Got a mechanical keyboard today, let’s see if it has any positive or negative effect on my writing

Right now it’s quite fun to write with it.. feels like a real jaunt of a writing experience

Will it make me more excited to do long form writing?

I need to learn to press shift with my left hand when typing a question mark. My current habit is to always press shift with my right hand even if the character I need to type is also on my right hand, and I think this is a significant slow down

How much thock? Pretty good thock…

It seems like the inability of any individual to create make unilateral, significant policy change within one’s lifetime is a source of resilience

No matter how much that may frustrate us liberals and progressives who are pushing for significant change as quickly as possible

Going to bring in a couple reminders of note ideas

I got this idea from Kemal Kilicdaroglu during his campaign earlier this year

I think the videos he took in his modest house might have been what inspired this

Maybe disassemble Air Force One and a lot of the pageantry around their position so that it becomes less of a prestige related role

This type of thing may reduce those running based solely on ego

Though possible it won’t make a significant difference here

More like a servant of the people role, like a Prime Minister

If you have a lot of money, should you simply guarantee basic Human Rights for your children in lieu of a proper government doing so?

Housing, healthcare, food, other basics…

Most public places are places where white folks are comfortable

This was initially a thought that came from thinking about what we need to do to build public places that are truly inclusive

Many Third places are more accessible for the White American

Libraries may be an exception to this

If you could hibernate indefinitely, what year would you want to wake up ?

Math people seem to be in this significantly

But of course, it’s rampant in philosophy

The English language seems to slowly be dropping articles

possible this is my bias because a lot of Turkish people drop articles

it seems like this is a possible efficiency gain

read this with two friends redacted

using redacted to indicate places where I can come back and put names in if the person is ok with it

Would a Toki Pona sign language be easy to learn ?

Are tangled cords like shuffled cards ?

How are Ella Fitzgerald vocal recordings so high quality ?

Bringing in more note ideas

Is deductive logic just a subset of inductive logic where the probabilities are always 0 or 100% ?

Can you build a heat pump to space ?
