I mean, I'm assuming you already know and don't have to do the experiments here. |

No, we are not anti-white. But we don't have time for the white man. The white man is on top already, the white man is the boss already... He has first-class citizenship already. So you are wasting your time talking to the white man. We are working on our own people. |

We're not uncomfortable with it, and we've already been through enough of the music business where I'm not really worried that commercial success is going to in some way - we're already past saving, you know what I mean? It's too late for us. |

I came across awful characters when I got some kind of status and came to Hollywood. Then you have directors trying to sleep with you, assuming that you will do things because of the way you dress. |

What does it mean to a successful woman today? Does it mean you have to be a mother? If you are a mother, does it mean you have to be a mother with a husband? If you don't have a husband, what is the role that the man plays? I think there are a lot of confusing things that we're all really still sorting out. |

True respect means taking other people's beliefs seriously and assuming they are adult and intelligent enough to be able to cope with it if you tell them, clearly and civility, why you think they are totally, utterly and disastrously wrong. |
| Gary Ackerman |
Looking forward, it might prove constructive to examine the true historical record of an issue prior to assuming the worst of anyone's motive and deconstructing and questioning anyone's Democratic bona fides. After all, we liberals got feelings. |
| Howard Gardner |
I align myself with almost all researchers in assuming that anything we do is a composite of whatever genetic limitations were given to us by our parents and whatever kinds of environmental opportunities are available. |

God knows how many things a man misses by becoming smug and assuming that matters will take their own course. |

The standard rumor at the time was that Rumsfeld, as chief of staff, had persuaded President Ford to appoint George H.W. Bush as director of Central Intelligence, assuming that that got rid of a potential competitor for the presidency. |

Followers of the occult believe in only what they already know, and in those things that confirm what they have already learned. |

weird. cool. i don't understand the implications. m-theory says we have 11 dimensions. i don't know how many are spatial or wound up to make spatial dimensions. i wonder if these experiments are consistent with that sort of thing. from a more abstract standpoint it seems like the world is all just information and you can perceive it an infinite number of ways. 3 spatial dimensions seems like its just a perspective.

Of course, you can’t stick electrodes on every person watching TV and browsing Facebook. But you don’t need to. The results from experiments on small neuro-focus groups can be used to influence voters who aren’t being sampled themselves. If, for example, biodata reveals that liberal women over 50 are fearful when they see an ad about illegal immigration, campaigns that want to stoke such fear can broadcast that same message to millions of people with similar demographic and social profiles.

This is the last time I'll post here while procrastinating a machine learning assignment (assuming no revisions need to be made after the poster presentation). A reflection on my first year of grad school: I have never been so consistently miserable. Sure, undergrad was hard, especially senior year when I was cramming in an entire computer science minor, but the challenge was rewarding. The huge class sizes at Michigan are demoralizing. It feels like a factory. Being on the instructor side as a GSI is equally frustrating. I don't actually know how everyone is doing, so I can't what the majority of students actually needs. Office hours are probably my favorite part, since people come in who are motivated and have concrete questions that I can help with, which is great. But the entitlement of students on Piazza is horrible. I probably shouldn't take it so personally, but it's hard not to. I feel like I'm not good enough at anything.

Most likely these kinds of experiments are more useful in their assertion that experiential life and even most of science and physics takes place in a collective illusion about the characteristics and function of the universe. Ultimately the only provable observation we can make is that reality displays many layers of information to our awareness and hides others.

I don't get it. So you don't believe it? I think it's good that you don't believe this. I don't think you are destroying yourself. I think you're just looking at things a different way.

I had some kinda dream that was a mix of this cooking guy youtube guy, these podcast science guys, and prozd. I wanted to ask them to do some experiments on what the best mac n cheese noodle shape is. Like what is the best shape to carry all the cheese sauce? Does it need to have some structure so you can get a good bite? What are all the relevant factors?

and if it seems so far fetched that scientists are splicing animals together in secret experiments, take a look back at the countless ancient texts from the beginning of our known time speaking of hypbrid animals. this is in sumerian culture, egyptian, greek culture and more.
look for the slender thread that ties everything together to the truth. the concepts that have been repeating endlessly in our written history mean something.

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;

I used to have dreams but THC now swims through my veins. The same game everyday with no shame. It's my way of stayin insane. But you don't get no beauty sleep while shootin reefer straight to the face. You don't dream and your DMT it just don't release. But instead of ceasin this disease I'm just increasin it. Using weed to ease and disappear my feelings.
