"Al-Baqir is reported to have told one of his followers that if in this world people need a guide to travel even a few miles to a strange place, then what of the path to heaven of which they are far more ignorant?" - Arzina Lalani, Early Shi’i Thought p. 75

Sikh. Minority. Asiatic Aryan. Love the bay area & wouldn't change a thing about it.

Antiquity. Love epistemology, epistemology of pharmacology, trying to cultivate an empirisme érudit. Taleb's epistemology and Curt's epistemology. Stoicism, want to know more about Byzantium, John Gray too.

Experience in Node/Mongo/R/scipy(prefer R) for statistics operationalized to say Kruschkes books few chapters

Since i'm interested in learning probability theory I have an interest in machine learning,

I'm interested in Popper's negativism & preference for asymmetry, Charlie Mungers "Inverse problem" as insight into the situation and all other related applied esoteric affairs.

Best way to learn about me is to see my bookshelves and my amazon purchase history.

Post-Election Stress Disorder: A New Diagnosis?

Thanks for mentioning this, I'll check out imba.io. Also the essay itself is a classic, I wonder what other new techniques or technologies have been invented that let us beat the averages, other than just lisp, though.

I was wondering why the dot product wasn't 32! Good thing I checked. Also this seems like a cool new language, I need to learn a functional language, I wonder how far this language will go in development.

Just fyi there are non upper caste Indians, I’m Sikh so caste distinctions are forbidden for us. I’m a “Saini” my name is Ricky Saini and I’m not sure this fits with my experience as a lot of the people in my family(who are Indian of course) are not upper caste. I would be shocked to learn if this was true. Just so you guys know the modern Indian community not only Punjabi’s try very cars to be against caste. So don’t think we’re not trying or anything. We try really hard.

I think my all reasonable estimates, he was a polymath, maybe not on the level of Kolmogorov or something but it's the fact that he died so young, had such immense influence, and worked in so many fields.

By the way, it's alleged by a famous professor(?) and amazon reviewer Michael Emmet Brady that Ramsey in no way "demolished" his theory and that this particular problem has drawn people away from respecting and appreciating Keynes immense work in philosophy of probability

here is the review: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2927587

"An Examination of the Fundamental Reasons Why Frank Ramsey Failed in His Reviews of J M Keynes's a Treatise on Probability"

I disagree with your statement as well, psychedelics have a variety of use cases and the entire experience is difficult to describe, for example take the following statements

"I like the wall breathing" "The wall is breathing"

it is difficult to qualify and categorize whether this is "Escapism" or "Facing reality" this statement and a variety of the subclass of total experiences of mushrooms and lsd at times is that often, it just doesn't make sense, but it can induce profound thought, at least we hope is profound =)

Much love.

Oh come now, one essay can't really detract from the general character of all his essays does it?

It seems everyday that history moves on, anyways this is a historic day and I applaud the principal's for making a difficult decision. I wish them all the best.

I've only used python for scripts and such and pandas for data-analysis at my last job.

short version: ADHD 7-8x less chance of graduating college with a degree, 10% of dropping out of high school, 30% of repeating a grade(8-12 or maybe k-12), E.F. deficits overpower High I.Q. very easily. As economy of time > economy of information.

It doesn't matter if people are abusing drugs, it matters whether it is immoral or poor for them or not, it depends on what drugs are being abused and if they're bad, since adderall is a general performance enhancer and humans see significant benefits then such activities should be considered permissable, people cannot be held back in their lives because their doctors disagreed on their behalf, people cannot be held to the tyranny of underqualified 'professionals'.

ie a demand for us to be excessively passive and make their be an asymmetry in favor of the aggressor, ie why girls like criminals now, while they just to like knights before, the good guys, anyways, what you advocate men to do would be cede the asymmetry in favor of aggressors/criminals, police & criminals (same group of people, if you've ever had those sorts of friends they often just decide to try to be a cop later to maintain a few things, anyways, we cannot seed any situation to these people.

anyways, my father's house was just broken into, a few other things happened, and we have enough cops, but stuff still isn't being taken care of, anyways, the most important part is the courage to contest

It's probably just a high energy workplace full of plenty of power moves and the resulting hit and miss that comes from that. As if sexual relations could be acted upon as if we had perfect knowledge!

Hell even if we did have perfect knowledge we would know that women find it attractive in itself if a guy will approach and based on the skill of that approach yea/nea or w/e happens, so even if we could read each-others minds there would still be the act of the effectiveness of your tactics and if you didn't play it right then things could still get awkward.

There's variance to life you know. In before anal-retentive attentiveness to how I used epistemic randomness.
