okay here's a problem.
all this self-work has done a great job at reducing the amount of fear i generally carry with me.
but it also means i've lost motivation to do stuff that fear drove me to do.
i kinda feel this way about my creative pursuits, namely software dev.

love this.
during my "awakening journey" (idk whether to call it that) over the past couple years i've come to rely too heavily on protoscientific concept-maps to explain reality without actually confronting it.

After almost 8 years of its existence, the @pnpmjs way of structuring node_modules is now available in @npmjs
It feels like a little victory.
Now the pnpm node_modules (and the hoisted node_modules) are available in @yarnpkg, @npmjs, and @pnpmjs

people are individual human beings with endlessly rich and interesting personal histories and lives, difficulties, challenges, uncertainties, confusions. When we steamroller all of that with our urgent neediness to generalize, we discourage them from connecting with us as humans

idea: a gameshow called Imposter Syndrome where you take 10 senior developers and tell them that one of them is actually just a sales guy who's been taught to say DevOps buzzwords. to win, they have to figure out who the fake dev is. the trick: there is no sales guy

I started a new experiment with my new “one sec” Shortcuts Automation app: it enforces to take a deep breath before opening social media. After two weeks of use, my screen time is down by more than 40%:

But how does it work?

We made a website that generates full @wizards_magic Magic the Gathering cards using @CohereAI and @WOMBO
We made it to the front page of hacker news yesterday
Try it out at urzas.ai @urzas_ai!
this is a thread about how we did it!

if you ask me, humanity has actually done a pretty good job considering the circumstances
born without explanation, imperfect and weaker than other animals but mentally gifted
from out of the caves to exploring the galaxy, earnestly trying to figure out wtf we’re doing here

Stories are spirits. Your spirit is your soul is your self is the story of your life as you tell it to yourself.
Spiritual health is about learning to control what stories you allow yourself to tell yourself, choosing those that make you grow in positive ways.

I made a joke in another about all of the autistics being postrats now, but I do want to explore a little bit of what I mean. I'm picking on rationalists a bit today, and I'd like to augment my critique with an alternative that some of them may find compelling.
