One branch of science I am fascinated by is paleontology. As stated in my previous post, I find it hard to understand and appreciate the natural world without knowledge of the evolutionary relationships between extant species. Also, I just think it’s cool.

Accordingly, I have started a paleontology blog, Arthropleura. From the about page:

“Arthropleura is a paleontology blog by Michael Anissimov. It is named after Arthropleura, an 8-ft long relative of centipedes and millipedes that lived during the Carboniferous period. Arthropleura was the largest terrestrial invertebrate that ever lived.”

I doubt my posting on Arthropleura will be as frequent as it is on Accelerating Future. Certainly, I believe that paleontology carries less utilitarian weight than the ethics and pragmatics of emerging technologies, but I am interested enough in the field to start a blog devoted to it. If you’re interested in the subject, please subscribe.

When I become superintelligent, I will start a blog on every topic I’m interested in, even the most banal.
