Denmark summons US ambassador after Trump names Greenland envoy

A lot of conversations about neurodivergence take the form of the first image below. I’m arguing to adopt the framing of the second image instead (except 100- or 1000-dimensional instead of 2-dimensional).
We’ve identified a few clusterings in a space of extraordinary and beautiful variation, and given those clusterings names. How useful those names are! How little they capture, even so! How much variation remains unnamed! How much variation must exist within every human being!

Huh, that's weird.
Watching a documentary set in a hospital ER and they're blurring some obvious things - patient names, computer screens not relevant to what's going on, faces of people without a media release, more graphic injuries, etc.
But they also blurred a *clock* in the background of one scene. I have to wonder what the story there is. Just a big 7-segment LED clock on the wall of one of the trauma bays.

Just landed at SFO from the UK. Global Entry processing has got extremely slick over the years. Bypassed long line for immigration, no line for face scan machines, showed my face to the machine for about 3 seconds for it to recognize me, then a short line of people walking past the TSA officer with him calling out our first names as we passed. There used to be printouts and document scanners, that’s all gone.

Donald Trump issued a pardon for the founder of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange on Thursday.
Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty in late 2023 to one count of failing to maintain an anti-money laundering program and stepped down as CEO of Binance,
which paid $4.3bn to settle related allegations.
He was sentenced to four months in prison.
Zhao, who is often referred to by his initials CZ, is one of the world’s richest people and biggest names in cryptocurrency.

My general framework for thinking about this stuff:
- Brains vary a lot, in a lot of different ways.
- We have names for a few variations, or common patterns of variation. That can be useful, but it’s hardly complete.
- There’s a wealth of as-yet-unnamed neurodivergences out there.
- It’s all but certain that •everyone’s• mind is atypical in one way or another.
- Comparison with, aspiration to, or forced conformance to the nonexistent “average” mind is unhelpful, frequently harmful.
- Embracing variation is the only reasonable (or humane) approach.
