If the retina would stop updating information and hold on to one image a person would be blind. If one is unable to update their point of view based on new information a person is intellectually blind.

Bet: In the future how healthy the food is will be a lot more based on the pairing and the sequence CI 28%
Mechanism of sorts: strawberries with spinach will be considered less healthy than say strawberries with lettuce.

Not surfing
I love surfing, but catching waves is not what I am after. Yes, it is fun to ride down, but it's the same type of fun as zigzagging on a bicycle during my commute home. I think catching a wave is just a little bait for my brain to be where the waves crash... Read More...

Longer focus
On the longer stretches, you are able to focus the more quality you can extract. Maybe it is like a processor rendering reality and the longer the text you are reading the potentially more RAM your processor operates with, and potentially higher resolution images it can render.

On rereading
Forget the need of trying to find your max of 223 g of new knowledge per 1 minute. Let yourself reread bc the state you are after is your head being electricized. Then electric chain reactions the head will start: ideas will pop up, synthesis will form, clarity will emerge, decision will get simplified, values will bubble up. I probably already have enough material in me. Running after new material is worth less than it seems. Running after new material may be connected with

Poem: I declare you as a democratic state (looking down on my body)
I believe you are a modularly built brain with independently working circuits. Some of the circuits are tyrants and overtake our decision-making to do things like overeat, go into a negative mood spirals, deprioritize meditation or moving our body. However, it's easy to get access to what our majority want and will benefit from. I, therefore, declare us as a democratic state and will work with all of you to choose actions that foster the common good.

Poem: Faith
You say love and friendship are important to you. But you are just another primate hierarchy climber. You attend church because you think it’s good for the god. But you are just a moving ad for how important herd is to you. (If any of this feels off, run and read "Elephant in the Brain").
Half of your church is rotten. Half of your church is magnificent. The real foundations of faith are 1) Let’s just try, for a second suspend the fact we are egotistical self-obsessions and... 2) have faith in the artificial construction of love and friendship. It's not true but it's a life worth living. It is its only sense. So let’s close our eyes. And let's repeat this until this spirit becomes the body.

Spending money on redundantly expensive things is a form of depression. Many ppl lost connection to the fact that money is time. It often happens with 9 to 5 careers. It feels like it doesn't matter how much I spend because I will work till my retirement anyway.

Internet products are like a perpetuum mobiles
It's like inventing a perpetual, self-happening loop – a mechanism that will run automatically with relatively little of creator's oversight. Google, Facebook Twitter pay way less for a copy of their products than Coca-Cola, Malboro or Nike. That's one of main reasons why "software is eating the world" and by the end of the 2010s Amazon, Apple, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft – were, besides Saudi Aramco, the most valuable public companies globally. Inventing an Internet product is about finding an algorithm that people will find useful. Creators need to just press play. Algorithm will multiply itself in millions and work while they sleep.
Let's take Google. The core of the Google's idea is counting links. It's a script that's goes to a website and finds all the links pointing to other websites. Then goes to these other websites and finds all other links. And when you Google something it will serve you a website that received the highest amount of links (given that links from big websites are counted more). This is the core of the Google's idea. There are on average 3.5 billion Google searches every day (2019). Google search is responsible for a vast large majority of Google's and Alphabet's (parent company) profits. Brin and Page invented this algorithm in 1998 and with relatively little oversight (relative to its influence) it just keeps running loops in millions.

Experimenting with companies’ legal format is the avant-garde of this civilization.
Apple just changed the map of Crimea to accommodate Russian needs. Incentives are everything. This is just a tiny example out of many. Incentives will, drop by drop, bend all the incorporated companies to follow the profit

An eternal question: why I should care to feel better? Every moment is instantly in the past and I don’t care If I experienced pain one year, one day or five sec ago. That’s why achieving wellbeing is a fragile, esoteric, abstract form of art.
