Changing my operating system

Next week I'll post a succinct article about switching to OpenBSD, and I'll title it, "Long interview about life and travel."

:-)

So you're co-launching a sect and become a sex-guru? ;)

No srsly, I've found that many people (not only young women) could need some help to get more self-esteem, curiosity (many are, but they think they're not allowed to be), orientation, focus, can-do mentality, so your business could be helpful.

Indirectly I do something similar. I give seminars (as a side business) on business apparel and experienced that the technical stuff (e.g., colour choice or sleeve length) is just a part, attitude is equally (or even more) important. And people (both men and women) often need someone (me in this case) who tells them that they're not that bad, that there are (mostly unwritten or not commonly known) rules out there that can be understood. That a lot of confusion can be reduced often with simple methods (i.e., complex things made simple and applicable).

My background in social simulation certainly helps to understand social dynamics and make those rules and how-to procedures minimal and explicit. E.g., parts of my approach are directly transfered from the theory of situated agents, where one is embedded within a (social) context, occupies a (social) position, has goals, which lead to the required actions. Shorter:

f(context, position, goals) -> actions.

In the case of my seminars, the actions are mostly clothing-related (e.g., dress like co-workers or dress like seniors?). But it's easily extendable.

Sorry, you didn't ask for this, I wrote it anyway. :)

"If I say these two sentences. It would let them tell the relatives back in India that their daughter had a proper Muslim wedding. Means nothing to me, it means everything to them. So here we go."

Hope that one works out OK.
