I really prefer to read and hear original seeing over hermeneutics but admittedly using the latter to scaffold your theorizing makes the generation stage much simpler

I've said it before and I'll say it again: premature optimization is huge for building yourself as well. Don't go through epicycle after epicycle fitting to the niche parts of your situation—build the base stronger and better

Which viewpoints you present can be much different than those viewpoints you skew toward

Given that we the people have no capacity or attention to self-organize to "hold power to account", it is absurd to expect us to do so, or diagnose that as the problem.
Whoever did have that capacity would simply become the new leadership.
Focus on the leadership.

Where is the Pyramids of Giza of websites? What is the Cathedral of Notre Dame or the Temple of Artemis of websites?!
Where is the web Acropolis!
We must build it!! We must put forth this wonder into the world. I have convinced myself. Though I do not yet know where to begin.

There's been a 200-year long design trend towards "clean" and extreme legibility, which should be questioned. There's more constraints on corp sites than ever (i11n, a11y). But personally?
Ask yourselves: What kind of website would Chaucer make? What about a Pharaoh? Cleopatra?

they may, in fact, not be playign any of those other games. but if they don't know where the "no games, no really actually seriously none" lever in their brain is, they have no wya to pull that lever, let alone to be seen pulling that lever, so there is no trust

Ok, I can’t actually think of an example of my original intuition, but one that feels vaguely similar to me is “the paperboy noticed that route wasn’t the best” (though obviously the emphasis does get reinstated in this one)

Interesting that it seems like it’s just the second “it’s” that wants to show its verb—“it’s what ‘tis” seems ok to me. Reminds me of other places that seem technically grammatical but where eliding the word that should have had the emphasis causes painful ambiguity: ...(1/2)

- write a journal entry every day
- read the previous day’s journal entry
- look closely for the conceptual metaphors that are structuring my thinking
- understand the affordances of the metaphors i’m unconsciously using, what they imply, suggest, allow for
- try new metaphors

I sometimes whitelist this as an acceptable strategy if I want the progress to be deployed at a convenient time, eg for healing purposes or momentum reasons. Seems silly but for now I don’t have a great alternative

Okay, I figured something out, related to this thought.

I have partly been optimizing for hoarding progress that will be useful later *at the expense of advancing*.
Anti-speedrunning. Eager loading.
I’m letting that sink in a little.

Ah, I really like this use of contempt and hadn't noticed it before. I have a really impoverished model of "taking oneself too seriously" and contempt and mocking (I think from some blind spot)—do you have more basic model there, and/or know why Nietzsche was so into mocking?

Sometimes negative-toned thoughts show up after I do something and claim that their intent is to decrease the frequency at which I do the antecedent thing.
But when punishment works, it typically works within the first few reps. So if it’s been more times than that...

maybe you can't do much without feedback loops, but feedback loops can be internal, and don't have to just be about overall success or failure. seek detailed and internal feedback

Still thinking about this, many years later. Particularly as it relates to psychological “momentum”.
So frequently, we calculate what to do next based on some metric that fails to take our mental representations into account, and then surprise it doesn’t work well. twitter.com/diviacaroline/…
