If the house could track your location (motion, ir) the house could rotate so the sun/moon was always looking at you through the window. For what that's worth

Optimized voice typing? A special voice-code. Like Thufir Hawat did in Dune (the old one). Because I can talk way faster than type. And if we could just iron out the bumps. Remove ambiguities and such. Surely that's been done. (Or even

Frog not fro. I had visions of truly rank dreadlocks. In which case growing mushrooms is not much of a leap, lemme tell you.

When you are alone, reading text, online, you are in a kind of trance, a little bit asleep. A bit closer to your unconscious self than the usual walking-around-doing-stuff self. This unconscious self is a bit more animal, a bit less civiliz

It really makes me wonder if something like this is running inside my head. The prompt tho. Probably not text. Probably a stream of vibes or something.

It seems rather manipulative and insincere. When I'm talking to somebody who practices these techniques, I'm not really talking to them.

If you fail to notice a doorway, does the effect still apply? Are chronically forgetful people aware of doorways that the rest of us are not? Can doorways (that bring about the effect) be purely subjective and personal? If a person is beset

Forgetting your dreams when you wake up in morning. The doorway effect could explain that too. Bigger door = bigger/more frequent effect.

Art is for getting high. The process of making art gets the artist high. The consumer of the "art product" gets high too, but in a somewhat different and lesser degree.

I think you can improve yourself. Is that the same as improving the world? I mean, if you are a worm then you see the world through worm's eyes. Then, if you become a butterfly, you see the world through butterfly's eyes. So the w

"Those who are habitually concentrated" I like that description. In meditation, the first trick we learn is a refined form of concentration. So such people have a definite leg-up. (They were the preferred recruits among the Buddhi

Everybody in my office (dev) prides themself on their great power of concentration. They can really get in the zone. Hyperfocus on that software all day. But concentration has a dark side. When you focus on one thing you ignore 1000 other t

You just need the right grammar. Design a bunch of operators and operands that do exactly what you want. Make that your working medium. Translate to and from that for working with real world stuff. It simplifies the job immensely.
