I think I’ve mentioned it before but I used to have quite long
arguments with an ex about the (broadly Bayesian) probability calculus
attached to “vitrification” (freezing yourself like Walt Disney, but the

I know Miller by reputation but I’d never actually checked him out before today. Dear god it’s worse than I imagined
