epiphany - money is the only lens that business sees reality through - Just hit me how economics is the dominant and only metric that seems to matter to much of the business community - even in most research papers, we have to keep translating environmental into economic, as if the only people that matter are business people - it is indicative that we DO NOT KNOW HOW TO INTRINSICALLY VALUE NATURE

https://www.reddit.com/r/Zettelkasten/comments/126p7tk/what_its_like_to_have_a_conversation_with_your/

Your zettelkasten, having a perfect memory of your "past self" acts as a ratchet so that when you have a new conversation on a particular topic, your "present self" can quickly remember where you left off and not only advance the arguments but leave an associative trail for your "future self" to continue on again later.

Many thoughts and associations occur when you're having conversations with any text, whether it's with something you're reading by another author or your own notes in your zettelkasten or commonplace book. For more conversations on this topic, perhaps thumb through: https://hypothes.is/users/chrisaldrich?q=tag%3A%27conversations+with+the+text%27

If you view conversations broadly as means of finding and collecting information from external sources and naturally associating them together, perhaps you'll appreciate this quote:

No piece of information is superior to any other. Power lies in having them all on file and then finding the connections. There are always connections; you have only to want to find them.—Umberto Eco in Foucault's Pendulum (Secker & Warburg)

To what extent in this process is the client reconfiguring and refocusing on their relationship with those around them? Does the past have absolute process (in the Zulu incarnation)? It obviously may not in the Western practice, but perhaps the client may more easily come to terms with those around them as a result, and this is more beneficial than a "truer" outcome?

Announcement to be made on 2024-02-01 Thursday evening

Noise is anything interfering with clear communication; distractions that occur during communication that resolves in misinterpretation.

Internal noise: psychological or physical problem someone is dealing with during communication

External noise : Environmental components that cause distraction

Semantic noise: a disturbance in the transmission of a message; interferes with interpretation of the message due to words having more than one meaning.

A connotation: positive or negative emotional connection to a definition. connotative semantic noise is more of an emotional issue with the intended use of words.

Denotation: the literal meaning of a word; denotative semantic noise: when we hear or see language we cannot define therefore we cannot interpret.

Krishna is the incarnation of Vishnu. He's supposed to be the embodiment of a godlike character and hold many powerful qualities. He has many different character types he portrays in this story and is extremely accomplished. He urges the reader in a way to think about reincarnation which is obviously a big part of his character. "The place of the infinite spirit" (line 851) Krishna fits a representation of love, duty, honor and self control. Learning what type of character type Krishna is this early on is important to keep in mind as the story is read. If the reader doesn't understand the true depth of his character the story may not be as powerful. He shows many attributes of a fully developed character that knows the true power of who they are. In HIndu culture, a character like Krishna is all powerful but also shows a variety of character traits that make him a very admirable character.

for - dream theory - dreaming as default state of brain

• Dreaming can be seen as the "default" position for the activated brain
• when it is not forced to focus on
  • physical and
  • social reality by
    • (1) external stimuli and
    • (2) the self system that reminds us of
      • who we are,
      • where we are, and
      • what the tasks are
    • that face us.

Question - I wonder what evolutionary advantage dreaming would bestow to the first dreaming organisms? - why would a brain evolve to have a default behaviour with no outside connection? - Survival is dependent on processing outside information. There seems to be a contradiction here - I wonder what opinion Michael Levin would have on this theory?

• Concrescence is the process by which

  • THE MANY BECOME THE ONE and
  • THE MANY ARE INCREASED BY ONE
    • The "many" here refers to the past
    • the perished objects in the past environment

• There's another domain that whitehead makes reference to

  • He's a platonist in this sense, though he's a reformed platonist
  • He makes reference to this realm of eternal objects which for him are pure possibilities
  • i was mentioning Tim Eastman earlier
    • He calls this domain "RES POTENTIA", the realm of possibilities which have not yet been actualized
• And so for Whitehead
  • the realm of possibility is infinite
  • the realm of actuality is finite
• In the realm of actuality, there's a limited amount of certain types of experience which have been realized
  • but the realm of actuality draws upon this plenum of possibility and
  • it's because there is this plenum of possibility in relationship to the realm of actuality that
  • novelty is possible
  • new things can still happen we're not just constantly repeating the past

• Whitehead describes the process of concrescence or each drop of experience as DIPOLAR, having two poles:

  • a physical pole and
  • a mental pole

• Each concrescence or drop of experience begins with the physical pole

  • where the perished objects of the past environment are apprehended or felt and
  • these feelings of the past grow together into this newly emerging drop of experience
  • and then in the process of their growing together
    • the actualized perished objects of the past environment
    • are brought into comparison with eternal objects or pure potentials possibilities and
    • these possibilities INGRESS so there's
      • INGRESSION of eternal objects and
    • PREHENSION of past actualities
    • INGRESSION of potentials PREHENSIONS of past actualities

• and what the ingression of eternal objects do is provide each occasion of experience, each concrescence with

  • the opportunity to interpret the past differently
• to say maybe it's not like that maybe it's like this
• and so these ingressions come into the mental pole

• If the physical pole is what initiates the experience of each concrescing occasion

  • the mental pole is is a subsequent process that compares
    • what's been felt in the past with
    • what is possible alternatives that could be experienced that are not given yet in the past

• The subjective form is how the occasion fills the past

• The subjective aim is what draws the many feelings of the past towards the unification and the mental pole
  • where
    • the ingression of eternal objects and
    • the feelings of past actualities
  • are brought together into what Whitehead calls this MOMENT OF SATISFACTION
• it's the culmination of the process of concrescence
  • where a new perspective on the universe is achieved - This is the many have become one
• They are increased by one when the satisfaction is achieved
• It's a new perspective on the whole
• As soon as this new perspective is achieved
  • it becomes a SUPERJECT which is not a subject enjoying its own experience anymore
  • it's a perished subject
• The superject is the achieved perspective that has been experienced
  • but then perishes itself int a superject-hood to become
  • one among the many that will be inherited by the next moment of experience, the next concrescence and
• This superject has objective immortality in the sense that
  • every subsequent concrescence will inherit the satisfaction achieved by the prior concrescences

• And so this is the most general account in Whitehead's view that we can offer

  • of the nature of reality
  • the nature of the passage of nature
  • the movement
    • out of the past
    • through the present and
    • into the future

• Experience is always in the present and the satisfaction that is achieved by each moment of concrescence is enjoyed in the present

  • but as soon as we achieve that
  • it perishes and the next moment of concrescence arises to inherit what was achieved
  • and this is an iterative process
  • it's repeating constantly and it's cumulative
• It's a process of growth
  • building on what's been achieved in the past

cheap energy is a hell of a drug. we found it 200 years ago, our trip peaked about 20 years ago, and now we are getting sober, and most people hate it, because most people are stupid and have no "plan B", and when SHTF they will commit suicide, and before SHTF they will work for a suicide-culture to accelerate the collapse.

i already had this intuition 20 years ago at the age of 15... i spent some years on self-study of psychology, to make this intuition more conscious. my "final answer" on all the problems of this world is my book: pallas. who are my friends. group composition by personality type. because obviously, most people are too stupid to choose their real friends, and instead are exploited by enemies aka "false friends".

question - Does deep contemplative practice offers a direct access to the microscopic reality? - If so, how does it accomplish this direct communication with human cells, and indeed, even the universe itself? - Father Tiso shares centuries old recorded visual drawings of experiences reported by Rainbow Body practitioners and speculates whether these drawings represent direct experience of the cellular scale of our human form - Indeed, could it even be at the quantum level of experience, since rainbows are an optical phenomenal?

I started reading Parable of the Sower exactly one year to the date mentioned at the start of the book at the public library in Pasadena where she grew up. As a 49 year old father of a 12 year old daughter, it was a much more visceral and eerie experience than I could ever have expected. She has forever changed the perspective I have driving down the streets of our shared neighborhood.

I'm not sure if they'll have open remote registrations for it or if it will only be broadcast locally, but the local Octavia Butler Book Club has an upcoming zoom session on Feb 24 which can be found in the Pasadena Public Library's newsletter (.pdf). It will feature Dr. Kendra Parker via Zoom from Georgia to present her lecture: "Walking a Mile in Her Shoes: Exploring Octavia Butler's Archives."

The nearby Huntington Library houses her papers and some of her materials there may be accessible online.

Interview mit Hannah Ritchie zu ihrem Buch "Not the End of the World". Richie betont, das technische Lösungen vorhanden sind, um die globale Erhitzung zu stoppen. Wissen um diese Lösungen und bereits erzielte Erfolge erleichtere das Engagement, während Pessimismus lähmend sei. https://www.derstandard.de/story/3000000202689/klimaexpertin-ritchie-vieles-bewegt-sich-in-die-richtige-richtung

Certainly! Let's break down the provided code snippets:

1. What is it and why is it used?

In Mongoose, a schema is a blueprint for defining the structure of documents within a collection. When you define a schema, you can also attach methods to it. These methods become instance methods, meaning they are available on the individual documents (instances) created from that schema.

Instance methods are useful for encapsulating functionality related to a specific document or model instance. They allow you to define custom behavior that can be executed on a specific document. In the given example, the findSimilarTypes method is added to instances of the Animal model, making it easy to find other animals of the same type.

2. Syntax:

Using methods object directly in the schema options:

javascript const animalSchema = new Schema( { name: String, type: String }, { methods: { findSimilarTypes(cb) { return mongoose.model('Animal').find({ type: this.type }, cb); } } } );

Using methods object directly in the schema:

javascript animalSchema.methods.findSimilarTypes = function(cb) { return mongoose.model('Animal').find({ type: this.type }, cb); };

Using Schema.method() helper:

javascript animalSchema.method('findSimilarTypes', function(cb) { return mongoose.model('Animal').find({ type: this.type }, cb); });

3. Explanation in Simple Words with Examples:

Why it's Used:

Imagine you have a collection of animals in your database, and you want to find other animals of the same type. Instead of writing the same logic repeatedly, you can define a method that can be called on each animal instance to find similar types. This helps in keeping your code DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) and makes it easier to maintain.

Example:

```javascript const mongoose = require('mongoose'); const { Schema } = mongoose;

// Define a schema with a custom instance method const animalSchema = new Schema({ name: String, type: String });

// Add a custom instance method to find similar types animalSchema.methods.findSimilarTypes = function(cb) { return mongoose.model('Animal').find({ type: this.type }, cb); };

// Create the Animal model using the schema const Animal = mongoose.model('Animal', animalSchema);

// Create an instance of Animal const dog = new Animal({ type: 'dog', name: 'Buddy' });

// Use the custom method to find similar types dog.findSimilarTypes((err, similarAnimals) => { console.log(similarAnimals); }); ```

In this example, findSimilarTypes is a custom instance method added to the Animal schema. When you create an instance of the Animal model (e.g., a dog), you can then call findSimilarTypes on that instance to find other animals with the same type. The method uses the this.type property, which refers to the type of the current animal instance. This allows you to easily reuse the logic for finding similar types across different instances of the Animal model.

  • we need to make the transition acceptable and attractive for the vast majority of citizens, and the only way to do that, is to make the changes easy to adopt. This requires strong engagement with society at large, and policies that make sustainable life choices not only easier, but also cheaper and more attractive. Or, put it the other way around, it must be more expensive to destroy the planet or the health of our fellow citizens".
