Car drivers can't even be trusted with two dimensions. Why the fuck would we let them have a third.

Parts of the South are also more heavily Latino than people realize. In 2026, Southern politics are no longer just Black/White. Obviously places like TX and FL have huge Latino populations, but look at GA etc. Change is afoot on multiple dimensions at once!

Just literally disappeared completely from the news. Unbelievable, on about 27 different dimensions.

new dimensions in accursedness
Coorsicles (2023-2023): Freezer pops made with non-alcoholic Coors Light beer. They were developed and released as a March Madness promotion, sold in 6 packs online, as well as at 800 sports bars across the country that were airing the NCAA tournament

Indeed - the job of the SecDef is not to be the best officer for the same reason the job of a general officer is not to be the best rifleman.
You want a SecDef who is thinking about the political dimensions of conflict and managing the massive DoD bureaucracy.

historically, secdefs have *not* been generals, and indeed generals need a congressional waiver to become secdef! but we have deluded ourselves into thinking that war should be "left to the professionals."

The Trump administration has chosen to forget that airpower provides no way to force a favorable peace.

I want a Cadbury Flake but at eighties prices and nineties dimensions. I would quite like to be nineties dimensions too while you’re there, God.

More interesting stuff, for people who wonder why the (our) Universe has only 3 spatial dimensions.
So atoms cannot form in 4D because the charge potential matches the electron kinetic potential (r^-2) and nothing is stable. However, if you simply by fiat impose the 3D charge potential, you get 4D atoms. Here are their orbitals

instead of spending election day doomscrolling or endlessly refreshing vote counts, i have a treat: a new and improved political compass for 2026, ranking politicians and important figures on the only dimensions that truly matter

locomotion in higher dimensions
In 3d, you need a tripod to be stable at minimum. You also need to lift one leg to move it. In 4d, you need the 4th stabilizing leg “out of plane” so you don’t tip over into w. Effectively it’s a volume, and a tetrahedron is the minimum stable configuration

a neural network can have thousands of dimensions. i do not know how to count that low.
I will defend journalists to the death against evil politicos, but... this is pretty bad, NYT.
"Space" in this sense is just a way of organizing relatedness. You can think of the parameters of my ass in terms of 20-dimensionality (size, curvature, etc.), but my ass isn't smarter than people.

Schrodingers equation solved for hydrogen in four spatial dimensions with a modified charge potential. Its also a pretty good orbital viewer for the familiar orbitals.

Hard agree. Scale it to curb weight and dimensions.
