Why do you think that aggression is so tightly associated with frustration? This does not seem like an adaptive response, despite being widely cross-cultural.

People studying brains: "We found no correlation between number of neurons and IQ."*

People talking about AI: "If we just add more nodes to our deep neural network we are surely going to create a super-mind!"

Okay, I finished reading the Majjhima Nikāya this morning. That means I'm approximately half way done with the Pali Canon of #Buddhism I started in October. Next up is the Samyutta Nikāya, which academics say is the oldest layer in the collection.

Why can they not just send one e-mail? This is absurd with 72 messages in the same minute.

If you're arguing with someone then you're trying to convince them of something. If you're trying to convince them of something, then you're deferring to their judgement. If you don't have a reason to defer to their judgement, then this is just a form of approval-seeking and you're wasting your time.

Don't worry about the results. Just do what you can do.

FUCK #PulseAudio. I just replaced it with #PipeWire which worked immediately. Absolutely done with PA and it's fucking insane bugs and weird weird weird shit forever. Didn't even need to have to do anything with PipeWire. It just worked out of the box. Magic. Hope it stays this way. Cross your fingers. Fuck I miss ALSA days. That shit was easy.

Me: Why did you switch?

user: We just liked the way they looked.

TICKET Closed: switched printers back

Is it okay to feel the way I do? Please give me permission to feel how I feel. 😆

(This post is ironic. I think a lot of us implicitly think like this sometimes.)

TIL that you can redirect clear(1)'s standard output to a file and the use cat on the file to clear the screen.

$ clear > foo
$ cat foo
