A random variable is not actually random at all, but a *function* that maps outcome to outcome value.

my philosophy in a tweet, as things stand: ontology: play, experiment epistemology: expand, amplify philosophy of religion: explore theology: infinite politics: divisertainment moral philosophy: inner -> outer meta-ethics: outer -> inner
FWIW here’s me — Ontology: not sure Epistemology: not sure Philosophy of Religion: weak agnoticism Theology: not sure Politics: not sure Moral Philosophy: not sure Meta-ethics: not sure

i’d like a term that references the opposite of this meme. i create epic mental constructs/stories that turn the most mundane suffering into loving action adventures; and i like my rosy glasses; and no, i will not take them off.
i'd like a term that references this concept we have doomscrolling as a verb and nouns like echo chamber and rabbithole, but no good term to refer to the 'entire environment' that someone quite-online has constructed for themselves

Imagine you finally get all the knowledge, data and understanding you dream of. You then deploy all the stuff that you know. Systems, structures, outputs. All of it. Okay Tough Question: Now what? After all possible simulations have run their course, many times: Now what?
Imagine you finally get all the power, control and wealth you dream of. You then buy all the stuff that you salivate over. Toys, homes, experiences. All of it. Okay. Tough Question: Now what? Seriously. After the party gets old: Now what?

perhaps it would be fun to come back to this moment and breathe it in; maybe look how far we’ve made it?

The primeval urge for zazen
🚨 GEN Z IS PUTTING THEMSELVES IN “TIMEOUT” - AND CALLING IT HEALING No phone. No TV. No music. No food. Just silence. They’re calling it “raw dogging boredom.” 15 minutes of sitting completely still with zero distractions. Some say it’s weird. Others say it’s genius. Is this the dumbest trend yet or the smartest thing we’ve seen in years?

imagine 20 of the smartest people alive that know everything about this person, all trying to help them build a beautiful life, step-by-step, based perfectly on their individual personality, and they fumble it. …why did this person fumble it?

@DefenderOfBasic i need a fourth letter;; re: A/B/U. i would assign you the letter D=(A-B)(B-A). the info you share is useful, i do not agree with a solid portion of it, you do know many things i do not, and you will eventually see the things i do that you don’t (yet), and

i am not the one that can bridge that gap, as the bridge itself is part of the missing component;; that is D, then there is E, F, G, H, etc etc which carry smaller weights but when combined, they greatly affect your U<-B<-A memetic structure

Replying to @CEOLandshark
people think that you failed if your mind wanders, but that’s the point. every time you pull your attention back in, it’s like one rep in the gym. eventually, you’ll get stronger at holding your attention

starter’s meditation hack: set timer 20 mins, lay down and put a pillow over your eyes, relax every single muscle, including face jaw shoulders arms legs etc, count exhales only, to 10, repeatedly, without losing count. report/track if you feel more effective rest of your day

What would you do here? Utilizing advanced tech unavailable to man, diving deeper than ever achieved, you find a key that wasn’t new, but older than we have records for. Statistically, the depth alone shouldn’t be possible, nor finding anything at all. You test key, it’s valid.

There’s uncertainty as to who wants it and why, and there’s a big fight for it, but even those fighting don’t know what it is for, just where it came from and that it’s old. But you do know, and it’s comically simple.
