      Being safe for others https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-06-15:20.html … If you want the people around you to become better versions of themselves, one of the best things you can do for this is to make sure that it is safe for them to tell you things, by practising non-judgemental listening. This is hard.

      What's cooking? https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-07-10:05.html … Situations that create a forced abundance of an ingredient force us to cook in creative ways, which uncovers some interesting features of our relationship with food and cooking. Also contains a very tasty recipe.

      The rule of three twos https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-08-16:12.html … If you have three flavours any pair of which work well together, the three of them together is probably the basis for something interesting too. This simplifies improvisational cooking significantly.

      Maybe everybody was right all along https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-10-10:53.html … A lot of people have declared that COVID-19 has proven they were right all along. This seems funny, but is probably mostly true - there are many valid critiques of society, and COVID-19 exacerbates almost all of them.

      Trivial irritations as inhibiting factors https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-11-14:47.html … Sometimes you've got a long list of reasons why you don't like a thing, but they're are actually why you don't love it, and all you need to like it is to remove some trivial irritation that stops you doing so.

      Intuition as search prioritisation https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-12-11:35.html … Intuition gives us a cheap way of determining if something might be good, so having good intuition helps ensure we consider likely better options first. This is essential for making good decisions under time constraints.

      The memetic domus https://notebook.drmaciver.com/posts/2020-04-13-11:35.html … In which I gesture vaguely at several ideas about domestication and innovation and say "there's something here, right?", generalising the idea of the domus as a set of co-evolving replicators each selecting others to be useful to itself.

      OK I think I like the torque idea, Sorting Things Out is looking increasingly like something I want to read (when I regain the ability to read new books)

      I've found I've been able to read new books again recently by changing topics off my usual ones FWIW

      Hm maybe I should try that! Managed a chunk of The Courage To Be Disliked, which is annoying but readable anyway, so I may finish it. Just bought Magee's Confessions of a Philosopher (which turns out to be 592 pages long wtf, but some bits look good)

          I am also continuing to bang my head against On the Origin of Objects, which I can read because I'd already started it, even though it's much more difficult. Why is this a thing?

          For me the core of the problem seems to be that I've had enough new feelings to deal with and I don't want any more thanks, so as long as books are familiar enough to avoid that or on non feelings subjects it seems mostly ok.
