Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
I don't know if it'll make sense to you, but the feature of blocking people is just a blessing. I personally would endorse this feature and recommend it to everyone to keep their sanity at bay. Certain people can't disappear from your life at your will, but blocking them from your socials and contacts is SO CALMING.…
The graver division in society is not between those who support one side of an ideological position, but between levels of devotion and objectivity to the ideological position. Between LOYALISTS and LEANERS. The loyalists find no wrong in their positions, and those who subscribe to them. If there's any fact, any line…
In the debate over freedom of expression with regard to blasphemy, I find it absurd when the argument is made, usually in response to some Muslim fanatic going on a murder rampage, that "well Christians try to censor expression too." I just don't think there exists a reasonable argument to be made that there is any…
Adulthood is all about being with people you love. Away from home, Lost in a City of strangers, Getting introduced to a new world. It gets lonely in the Adulthood but the only way from here is finding your Community, friends, art, media. I find people complaining on twitter about being lonely and not able to make…
As I wrote in my last part of Cortex X4 [1], We finally have some news on X5. Quote: which forms part of (ARM CEO) Rene Haas's strategy to "eliminate the performance gap between ARM-designed processors and custom ARM implementations." Moorhead's inside information has "Blackhawk" demonstrating the "largest…
Do you have a big plan or idea that you're eager to bring to life? Something that not only benefits you but also others and the world at large? It could be bold, daring, and even risky – there's no limit to what can be accomplished. The key is to work backwards from your end goal to where you are now. Ask yourself:…
I remember I started writing blog posts about 13 years ago, during my gap year when I was preparing for my university entrance exam, kind of like the SAT. But when one of my college friends found my blog, I suddenly felt so embarrassed that someone I knew had read it. I ended up deleting the whole thing. At the time I…
Knowing is table stakes. “Do you know the patient?” A common question asked in the clinical world. When I was in training, I literally thought the question meant whether the patient is part of the list I am responsible for that day. A simple yes or no. Now when I get asked, I know that the knowing is much deeper. Do…
Non-monetized. Is that even a term? I was recently creating a page on my Notion called "leisure + fun". It basically has 1 database with all my hobbies and leisure activities. But I soon realized that there's only one hobby or leisure activity that I regularly enjoy doing and haven't monetized. That's reading books.…
Cheguei por aqui hj. Vi um post de um cara no twitter e me interessei pela plataforma, agora tô aqui pra ver como posso usar isso ao meu favor. Se bem que a interface podia ser mais bonitinha né kkkkkk. O cara também indicou o typeshare, mas esse já conhecia só que n me adaptei muito bem na plataforma. Junto a isso…
"What's your name?" One encounters this question in an ever declining frequency. As you add years, the frequency of the question reduces. Recollect the moment you answered with pride with your chest bloated Pronouncing your name. As one ages, one takes increasing offense if asked "What's your name?" So courtesy comes…
Obviously not this one. There's a lot of rambling in my head too, like now. But because these are ramblings, do they matter? Are they worth thinking at all? Should they be shared? Where do our limits lie in thoughts?
Teaches you that: you can get whatever you want to get by just focusing on it Focus on the "CAN GET" rather than the stagnant "WHAT IFS" - "WHY DO I WANT TO DO" Say NOO to negative thoughts - JUST DO IT And move on with life. Because they are so many aspects of life & You gotta do well in everyone of it. Remember the…
We hadn't formally launched Trilegal yet when my friend Vinay, who was with a law firm in London, called. It was early March 2000. Him: "Have you guys opened for business yet?" Me: "Why do you ask?" Him: "Because I have a deal for you." Me, struggling to hide excitement: "Well yes, then we're open." This was a…
Kebahagiaan adalah merasa puas dengan apa yang kamu miliki. Kesuksesan datang dari ketidakpuasan. Kebahagiaan tidak muncul setelah mendapatkan kesuksesan, karena sesungguhnya kita bisa memilih untuk bahagia kapan pun. "Aku akan sukses jika memiliki X." "Sukses adalah ketika aku mendapat gaji sebesar X." Pernyataan…
Esses dias participei do meu primeiro clube do livro. Antes de falar mais sobre ele, quero explicar o "esses dias". Eu tava num dia péssimo. Péssimo mesmo. Depois de ficar internada, passar por um procedimento com anestesia, voltar pra casa com um monte de remédios que me custaram uma fortuna, tive minha primeira…
Waiting rooms at hospitals and Doctors clinics are possibly a place where a clock or contraption that measures time, don't have much use. A minute on a clock vis a vis a minute from when the Doctor reads your report on her / his screen and shares the results with you, seem much longer than a minute. While the clock…
Technology is not, and can never be, neutral. Since it is impossible to present all available choices with equal priority, what we choose to emphasize is an expression of our values and priorities. Choosing defaults, providing recommendations, or identifying what content is shown and in what order. These are all…
Today I officially logged out of Facebook. I do not have the app on my phone and just use Chrome to doom scroll. Today, I just had enough. I catch myself doing it all the time. Its like I naturally gravitate to it, my thumb's natural navigation. Even if I fill that time spent elsewhere on social media, at least it…
"Everything you want is on the other side of cringe". I read that line somewhere on X, and it changed the way I judge my own actions. It's one of those rare sentences that illuminates a truth that has been experienced but not verbalized. I love those sentences. Anyway, I digress. Cringe is an emotional barrier that…
What is the goal of a human life? We are on this planet for 100 years at best and of those 100 years a part at the beginning and a part at the end will not be productive. So we only have limited time available to us. Within this limited time we build structures and systems in place to create, build and live on this…
Our outward appearance tells others a lot. Wear a suit and show your business personality Wear an orange robe and show your religious personality Wear harem pants and show your free-spirit personality This is all signaling. By signaling we let others know that our "culture" exists. Now here's the problem.. We, humans…
hospitals are scary - their cream tinted walls that seem to stretch out infinitely, the clutter of people walking and what seems to be the most terrifying is the occasional stretchers filled with sick people that pass by. you see their faces, their eroded smiles and the only a husk of the person they used to be -…
Do you know what is the most common definition of nature? "Nature is the phenomena of the physical world collectively, including plants, animals, the landscape, and other features and products of the earth, as opposed to humans or human creations." A very egoistic and relative definition if you ask me. How about…
'FOMO', although a very gen-z term ,is somewhere a deep rooted fear of many. As, no matter what, grass always seems to be greener on the other side. All these apps such as instagram, snapchat, netflix etc are thriving because they instill fomo in individuals. The world has too much to offer and one wants to grab it…
Airport Arrival Terminals are a places filled with joy. Families and friends reconnecting, giving each other a warm hug and a kiss. Some, weirdly enough, spraying hand sanitizers as soon as possible. People stand waiting behind a railing waiting to get a glimpse of their loved ones, and as soon as they see them, their…
This page serves as my personal digital diary. Due to my overly active mind and severe ADHD, I often forget thoughts that never even make it to my consciousness. It's as if I've thought of everything, but in reality, I'm not thinking at all. The topics covered will range from the silliest reasons to serious thoughts…
i just did a yoga session https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2D1WYgUeuM i thought about karl the whole time. who is karl? karl is a white haired old man we met at a port in greece everyone was freaking out!! because a flotilla came and dragged everyone's anchor karl was cool as a motherfucker. he stood there pitying…
thinking about the brits in relation to the opium crisis in china makes me feel the exact same way about the brits the way i do about my ex: well fucking played. what a worthy opponent you are-- you erotic beast. i'll get you back.
There's some quote out there which says that things which converge will diverge and vice versa. I feel we humans are in a divergent phase today. You can see signs of it all around - rise of nationalism in countries like US, India, UK, high tensions between superpowers like the US and China, outright war in Ukraine -…
I’m sad for what I won’t experience. I can imagine walking out the front door, leaving the shade of the porch and feeling the powerful sun immerse me in its warm, like i’m getting into a hot tub without the wet feeling. Maybe all these things i will miss are things i already miss from the idealized summers in south…
Walk around. And conceive the best things Because really; it wouldn’t make sense if you try to think “you’re special”. The fact is probably you’re not - it takes hard work to build confidence and real talent/effort into doing certain things well. It wouldn’t makes sense if there are 2000 years of mankind history And…
Today, I'll be going to the gym. Since starting my training journey in August 2022, I've made significant progress. Before that, I had been suffering from hemiplegic migraine attacks since my early 20s which left me feeling drained for days. I reached a point where simple tasks like applying shampoo or inflating car…
honestly, i'm not even sure if it's a skill to have, but two underrated skills are longevity (or persistence) and focus. first let's start with longevity. i was listening to a david dobrik's podcast a few days ago and he was saying that he didn't really speak to any friends he made in his first year in LA. not because…
Pequei enquanto paulistana kk Não assisti a nenhum desfile aqui de São Paulo, mas, em minha defesa, eu estava empenhada em terminar um livro. No entanto, ontem eu consegui parar pra ver os desfiles da Sapucaí. Ver a homenagem a Lula foi tão lindo, pena que a globo fez uma cobertura medíocre e isentona. Aquilo é…
When studying something Im not particularly a fan of I just eat, not because of hunger, but because of the necessity to stay awake. This happens even if I try all the tips and tricks from studying with other people, taking breaks, sitting in the right positions, making it interactive... my eyes just close. Starting to…
When we think of the word "slavery," defined as a system of relations in which individuals are compelled to perform labor, it is reasonable to define the inverse as the absence of compulsion. The word most associated with such a situation is "freedom." Closely related but with a more political connotation is the word…
Ahh recently i was prompted by someone to try a different technique for a creation. it was new to me and required patience to learn. as i played with the technique, my ideas evolved into a more interesting creation. now it is time to further that idea and create something even better...
Some need coffee to stay awake daily. Some don't. And some like me, can drink coffee and stay awake, yet quit and not feel sleepy. However, recently, when I go back to drinking coffee, I find my naps light and shallow and my sleep at night disturbed. They are just not as deep as not drinking coffee. So a thought just…
The quantum of the gap between need and desire is inversely proportional to the degree of contentment we possess.
- a girl who i talk to who is doing her best to be nice to me and listen to me - a boy who i talk to who is doing her best to be nice to me and listen to me it's like they're kinda trying to be - deep - interesting - thoughtful but they lack that quintessential thing. what is that quintessential thing? it sounds a bit…
(original: 2010 August 03) i connect dots. random? NO. shuffling around of dots? ALWAYS. including people? YES. mindmapping in motion ... i often find myself connecting events, information, people, and activities that seem unrelated to some but are (or should be) related. back in 1995, i called it POE's Corner -…
codeberg.org merupakan website remote yang cukup customable dengan keamanan privasi yang ditingkatkan (klaim dari codeberg.com). Aku mulai menggunakan codeberg belum lama ini yang dikhususkan untuk hal-hal pribadi, sedangkan github aku khususkan untuk dokumentasi tugas kuliah atau proyek yang mengharuskan menggunakan…
Comi rápido demais e agora parece que eu estou tendo um infarto. Eu jantei foccacia que fiz com as minhas próprias mãos. Estava uma delícia completa. Uma das melhores que já fiz. Adoro fazer um pãozinho, adoro saber cozinhar. Coloquei o restante da caponata junto, uns tomatinhos cereja, sal grosso e alecrim, que eu…
¿De qué sirve hacer mucho? ¿De qué sirve hacer poco? ¿Quién se servirá lo que quedó? ¿Cuánto estaremos aquí? ¿Mucho? ¿Poco? ¿Quién puede saberlo? ¿De qué tenemos que pedir perdón? ¿De qué nos van a perdonar? ¿Quién puede pedir perdón? ¿Quién puede otorgarlo? ¿Quién nos traicionó? ¿Quién nos engañó? ¿Quién fue el que…
6h da manhã e ainda estou bêbada de chandon e tendo uma jornada aqui no vaso da casa de praia. Meu cunhado casou ontem e eu adoro casamentos, mesmo odiando. É de uma contradição, mas explico. Adoro pela vibe das pessoas, todo mundo se arruma e obrigatoriamente fica feliz. É bom pra rever gente legal também e dançar…
It snowed today. During the school year, snow means the possibility of a snow day or at least a late start. Snow falls so softly, blanketing the ground in silence. My desire to stay inside to enjoy the scenery from the shelter of a warm home is strong. If I were many years younger I would want to run out to be the…
I recently watched a viral clip of a podcast in which Tyler Cowen asks Marc Andreessen about the concrete advantage of web3. Marc attempts to explain, but doesn't do anywhere close to as good a job as you'd expect him to. And the skeptics loved it. That got me thinking - I've been bullish about web3 for quite a while;…
