Tangentially Speaking

396 – Video ROMA 1

By October 7, 2019June 15th, 20224 Comments

This is the soundtrack to the first Video ROMA I recorded for the good folks who support the podcast via my new web site. I found the experience to be surprisingly intimate. Talked about the thing I love most yet know the least about, and the ways I keep the darkness at bay. For as little as $2/month, you get a monthly video ROMA, access to all the podcast-related ebooks (so far, Tangentially Reading, and Tangentially Talking Drugs — Tangentially Talking Sex coming soon). I decided to make this one available to everyone. I’ll keep doing occasional ROMAs on this open platform, but not as often.

Find me on Instagram or Twitter.

To listen to this episode, plus get access to bonus content including bonus episodes, newsletters, and exclusive blog posts, please head over to Substack.

Music: “Brightside of the Sun,” by Basin and Range; “Life Upside Down” by Brett Newski; “Smoke Alarm,” by Carsie Blanton.

    chriS we hear u got perturbed by patreon. Censoring seems 2 b the issue.
    Ur show iz. Who exacts the force, who’s sensing and seizing up ur ring ?
    Some algo,,, pateron is a wanna b tech company. If u feel like u in d know.
    Help them figure out a better algo. Shall we branch out from the complainers ?
    the source. Meta data, And c what common complaint they come on with. Note?)>
    We figure out censoring parameters,
    we help the machine. = bttr prrmter. btter sense ring.
    Another algo, the music u TALK UP.
    who else ever hear of it, and what would they censor.
    U C Chris, that algo would correlate “allowed” and “preferred” “vicinity vibrations.”
    Thts quite the helping hand u could b ,,, ContaCt patreon. Hw do u feel ? Sort it out.

    Should there be a video recording of this episode? Can’t find it. Why there is a “Video” name in the title?

    Hey Chris,

    Have you read this?

    Abstract
    Greenland ice-core records provide an exceptionally clear picture of many aspects of abrupt climate changes, and particularly of those associated with the Younger Dryas event, as reviewed here. Well-preserved annual layers can be counted confidently, with only ≈1% errors for the age of the end of the Younger Dryas ≈11,500 years before present. Ice-flow corrections allow reconstruction of snow accumulation rates over tens of thousands of years with little additional uncertainty. Glaciochemical and particulate data record atmospheric-loading changes with little uncertainty introduced by changes in snow accumulation. Confident paleothermometry is provided by site-specific calibrations using ice-isotopic ratios, borehole temperatures, and gas-isotopic ratios. Near-simultaneous changes in ice-core paleoclimatic indicators of local, regional, and more-widespread climate conditions demonstrate that much of the Earth experienced abrupt climate changes synchronous with Greenland within thirty years or less. Post-Younger Dryas changes have not duplicated the size, extent and rapidity of these paleoclimatic changes.

    Maybe we’re not that fucked
