A charming April 1st post. My two favorite lines were "our tools have been rebelling against us since the first peasant stepped on a rake" and "Even a village idiot can fall in love; Newton never did".

Check the footnote for a brief Twitter debate between Maciej and Scott that this set off, which involved the eating of a hat.

lengthy and dry, and although it was intended to amuse, it overstayed it welcome. sorry.

One either loves Chesterton or is bored by him. But in any case, this was very much typical of how Chesterton wrote.

If you are tired of Chesterton, you are tired of life.

Yes. I was very impressed with the style. Though Ceglowski is very charitable with his money, if not with his analysis of AI risk.
