“Delicacies” is my incoherent, irregular, unpredictable collection of interesting sparks I came across online. Handpicked by a human, no robots, no AI. A form of tripping, wandering, dérivé, with some loosely undefined theme holding them together. Delicacies have no fixed frequency: I hit the publish button when there is enough material. That can be after a week or after 3 months. No pressure, literally. Just click the image below. Enjoy!

Some highlights from this edition:

• Nova Spivack thinks math might hold the key to understanding minds and machines > The Geometry of Intelligence
• About “A Sense of Rebellion”, Evgeny Morozov’s second podcast installment of his trilogy on the “tech rebels who failed”.
• About the “Playability” of systems, also mentioning Exocapitalism. Interesting take by TheJaymo
