Emotional intelligence (or competence) is highly non-verbal. In my personal path I've tried impro, biodanza, and some variants of therapeutic theater. Biodanza for me was the hardest but also the most rewarding: https://en.w

That's because _patisserie_ is really a combination of processed ingredients (fruit is mostly decoration). Should my obese friend grind wheat into flour, turn milk into butter, juice sugar canes into sugar, he'd surely bake less a

If you try to measure the subjective through objective values, you will only measure what you think about yourself. If I ask myself "how much did I learn today?" it is more judgement about myself rather than an objective value. I

Our true values (as human beings, not organizational values) are not measurable. I may want to become closer to my family, so I schedule more time with them. Spending time with them makes it more likely, but it may also go in the opposite d

I took up biking as an adult again by biking with rental bikes in Mexico City (government owned) and they are built like tanks for durability, not for riding pleasure. When I finally got on a "real" bike, I flew. I was much faster

Thank you! Brevity in code is underappreciated. People think it is about file size (and it partially is) but it is mostly about understanding what the code does so that you can extend it in the way that you want. This looks like a true foun

Author here. I’ve been meaning to release a second version of the game, will probably tackle it in 2020 (this game is around eight years old and needs a complete rewrite to work on mobile)

Anecdota about depression and exercise: * It's not getting in shape what lifts depression, it is physical activity in itself. You generally feel better after exercise. It becomes much easier to hit the gym after realizing the reason

One must consider that Alan Watts himself was a magnificent old rascal. He made no pretense about it and described himself as a "philosophical entertainer". When you verify his teachings (either by experience or by going to the so

Congrats on the change in careers, Glen. My own journey follows a very similar arc. For a rational person it's incredibly lonely: the spiritual community often sees the rational mind as a hindrance into more subtle realms, and the rati

This reminds me a bit of Alejandro Jodorowsky's approach to psychotherapy[1], in which trauma and neurosis are resolved by performing an act related to them. For example, if conflict was left unresolved with someone who has passed away

I don't think anybody would argue that the alternatives are better than JSX (if it were, why use JSX at all?), the step that you want to avoid is transpiling jsx. Why? Javascript's tool chain is complex, once you're using jsx

That was an interesting read, thanks! In HN you will find a very hostile audience towards the idea that an _inner world_ exists at all. This is unfortunate, when I denied my inner world I lived only half of what I experienced, and I insiste

Feedback: very interested on the topic of your book, but seeing the marketing tactics and your response to criticism seriously put me off. I’d rather support more agreeable authors. Content ignored indeed.

A simple self-experiment if you haven't read the paper, find which of these sentences are bullshit. Answer in order without reading further ahead, and don't go back to change your answers (as to replicate experimental conditions).
