【金句】Dr Jordan B Peterson - You should not overlook the guidelines of your culture...
你不應該忽視你文化的準則…

matters.town/a/ksuybvzz2kof

人們不該預設視自己文化的「全部」(不是部分)為過時、無用的
而且甚麼算是自己的文化的一部分也不一定很清楚
共產主義很喜歡「破四舊」(破除舊思想、舊文化、舊風俗、舊習慣),幻想自己能夠及將會成為由零建立新社會的創世者

Watching the Revision live stream

Someone (I don't remember who) had suggested I do some Blender things at Revision and I said I didn't know that I could make it out to Germany but in retrospect I absolutely could have and kinda wish I did

I mean I do love tracker music and computer graphics, I hope to make it to Revision some day for sure

I would call your attention to a significant sequence of events.

1. Trump attacks Harvard.
2. Harvard refuses to fold.
3. Universities around the country start to form a mutual defense pact against Trump.
4. Trump now says that letter to Harvard was never supposed to be sent.

What it does show is that Trump, like bullies everywhere, folds when he faces firm opposition. So we need to put firm opposition in his face at every opportunity.

A Windows user, a Mac user, and a Linux user are given a complex task to complete on their system.

The Windows user downloads a new software package.

The Mac user finds an app in the App Store.

The Linux user spends three hours writing a bash script to automate it, then brags about how much time they saved.

It's safe to say that I will forever be in the minority of Mac users who use and actually rely on text navigation and selection shortcuts such as ⌥→, ⌥←, ⌥⇧→, ⌥⇧←, etc.

This means that I will forever be a victim of software engineers who cater to the needs of the majority, and neglect to make sure that their choices don’t interfere with the use of these shortcuts.

Case in point : it’s impossible to rely on these shortcuts in tables in Apple’s Numbers and Pages apps.🤬

@mcc because "simple" is not an objective measure, it's a diff against the experiences expectations and intuitions of a human mind, of many human minds, which are minefields of complexity. the most aggressively simple programming language is known, it's SUBLEQ, but it's completely unusable by humans.

In case anyone was wondering about my health situation -

I am taking Metformin now, and it seems to be going well. Some mild stomach upset occasionally but nothing terrible.

What really is *massive* for me: my weight isn't steadily ticking upwards like it always did. I am now wearing a Fitbit so there may be some behaviour change, but nothing purposeful. I'm using it to collect data, rather than as a goal setting or training guide.

I finally feel like I have some control over my body again 💪🥰
