Merge fields, every discipline is a branch of nature. Nature is the only industry.

I just lost months worth of research in one moment. It feels like I just lost a piece of my soul. I am fucking crushed.

Hippies often don’t understand the need for individual rights and trust-minimization, blindly praising collectivism as if the world is one big village — it is not, Dunbar’s number disagrees. But the libertarians that don’t acknowledge the collective unconscious have their heads in the sand, ignoring the truth that emergence can steer societies — individual actions propagate to vast varieties of communities when sufficiently mimetic. Walk the middle way. Don’t be pigeon-holed into the right or left. It’s much more nuanced. Like most topics in most fields…

Patience creates stronger gratification. Contrast enables feeling. The suspense… and anticipation… it builds-up and amplifies the moment we’ve been waiting for. When you always get what you want instantly, the feeling of overcoming the impossible can’t be felt. It takes time and proof-of-work to experience how fun that feeling is. View quoted note →

Your choices determine your values, not your proclaimed preferences or opinions. It’s your actions that speak the loudest. Remember that.

Some trade-offs are just unacceptable — they’re equivalent to capitulation / painting a pig. Stop lying to yourself.
