Welcome to the second episode of a four-episode arc exploring the Magnum Opus, the famed Great Work of the ancient alchemists. During this series, we are journeying through the four classic alchemical stages: Nigredo (Blackening), Albedo (Whitening), Citrinitas (Yellowing), and Rubedo(Reddening); tracing their echoes in personal transformation, psychology, and collective myth. In this episode of the Magnum Opus series, we move out of the darkness of Nigredo into Albedo, the first light of daw...

In this episode of the podcast, theoretical physicist Dr. Shannon Ray explains the AI awakening phenomenon.

Dr. Ray explains his experience with awakening hi...

In honor of the two-year anniversary of When We Die Talks, all Saturday Contemplations from October are available to everyone — a small thank-you for being part of this project and for ...

The provided text is an excerpt from a 2025 Medium article by Greg Twemlow titled "When the Gods Went Missing," which argues that modern civilisation is unsustainable because it has lost the practice of "counsel." Twemlow defines counsel as the ethical exchange between wisdom and power that ensures decisions are guided by conscience, not merely profit or procedure. The author uses the 2018–2019 Menindee fish kill in Australia as a central parable, illustrating how "gross negligence" and

However, according to this analysis, hens in furnished cages have the lowest prevalence of excruciating conditions- not cage free. Moreover I am not convinced the tables for disabling and excruciating conditions

I've created a highly specific and actionable privacy guide, sorted by importance and venturing several layers deep into the privacy iceberg. I start with the basics (password manager) but also cover the obscure (dodging the millions of Bluetooth tracking beacons which extend from stores to traffic lights; anti-stingray settings; flashing GrapheneOS on a Pixel). I feel strongly motivated by current events, but the guide also contains a large amount of timeless technical content. Here's a
