🤔 the past tense of "fit" should be "fat."

#Philosophy #gnostr From Perennial Philosophy : Since Zhuangzi was the directly previous book I read, I can add context. Huizi (also Yan Hui) was asking Confucius for his thoughts on a trip he was planning, to go see a barbaric evil prince and civilize him. This is warring states period China. Confucius advised not going - the evil Prince would kill him. Iirc he said something like "this is the road to a short life." The story is allegory - the evil prince is equivalent to the Beast in the always misunderstood Christian texts. Its your ego, or the part of ego that possesses and prioritizes and assigns value. The windows are your senses - Zhuangzi talked about the senses in an adjacent passage. Huxley, author of Perennial Philosophy, points this biblical verse out : I would point out "let those who have eyes to see, see, and ears to hear, hear."

🤔 the task scheduler, or something like it, should be the central feature of an OS. Paired with an AI in one GUI, you could make scripting and automating stuff at home super easy for regular people.

Hitting the sack. Learned some stuff today. Nice. 🌘

cout and cin - I don't remember these. In my memory it's more complicated. The ai says they're not new though. Huh.

Here I go, filling out **_yet another_** form with identity details... It shouldn't work like this. It should be : I pay, they give me a secret number, and then if there's a problem I give them the secret number. Nothing more should ever be required. My gender does not matter. My race does not matter. My address does not matter. What possible reason could there be to demand this information?

Fun fact : half of all species are parasites, and in some ecosystems more than half of all living biomass is a parasite.
