@sentientist How does one go about finding a representative 400 videos?
Replying to @sentientist
@sentientist Hmm. Legit. Except... I dunno, my sense is that in order to be representative, you'd somehow need a lot *more* videos.
@sentientist Like if you assess the 100 top-grossing blockbusters, that wouldn't be an accurate representation of hollywood per se.
I'm really excited for the internet of things button called Boop. It's not a thing yet, but I'm sure one will exist sooner or later.

1/ When part of your research is googling something. Not just to find a particular result, but to see what the search results look like
2/ So e.g. I just searched "core of cognition" (knowing that Hofstadter had claimed "analogy" as such) to see if all results would be him.
3/3 If I'd just wanted to see his claim, I could have included "hofstadter" as a search term, but that was *not* what I wanted, initially.

TFW you use your philosophy paper on analogy as an excuse to finish Gödel, Escher, Bach. TFW you write a TFW that probably is unique to you
The fraction of sentences ending with question marks in this essay I am writing is very very high. What does that imply?

@stef Riight? Pretty disappointing in general. Have you seen gnoosic.com ? It doesn't do alerts but it's great for manual recos.
@stef Ahh, this is more acute than that. You don't teach it tons of stuff, you just paste in a few artists & it says "have you heard of...."
