Evidently there is some “math versus the rationalists” conflict brewing up, and I for one could not be more pleased. This promises one metric fuckton of grade A Tumblr drama.
Bring it nerds!
this conflict makes me anxious because what if, after another day of working on my applied math ph.d dissertation for 10+ hours, i open up tumblr and it turns out i agree with The Rationalists and therefore am Not A Math
this conflict is annoying because I hate having to scroll past y’all’s long incomprehensible mathposts
me: “ah, yes, the numbers are numbering very hard right now. I see that the letters are also involved. jolly good.”
You can just hit “j”
That’s good to know! I’m somewhat surprised I hadn’t known about it before. I did a quick search and found this list of twenty-one Tumblr keyboard shortcuts; hopefully others will find it useful!
Fair warning: occasionally I try to hit “K” for moving up a post and accidentally hit “L” for like. I don’t think I’ve ever had a *particularly* awkward accidental liking (often it’s posts that I’d already liked anyway), but that’s just good luck.
