The Ego Dilemma
- mgreenbe 17y agoA little bit of a tease: Unfortunately, the right way to deal with the ego dilemma is tricky and complex and deserves an entire post of it’s own. It really involves revamping your entire belief structure into something deeply probabilistic with a much finer and more nuanced representation of ignorance which I promise to write at a later date when I’ve fully processed what I’m actually doing. But still, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_thyself http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_thyself is always good advice.
- malarky 17y agoFeynman solved the Ego Dilemma. It's somewhere in his letters which got published recently, and goes along the lines of "I'm stupid, but it's okay, the process is gonna be fun!" Also "I feel like a monkey trying to get that banana." which might be more familiar.
