Oooh, I got hit by one. I got a random email from a long time back community level friend/acquaintance. An old timer who seasonally migrates to a popular south of the border retreat. Over a back and fourth of vaguely brief emails aski

“Own time”? I guess I think of it all as my own time, even when I’m cashing out on bits and blocks here and there. One’s whole life should be a personal project no matter how you spend it! And the whole world is your teacher, you have to be

I have always thought it was the only way to thrive. All of this processing you have to do internally. You can and should learn from others yet the work has to be done on the inside. Stop oversharing. Your reliability is your only commodity

I really like tiddlywiki, especially since you can take offline self contained snapshots, and it is sooo customizable you can become “converted” to its way of doing things. There has long since been server versions, and recently they releas

Yes, and if there are unexpected issues driving up the unproductive yet necessary time, eat the hours. Integrity and foresight are the “premium.”

> Darkness isn't a force, after all: it's just the absence of light. Are you sure? From a perspective it appears darkness is drinking away the light to light’s last embers.

Dark is devouring the light. The spiritual communities are going bonkers about lizard people and other occult (and worse), not because that is actually true rather a psyop spiritual battle is boggling minds from within. The immoral and corr

All the time! Existence exists and life (consciousness) exists to experience it. Relationships. That’s way “it’s all about.” Relationships create more probability in the Universe, rather than everything merely winding down. More than an e

Yes, most of what is experienced is curated. Large parts of our minds evolved to suppress and filter raw perception, that it does not drive us mad and we can think with clear purpose upon consciously important issues (whatever they may be.)

Don’t call it “part time”, become an independent contractor, focus on a niche, and only bill how ever many hours you like. I have spent long periods of time only billing ~3 hours per day. Great for life/work balance. Btw, the more you

The idea of developing symbiotic living systems is more appealing than the very modern “what can I monetize by this” topic angle. Sure, sensors are cool. Living technologies, even cooler!

Sounds necessary, even on some level of community vigilance. Simply doxxing the offending parties and their operations for a level playing field seems praiseworthy. Good luck with that!
