You correct a fool and gain an enemy. You correct the wise and gain a friend.

I’m in love with this sentence: “Consistency looks like nothing is happening, until everything changes.”

big fan of saying “thank you for pointing that out to me” because I in fact do not know everything and benefit highly from alternative perspectives

There's a physicist at Stanford named Safi Bahcall who modeled this exact principle and the math is wild. He calls it "phase transitions in human networks." When you're stationary, your probability of a lucky event is limited to your existing surface area: the people you already know, the places you already go, the ideas you've already been exposed to. Your opportunity window is fixed. When you move, your collision rate with new nodes in a network increases nonlinearly. Double your movement (new conversations, new cities, new projects) and your probability of a serendipitous encounter doesn't double. It roughly quadruples. Because each new node connects you to their entire network, not just to them. Richard Wiseman ran a 10-year study at the University of Hertfordshire tracking self-described "lucky" and "unlucky" people. The single biggest differentiator wasn't IQ, education, or family money. Lucky people scored significantly higher on one trait: openness to experience. They talked to strangers more, varied their routines more, and said yes to invitations at nearly twice the rate. The "unlucky" group followed the same routes, ate at the same restaurants, and talked to the same 5 people. Their networks were closed loops. No new inputs, no new collisions. Luck isn't random. Luck is surface area. And surface area is a function of movement. The lobster emoji is doing more work than most people realize. Lobsters grow by shedding their shell when it gets too tight. The growth requires a period of total vulnerability. No protection, no armor, soft body exposed to the ocean. That's the cost of movement nobody posts about. You have to be uncomfortable first. The new shell only hardens after you've already moved.

My basic principle is: If you’re an adult, have whatever lifestyle you want, under the law. Just don’t force me to fund it, celebrate it, consent to it, participate in it, learn about it, or take the consequences for it.

If X is mostly an illusion, I think I'm gonna do some crazy shit just for fun.

Here's how you know someone is highly intelligent

Remember back before AI when we thought the source of stupidity was the lack of access to information? Well, it wasn't that.

Esmu 1. tipa diabēta slimnieks. Ikdienā lietoju glikozes sensoru – tas brīdina par bīstamu cukura kritumu vai kāpumu, īpaši naktīs, kad var iestāties infarkts vai insults. Latvija ir vienīgā valsts Eiropā, kur šos sensorus neatmaksā. Tie maksā ~45€ uz 10 dienām, un daudzi to vienkārši nevar atļauties. Vai cilvēku dzīvības tiešām nav prioritāte?
