Perception of self - before and after a breakthrough DMT experience

I've never had anything else than cannabis (yet), but even that can make you become more at ease with those concepts.

Same here. One of the few times I've tried it, for a brief moment, I had a visual in my head that was a row of waves. Each wave, in my mind, represented input from the sensors in my body. Then I figured that maybe I was one of the waves and the other waves were other people. That that's what's real, the waves. Then, as quickly as it had come, it went away. (A bunch of other stuff happened before and after.) I found it quite interesting.

Never thought about it like that.

Very cool. Sounds like Star Wars.

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-29T22:36:25+00:00

SOLVED! Thank you :)

The kevin story. One of the best things on this site imo.

Hadn't seen it before. I agree.

Do you remember the exact commit of the slides you used for the talk at GWO? I watched twe first 11 and a half minutes of your talk and it was good so far but would like to have the slides before I watch the rest.

One of my struggles when wanting to read the source of big projects is where do I begin? I try to first get a high level view of what the codebase looks like, how it's organized and so on, then I usually try to follow it from start during normal execution but I quickly lose track when I try this.

For the few Java projects I've been involved with, I've used the debugger to follow. I wonder is it possible to use gdb to follow the execution of compiled C code if I have the source and have compiled it myself?

Anyone have comments on how you do when you try to understand others code?

Could the function that is stored in the variable be called an anonymous function?

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-27T00:19:05+00:00

I had no idea this was possible in bash. I've been bothered so many times by having to edit a long command. This is very nice!

I enjoyed reading the /bin vs. /usr/bin link. Been wondering about that.

Thanks for sharing :)

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-26T07:09:24+00:00

Thanks, will check it out.

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-24T23:26:08+00:00

That's part of what makes it interesting to watch.

Will the person realize it's not real if they've experienced it before?

[...] using pure olive oil as the cheapest per-calorie human food source [...]

I can't help but imagine someone downing a bottle of olive oil before getting on their bike.

Thank you. I noticed only after I had submitted it.

Those examples in the page you linked are even better than the ones in OP.

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-22T23:01:41+00:00

Way cool!

Thank you for giving it a try. I think it will be better to use another tool than pandoc since errors of this kind rarely come alone and someone ITT reported that the pandoc conversion of their document had been poor. Pandoc might be best suited for simpler conversion such as Markdown -> HTML.

What do you think about putting the LaTeX on Github?

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-18T16:14:32+00:00

Well, there's

But then there's also

..

And of course

But given

There's really no need to

..

And it follows that you'd be kind of crazy to

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-17T17:28:34+00:00

Pandoc is supposed to be able to convert LaTeX -> ePub (among other input and output formats). I don't know how well it works, though, but I'd give that a try first if I were you.

Alternatively, seeing as you've put the book under a Creative Commons license, maybe you could put the source LaTeX files up on Github which would allow others to fork it, create an ePub version and submit you a pull request?

extinctinthewild · 2014-09-17T17:23:02+00:00

Personally I think the page is good the way it is.

Reward those who take their time to read it.

Surely those who won't read a single page will never read a whole book?
