I second this comment. "A guide to a good life" was the first book on stoicism I read, that link was posted before and led me to it, and it really helped me a lot. I would also recommend the "Tao of Seneca" 3 PDFs that T

Michael Pollan actually talks about this in his book Second Nature. His father never cut his lawn and the neighbors had the same reaction, but his dad fought back as well. Really cool book if you want to read about gardening and how society

I haven't read the paper yet, but I plan on reading it tonight. It's so great that this came at a time where I've been researching Neurofeedback treatment, how Meditation effects certain brain activities, stoicism, and other

Oh wow HET is really interesting, I never knew or thought about that type of work, thanks for the information! Do you know if most jobs in HET/HUMINT are for Military personnel only?

This reminds me of charities and other organizations that only want to bring on experts. I really would like to join something like this but I feel that I'm not an expert in that area. I know I could provide a lot of value and show the

This is pretty cool. When I was younger I was hooked up to a game that was similar to EKGs with the connectors on my head and I would have to concentrate to play the game. It's great seeing its available for anyone with a phone. I thin

This is pretty interesting, and thanks for the link. This is now making me think how people with ADHD (like myself) can use this to understand how they think. I just read people with ADHD can start creating false memories with situations be

This is super interesting, and someone let me know if I'm interpreting it wrong. This reminds me of times when I go back home and I have to remember a route to get somewhere, say the mall, and in my head I following a path that I remem

This reminds me of a post on HN where someone put a picture of a Duck on a wireless charger, giving it a brand identity and the charger was selling like crazy. Users identified with that brand over a charger that was brandless.
