Mind: a philosophy.

  • AI Training Data

    It’s frustrating to read how AI tools are SURPRISINGLY going off the rails and spewing horrible shit, especially when their core training material are the things that humans write, say and do. They learn if from us. Ever meet – ( <– All hyphens in this post are artisanal, organically sourced punctuation ) or be…

  • Understanding the Problem

    Ah the joy of solving problems. Not puzzles, mind you, problems. Puzzles are a different animal. They are created for entertainment, and have a solution. Puzzles usually rely on a set of parameters that a participant needs to understand in order to find that solution, and often there’s a trick or unclear parameter that is…

  • First day of 2025

    Well, this is it. This is what we’ve been waiting for it. All of human history has come to this point. It’s 2025. Sure, it is another arbitrary day to start everything all over again. But this way we make something new, fresh, exciting! I started this post over a month ago, with the idea…

  • The Cat in the Mask

  • Road Trip: August 2024

    When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one, two at the most, people to adjust their physical bonds to the locality in which they reside, and venture into the expanded realm of existence that is evident and visible around them. In these times, it is essential for one people to say…

  • One show, two show, all the shows go go go

    How do you go to so many shows? I get asked that not infrequently. And in some ways, i get it. Most people have an artist or two that they want to see, they get tickets, and they go. They know what they are going for, they pay for it, and they go for a…

  • To belong

    Maybe we are hard wired to want to belong. To be in a group. I imagine the comfort early humans would feel when being accepted into a group of others, no longer terrified and alone, wandering as prey from another. There must have been a mental schism in the evolving primates who walked, possibly for…

  • My Perspective

    My perspective is how I see the world. Not everyone will agree with me. I expect that. If everyone was just like me, that would be a dull boring world. No, I take that back. I don’t think it would be a dull boring world. I think it would be an awesome world and we…

  • When I get mad

    I don’t get mad a lot. It rarely solves anything, and makes me feel miserable while the cause of my anger doesn’t seem to be impacted in the least. That doesn’t seem fair. I try to solve and/or eliminate things that push me toward being mad, which seems to be a better channel for that…

  • Find Me Here

    Since you’re here, you already know one place to find me in case the bird joint collapses. I won’t delete my account, but who knows what’s going to happen over there. Somehow, almost 3000 people still follow me for some reason, and I follow 2500 or so. I will miss everyone if things don’t work…

  • Good run of shows

    I like live music, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t get to all of them. It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon of sprints. There were so many shows that I missed. Thursday 9-29 – Shady Oaks Friday 9-30 – The Luka State – Micky James – Cousin Simple Saturday 10-1 –…
