitions – by their very existence as ideas – function causally to bring about their own reality.

Reassembling the Social - For Latour, actors bring "the real" (a plurality of metaphysics) into being. There is no basic structure of reality or a single, self-consistent world. An unknowably large multiplicity of realities, or "worlds" in his terms, exists—one for each actor's sources of agency.

If Nick Land is the father of Accelerationism, which living theorist is the father of Jerkism?
No decels. We're a pro-singularity, pro-AI alternative to r/singularity, r/technology, r/futurology, r/artificial, as they became overpopulated with technology decelerationists, luddites, and Artificial Intelligence opponents. We're an Epistemic Community that excludes those advocating for slowing, stopping, or reversing technological progress, AGI/ASI, or the singularity, and those who believe that technological progress and AI are fundamentally bad.

Frequency of different outputted values for Gemini 1.5 for the counting tasks. The large density at 100 suggests that Gemini is likely not counting, but instead possibly performing some crude form of subitising.
