Well, why not?

  1. Finishing my analysis of predicting Google shutdowns

    Want Don't

  2. Doing more work on my Touhou music data compilation (descriptive statistics & regressing against unemployment rates)

    Want Don't

  3. Compiling cites on correlations of IQ with various desirable things as an example of a genuine halo effect in the real world

    Want Don't

  4. A rant on how geeks' self-centered traits and lack of understanding of things like tacit knowledge lead to deprecation of user-generated content, not caring about archiving practices, and blaming the victims

    Want Don't

  5. Trying to understand the confusing & contradictory literature on the relationship of IQ & Conscientiousness

    Want Don't

  6. A chapter-by-chapter commentary on Drescher's Good and Real, optimistically including any commentary online or in academia, and over-optimistically including some Haskell to work with his Quantish universe (a project I've mulled for the past few years but never started, interested in whether there's major LW interest and I should push it way forward)

    Want Don't

Submitting...

I'm amazed that I'm smack dab in the middle of the consensus.

Could your rant about geeks add bad user interfaces to the list of problems?

Regarding Good and Real, I didn't manage to work out the EPR experiment. It would be nice to see someone else make sense of it.
