Oops. That reminds me, I was supposed to send more pictures… O:-)

Photos from the May Minicamp are up on Facebook :) Thanks to everyone for the amazing time, and new friendships :D
Slight Tangent: One thing I’ve found that helps me in my relationships, is when I see a friend of mine, I mentally recall all the feelings of happiness and shared bonds and good times with that person, and try and put that into my face and smile, and send that at them.
I’ve also tried to explicitly compliment people (before, I had a bad habit of thinking positive things, but never actually sharing it with the people who I was thinking about!)
I can help for almost anything computer security related, also public speaking, running workshops, teaching and training.
Glad to hear it’s helping!
Similar to Cord, when I notice an action or thought that brings me closer to my goals, I smile. Before, I would usually groan or feel bad for realizing that I had not taken an action, which I now realize was creating the opposite impact than what I wanted!
Just booked plane tickets—I will be there for the May one! :)
I’d love to know this—heck, I’d teach a diet course if anyone is interested (those at the last NYC mega-meetup listened to an hour lecture/qa of my nutritional philosophies :)
What would be the best place to share photos from my presentation?
I have it in roman characters. Kanji would be more pleasing, but harder to have created.
The Megameetup is Feb 4/5th
This concept is fantastic—I’m going to publicize it to some friends.
RSVP (Rapid serial visual presentation) software has been around for a long time. What makes yours better? Color bars changing as you get closer to the end of a sentence/paragraph, and an extra delay at the end of a sentence/paragraph seem to be the most useful extensions.
I can vouch for being able to read much faster, at the cost of comprehension using RSVP tech.
I also invoke Crockers rules—and appreciate any and all feedback others wish to give me :)
2000 IU is not very much. I suggest starting at 1000 iu per 25 pounds of body weight for light skinned individuals, and then testing and adjusting accordingly. (say, 1000 iu for every 10 ng/ml you want to increase)
grin that was fun, and incidentally how I first found out about you (Eliezer). I don’t remember actually formally writing said document though, so much as just reasoning out the pro/cons of various approaches.
I’m glad it worked out though! :)
The taste test seems more reliable than smell. I sidestepped the issue and take liquid fish oil instead.
If you do take oil in capsule form, I suggest biting one open every once in a while to check for rancidity. Also, store them in the fridge.
Also, rice is fairly benign. In my mind, the only issue with white rice is that it crowds out more useful sources of calories, and just provides empty carbohydrates.
Ok, Photos from 2012 Rationality Minicamp, the 2011 and 2012 NYC meetups, and a random Cambridge meetup are here—Photos They should be up for at least a few months, at which point I’ll probably pull them down to save me space.
