QOTE
> The good quote is 'The proper exchange of ideas between free individuals keeps tyranny at bay.'
& ...however media centralization and widely popular material escapism distorts societal discourse.
> A the related quote is: '...the problem with hierarchies is that people stack up at the bottom and that they tilt toward tyranny across time'.
> Fuller context: 'If you're going to values some things more than others then hierarchies are inevitable. You have to value some things more than others or you don't have anything valuable." "Like beauty or strength or something." "Or competence. ...whatever it happens to be. The ability to play the flute. It doesn't matter what it is. Obviously if you value music you are going to value some musicians more than others because some are better. So you have to value things in order to more forward in life, and you have to value things in order to have something valuable to produce. But if you play out the value in a social landscape you produce a hierarchy. The problem with producing a hierarchy is that a small number of people are going to be more successful than the majority, and a very large number of people are not going to be successful at all - at that particular thing. It's inevitable.
& ...So you say "we have to put up with that because we need to pursue things of value". OK fine, so that is the right wing perspective - the hierarchies are justifiable and necessary.
& The left wing perspective is 'yeah but wait a minute, the problem with hierarchies is that people stack up at the bottom and that they tilt toward tyranny across time' and that's also true.
& You need that dialect in society between the right wing that says you know "we need the hierarchies and they are useful and you should be grateful for them, they structure you and give you form and provide value"
& and the left that says "yeah but they exclude people, people stack up at the bottom and that is dangerous to the hierarchy itself, it means that people might not have opportunity" and you have to say yes to that (too).
& The problem comes -and this is the situation we are in right now- where the radical left-ists (and this is mostly a problem that really permeates the Universities) say "Yeah but all hierarchies are just tyrannical power", it's like oh no their not. Hierarchies are based on competence in a functioning society and mostly our society functions... ...That doesn't mean that hierarchies don't tilt toward self interest and tyranny across time but that's a bad thing. Even a bad thing from a conservative perspective. There's room for the left because the poor will always be with us and the dispossessed need a voice, not least because there are talented people among the dispossessed and if they are stuck at zero everyone suffers because we don't have access to their talents. It's bad use of resources. On the right its like "no, we need the damn value hierarchies, we need to be grateful for our traditions and structures because they stop us from degenerating into chaos."'

> Circular economy: 'is a regenerative system in which resource input and waste, emission, and energy leakage are minimised by slowing, closing, and narrowing energy and material loops. This can be achieved through long-lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing, and recycling. This is in contrast to a linear economy which is a "take, make, dispose" model of production.'

> Memory Palace: 'the subject memorizes the layout of some building, or the arrangement of shops on a street, or any geographical entity which is composed of a number of discrete loci. When desiring to remember a set of items the subject 'walks' through these loci in their imagination and commits an item to each one by forming an image between the item and any feature of that locus. Retrieval of items is achieved by 'walking' through the loci, allowing the latter to activate the desired items.'

MARRIAGE
QOTE
> 'Child of divorce, professional who dealt with divorcing couples for many years, Adult who went through a divorce, remarried and volunteer counseling/mentoring for couples today.
& Here are the most common mistakes I've seen (my own as well as collectively) in the failed and struggling marriages I've seen:
& One or both spouses have unresolved childhood baggage issues that will rear its head in their adult relationships. Examples of these include (but not limited to) physical or emotional abuse/neglect in the home; sexual abuse; one or both parents had substance abuse/addiction issues; one or both partners came from a divorced or single parent household. Among the many reasons why this is such a significant factor is if you grow up in a dysfunctional environment, you have no idea how dysfunctional and unhealthy it really is. To you, its normal, it is all you've ever known. So if Mom and Dad resolved conflict by getting drunk, yelling at each other and then not speaking for days, guess what you have a chance of modeling as an adult in your own relationships?
& Understanding what "marriage as a priority" really means. When you get married, your marriage has to be the main priority in your life. Not your career, not your spouse (i.e. don't put them on a pedestal), not your kids, not your hobbies or your personal fitness. The fact is, when you get married, you no longer get to call all of the shots. Gotten used to staying up all night playing XBOX with your boys on weekends? Not going to work in a marriage for an extended period of time. You're going to have to accept the fact that if you want to have a healthy marriage, compromise is your new word of the day. In some cases you may have to give things up entirely, or learn to say "no for now." While this often tends to be more of a struggle for men, women can also struggle with this issue. I'm not saying that getting married means giving up you completely, or kiss all of your favorite activities goodbye. What I am saying is, if you want your marriage to be healthy, you now have someone else in your life who gets an equal (not dominant--equal) say in how you spend your free time.
& Poor communication skills. A shockingly high number of adults lack basic healthy communication skills and conflict resolution skills. Its heart breaking to have conversations with struggling couples who won't speak to each other with a kind word for any reason. Both spouses should feel that their marriage is the one safe place in the world for each other. Unfortunately, in many instances, it is the last place a spouse can go for emotional safety. If you don't feel your partner is your first friend, your best friend, your most trusted friend, then something is broken in your communications with each other.
& Vastly different backgrounds. Don't get me wrong. Anyone can be successfully married to someone else if both people are committed to it and willing to work on it. But most of the time, that's just not the case. Societal/familial pressures are real, and it is important to assess them if you find yourself in a relationship that is impacted by them. Are you dating a trust fund baby/very wealthy child and you are the Jack Dawson? Tread carefully. It makes a great movie, but statistically, Rose winds up marrying Cal far more often than running off with Jack, because she doesn't want to deal with the family pressure or get cut off financially. Sorry, that's reality, not the movies.
& Similar to different backgrounds, different motivations in life. Do you know what your partner wants out of life? Do they aspire to be an artist who welds clown sculptures out of mufflers? That's great, but will it support the two of you, and if it won't, will you be okay supporting them while they're making Pennywise the Dual Exhaust Killer? Do they want to be a stay at home parent? Are you okay being the sole breadwinner? What if it is the reverse?
& One. Union. Combined. Together. This notion is one that I see a lot of guys--especially high wage earners who are the sole income for the family--stumble over. Whether you are religious or not, the fact is when you get married you are no longer two individuals. You're one. The law sees you that way, the tax code (at least in the US) sees you that way, and society sees you that way. There is no such thing as "mine and yours" in a marriage. There is only "ours." The faster you get that concept nailed down, the better off you'll be. I've seen many marriages collapse just over this issue alone.
& Marriage is not an event, its a journey. So many couples stop trying to pursue each other after the wedding day. Guys and girls do this. Stereotypically/historically, men tend to focus on their careers/making money; women tend to focus on raising the children and/or managing the household. (I realize not in every situation) Both spouses stop taking time to compliment each other, appreciate each other, go out on dates, weekend getaways, or generally just spending time chasing after each other. They take each other for granted and begin to drift apart. "We just fell out of love" is one of the most common phrases I hear in couples struggling, and the sad thing is, its one of the easiest traps to avoid.
& Friends and family around the marriage. This is especially hard for people who come from dysfunctional families. When you get married, your new spouse automatically gets moved to the front of the line. In front of your parents, siblings, lifelong besties, etc. They're great to have in your life, but all of them have to take a distant back seat to your new spouse. If you're a guy who has had a doting mother all your life and she's told you what to do, who to marry, where to go to college, etc, you have a tough job ahead of you. The Monster-In-Law stereotype exists for a reason. If your new wife turns pale when your Mom's number pops up on your cellphone, you need to talk to your wife and find out what boundaries she'd like to have installed. If you are Daddy's little girl and nobody has ever been good enough in your Dad's eyes, its time for you to tell Dad that you're so grateful for his love and support, but Jim is more than good enough in your eyes, so you need him to be in his eyes, too. And sadly, if you have friends or family members who are toxic to you or your marriage, you may be forced to make a very difficult decision in your life. Anyone who sits around bitching about how much they hate their life, their spouse, their kids or how you're going to eventually feel the same way about yours--put distance between you as fast as you possibly can. We tend to adopt the attitudes of the company we keep. So if you spend all your time with negative people...guess where you're going to be mentally?
& Date to establish trust. Time is actually your friend, not your enemy. Do not ignore ANY red flag you see in a relationship. Examine it for what it is, then determine if it is something you can work through with the other person, or is it something they refuse to acknowledge or deal with? If you're dating someone who is selfish and they refuse to see it, they will not magically become unselfish because you were kind enough to marry them. Red Flags ignored in dating will become the rocks upon which your marriage boat smashes in the coming storms. If there are multiple red flags and they won't talk to you about any of them, walk away. It doesn't matter if you've already moved in, share the bank account, the dog, and a car. Get out now. If they're not willing to work on things that impact the security of a relationship today, you can count on them not working on them after you get married.
& Marriage is not easy. It requires a lot of work sometimes, even when you are both on the same page, have great communication, great sex (which will happen very easily if the rest of the relationship is healthy by the way) and great chemistry. People get sick, they get laid off, their family members die, children get sick, get hurt in accidents, friends have affairs, get divorced...life is challenging and it impacts our relationships, sometimes in ways we're not expecting or prepared for. If you're not willing to value your marriage above everything else in your life, its going to be really hard for it to survive the day in and day out challenges of living.'

SIBYLLINE BOOKS
PERS : neauoire
SRCE : Merveilles
QUOTE
> A long time ago there was a small, but prosperous town in the middle of a great plain. The town saw plenty of foreigners passing through with exotic wears, stopping on their way from the great cities that surely lay far beyond the horizon. As a prominent way-point, the town found itself never in want, not only of the necessities of life, but of many of the luxuries as well. So one can easily imagine their reaction to the unsightly old hag who strode into the town on a bright autumn afternoon carrying a sack full of a dozen dusty books.
& "All the knowledge and wisdom of the world," She said, "Only one sack of gold!" The men and women at the marketplace chuckled at the old woman. A whole sack of gold for twelve dusty books? It didn't matter what was in them, that was an outrageous price! Their own books usually sold for a gold piece each, at best, and that only for the highest quality binding and printing. A trading village was no place to sell books, besides, considering how busy everyone is with commerce all the time; most books were bought for show.
& The woman tried to peddle her goods all day, but found it impossible to attract the attention of even the most credulous buyer. "Leave me alone," one would say. "I have plenty of books already," said another. "Obviously you don't know everything, or you would have left already" the more snarky in the town would opine.
& Finally, as the sun was setting, the woman approached one of the other vendors and bought a bit of firewood. She dug a small pit, placed six of the books in, along with the wood, and started a fire right in the middle of the marketplace. This attracted the Mayor, who scrammed the woman out of the village, but not before the books had burned to ashes.
& Winter came, and the town was hit hard by blizzards lasting well into March. They were a frugal lot, however, and always planned for such a contingency, and so they braved the winter well. Summer brought the normal volume of trade, and the town was back to normal by the next autumn, when the old woman returned again.
& "Not you again," the Mayor said as she entered the town. "Are you still selling the same nonsense?"
& "If by 'nonsense' you mean all the knowledge and wisdom of the world," she replied, "No. I now only have half of it remaining. I have changed the price, however." At this the townspeople nodded at each other sarcastically. Of course she's changed the price, they thought, because she only has six dusty old books left. "The remaining books are only two sacks of gold!" The woman sat down among the merchants and laid the books out in front of her, waiting for any takers.
& "You must be joking," A man said, "You can't charge twice as much for half the merchandise! We are a trading town, well-versed in business and exchange. You can't expect us to buy books of such low quality for a price so high!" The woman merely sat there, and when the day ended without any takers - but with considerably more jeering than in the previous year - she repeated her ritual and burned half the books. The morning after the woman left, a few young people from the town ruffled through the dying embers of the fire, searching for an odd page, but all was ashes once again.
& Another year passed, and this was a hard one. Again the winter was long, and harvests around the countryside were poor. The summer trading caravans were less frequent than they had been in decades. In the end, the city managed, as it always had, but there were whispers that another hard winter would spell serious trouble.
& When the old woman arrived in autumn, she was expected. The Mayor greeted her personally, "Madame, we would like to look at your books. We will not be able to offer you two sacks of gold right away, but we are ready to form a committee to investigate the worth, and, in a few weeks, we will be able to make a suitable offer."
& The old woman looked back at him. "These three remaining books contain a quarter of all the knowledge and wisdom in the world, and I cannot part with them for anything less than four sacks of gold."
& "Four sacks of gold is out of the question, madame, but if you would consider our offer..."
& The old woman simply shook her head, and proceeded to burn two of the three remaining books, leaving the town to fend for itself for another winter.
& When she returned again the following year the town was desperate. Trade had all but ceased, and the granaries were less than half full. The winter was just around the corner, and already it was cold and windy, though the summer had only just ended. The whole town anxiously awaited the old woman, ready to swallow their pride and purchase her remaining book.
& The woman entered the town cautiously, holding the book in front of her. "Are you now ready to buy my book. It contains one-twelfth of the knowledge and wisdom of the world, and it is exceedingly valuable. I can only part with it for twelve sacks of gold."
& The Mayor looked back, "We had only budgeted for six." The woman started digging her fire-pit. "Now hold on," the Mayor said, "We can give you ten, but we need something to get us through next summer's trading season." The woman kept digging. As she placed the book into the pit, along with a little kindling, the Mayor finally gave in. "You win," he said, "We'll give you twelve. It better be worth it."
& "It is," the woman replied. "You should have seen the rest of it."

QOTE
> It's very easy to read, extremely lucid
& The problem is, it's still a difficult read
& At least at the moment, I'm early in the book, so there are a lot of things going on, some of them horrifying
& A mix of xenophobes, fascists, and antisemites did some horrible things to toddlers :c
& Traditional teaching of the history of the revolution in russia kind of ignores the horrific things that were happening that led up to it
& I'm also going through the TTC russian history course ('From Peter the Great to Gorbachev'), and as far as I can tell, they completely pass over the mass protests and the sheer disregard for human life that the previous regime had (edited)
& I recommend it, but it's a difficult read for the same sorts of reasons that "Why I don't talk [to white people] about race" is a difficult read

NOTE : Critique of Jordan Peterson
QOTE
> Important
& "(This is the core of the bill: making sure people aren’t denied employment or housing, for example, because of their gender expression or identity. The pronouns stuff is supplementary, besides being misrepresented by Peterson.)"
> Funny
& "We should note that Peterson is very comfortable with non-binary approaches to categories he sees as forming the roots of civilisation — when it suits him. In another interview he says:"
& "People often ask me if I believe in God. I don’t like that question. First of all, it’s an attempt to box me in, in a sense. The reason it’s an attempt to box me in is because the question is asked so I can be firmly placed on one side of a binary argument. The reason I don’t like to answer it is, (a) I don’t like to be boxed in, and (b) because I don’t know what the person means by ‘believe’ or ‘God’. And they think they know. And the probability that they construe ‘belief’ and construe ‘God’ the same way I do is virtually zero."
> Summary
& "The root dynamic of the clash here, though, seems to be between the fact that legislation like C-16 is specifically meant to protect a minority who often suffer at the hands of rigid categories that work for the majority, whereas Peterson’s general fight is with the radicalism in postmodernism which seeks to completely dismantle those categories. Peterson sees the latter at work in the former, which I think is a paranoid overstatement."
> "In trying to get an easy-to-grasp handle on all this, it’s interesting that Peterson himself supplied me with the crucial tools. As with his opposition to binary ideas of belief in God, it’s testimony to the fact that he’s worth listening to for insight, even if you have to wade through some bile, and make some connections which he doesn’t manage."
> "Peterson isn’t intending harm, or intending to undermine people. But — as he’ll be the first to point out in other contexts, e.g. communism — good intent is never enough. One has to pay attention to systemic unintended harms. There’s some truth in what Peterson is saying (alongside the distortions and occasional falsehoods). But even this truth is sometimes — especially in the transgender debate — blackened by a certain blindness."
> Conclusion
& "There are serious and present threats to stability and social cohesion, but they owe far more to shifts in economics and ecology than to shifts in sexuality and gender. Postmodernism needs critiquing, since, as David Kidner showed, it’s implicated in our ecological crisis. But it needs better, less blind critics than Peterson. And freedom and civilisation need better, more far-sighted champions."

PERS : neauoire
SRCE : Merveilles
TAGS : productivity
NOTE
> "do you know the hand-eye relationship?""
& the oscillation between liking what you do and hating it
& anyways, there’s this period where you get more critical, your mind’s designer-eye-thing gets wiser, and your hand(skills) have trouble keeping up and you loose your faith in your own skills
& so you look at your own work(music, art or writing) and feel like a noob, right?
& but then your hand(skills) rise to the challenge, and you get better than your mind’s eye, and you feel happy with your own work
& so now keep this in mind
& this gets REALLY interesting when you know more than 1 craft
& so let’s say you could skip these down hand periods by moving to another media
& if you can only ever draw, cannot write music or write. Then you are subject to this graph, with no escape.
& "knowing this biorythm is why I started to log, and my plan was to know exactly when I should jump to the next medium" - neauoire
& "you chain the highs together by rotating" - sebastian
& "there’s value in knowing when precisely you should hop over." - neauoire
& I find that for me, music takes a lot of priming to work
& If I give in to writing music whenever I feel like writing music, I only acumulate days of lesser focus
& but if I wait 3 days after I had the initial urge, I get a day or two of focused music writing.
& "ok so, 2 things, acknowledge the hand-eye relationship, and using that intersection to hop on over to the next"
> "It's definitely not time, as you can get stuck in the middle of a low and never progress if you don't either persevere through or switch" - heapaepaemnunea
> "You should also track other factors that could have an effect on your productivity: weather, diet, hydration, sleep, exercise, etc." - josh
> "I think these other factors are going to affect the dynamic range of the curve, but not the curve itself (edited)" - neauoire
> "The last time I tried logging (several month stint) I spent too much time doing the logging and ended up despising it... but at the same time of course weather, diet, hydration, sleep, exercise would effect productivity and reviewing that could be valuable T_T" - kor
> "classic mistake
& after a while, you have so much data, that it doesn’t really need to be so granular
& like, my predictions don’t really change that much if I predict the curves from 500 days, or 5000 days back." - neauoire
> "The explanation of 'stream switching at lull' makes me regret not starting years ago. The explanation helps *A LOT*. I also wonder if it works the same for everyone." - kor
> "so during these lull periods I find it helpful to my "eye" to spend time perusing other art casually. My subconscious does the analyzation and compares my work in the background." - sebastian
> "well the best indicator of that is:
& while you are doing this other media, let’s say art, when you go back to music you’ll notice an improvement.
& @kor I dont think it’s the same for everyone, but wouldn’t it be fun to find out what works for you :)" - neauoire
> "Example: Work on music while watching bladerunner in the background. Then when you get exhausted from music, Work on art the next day using inspiration from bladerunner and listen to similar artists in the background. Rinse and repeat." - sebastian
> "Also, exercise is a funny one, because you can treat it as a skill as well as a general improver, so you can include it in the routine if that helps practicing it (getting into it and keeping it going), but you probably don't want to push it super high either unless you're going for athlete." - heapaepaemnunea
> "i dont do pomodoro because i dont take orders from fucking robots" - floatvoit
> "To add to the thread earlier in #the-lobby. The idea of rotating around different creative practices to match your flow and interests rang a bell for me. It reminded me of Jung's explanation of _circumambulation_. "There is no linear evolution; there is only a circumambulation of the self". It's mostly used in a spiritual context of finding enlightenment, and described as an orbit whose center is both the self and the goal. However, some can say that _the self_ is, in fact, partly the art that you are creating. It's an extension of you. And as a multidimensional person who has many different skills and interests, one can be seen as fleshing out the different faces of the self as they orbit through their varying interests. Your interests are different faces of the same object. Every time you make a rotation around the obelisk of _self_, you see a different version of you." - sebastian
& "If the psychology can be mapped precisely. You can use the appropriate symbolism in a UI to help guide and prime movements in this metaphysical space and facilitate consistent workflow for users. This is one of my goals." - sebastian

NOTE
> For animations for productivity or frequent use:
& Translation of self (think rollercoaster) or desired targets (teasing, shifting hitboxes) that the user is not in control of (scrolling is OK) should be avoided.
- Subtle translation animation *out* is acceptable.
- Translation animation *in* of dense content is not desireable.
& eg: Horizontally sliding pages. Translate out and fade out the old content, fade in (no translate) the new content."

> Amor fati: (lit. "love of fate") is a Latin phrase that may be translated as "love of fate" or "love of one's fate". It is used to describe an attitude in which one sees everything that happens in one's life, including suffering and loss, as good or, at the very least, necessary, in that they are among the facts of one's life and existence, so they are always necessarily there whether one likes them or not. Moreover, amor fati is characterized by an acceptance of the events or situations that occur in one's life.

> The hardest thing about logging, is logging itself, and to keep doing it. Optimizing redundant logs, turning them into quick codes, like the fh/ch codes to generate the task/hour made this whole process a lot more fun. Giving instant feedback, through dataviz for instance, was excellent too.
> The biggest adjustment to my lifestyle, that I made recently, that yeilded the biggest difference, was to record more data. I've recently pushed this further, and started offloading almost all thought that goes through my mind at all time onto this digital paper. It has slowed time, helped me with focus and mindfulness.

TYPE : quote
QOTE
> Alan Moore: “In latter times, I think that artists and writers have allowed themselves to be sold down the river. They have accepted the prevailing belief that art and writing are merely forms of entertainment. They are not seen as transformative forces that can change a human being, that can change a society. They are seen as simple entertainment. Things with which to fill 20 minutes, half an hour while we are waiting to die.
& It is not the job of artists to give the audience what the audience wants. If the audience knew what they needed then they wouldn’t be audience, they would be the artists. It is the job of artists to give the audience what they need.”

TERM
> Turbo: compressor forcing additional air into an engine to allow for increased fuel ignition and thus increased power output. A turbo has two halves, one is driven by the exhaust from the engine the other forces air into the engine. Negative 'turbo lag' time until the engine can provide enough exhaust to spin up the turbo compressor.
> Supercharger: Like a turbo but instead of being driven by exhaust gas it is driven mechanically (belt to engine). Negative Takes power/efficiency away from driving engine output in order to drive the compressor.
> Electic supercharger: fully electronically driven turbo (generally powered by a higher voltage (48v) seperate from car 12v). Negative high electricity use.
> Electic turbo: a hybrid electric-assisted turbo (generally powered by a higher voltage (48v) seperate from car 12v) using a DC motor to start the turbo spinning sooner to remove turbo lag or at low revs when not enough exhaust to produced. Once the engine is providing enough exhaust to spin the turbo the motor will stop output. It can also be a seperate electric supercharger working in conjunction with a standard turbo. Negative complexity.

NOTE
> "A pioneer in the ecology movement,[4] Bookchin formulated and developed the theory of social ecology and urban planning, within anarchist, libertarian socialist, and ecological thought. He was the author of two dozen books covering topics in politics, philosophy, history, urban affairs, and ecology. Among the most important were Our Synthetic Environment (1962), Post-Scarcity Anarchism (1971), The Ecology of Freedom (1982) and Urbanization Without Cities (1987). In the late-1990s he became disenchanted with the increasingly apolitical lifestylism of the contemporary anarchist movement, stopped referring to himself as an anarchist, and founded his own libertarian socialist ideology called Communalism."

TERM
> Hypocognition: a term introduced to modern behavioral science by anthropologist Robert Levy, means the lack of a linguistic or cognitive representation for an object, category, or idea. The Martinique islanders were hypocognitive because they lacked a cognitive representation of refrigeration. But so are we hypocognitive of the numerous concepts that elude our awareness. We wander about the unknown terrains of life as novices more often than experts, complacent of what we know and oblivious to what we miss.

CELESTIAL NAVIGATION

TAGS : boat, env
NOTE
> 'Celestial Navigation in the GPS age'
> "Personally, learning celestial nav, really added to my journeys, making me feel incredibly connected to the surface of the sphere we are rotating on, and within the sphere of stars we live within. It has added a real 'beauty' for me, admittedly I am mathematical, and a bit of a hippy, but the added awareness of seeing stars move overhead as you move North and South, and over the equator, is pretty magic. 120 nm moved north or south changes all the angles of the stars you see, and the angle they rise at from the equator. (It's called amplitude) You can then really FEEL how you're moving over the surface of the globe. YOu can really start to 'feel' the spherical nature of the planet/galaxy/universe where we all live. You can 'feel' the equator. The world stops being flat, and becomes 'angles' and spheres. For me, I stopped thinking in terms of countries and boundaries, and just started to feel 'curves' and rotation."
& "You're artists, and 'tech nerds', you are in a perfect position to understand celestial nav for its utter eye-opening magic. It's not just about working out a lat/long, it's about understanding your relationship on the globe to it's rotation, it's angle to the sun, the position of the sun and stars as they themselves move. Then picking a single magic moment, measuring some simple things, and starting to work out intersecting circles and lines."

Often, this universe already exists in the protagonist's world as a fictional universe, but it may also be unbeknownst to them. The new universe can be an entirely different world where only the protagonist has any memory of their former life, as in Saga of Tanya the Evil or one where they reincarnate in. It may also be one where a formerly virtual world turns into a real one, such as in Log Horizon and Overlord."

Imagine you woke up naked in a field, in the middle of nowhere. You have no idea where you are, or how you got there. What do you do? First, you’d probably go into survival mode; you’d look for the basic necessities to sustain life: water, food, and shelter from the elements.
Once you had everything you needed to stay alive, and you knew that, if nothing else, you could at least remain in your current location indefinitely, you might start to wonder what in the hell happened: one minute you’re bouncing around Reddit, the next you’re bare-ass in the middle of nowhere.
After you come to grips with the reality of the situation, you’d probably want to try and figure out where in the hell you are. You might try and look for clues from your environment or maybe a constellation you recognize, or perhaps you decide to do a little exploring around the immediate area, to see if there’s anything around that could give you some clue as to where in the hell you are.
Let’s say that your efforts reveal that you’re in the middle of Africa. Once you’ve figured out where you are, you only have two choices left: stay there and simply exist as long as you can, or attempt to get back to civilization; either option has it’s own risks.
If you chose to stay where you are, then that’s essentially it for you, you now know how your future will play out: you’ll remain at your current location until you either die of old age, or your area becomes unable to sustain life. Either way, the game is over for you; your entire existence becomes about survival, and you’re just running out the clock until, at some point in the future, you cease to exist.
Maybe you decide to try and leave a message for someone to find in the future, maybe you’re content to simply fade off into oblivion, either way, your fate is sealed.
Now let’s say you decided to try and get back to civilization. Since you know where you are, your logical next step is going to be to try and figure out someplace to go, and then of course, how to get there. Now you have a goal, something you’re striving towards. Life ceases to be about mere survival and becomes an epic journey to get you where you want to go.
This is the timeline of humanity. We woke up with nothing, on a little rock, in the middle of nowhere. We figured out how to survive, and we struggled to come to grips with our own reality. Then we started exploring, trying to find out just exactly where we were in the Universe. Now we’re faced with the same choice: exist, or move on.
You ask if it’s something that a “regular guy REALLY needs to know”, to me it’s the most important thing he/she needs to know: that humanity chooses more than an existence of mere survival. That humanity chooses to move forward and keep exploring and expanding. To know that, even though we might never make it, at least we’re making the effort. That we have hope.
The alternative is to simply run out the clock and wait to fade off into oblivion.

TERM
> Feng-Shui
> Chinese art/science meaning 'wind and water', 'that which cannot be seen and cannot be grasped'.
& "Recognized that certain powerful currents and lines of magnetism run invisible through the landscape over the whole surface of the Earth. The task of the geomancer was to detect these currents and interpret their influences on the land through which they passed."
& "It was the aim of the geomancer to place every structure precisely within the landscape in accordance with a magic system by which the laws of music and mathematics were expressed in the geometry of the earth's surface. The landscape itself may be manipulated in order to achieve the harmony sought through the placement or adjustment, or removal, of trees or rocks, or bodies of water. Every feature of the landscape may be contrived to produce an effect which ultimately is perceived as beautiful; indeed, perceived beauty in a landscape may in fact be simply when the lines of the dragon current are in balance.
& At the outset, a geomancer must locate the course of the major lines of the dragon current in his or her area. These days, it is claimed that such energy lines can be detected, and traced, through dowsing."
> Lung-Mei: Chinese Feng-Shui lines of magnetic force meaning 'dragon current'. "...existed in two forms: the yin, or negative, current represented by the white tiger, and the yang, or positive, current, represented by the blue dragon. The landscape will display both yin and yang features; gently undulating country is yin, or female, while sharp rocks and steep mountains are yang, or male."
> Luopan: A Feng-Shui circular magnetic compass. "which was marked off in rings containing data relating to astrology, directions, the elements, landscape forms, times of day, and so on."
> Ley Line: 're-dicovered' on 30th June 1921 by Alfred Watkins (1855-1935)
> Turingas: Aborigine "dream lines"
> Geomagnetic field (Earth's magnetic field)
> "The magnetic field that extends from the Earth's interior out into space, where it meets the solar wind, a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun" "The magnetic field is generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of molten iron in the Earth's outer core driven by heat escaping from the core, a natural process called a geodynamo." "Using magnetoreception various other organisms, ranging from some types of bacteria to pigeons, use the Earth's magnetic field for orientation and navigation."

> "A magnetic field (MF) is an inescapable environmental factor for plants on the Earth. Krylov and Tarakonova (1960) were among the first to report on MF effects on plants. They proposed an auxin-like effect of the MF on germinating seeds, by calling this effect magnetotropism. The auxin-like effect of MF was also suggested to explain ripening of tomato fruits (Boe and Salunkhe, 1963The effect on magnetic field on plant growth has a different dimension than plant growth without magnetic field, including the pest and disease dynamics. Crops like , Okra, Tomato and Eggplant plants which were exposed to EMF were observed with less number of insects and pests compared to those not exposed to EMF( International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 3, Issue 10, October 2013 1 ISSN 2250-3153)."

QOTE : "One of the problems there for a lot of people is identifying which you need requires understanding what your threat model is. Most humans have never heard that phrase, let alone had thoughts about it. So these decisions are then made for them and they choose based on usability, they choose based on where their friends are, they choose based on which chat messenger has inline gifs rather than which one has end to end encryption. People make poor choices, not because they don't care but because they don't know and they don't understand what they are necessarily giving up." - Amber Baldet, The Oslo Freedom Forum in New York: Why Decentralization Matters, Unchained: Big Ideas From The Worlds Of Blockchain And Cryptocurrency

DATE : 12018-09-29
QOTE : "We must do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be emploted at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian-Darwinian theory, he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living." - Richard Buckminster Fuller (1985 - 1983)

REGENERATIVE ECONOMIC THEORY
DATE : 12018-10-05
TERM
> Regenerative economic theory: "an economic system that works to regenerate capital assets. A capital asset is an asset that provides goods and/or services that are required for, or contribute to, our well being. In standard economic theory, one can either “regenerate” one's capital assets or consume them until the point where the asset cannot produce a viable stream of goods and/or services. What sets regenerative economics apart from standard economic theory is that it takes into account and gives hard economic value to the principal or original capital assets — the earth and the sun. We cannot do much to affect the sun although we can value access to the sun in such areas where access can be influenced. Therefore, most of Regenerative Economics focuses on the earth and the goods and services it supplies.
& Regenerative economics is completely comfortable within the capitalist economic framework. Recognizing the earth as the original capital asset places the true value on the human support system known as the environment. Not having this original value properly recognized has created the unsustainable economic condition referred to as uneconomic growth, a phrase coined by leading ecological economist and steady-state theorist Herman Daly, as stated in the book Reshaping the Built Environment.[1] The authors of the regenerative economic theory believe that uneconomic growth is the opposite of regenerative economics."

MONEY OUT OF NOTHING
DATE : 12018-10-17
QOTE : "Thus it can now be said with confidence for the first time - possibly in the 5000 years' history of banking - that it has been empirically demonstrated that each individual bank creates credit and money out of nothing, when it extends what is called a ‘bank loan’. The bank does not loan any existing money, but instead creates new money. The money supply is created as ‘fairy dust’ produced by the banks out of thin air. The implications are far-reaching."

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
DATE : 12018-10-17
QOTE : "I know the secret to happiness. It took years of introspection, observation, and comparison, analyzation, insecurity, but I finally figured it out. It feels like it was under my nose the whole time. All you have to do is learn to appreciate the world. Appreciate everything. Love everything for what it is. Embrace the fact that everything has a reason, don't try to deny anything for the sake of being right. And after all, hasn't true love always been thought of as complete appreciation for a partner with no thoughts or intentions to ever change them? Unconditional love. I understand that term now. Because you realize that no matter how horrible a person's decision might seem, he or she has a reason for it. Nobody is a bad person, some just have a little more weighing on their conscience."

WHY WATER BATTERIES
DATE : 12018-10-20
NOTE : "When a charge current flows through a fully charged conventional lead acid cell, electrolysis of water occurs to produce hydrogen from the negative electrode and oxygen from the positive electrode. This means that water is lost from the cell and regular topping up is needed."

SBS 100F
DATE : 12018-10-22
TYPE : list
NOTE
> Recommended operating temperature range for optimum life and performance is 20°C to 25°C
- On constant voltage float charge systems the design life expectancy is 10+ years at 25°C and 15+ years at 20°C
- Can be operated in the temperature range -40°C to 50°C
- Battery capacity is affected by the discharge rate, end voltage, temperature and age.
- Battery life is reduced by 50% for every 10°C increase in temperature.
> Can be installed in any orientation except upside down (vents on the bottom)
> Flame retardant (UL94 V-0) case
> Gas emission is virtually negligible
> Constant voltage chargers are recommended. The acceptable float voltage range is 2.27-2.29Vpc at 20ºC and 2.25-2.27Vpc at 25ºC
- 13.62-13.74v float at 20ºC
- 13.50-13.62v float at 25ºC
- 2.27Vpc + 0.004 mV per cell per °C below 25°C
- 2.27Vpc – 0.004 mV per cell per °C above 25°C
> Recommended float voltage temperature compensation is:
- 10ºC: 2.33 Vpc
- 15ºC: 2.31 Vpc
- 20ºC: 2.29 Vpc
- 25ºC: 2.27 Vpc
- 30ºC: 2.25 Vpc
- 35ºC: 2.23 Vpc
- 40ºC: 2.21 Vpc
- The minimum charging voltage, at any temperature, is 2.21Vpc
> Do not discharge the battery beyond the voltage cut-off limit for the given discharge rates:
- 1.80Vpc @ 10 hr rate
- 1.75Vpc @ 8 hr rate
- 1.75Vpc @ 5 hr rate
- 1.70Vpc @ 3 hr rate
- 1.60Vpc @ 1 hr rate
- 1.60Vpc @ 15 min rate
> Every six months maintenance
- Measure battery string voltage
- temperature
- float current
- inter-module resistances and internal ohmic values
- if necessary adjust the float voltage to the correct value
- The individual module voltages must be within ± 0.30V of the nominal float voltage
- Inspect for contamination by dust and loose or corroded connections
> The battery and ambient temperatures can be significantly different. Batteries have a large thermal mass, and there is a substantial time lag between changes in ambient and battery temperature. Sensors on the side of blocs should be insulated from ambient temperature. Place thermometer sensor:
- Front terminal models - in the centre of the side wall of a bloc, in the middle of the string
- Top terminal models - attached by a ring terminal to the terminal of a bloc in the middle of a string
> There is no limit on the charging current provided the float voltage is set at the recommended value as the battery itself will regulate the current, accepting only as much as is required to reach float voltage.
- Fast charge 2.38 volts per cell at 25°C (14.28v)
- However, it is recommended that this higher potential only be applied until the charging current remains constant for a period of two hours. The voltage should then be set at the recommended float voltage.

SOLAR FUZES
DATE : 12018-10-22
NOTE
> Why
- Fuzes are to protect the wiring from damage in the case of a short or surge.
- It acts as the weakpoint in the curcuit, so if something goes wrong it will break where you expect (the fuze) rather than heat up and melt/burn wires which can cause a hazard (fire).
- Fuse on positive wire for convension's sake.
- Fuse as close to power source as reasonable.
> Fuze requirements
- between PV and CC
- between CC and BB
- between BB and inverter
> Fuze sizing
- https://www.renogy.com/blog/how-to-fuse-your-solar-system/
- CC to BB - match amperage of CC.
- eg: 30a CC = 30a fuze.
- PV to CC - PV output + 25% rounded up to nearest fuze.
- eg: 24v 15a PV setup = 20a fuze.
- BB to inverter - see inverter's manual. General rule: “Continuous Watts / Battery Voltage times 1.25"
- eg: 1000W 12V inverter draws up 83~ continuous amps + 25% safety factor = 105 Amps, round up to 150a fuse.

LUGS (TERMINALS)
DATE : 12018-10-22
NOTE
> Battery Bank: ring terminal lug (depends on battery connection). Match thickness to BB wire thickness and hole size to battery connection.
- eg: 25mm2 BB wire and M6 battery connector = 25x6 ring terminal lug.
> Solar panels (PV): MC4 connectors must all be the same source/brand for certification.

OGHAM
DATE : 12018-10-24
NOTE : Ogham is an old Irish script made by carving notches into stones. It fell out of use more than a millennium ago - but it's an interesting exception to a linguistics and computer-science rule that I'd never even realised existed. Let's talk about the Ogham Space Mark.
