Everything seems to be an addiction in that we need to always be channeling our energy in life. I think we use only one stimulus sometimes bc we think it will provide permanence and it's so easy to find a flow with something you consume as opposed to generating substance yourself. But idk I'm addicted to explaining reality |

We need new athletes all the time because we need new games every day - fudging just a little on the definition of the word 'need.' We like to have new games every day, and, if we are to have a constant and endless flow of games, we need a constant flow of athletes. |

Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it. But all science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws - a thing which can never be demonstrated. |

In many places in the developed world, we eat or waste probably twice as many food calories as we really need. We're wasteful of food. We ship all over the world. We're now realizing that generating the energy to ship the food around the world is also ruining our climate. |

Architects have to become designers of eco-systems. Not just designers of beautiful facades or beautiful sculptures, but systems of economy and ecology, where we channel the flow not only of people, but also the flow of resources through our cities and buildings. |

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom. |

Increased government spending can provide a temporary stimulus to demand and output but in the longer run higher levels of government spending crowd out private investment or require higher taxes that weaken growth by reducing incentives to save, invest, innovate, and work. |

Sometimes we pay too much attention in Washington to public relations, as opposed to the substance. |

I like to think that my works flow like music. That may be one reason I work in large groups versus one picture of one thing; it's the flow of the whole series that counts. |
| Lao Tzu |
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. |
| Ken Ham |
Our public schools arbitrarily define science as explaining the world by natural processes alone. In essence, a religion of naturalism is being imposed on millions of students. They need to be taught the real nature of science, including its limitations. |

Humans need to ground their energy with a clear objective. Or else being lost in thoughts brings you to the ineffable why of everything and you will hurt. Most people ground themselves with the authority of others but if you've had enough experiences and/or time alone to begin thinking independently you will see the damage that societal authorities do and be antisocial and lost in your own analyses. Addiction and depression or extreme arrogance or maybe all three. Left with all your energy to ground by yourself, there is still no sovereignty when the design of the universe governs our drives and sets our limits. Our energy is already grounded by the callings of life itself. That is the real authority.

A dream from 2012:
"I'm in my old neighbor's kitchen and [this guy from work] is there making breakfast. He's putting some water like substance in a plastic case with different compartments. Then he put egg in one compartment and mixed it up. The water like substance and the egg did not mix and then he took the egg out with a fork and looked really proud of himself."

Scotland Produced Enough Wind Energy To Power All Its Homes Twice Over
Wind turbines in Scotland generated 9,831,320 megawatt hours between January and June 2019, WWF Scotland said Monday. The numbers, which were supplied by WeatherEnergy, mean that Scottish wind generated enough electricity to power the equivalent of 4.47 million homes for six months. That is almost double the number of homes in Scotland, according to WWF Scotland. By 2030, the Scottish government says it wants to produce half of the country's energy consumption from renewables. It is also targeting an "almost completely" decarbonized energy system by 2050.

That's interesting. In certain environments I find it very easy to adapt my personality accordingly. The arrogant will inherit the meek. Although, in seriousness, arrogance begets results, and I don't like to be sincerely mean, but I find it to be highly effective in quickly solving some interpersonal problems in certain arenas.

but I mean how hard would it be to augment a societys reality.
like what would you have to do create a fake building in everyones reality? or have a whole fake world for people to live in?
i cant find the study, but they made sensors to put on your arms in conjunction with a VR headset and it would make items in the game physical boundaries in real life, by shocking you at different levels to simulate an actual physical barrier.

Movie idea: find a bunch of random video clips and ask several people to put them in the "correct" order. Then find the order they agree most on and play them in order to make a trippy movie and do some small touches up to make it flow a little better. Then you can remove more frames from each successive scene to make it look like time is moving faster.

life is the result of the struggle between dynamic opposites, form and chaos, substance and oblivion, light and dark, and all the infinite variations of yin and yang. when the pendulum swings in favor of one, eventually it swings in the favor of its opposite

Qualtrics doesn't let you force a response on all questions. Pretty lame, right? What am I supposed to do when I generate a survey for crowd-sourcing but I don't want to manually go through hundreds of questions to add validation?
Well, here is the hacky solution.
1. Set validation on one question.
2. Export the survey. This downloads the survey as a QSF file.
3. Open QSF file in a text editor and find the validation you set for that one question.

Human thinking is born out of some sort of neurological defect in the human
body. Therefore, anything that is born out of human thinking is destructive.

Religion has invented that wonderful thing called charity. It is the most
vicious and vulgar thing that we have done. Nature has provided us with a
bounty. But we are individually responsible for the inequities of the world.
