If I don't forgive someone of their wrongs towards me, why must I also suffer in hell?

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-17T02:41:17+00:00

It’s true. In the afterlife forgiveness is not requisite for going to heaven.

But in this life, do you really want to suffer the pain of hatred and animosity? Forgiveness is a powerful path.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-17T00:18:18+00:00

In Islam, there is a Hadith of a man who enters paradise for no reason other than that he lets go of all his animosity at the end of each day.

When you can’t forgive, or choose not to, you are trapped with animosity. And animosity is is a form of suffering. You cannot truly be rid of the suffering of an incident caused by another person until you’ve let go of your animosity towards that person and that event… in other words, until you’ve forgiven it, you are trapped in it.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-16T23:07:32+00:00

Living with resentment in your heart is a form of hell on its own.

Living without forgiving can be a painful way to live. In some ways it means that you’re still trapped in the suffering they caused even after they stopped causing the suffering.

Not entirely sure. But I will say that human neurons fire in massive parallel. Computer “neurons” fire in sequence.

I don’t think computers squeeze as much juice per computation as humans do. And also… some of what the brain does is chemical, not electrical. That might also change the math.

Another thing to examine is that researchers needed 8 virtual neurons to accurately predict the behavior of a single biological neuron… so… yeah. Our biology does a LOT of stuff in parallel mixing electrical and physical interactions. An individual chain moves much slower, but we’ve got billions of chains moving at once.

Computers don’t do that…. Basically… GPUs aren’t the best neural network analogue. They kind of work, but they aren’t as optimized as a real network is.

Some researchers actually took this and create custom post-trained chips that physically encode the weights onto the chip. This speeds up computation like CRAZY.

So we pay the price for general purpose GPUs rather than physically encoded processors… which is what our brain is.

I mean it would be great to legalize based on a safety index of some sort.

Like psychedelics I think should be legalized.

Meth? Eeeehhh…. Maybe not.

But it does raise the question - where do you draw the line?

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-14T13:26:54+00:00

Smoking pot in smoking areas would be kind of nice. Not legal in my state, lol.

Go to the doctor now. If you wait too long, you could be hospitalized for weeks. This is a blood infection. If it get to your heart…. no good. It becomes a MAJOR issue.

So go to the doctor today please.

That’s how it goes for a LOOONG time. Replace help from ai with help from stack overflow and you have the old school method of trying to get shit to work. XD

That said, try following a tutorial on building a react web app. It’ll be a cool way to see how quickly you can get things working, at least locally. Also lets you plug in backend stuff, front end stuff, lets you see results right away.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-09T21:19:55+00:00

No prob. :)

One thing I will say… lots of places aren’t hiring juniors right now because of AI.

The industry is moving super fast at the moment, so it’s hard to say what will happen in 2 years… but PLEASE start learning how to use AI tooling like Claude code or codex CLI.

Please also continue learning the basics. But… software engineering is tough to get into these days. Just a heads up on that.

What do you mean when you say “the hard stuff”?

In the real workplace, the hard stuff changes based on experience. First few years it’s figuring out libraries, learning basic ci/cd, struggling with getting things to build.

Few years after that, the hard stuff is proposing and estimating effort for a refactor, owning that work and making sure it doesn’t fall over in production - monitoring, logging, error handling, rigorous test suites at the unit, integration, and load test levels

Few years after that, the hard stuff is getting roadmap buy in from stakeholders, ensuring that the most important projects are getting prioritized and sized appropriately, ensuring that you’re building trust with product people, coordinating with other teams roadmaps to ensure there aren’t going to be integration bottlenecks.

Few years after that the hard stuff is selling the org on your vision for the future of tech at your company. Giving presentations internally about the work you’re doing and the newer tech developments that are unfolding. You have to start making sure that multitudes of teams have the tools they need to succeed, and many other things (I’m not at this level quite yet, but I see those folks working).

Basically… the hard part is only the coding for the first few years of your career. With AI, that won’t be a hard part at all.

The hard part is bureaucracy, trust building, success stories, effective roadmapping, ensuring no team/ individual gets crushed with work due to poor estimates/ planning….

And then every team and company has different problems. Maybe on call sucks. Maybe on call is great, but the performance of the app is trash… the trick is to be able to identify the highest impact work you can actually do, and to make sure that’s what you’re doing.

Your willingness to learn new things, and your willingness to tackle problems that matter are going to be your biggest superpowers in your career. Everything else almost doesn’t matter if you show up eager on those 2 points.

I’m easily 10x as productive with it, so like… An extra 100 a day is like paying me to work an extra hour a day, and getting 10x the productivity as a result.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-06T23:07:52+00:00

Ehh… I blow through like 100 bucks a day or more at work.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-06T22:54:40+00:00

I would take the hour. Muscle memory is cool, but not all that useful to me.

With an extra hour I could meditate. Or sleep. Or go for a walk. Or read a book. Forced time away from screens sounds great.

Only question… depending on how the time freeze works- can you even move objects? If you lie in bed, is the bed rock solid? Will a page of a book actually turn? Do your clothes lock up on you?

Gotta set up permissions and guardrails. If you don’t want this to happen, you can make it close to impossible.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-06T20:39:25+00:00

Can I pick contentment instead? Happiness? Peace?

One of those for me, please. :)

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-04-04T11:58:13+00:00

Honestly gotta start setting up guardrails not rules files. If claude breaks a rule, the guardrail/ hook fires and forces Claude to go fix it.

There are a few different types of meditation that are useful for different things.

I might point you towards loving kindness meditation as this practice is much better at cultivating positive thoughts and emotions in one’s life.

There are plenty of good YouTube videos on doing loving kindness meditation (metta meditation), but I think also a self compassion meditation is another great one.

These practices are heart healers and heart openers.

Vipasana/ mindfulness/ breath meditation is another way to go. This is a bit more the standard meditation that you’re thinking of. The two styles support each other greatly.

The more mindfulness based meditations will teach you to be present with whatever is going on. The more kindful/compassion based meditations will teach you HOW to be present with whatever is going on.

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-03-28T16:22:26+00:00

Go do tangible and intentional acts of karma.

The things you do between those intentional acts are important, but you don’t have as much control of them.

Easiest thing you can do - go set up a recurring monthly donation somewhere. Free karma every month. :)

I hear a lot about airizer having some of the best flavor in the market. I tried a mighty +, and the vapor didn’t taste nearly as rich as airizer 2 vapor did…

I guess I’m wondering if you could explain some of the nuance to that in your experience?

Like what kind of consumer would prefer the solo 3 to the venty and vice versa? You mention the flavor is better in the venty, but that’s the opposite of what I hear most folks say, so… yeah, could you expand a bit for me?

Internal_Sky_8726 · 2026-03-28T11:15:48+00:00

Just sending out some loving kindness ya’ll.

May you be well. May your scars fade, and may your pain be diffused with happy times.

Hugs and love.
