Wife told me these wouldn’t fit. Little did she know I had trained for this moment for years.

Me: entering Japanese cat café. employee stops me immediately. Employee: One rule. Me: Okay. Employee: Orange cat bites people from France. Me: I’m not French. Employee: Good. I sit down, cats everywhere, peaceful, adorable, therapeutic. then gigantic orange cat jumps onto table, built like retired wrestler. Cat staring at me aggressively. Employee watching nervously from distance. Me: I thought he only hated French people. Employee: He improvises. cat slowly pushes my drink off table while maintaining eye contact. Me: THIS IS TARGETED. small child nearby points at cat. Child: That one evil. Employee: No no, He just passionate. cat suddenly climbs onto my lap, starts purring violently. Me: …wait he likes me? Employee shocked. Employee: Impossible. another worker comes over, then another, entire staff now observing me like chosen prophet. Manager arrives. Manager: He has never trusted customer before. Me: What does that mean. Manager bows slightly. Manager: You must take him. Me: TAKE HIM WHERE. orange cat already asleep on me. Employee quietly bringing adoption papers. Me: I CAME HERE FOR COFFEE.

this is true and part of why ADHD is so tiring. if you dont take advantage of your 'flow' to the utmost you wont get anything done after. so you have to overexert yourself because you dont know when the brief clarity will end. im tired.

the first rule of ADHD is Never Sit Down and Don’t Take A Break. breaks are traps. momentum is your friend. you will get bored long before you get tired and you will conflate the two and it is ur brain’s favorite lie! do it in one sweep!

You can now run a full Linux operating system inside a 6mb PDF. Someone embedded a RISC-V emulator inside a standard document. You don't need a virtual machine, just a PDF reader. → Runs interactively inside the file. → Powered by a tiny RISC-V emulator. → The entire OS fits in just 6MB.

Farmer pays $5–$8 per cow per month. A New Zealand company puts a solar-powered smart collar on cows. It tracks location 24/7, health, temperature, chewing activity, breeding. Farmer just opens a simple app and draws a line on the map. That line becomes the fence. As cows

Simplification is a literal neural signature of mastery, not a communication preference. Your prefrontal cortex can hold about 4 items in working memory at any given moment. That's the biological ceiling. Doesn't matter how smart you are. The constraint is fixed. What changes with expertise is compression. Your brain learns to "chunk" multiple pieces of information into single units. A chess grandmaster doesn't see 32 pieces on a board. They see 5-6 familiar patterns. A senior engineer doesn't see 40 variables in a system. They see 3 forces interacting. The prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia run a gating system that decides what gets into working memory and what gets filtered out. Dopamine modulates those gates. When someone builds deep expertise in a domain, their basal ganglia learns which information to compress and which to discard, freeing up slots for higher-order reasoning. The person who can explain something simply has built enough mental chunks that the complex version collapses into a small number of organized patterns. The person who overcomplicates things is often still holding each variable separately, maxing out their working memory, and spilling the cognitive overflow into their explanation. This is why Feynman could explain quantum mechanics to freshmen. His compression ratio was so high that concepts taking 4 working memory slots for a grad student took 1 slot for him. The remaining 3 slots were free for analogy, storytelling, and reading the room. Simplicity is what happens when your brain has run enough reps to compress the pattern. Complexity is what happens when it hasn't.

You can tell someone’s smart by how well they simplify things, not complicate them.

Huge shout to my friend from an undergraduate philosophy program who started working out every single day, not for health benefits or to become conventionally attractive or whatever, but because -- and this is a direct quote -- he was concerned that otherwise he might "become lost in the world of signs and forget the things they signify". I have thought about this every single time that I've worked out since.
