Arup Sen

I want to say thanks again to all of my wheel clients who are continuing to use my services during this time of crisis. My workshop is in my home and so I am able to keep building and fixing bike wheels. Are you in SE London?

The function of language is to spread memes.

Statistics can be seen as the art of telling the difference between pattern and randomness.

To see non-random patterns and connections between events that are due to pure chance (coincidence) is the basis of superstition. Nothing magical or mysterious has occurred.

It ought to be a simple matter of education to combat superstition.

There is a great deal of money to be made by misleading the gullible.

There is nothing to stop a burglar’s house from being burgled.

Massive spike in wheel orders at the moment. How to get a work / life balance? Easy, build wheels while streaming on Twitch. 👍👍👍

This avidity alone, of acquiring goods and possessions for ourselves and our nearest friends, is insatiable, perpetual, universal and directly destructive of society.

My ear is pain’d, My soul is sick with ev’ry day’s report Of wrong and outrage with which earth is fill’d.

Everything that is unexpected affrights us. The most obvious conclusion is that human nature is in general pusillanimous. (We are a species of scaredy-cat light weights. )

So little are men governed by reason in their sentiments and opinions, that they always judge more of objects by comparison than from their intrinsic worth and value.

At a BBQ last weekend: “Careful with that sea salt, it’s very salty.”

The open declaration of our sentiments is called the taking off the mask, as the secret intimation of our opinions is said to be the veiling of them.

@zeubies Long stream. Nice to catch you.

Hey yall, thanks for the support on the return stream, even if it wasn't my best content I still had a great time catching up I'm guaranteed to be back to normal on the 28th of May, but i'm shooting for 2-4 vids and maybe even a couple of streams in the meantime :))))

We have no other notion of cause and effect, but that of certain objects, which have been always conjoined together, and which in all past instances have been found inseparable.

I believe everyone will readily agree agree with me, that the ideas of the memory are more strong and lively than those of the fancy.

My trusty Xbox 360 controller died on me today at the very start of my stream. I was forced to use keyboard and mouse. All good practice.

Wow 🤩 13 years! Can you believe it.

Sometimes more bitterness can be sown in five minutes than can be got rid of in a whole lifetime.

Using my iPhone 7 as a webcam and using it as a source in OBS was a huge upgrade from my current webcam. Did a short stream to test and it worked really well. Just an on the phone was all it took.
