Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
Imagine if a team could share ownership of a company's social media presence without being told what to do and without a huge amount of process or formality getting in the way. The way I see it, a company exists to help people solve a problem. They already have a group of the most qualified people to solve that…
Hi. My name is Artamon and I’m a hoarder. Hi Artamon. I thought I knew what I was doing. I thought I had a plan and a process. I was wrong. I need help. We got you. Overly dramatic? Perhaps. Accurate? 100% so. Every time I come across an article, a twitter post or a YouTube video that I think I want to read later, I…
Doing some research tonight, but came across this helpful commentary on 1 Corinthians 15:22-23 from St John Chrysostom (Homily 39): "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." What then? Tell me; did all die in Adam the death of sin ? How then was Noah righteous in his generation? And how…
and it pains me not to know whose orgasm i came from. Everybody makes babies about moms. But everybody’s born from their dad’s orgasm. It’s almost like as a society we were meant to make numerical decisions. If you ask one person to guess the number of jelly beans in the jar, they will likely get it wrong. But if you…
You'd be surprised by how many people are in the same situation as you. Last year, before graduating, I decided to study for a second degree. A lot of worries went through my head: "I'm behind," "I'm going to be the oldest," and so on. Many of these thoughts were just excuses to stay in my comfort zone, but I pushed…
I got a lot into productivity over the last few years. Trying desperately to be productive. Following all hacks and methods. But there's a theory, the more consciously you try to improve something, the worse you are at it. Imagine you are driving, if you consciously try to drive better, your brain turns off auto-pilot…
i'm trying to understand what it is that i so admire in a person i will name people i admire and see if i can spot a pattern: (1) M - truly conceited - has a dream, has a plan (and carries it out, somewhat) - content - telepathic understanding (2) H - truly conceited - has many dreams, many plans (AND CARRIES THEM…
I have earned the guts to say this out loud the hard way. I don't HAVE TO do anything. I feel like doing NOTHING and that's what I'll do. I do the things I want to do and feel like doing. There's no shits left to give for anyone or anything else. Only a very calm space inside me where there's an absence of all kinds…
As far as I know there are two types of hotels in New York. There are the ones I go to now, using an app that shows me good deals for luxe stays based on daily vacancies. These places are modern, well-appointed, display vintage claptrap in the lobby, and feel like Wes Anderson movie sets. The bar has some kid with a…
Entrei em um grupo de mulheres maduras que viajam sozinhas. Tem muitas histórias divertidas e inspiradoras ali. Quero muito ir viajar, mas não posso terceirizar o cuidado com meu cãozinho idoso. Aí vi um post de uma mulher na República Tcheca. Ela costumava viajar pelo mundo sozinha, mas agora os pais estão doentes e…
Voltei de uma imersão de uma semana em Brasília. Foi o encontro anual do meu trabalho. Foi bom, mas não foi. Bom pela comida, pela natureza e pela oportunidade de ver pessoalmente quem eu vejo só online. Bom pela oportunidade de aprofundar laços e dançar em conjunto. Também conversar, rememorar e celebrar. Não foi bom…
everyone reading ottessa moshfegh makes me want to read MORE ottessa moshfegh to know exactly what i hate about her i read a bit of "homesick for another world" but did not like it i felt it was pointlessly pointless. pointlessness should be enjoyed the way that you enjoy doing nothing on a beautiful sicilian sunday…
To be influencing And effective in your words The smartest/dumbest person would do when someone point his pain point to you is straight to to his pain point and talk about that point Side him first “I understand! He’s so COPYCAT like omg I can’t believed what he did” “But…” “Have you thought of talking to him about…
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…
When I was a sophomore in high school, I got pulled aside by my physics teacher after turning in a paper on the internal combustion engine. He asked me who wrote it. "Huh?", I responded, genuinely unsure of what to expect from this interaction. "This paper is far beyond the level of technical detail expected for your…
Ahhhhhh!!! this journey excites me. then my nerves pull me back. let me try again tomorrow...
He came to see me, Even if I forgot. He was the inspiration, Behind every lovely shot. He always sat there, Fulfilled and lone. Beholding me gracefully, He jollied and shone. I remember spending nights, Thinking of him on my roof. I crave this gorgeous- He lives aloof. I ask the ones whom he met, Is he the same he…
In honor of my birthday today, I'm giving you a gift. I’m sharing the knowledge I've gained in 65 years around the sun. Regardless of your age, you wll benefit from the lessons I've learned. Sunscreen. Lesson: I grew up in the baby oil sunbathing era. You can spend your money on sunscreen or frequent dermatologist…
Assisti. Vi no YouTube e adorei que o olímpico escroto, ao contrário do livro, foi rejeitado pela pessoa com quem ele traiu Macabéa. Achei muito louco um filme daquela época falar sobre aborto, mesmo que no final a cartomante tenha colocado isso como um grande erro a ser reparado com oferendas. A afita da minha boca…
Be it in relationships, careers, personal development, or any other line of interest. The core is and always has been the same. "Keep doing small intentional efforts" Without this the relationship feels like it has come to an end or at the very least you feel unloved. You can't make Career change, personal development…
Today I have improved a lot. I had a totally different mindset, full sage mode – open, curious, positive, creative, empathetic – and it’s crazy how others picked up on it and mirrored it. I participated in many of the sessions, communicated openly about what I needed and wanted, and simply talked to the others instead…
Ever found your self doing something out of habit without you ever noticing? The (not so) humble android OS was designed to run on any device - from simple toasters to sophisticated devices having more computational capacity than the rocket that landed us on the moon. Part of this robustness is due to the multi…
Ah running out of time, "i will do it later" i say to myself. no! do it now, that same idea will not exist in the future, it will be lost. it may be found but why try. it can exist now...
Walking around the space where Im gonna spend these couple years, what was once a dream and now its's reality, it's something that I still can not process and it feels that I'm a impostor. Not because I don't think I belong here, but just because I never thought I would had gotten here a couple years ago. I hope that…
"For my theme song, my leather black jeans on" are the two first bars on Kanye's song "Black Skin Head" from his album "Yeezus". If you don't know the background of the album, Yeezus, it's basically a huge "fuck you" to the entire hip-hop industry and it's Kanye truly accepting who he is as a person and doing whatever…
i'm looking for something i realized that i write to solve my problems and find clarity but since my problem is quite large now, i'm gathering much concentration and this is all i think about. i've been asking all my friends. i'm trying to solve something that no one has ever solved. but if the answer is out there,…
In the last few days, I've spoken to many intelligent people about AI, the future, and how our world will change. These conversations have intensified my realization of the extreme transformation we are experiencing. Every answer we find raises three new questions. It’s getting faster and faster, more and more complex…
i once had a piano student who had glenn gould energy a little baby of 7 or 10 years old and he told me he only plays the piano to impress girls i thought so young...and he already knows what life is about.
Authority, like a vector, has two properties: magnitude and direction. The magnitude of authority is proportional to the limits on individual freedom. The magnitude may range from anarchy to totalitarianism (chaos / order). All viable regimes fall somewhere between these idealized states. The ideal magnitude of…
A lot of times we made decisions and kinda regret them But that doesn’t mean that we’re making the wrong decisions A lot of the time I was anxious, feeling not like myself because of money I was an avoidant I didn’t want to embrace my feelings But take all that emotions in And learn how to deal with pain That’ll bring…
A well known meme claims that Eskimo-Aleut languages have a hundred words for snow. Scholars question this, saying that these languages are polysynthetic, in which bigger words are composed of smaller parts and employ suffixes, or postbases. This makes it appear that there are more unique words than actually exist.…
the songs that excite me for gig night: - somebody else - she's so high (like she's so hiiiigh, high above me) i think two song is enough i don't want to bore them
Louis Pereira's perceptive post on not trusting intuition reminded me of something. (https://nicheless.blog/post/disregarding-intuition) A dear friend once told me that when someone close - friend, family, colleague - says to him: "read that book, its just your type of writing," or "think about taking up tango…
with eyes that grow flowers and a cool that blooms calm one that pinches your cheeks but before you blink is gone and you stay there, cherry blossom pink like a summer moment on a half-frosty morning or an April shower he walks on, hands in his pockets and eyes that could grow flowers
Something remarkable had happened. I took that for granted, as so often happens inside a dream, having already accepted the events — whatever they’d been. The shape of society itself had changed, The Events having shaken a greater sense of our collective responsibilities into us. Well, most of us. One such…
Starting a company feels like creating a conspiracy against the world. Few people understand why you're doing it. Many question your decision making. Some feel their own values being challenged. My cofounder has mentioned that "time is the enemy" -- that we need to get our product launched faster and get to revenue…
there are pleasures for which there SHOULD be some guilt involved for example: physical books used to be trees. reading books is technically a guilty pleasure if you really care about that kind of stuff, like, killing wildlife and stuff when you really think about it, almost every aspect of "modern" life becomes…
It has occurred to me several times in the past. I feel like expressing it to a friend of the opposite gender. It is the feeling of polyamory - it is not about just sex, it is about having conversations, it is about being available to listen and share with each other. I felt like calling the friend and asking to meet…
Taking a shower does nothing if you put on dirty clothes afterwards.
If Apple does release a slimmer new iPhone, it will likely do so in 2025 as part of the iPhone 17 lineup, say reports from Haitong International Securities analyst Jeff Pu and co-founder and CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants Ross Young (as reported by 9to5Mac). Kuo, Bloomberg and The Information have reported…
This is by far the most important and most difficult lesson I've learned over the past years. I'm still getting better at it more and more but it's not easy. The whole gist of it is that you should do what you have to do at the time that you have to. Sounds pretty simple but you'd be hard pressed to find someone out…
I received the death news of a close relative today. For a moment I was speechless as the end of life has been the single most mysterious truth for me. It's the ultimate inevitability that makes life so precious. We acquire all the survival skills in the journey of life to meet death one day. It's also the ultimate…
There are thousands of self-help books, videos, and podcasts giving me tips on how to be more productive and get more work done. While most of that is bullshit and not really actionable, there are sometimes good pieces of advice that actually make sense and can be applied effectively. However, most of this advice only…
Moms article came in the paper today. We had such a nice and sweet time with all of us in Ammamma’s room as atta read out the article to us. The dogs were there, everyone was so happy, it was just really sweet. We were actually woken up by a phone call from moms friend congratulating her. I realised it’s a big deal…
ahh a text i keep putting off from re-reading "the generic city" by Rem Koolhaas. from memory it speaks of ideas around identity. today i am seeing more conversation around identity from design. in contradiction to identity some designers thrive by removing identity...
The past three places I've lived have all been near a busy street. Not too busy, with cars honking and voices shouting. Not too loud like a highway. Instead, just the right amount of busy, at the right times. What do I mean by this? In the morning, when I wake up, I hear the cars and people start to move about,…
perhaps we blog for the same reason we do work/read in coffeeshops we want to feel amongst others even in our solitude i wonder if anyone has ever met anyone in a coffee shop and become best friends
"PKM is not so much about creating knowledge but rather the development of conscious regular activities from which new knowledge can emerge." Harold Jarche I am re-taking Jarche's PKMastery 40-day Workshop. I first took the workshop in 2015, which includes access to subsequent workshops as Jarche evolves his material…
