omega same lol. i have watched a lot of youtubes that are basically "how it's made" of magic because I try to like, explain the unexplainable because whimsy is a fool's errand, but when I actually see it done it's still amazing. "it's just card counting" ya but dude counted them so impressively!!

I don't think such eccentric personalities fare well as CEOs in tech companies, especially in personal computing and devices. People want trustworthy experts not a business vaudeville show

realtalk i could probably stand to do less thinking about my thoughts and more experiencing them

i was really lucky in my life to come into contact with a competent shrink who taught me the difference between aimless, self-destructive rumination and structured, constructive introspection. the latter is absolutely a skill that has to be learned and practiced (at least for people like me).
