Reply to this newsletter with your response, briefly explaining your choice, and we’ll reveal the top answers. (This question was inspired by “[The I](nternet Might Be Good for Us.”) Top Answer to Our Previous Question (On What You Make of Quantum Mechanics) • The universe is not what it seems to be to reductionist analysis. It can be known only by learning the secret behind it. It hides itself, in the way a magician hides what he is doing by distracting your attention. Learning to focus attention on what it is doing, not to where it is pointing, is the key to really seeing what is going on. The Other is a sleight-of-hand expert who wants you to understand the trick. – Armin L.

Cadence Weapon, also known as Rollie Pemberton, has been experimenting with computers to make music for decades.

He used calculations provided by French mathematician Urbain Le Verrier, in an [“act of trans-national nerd comity,” wrote Corey Powell](, to spot a new planet less than one degree from its predicted location. Galle suggested naming it Janus, the two-faced Roman god, implying that it was facing outward toward the stars. Le Verrier objected. “Janus would indicate that this planet is the last of the solar system, which there is no reason to believe,” he wrote. Instead, he proposed Neptune, the god of the sea.
