I'll second Fridman + Carmack. Probably the one podcast episode that everyone in this community would enjoy. Carmack is quite the inspiring character, and Lex's obvious reverence of him was a joy to experience.

The other podcast I frequent is econtalk, mostly because I find Russ to be thoughtful and he's a good steelmanner for libertarian and Friedmanist arguments I commonly disagree with.
I'm not sure there is one. There are some potential wrinkles like the way Amazon Prime offers add-ons like Starz. But even that is analogous to the cable world where you had premium channels like HBO. There's also the potential for some content to just go a la carte only sales through a purely distribution platform but I have to believe that ship has mostly sailed.

ADDED: But per another comment, things are better than the cable world, much less the pre-cable world that I actually grew up in. So some combination of fragmentation and consolidation is fine for me.
+100 to Heavyweight, it's my favorite podcast. Each one is like a little gem.

More tech related, and excellent podcasts:

Offline, a new-ish podcast from Crooked (the Pod Save America guys). It has a very anti silicon valley agenda that is sometimes annoying but there are some excellent interviews there.

Hard Fork, a tech news podcast from NYT, that gives a nice weekly roundup and some deeper dives on the week's drama in tech, in a mostly funny manner.
> Nevertheless, I would prefer a Markdown-based system

My free, cross-platform desktop Markdown editor, KeenWrite[1], integrates with the ConTeXt typesetting software[2]. I'm working on a branch to make integration containerized[3] because its installation is painful. KeenWrite limits math to plain TeX[4] so that the output can be rendered using any TeX-based typesetter (ConTeXt, LaTeX, MathJax, εχTEX, etc.).

Here's a sample document typeset using ConTeXt (skip to page 40 for the math):

https://pdfhost.io/v/4FeAGGasj_SepiSolar_Highlevel_Software_...

That document theme is called Solare[8].

> that can use CSS and MathML

Adding CSS mixes presentation logic with content, which is something KeenWrite strives to avoid. Instead, KeenWrite implements Pandoc's annotation syntax to keep presentation logic out of the content. I've written about this extensively in my Typesetting Markdown series[5].

You can produce some pretty amazing documents just with annotations, such as the following that I wrote in Markdown and typeset using ConTeXt:

https://impacts.to/downloads/lowres/impacts.pdf

> has a 100% bibtex clone for references.

Markdown fails at references. At some point, I'd like to implement cross-references in KeenWrite. Except there's at least six competing standards for the syntax, which I've also remarked upon[6], making the choice of syntax difficult[7].

> setting up such a pipeline is still too complicated for many

FWIW, my Typesetting Markdown series, which explains how to set up a typesetting pipeline using Pandoc, is one of the reasons I developed KeenWrite: to replace that entire pipeline (R, Markdown, externalized variable interpolation, math, and typesetting) with a single tool.

If you object to the K-series CPU's ability to draw current, you have the option to use the linux tool `powercap-set` to limit it to 65W, 95W, or whatever arbitrary limit you think is best. Intel RAPL accepts its parameter down to the microwatt.

"Destroy the heretical content! Wrongthink apostasy should be banned! We must preserve the narrative!"

Fox has pretty successfully positioned FX as a place for more ambitious shows that wouldn't survive on a bigger network. To the point where I'm willing to give a show a try just because their track record has been good.
I don't disagree with anything you've said, and I don't think therapy is useless. Especially when one is past a point where there are few other options.

It's just a sad state of affairs that there are so few other options for people. I continue to pin the blame on the remote-first nature of society, which seems to make in person interaction secondary. It perpetuates loneliness which perpetuates mental health issues.

> I don't think that population density is relevant here as the issue is one of right.

It is absolutely relevant because services can only be logistically and economically viable at certain levels of density. Fire services aren't very useful if it takes them a two-hour drive to reach the fire. So they have a maximum radius where they are useful. They only provide value to the people within that radius. If the density is too low, then there aren't enough people in there to afford supporting fire services.

But then you're saying that the definition has always been wrong, which is a very different claim.

I personally think that claiming a definition has always been wrong is vacuous. Just substitute the word in your head for something else if you don't like it.

> Yes, it may surprise you that the women in Iran, for instance, are breaking the law. And so did the people who founded the USA, in another example.

Sure, but plenty of bad actors have broken the law as well - the examples of these are far more numerous. While there are hypothetical moral use cases for crypto, some of the most common actual uses are greed (yield farming, speculation), scams (rug pulls, pump and dumps, wash trading, ransomware), tax evasion, and as currency for contraband like drugs. What ratio of moral to immoral use cases is acceptable to the crypto community? 1:10? 1:100? Or is anything ok as long as someone out there is using it to escape repression?

Popped amaranth is my favorite. It's incredibly tiny, and fun to imagine being a giant eating popcorn. I like to serve it alongside saucy fish, as kind of a "dry dip". Unlike the grains mentioned in the article, it actually pops -- it's fast and easy in a heavy bottomed pot, just like popcorn, but way faster because the grains are so small.
I think this is exactly where reasonable people disagree. Some (myself included) feel that acting like a grownup means exactly that everything that nature (not other people) inflicts on you is your responsibility. This includes your house catching on fire or your person contracting a disease.

1. Andrew Huberman (Probably the greatest podcast ever). Provided so many useful scientific tools to improve my overall health.

2. Lex Fridman

3. Sam Harris
As an aside, I really wish Lex Fridman would make his interviews shorter and edit them a bit. Plus, I'm not trying to diss him but genuinely asking - he's not a particularly remarkable or interesting or entertaining interviewer (he's okay, and smart, but nothing out of the ordinary), how did he become such a prominent podcaster?
There is an oft quoted phrase which is usually found online

"The cauldron was rarely emptied except in preparation for the meatless weeks of Lent, so that while a hare, hen, or pigeon would give it a fine, meaty flavor, the taste of salted pork or cabbage would linger for days, even weeks."

it seems like not an article about perpetual goes without those words. It gave me deja vu reading it.
Couldn't that be more efficiently solved using a public database maintained by a trusted third party? We don't need a blockchain to know who owns shares for example.

The way the deceased goes around that corner, he's not even thinking that he's going to take any fire from that direction.
He has no first-author publications that aren't op-eds [1], and no publications whatsoever from his time at UC Davis. Since dropping out afaict he's done no relevant academic or industry work. I'm skeptical of his qualifications over any other bio undergrad.

fwiw, I don't think credentialism is the strongest signal here. The larger disqualifying factor is his history of crank takes and writing for anti-semitic and alt-right blogs.

Would have to be “Decoding the Gurus” [1]. It’s hosted by a Behavioral Anthropologist and a Psychologist, and they do a great job exposing popular grifters like Jordan Peterson. “Behind the Bastards” [2] is a close second. They give a more modern dissection of horrible people and prominent organizations throughout history. Not so coincidentally, they also have a mini-series on Jordan Peterson.

In any event, letting recruiters take control over your calendar is a good first step back into thinking of yourself as someone else's tool.

Thank you very much! I really appreciate the amount of thought and care you put into all your responses. You're probably right that were it not for Europeans taking some artifacts from around the globe they would have perished; and so I agree that on the whole it may have been better that Europeans took many things into museums.

I feel like Last Week Tonight show about Museums was probably a decent overview of the state of things. I wonder, if you've seen it, you disagree with more than 10% of what's said?

It is very egalitarian since everyone can participate on an equal footing, everyone can run a node and get a complete copy of all transactions and verify correctness. It is challenging and expensive to get the same kind of insight into the stock market.

Huge fan of Avery Trufelman's Articles of Interest (https://www.radiotopia.fm/podcasts/articles-of-interest).

She used to be a correspondent on 99% Invisible and originally developed the series as a subsection of 99PI. She also briefly worked on a podcast called "Nice Try!" in the same vein: deeply exploring weird facets of the world around us. Articles of Interest does that, but for clothes, and the latest season has been especially interesting to me as it dives into the history of US colleges and their influence on fashion. Well produced content, very talk-radio-y, Avery really sticks to a narrative.

I also recently discovered Switched on Pop, a brilliant podcast that digs deep into pop songs from the last few decades, dissecting why they're catchy, why they work... and why they sometimes don't. If you're a Taylor Swift fan, their Taylor Swift episodes are especially fun. More conversational production, but still well cut.
The English Wikipedia article is outdated - he‘s no longer officially listed. Some spoilsports took the joke for real and were complaining or something like that. I believe he was never listed in the English/French version.

AMC’s flagship show (Better Call Saul) isn’t currently available on their streaming service.

Personally, I’m happy to sign up for a streaming service to get access to a single show (I do often cancel once I’m done, so I’m not signed up to everything all the time).

There’s only one show I’ve pirated recently: Better Call Saul. If it were on AMC+, I’d be a subscriber.
I always find these footnotes in tech history quite interesting. I'd imagine for many arcades, this was simply too expensive (both up-front and with the seemingly required attendant for operation) alongside being effectively a puke generator.

I am sure meta will remain a profitable company for itself and be around a decade or two more, even Yahoo is still around but my caution is don't hold its stock because it could be devalued significantly in the short term and then stabilize eventually due to its whatsapp and instagram dominance. Gen-z and younger millenials don't like it much. It is also struggling to get competitive talent due to its reputation and has gotten to a point where innovation=aquisition.
