Reminds me of business ideas that are not instantly obvious vs a sexy "The Team!" page.

I see an office one time with oddly long hallways 3 times the height and width one is used to. It had a marble floor that echoed loudly and ended in a Kremlin sized door with a single employee behind it. When I asked why it was that way they explained it was to force the visitor/coworker to repeatedly reconsider if his thing was really worth disruping that person with. To the question if that realy worked the answer was a description of the previous office where coworkers would fly in and out out of convenience. They would stick their head around the corner for 5 word sentences. Apparently productivity went though the roof in the new building.

I created a formula that i havent used since i was 13 but worked amazingly well. (Talk about hard to believe stuff eh?)

The trick was to use sleepyness as a resource.(even more hard to believe!)

You simply focus as hard as you can on the thing you wanted to learn/study/memorize. You dont actually focus on the work but you focus in general. As if pointing the eyes at the self. Make large eyes, keep some muscle tense like your jaw. Breath heavily. The idea is to wear yourself out in 20-30 min. Then go to bed and sleep 20-30 min. And repeat!

I dont know how it works but information is proccesed during the powernap.

After doing some 20-30 cycles of this you are starting to mis out on actual sleep and some trance like state with laser like focus activates. It seems the body gets used to using up all the powernap energy as fast as possible.

The blob of memories becomes self referential by lack of other activities.

The partially parsed modules are organized further when you finnish of with 8 hours of proper sleep.

I think the formula skips the 30 min you normally need to get into something and it consumes just the good part of the 3-4 hours that one can normally focus during a day.

What happens after 10 years? Or is 10% per year some investment standard?

This ferengi formula goes way over my head. Here we just have government sponsored trains that take people places and costs what it costs. It all runs on wind. After doing the very bussy part of the trip you get to see giant trains with 1 or 2 passengers at 30 min interval. I think cheap parking for cleaning and maintanace alone makes it worth rolling them to barely habited areas.

The trade of is worth some thought. It takes a lot of effort to cater to intuition. If we put some of that effort into giving the user acces to the tools it should make a better result in the long run. The simple version of how a combustion engine works is inspiring and helps us aperciate the bus.

It might be a bit to deep an argument but where do you think intuition comes from? If we design peceaved reality after existing intuition you get a giant feedback loop that calls for ever more unrealistic representations.

Mabe an analogy can be had with electronics being mostly paralel processes while we can barely figure out how to implement it in higher languages. Our intuition likes the 1 thing at a time approach.

If you look at the ways these substances are transported today it seems prety obvious people would find a way shortly after first introduction. Even if death is more likely than succes people will do it. You can also spend any amount of money trying to stop the drug trade without accomplishing it.

iow the real story is probably weirder than we can imagine.

To me the fun puzzle is to lift part of the water above the source without moving parts. One can easily do that with a mech. pump but how to make it solidstate?

My hypothesis is that partying hard might also negatively influence school results.

It actually has <comments>

You can gaze over (recent) publications from thousands of sources in about the same time it takes to look at a single website.

I role my own aggregator, its 1000 years ahead of the rest. Im only half kidding.

Ill share my most recent idea: sort news items by the amount of time between its pubdate and the previous pubdate in that feed. (Discard items older than x where x is since last time you read the results, a fixed amount of time or more if the number of "winning" results is insufficient.)

The idea is simple. That guy who never says anything. When he opens his mouth it should be interesting to hear what comes out.

He will be delighted to have 1 reader. A much more enjoyable position than listening to some screaming news anchor or other attention whore.

Just use try{} and keep the secret.

Interesting stuff but night owls could also go to bed early, drink a bit less etc

I mean, bioritm it isnt the only datapoint.

More exclusive moderation is required to have constructve conversations. With constructive i mean ones that construct things. HN might not be the place. (Its not for me to decide.)

Same thing is it not? Wireless charging would be nice, or the trollybus tech.

Quality authors afiliated to prominent prestigious publishers printed on the finest cloths imaginable. Not only were their words and the patterns extraordinarily beautiful, but in addition, this material had the amazing property that it was to be invisible to anyone who was incompetent or stupid.

Or even more generic: this is every advertisement platform's business model. They just perfected it.

Who knows, if it gets any worse, we might finally be convinced to pay for our things.

Sounds fantastic.

There is a joke inthere about economics but i cant think of it right now

I was pondering flow charts as a superior way to visualize a programs uhh flow (compared to text)

Then it struck me that humans have amazing spatial memory. The hypothesis is this: A 3d representation (if done right) should make familiarizing the human with some code a process of minutes rather than hours or days.

There is also the school of thougt where these agencies were created specifically to rule countries with the national government no more than a cover story.

The influence of one over the other and vis versa seems convincing.

I could tell you more but then I would have to kill you.

Maybe we did know but were made to forget.

It wil turn into a kind of pre-crime.

Thats not what we want. The memory should be recalled from external brainz. I just want to be a professor and a doctor of everything and clearly remember every paper written about everything complete with animated visuals and indexing.

But it was! It was excluding you! Your lack of performance made everyone else look more productive.

I thougt it funny to spend a huge realestate tax increase on building aditional houses. Then do the same with food and utilities. Like government tossing the hot potato into the air and catching it again.

Lets hope peeps are concious not just intelligent.

Use a blog-this bookmarklet. It inserts the highlighted text into a fresh post with the page title linked to the page.

I've been blogging for wel over a decade for the audience of 1. He is perfectly in tune with the author and immensely enjoys everything I post. Sometimes the audience grows by 100% for a short while but after clicking around the categories and the insane amount of hierachic tags he never visits more than 5 citations.

It is highly amusing when he suggests to make the website even better. As if that is possible.

When google droped it I explained that I make the website and they may index it or chose not to. Their ideas how to improve the site and their attempt to force me was like they live on a different planet. They use to do organic ranking? I thought it facinating how they thought they could do that without accounting for my interests.

Point being: you want one of these websites just to have people (consumers) hate on it.

Do try to keep the personal notes as if addessing an audience. When you read those 10 years from now you say out loud: woah this guy is clearly a genius. By that time your 20k "bookmarks" (from now on called blog posts) will have a search engine allowing you to swiftly deeplink buddies into your mind so that they can have conversations under it that become similar treasures the decade after that.

No link to my blog here :)

Dumb question:

How make a free high impact journal?

Ah, so we simply create a protocol that transparantly breaks down the peer review process into a rainbow of gradients thereby allowing the desired process of review by what you call quality reseachers. Such protocol could allow a review-for-free mechanism that could be time consuming and it could build a fund for the review process. Arguably the review process needs not to be finished at any time. It is probably big fun to revisit the process in the licht of later findings. Lastly but not least the protocol could help establish a name for reviewing scientists who just happen to do a lot of reading. A (large) bit like github does for programmers.
