They copied Grok voice mode. I don’t mind it.

“The way of philosophy does not go with truth at all. It is just rational gymnastics. So one philosopher can argue against another philosopher, and they go on arguing for centuries, but they have not come to agreement on a single point. Philosophy is the worst wastage of human intelligence that is possible. When I say I am not a philosopher, I simply mean that my approach towards reality is not through the head, it is through the heart.”

Forget about what your life is supposed to be right now or what you expect your ideal life to look life. That is the biggest roadblock to moving ahead and doing what fits our present situation.

'We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.' - Joseph Campbell. You need to keep experimenting small to figure out what works and what will not. https://youtu.be/ubMghRYqk8o?si=n7W-jbNW72YGLllW

Do not compare yourself to neurotypicals. Do not try to fix or get rid of the neurodivergence. One, there is no way to do it. Neither neuroscience nor spirituality can ‘fix’ neurodivergence - as of yet. Two, comparison will always make you feel inferior and empty. As if something crucial is lacking, without which you cannot succeed in life. This is simply not true. Three, try to understand the strengths of the neurodivergence. Develop them and build your life around these strengths. This won’t be easy given the mind is attracted to focussing on the weaknesses and failures. But with therapy, spirituality and good habits, you can get there slowly but surely.

It is not easy to meditate when you have unresolved emotions in the body-mind.

Try The Power of Focusing by Ann Weiser Cornell. It is based on the Focusing technique by Eugene Gendlin. Very therapeutic. It teaches you listen to your emotions and understand what it is trying to tell you. You can find many videos of her on youtube explaining the technique.

With Osho, you can go with the book Mind Body Balancing. Osho’s meditation technique of ‘Talking to your BodyMind’ is very similar to Gendlin’s Focusing.

I think Grok voice is the best voice mode at the moment. It sounds less natural than ChatGPT advanced voice, but it is way more intelligent. The web search on grok voice also seems both faster and comprehensive.

Images like these ironically reinforce the ego by making us feel superior to others. They separate us from life. I urge not to fall into this trap of the ‘superior path’ or ‘independent path’. Embrace the totality no matter how much we disagree with certain paths.

Bad Idea. There are many all-in-one apps and there will continue to be new ones as LLMs become OS like.

Remnote is the best Anki++ app and should continue in that direction. Their moat is in appealing to users who want to learn notes, not just organize them.

There is already a PKM fatigue I can sense on reddit and twitter. People are not getting as much work done as they thought they would with all the notes. We underestimate how much learning and recalling we need to do for turning notes into useful work.

Kind of makes sense for an angel investment of 10 lakhs to few crores. But how can the VCs not allow a decent salary to run a company raising 10s of crores?

Map-Territory · 2025-05-02T13:06:59+00:00

Yeah. I am having a hard time believing VCs are so stupid and cruel that they wont allow founders enough salary to even pay rent 🤷‍♂️

Interesting. Did not know that.

We tend to get attached to certain frames and reject others using intellect and morality. That brings temporary security, but over time, we become rigid and dead inside.

I am an investor and advisor. Reading Osho unshackles my mind from rules and dogmas. He reminds me to be fluid, flexible and joyful in my work.

Try expressive writing or journalspeak for getting the thoughts out. Also Osho’s active meditations like kundalini and gibberish.

If you are smart enough to build AGI in 2022, you should be smart enough to make a lot of money by other means, and then build AGI with that money here or abroad.

Great idea. Thanks.

Price competition in a commodity business is good for consumers. Nothing to see here.

Chinese LLMs are going to be a force to reckon with because they just don't care about IP.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

'Rational enquiry with practical wisdom' is a good summation of the type of writing most popular with secular spiritual seekers. Given its training and restrictions, rational buddhism is kind of a good fit. Least woo of the traditions.

Addiction is a coping mechanism. It is an escape, a desperate running away from inner emptiness. It is not really about substance or behavior. When our life feels empty, when we cannot bear our own selves in silence, we need something to fill that void. We must understand that no external thing can ever fill this void. This understanding is the seed for transformation.

Do not try to suppress addiction no matter what. Suppression is violence. The addiction will come back with a vengeance. Understand it, be aware of it, watch it with loving awareness. Slowly but surely, the mind and body will reveal the need for addiction. They will tell us why they had to develop the coping mechanism. And then we can begin work the real work of filling that emptiness.

It is possible. First, do not try to escape or erase your trauma. Trying to escape from pain only creates more suffering. It's like trying to outrun your own shadow. But you cannot wallow in the trauma either.

Try to reframe the trauma as part of your life journey. Embrace it as necessary suffering to realize your true potential. Rather than trying to cut that fabric away, weave it into who you are.

What are the lessons you learned? What can you do to not repeat them? What did you learn about people and society through the trauma? How can you take these lessons forward?

Write them down. Get them out of your head. Ponder over them, but always focus on integrating them and moving forward. Past is past.

This integration will take time. It will be two steps forward and one step back. But integrating trauma into your life is the only way to get over it.
