  1. Playing around with drush and ubercart... this Drupal stuff seems a lot better since I last fooled around with it. Nicer themes, too.
  2. @PerryMarshall Evolution, adwords-style: http://tinyurl.com/ybykf98 (i.e., organisms ripping off genes from their competitors)
  3. Reformatting the print layout on all 37 of my monthly CDs so I can sell back issues through Vervante. The CDs should look nicer now, too. ;)
  4. I think my loss rate may already be slowing down, but I'd be happy with 1-3 pounds a week from here, if it remains as effortless.
  5. 4 days, 4 pounds, no diet. Looks like mindhacking for the win. (This, after 2 weeks of bouncing up and down on a diet I couldn't stick to.)
  6. @tsarna Personally, I'm still waiting for my flying car. ;-)
  7. Trying to learn to tell the difference between "mouth hunger" and "stomach hunger". Mouth-hunger drives sudden cravings & feeding frenzies.
  8. Personally, I think Sawyer's recipe is the one I'd use. But Libby's made me LOL. As in actually laughing. Out loud.
  9. How to make a sandwich if you're a character on LOST: http://fyamnky.tumblr.com/post/324403933/how-to-make-a-sandwich-on-the-island
  10. So I never aimed for midpoints -- it was always do the perfect thing now, or do the quick dirty thing and "maybe, someday" the better thing.
  11. And the funny thing is that the buildup was never about my ambitions/desires per se; I just felt I had to solve ALL problems in advance.
  12. Just identified a multi-decade pattern of building up big visions, and then feeling forced to tear them down and do something small.
  13. @PerryMarshall General semantics and Zen both have in common the understanding that there isn't any such thing as "really is".
  14. @PerryMarshall Btw, this article also suggests why people insist on arguing what a thing "really is": http://tinyurl.com/ycwz5zo
  15. @PerryMarshall And I don't answer them because they can't be answered consistently if the definition in use can be swapped afterwards.
  16. @PerryMarshall That's why I say that if you fully expand the terms in your questions, they will cease to make the points you think they do.
  17. @PerryMarshall Notice that "Albert" and "Barry" do not disagree except in terminology. Same applies here.
  18. @PerryMarshall You misunderstand me; point is to *define terms*; see: http://lesswrong.com/lw/np/disputing_definitions/
  19. @PerryMarshall But either way, a better expansion is required, else the question is still equivalent to the tree/forest/sound conundrum.
  20. @PerryMarshall Btw, an additional ambiguity: whether you mean "perceptual control systems" as instances of the class or the class itself.
