Dissolve away feels of tension and unease within your body with your conscious awareness.
Focus your consciousness on various parts of your body from within.
Chase down feelings of ickiness and tightness with your mind.
Every second of every minute of every hour of every day.

The Craftsman is not focused on profit first and foremost.
The Craftsman is not about showing off.
The Craftsman is not about feeling important.
The Craftsman is not about hustling or sales.
...
The Craftsman wants nothing more than to master his or her craft.
It's magnetic.
The feeling of mastery is what you feel yourself inching towards as you're deep into flowstate, and everything just clicks.
It's just you and the process. Your ego dissolves and you're crafting something from nothing.

Was out with a bunch of old friends tonight. One of them recently got a new job as a data scientist at a large clothing manufacturer company. I asked him how his new team was.
The first thing that he spoke about was how there was a black person, a gay person, a few females, a "they/them" pronoun person, and a few other diverse people on the team. (He's a half Asian, half Irish straight male for context.)
I look at him and ask, "wait, who cares about skin color or genitals or any of that other stuff? I wanna know about their technically competency! What about their interests? What about their personalities? Why so much focus on these factors for a job? Are skin color and genitals that important?"
It took him a minute to recollect himself and he kinda "snapped back to reality" in a way. He and the rest of the group calmly explained to me that at nearly all large corporations these days, those are the things that matter.
Now, not all companies. He came from a very large engineering heavy company that builds planes and rocket engines, where merit still actually matters more than skin color or genitals or pronouns. But in general the trend is to assume those are the things that matter first and foremost.
They explained that these days the corporate cultures are all about identity politics, because that's actually what companies have to care about to stay competitive and maximize profits.
It makes me shake my head in bewilderment.
The fact that that's what's been drilled into people's heads to bring up first when discussing team dynamics sickens me.
It's trying to swing the pendulum the other way and give power to all those "disenfranchised" groups... Instead of trying to transcend these silly identity politics.
It took the group a moment to realize that as someone who's never been in a corporation, I didn't understand the modern social pressure for stuff like that to matter.
It's good that people like me have no exposure to that brainwashing, it reminds them that there's a view of that as silly.
...
Then we changed the topic and went to play beer pong because we're all friends and work discussions don't matter that much.
...
But it was just an interesting moment for me that I felt the need to share.
I'm so glad I'm self employed and think for myself instead of getting swept up in the modern insanity of what's supposed to be important.
Nobody got heated though, it was more just a calm interesting discussion where we all shared our views over drinks and delicious wings.
That's how these things should go.

It's so important to set up the right environment for whatever you're doing.
Put on some jazz while cooking.
Deep synthwave music for coding.
Set up proper lighting when you're writing.
Wall color, clothing style, lighting, music, mood.
Be intentional about your environment.

Anyone notice how quickly the convo shifted from Afghanistan to abortion in a mere week?
Are you not suspicious?!
Did you immediately jump on the opportunity to share your precious opinion on a new narrative, swept up by gale force winds?
Did you suspect the topic was crafted?
I feel like there are intentional shifts in the narrative people are blind to.
People get so wrapped up in how they feel about something, they forget to stop and ask who is deciding on the topic to discuss... And why.
Afghanistan, abortion, horse dewormers. All rapid shifts in the narrative which occured in like a mere week.
People dedicating their sacred mental energy to discussing topics that others are crafting.
Noticing all these mind viruses trying to infect me.
My guard is up.
Philosophical immune system kicking in.
Get outta my head, begone ye demons!

Cities should be walkable.
Cities should have almost no cars by removing all parking spots and making roads into walkable paths.
Cities should have CLEAN and widespread public transportation.
Cities should power wash buildings often.
Cities should have greenery with many parks.
Cities should have a LOT of waterways spread throughout.
Cities should vote on each issue separately, instead of voting on corrupt politicians.
Cities should have lounges, shopping, farmers markets.
Cities should have no slums.
Cities should have cobblestone streets for aesthetics and for slower walking.
Cities should have quaint looking domiciles instead of giant cold soulless steel towers.
Cities should have wide streets.
Cities should have beauty and artwork and public outdoor performances, not discriminatory vax passes and graffiti and dusty gross buildings/trains.
Cities should be built for humans.

Making a thread of modern city planning posts:
Twitter post I saw: "It's also how suspiciously consistent the conception of calculus as the be-all-and-end-all of mathematics is with Eurocentrism and white supremacy"
Fuck them and their racial bullshit infecting math.
I want to violently attack people who think it's okay to bring their retarded racial identity politics into math like calculus.
It's fucking calculus. Shit for nerds.
If you can't leave that alone with your desperate attempt to make the world in your political image, then you have no place in the world of tomorrow.
I am getting more and more convinced I need to gain more power if only to shut these people down.
I'm going to rise and I'll share my journey here on telegram.

The beauty of the flow grows.
But it was always there.
The depths of mastery are obvious,
When your soul is on fire in the moment.
The beauty of your uniqueness shines,
For the nasty people want you to conform.
The world wants you to care about politics,
But you know self-sufficiency is key.
The media triggers your hindbrain,
But your forebrain kicks in.
You look for the leaders of tomorrow,
And realize they were in front of you all along.
They threaten your livelihood with the jab,
You calmly stare at them in the face.
Your political leaders are lacking,
So you look within.
We rise together, brothers.

When my family and friends ask why I didn't get vaccinated, I'm slow to answer.
They expect a zealot.
I'm waiting to see how they react to their own question.
I play the game of power.
They need my answer more than I need their question.

Lotsa people know I got a place in NYC.
I get a lot of messages on helping to spread the message of resistance amongst the city.
Like this one: https://twitter.com/AscensionHelp/status/1435156428629561355?s=19
I'm fully supportive.
I'll be leaving the city at the end of this year to head to the suburbs and focus on my own life and my own family,
But until then I'm your guy in the city.
I will always rebel against totalitarianism.
Some of my high school and family friends are on this telegram, and while they are not necessarily familiar with my more rebellious sides, those who found me from SolBrah or Twitter know that I'll be part of the new leaders of the world.
There are deep trends of fate attempting to shape the narratives of tomorrow, and they're looking for dissidents like us.
But I'm smarter than them. I know Sun Tzu in The Art of War says never underestimate your enemy, but I'm here to play their little games.
Let's get this show started, shall we?

And today I'll discuss some medical AI things from my work.
We are taking heart rate signals from the patient and trying to predict how much blood the heart is pumping.
We are using deep learning techniques called "Inception" and "Resnet".
They basically look at the entire signal (think of a sinusoidal line on an X-Y graph) and filtering that signal.
The neurons learn which filters, and then which filters of filters, and then which filters of filters of filters, will best predict the patients blood flow.
We have 30 or so GPU servers running on Amazon cloud ($1/hour/server) trying out millions of combinations of filters.
We report them in a https://neptune.ai dashboard and check which neural network gave us the highest accuracy.
Our clients will deploy this at hospitals as a screening tool and determine who needs to get an echocardiogram.
That's a small glimpse into my medical AI work!

To me, the best feeling is flowstate.
It's when you get so lost in something for a few hours that you lose track of time.
You've all experienced it while playing video games.
I try to get into flowstate with my work. It feels like you're inching closer to an egoless state where it's just you and your work, no boundaries.
The thoughts are flying and you're in the zone.
It's a beautiful feeling and something that makes you hate interruptions and pointless meetings.
Success, to me, is about getting in the zone, getting into flowstate, as often as possible.
