The funniest thing is that now I know what reverse spam is. You know you get spam from people saying, 'Can you invest in this or that?' People are now e-mailing me saying, 'Oh my God, can I invest in your company?' It's a reverse solicitation of money. |

Please all, and you will please none. |

The effect of liberty to individuals is that they may do what they please: we ought to see what it will please them to do, before we risk congratulations. |

You've just got to trust your instincts and realize that you can't please all the people all the time. You've got to please yourself ultimately in the end. |

Everyone's so timid and afraid to insult anybody, but in the end, it's like we're all trying to please everyone. In the end, we please no one. |

'London' is a gallery of sensation of impressions. It is a history of London in a thematic rather than a chronological sense with chapters of the history of smells, the history of silence, and the history of light. I have described the book as a labyrinth, and in that sense in complements my description of London itself. |

I very much dislike writing about myself or my work, and when pressed for autobiographical material can only give a bare chronological outline which contains no pertinent facts. |

Modernity is a qualitative, not a chronological, category. |

And as I stumbled onto Eastern philosophy and Buddhism, it was the first time I had ever read any sort of philosophy that really made a tremendous amount of sense. What I liked that was missing from my experience of Christianity growing up was a sort of acceptance, a sort of being OK with being imperfect and not focusing on the sin. |

Many of the engineers I interviewed worked on reverse-engineering technology. It's a hallmark of Area 51. |

I wish. I took a picture of the cookies and did a reverse image search with Google and it returned pictures of old guys.

Dream time! This time around I was in a simulation and trying to tell everyone else that it was a simulation. Unfortunately, they weren't real and also this made the simulation angry and try to stop me. Later it turned out that the simulation was actually in my mind and then it sort of turned into a lucid simulation where I could do anything. It was sort of like The Matrix. What a movie - wish they had made a sequel.

Maybe that's just an appreciation of honesty in determinism. Which seems sort of pointless, but I don't think I can help it... ;)

you should implement a reward system that gives you different titles based on some sort of statistics that you capture.

Could be. I feel like standard offers are 100~200k for that sort of thing and that PhD doesn't get you more money, just better opportunities for specific things.

Keyword search, recommended for you, the antithesis of a recommender, online gambling, some sort of buzz words or trending.

An idea that came from lots of caffeine and appeared to sort of work when I tried it. When alone, with no distractions, try to think of random and creative things. You will soon notice a sort of limitation to the form and rapidity that these things have and come into your mind. At that point, consciously choose to stop and think more outside of the box, with broader shapes and ideas. Feel out the edges of where this new approach can take you and you will soon encounter another wall of sorts past which your mind isn't really creative enough to go. At this point, again consciously stop imagining strange things and focus entirely on your senses and spatial awareness. For me I noticed that by trying to push the limits of the inside of my head I felt a noticeable difference in the way I percieved the "real" world. I felt as though the space my body and mind occupy have been given more room, more fresh air, more fluidity. This was especially noticeable with my hearing, which seemed much sha...

Whole Foods didn't have the spices I wanted... My entire worldview has been shattered. I sort of always thought it was the land of milk and honey and other organic shit.

Scientists Discover a Game-Changing Way To Remove Salt From Water
[T]he ability to quickly and easily desalinate water has long been a goal of scientists around the world. And now, a group of researchers from Columbia University believe they've found a way to do it. The process is called Temperature Swing Solvent Extraction (TSSE) and it's designed to purify hypersaline brines (water that contains a high concentration of salts, making it up to seven times as salty as seawater). This kind of waste water is produced by industrial processes and during oil and gas production and it poses a major pollution risk to groundwater.
