the cure for ADHD is to understand the dynamics of your dysfunction and build coping mechanisms and habits into a life system which allows you to function like a normal person after you let go of the crutch that is the pill

it will never stop being funny to me that the cure for ADHD is to take a pill at the same time every morning

if you ever find yourself thinking something like "doing this will make both of us miserable but it's necessary for the relationship" I would urge you to consider what a relationship is if not something two people who care a out each other are doing together
many make the mistake of reifying the relationship, bringing it onto the same ontological status as the people within it; this is a grave mistake, as it allows you to do such nonsense as prioritizing the sake of "the relationship" over that of the person ur supposed to care about

we play word games, moving them around like Lego bricks, trying to find the right way to arrange them to make meaning
we call this process thinking, but we're merely playing w/ shadows; the move is to let go the symbolic representations & access the raw concepts directly
in a high-dimensional space, complex transformations are simple, linear; but when projected into a lower space, the same transformations are that much messier to represent
this is why the simplest way to solve a difficult problem often is to find the right higher representation
any planar projection of a >=3D object inherently necessitates a dimensional reduction; the trick is to minimize lossiness thru salience preservation
in other words, choosing which parts to not cut out very wisely

Everyone that has watched The Matrix knows the insidious figure of agent smith.

cryptography and cryptocurrency are technologies that are now unstoppable. they’re never going away. the irony is that a lot of reflexive blockchain-dislikers are actually forfeiting their ability to help decide the future of what these technologies look like in our world

@FreedZach I dunno, I like it - the spiral makes *much* more economical use of the space restrictions in newspapers layouts than histograms, lines plots, etc. Stacking years would invite bad comparisons of months across years, leaving it all on one x-axis would just be insane

this is a pretty good data viz actually, the spiral allows them to
a. pack information more densely without sacrificing readability
b. colocate corresponding time periods, demonstrating periodicity
just bc their politics suck doesn't mean their tech does too

conversely, you can extract signal about which rules are fake by watching which signs get enforced

I wish shops would enforce "masks are mandatory" signs if they're going to have them.
