BartholomewJS ​Wow, you are so precisely on time. Alan W ​I have oodles of topics Alan W ​How does Xah do word processing? Alan W ​How do schedules, clocks, etc. change the way you think? Alan W ​What makes a "great" programmer? Alan W ​(e.g. productivity, cleverness) Alan W ​*Technical* how do you get help in emacs? C-h is good/bad? BartholomewJS ​@Alan W Those standard questions. 😂 Alan W ​lol @BartholomewJS there are many, many more BartholomewJS ​#10 - What scientific programming do you like to do? Alan W ​Do you want spicier social/political questions? @Xah Lee Alan W ​Or more arcane technical questions? BartholomewJS ​Okay what would you do/try with Julia first? Alan W ​Talking about how u like curves will not get u banned on YouTube BartholomewJS ​Except he changes from curves to curvas. Alan W ​lol I think there is a bad polish word that sounds similar which a friend taught me... BartholomewJS ​That's precisely what I am referring to. Alan W ​@BartholomewJS how did u learn that term? aha BartholomewJS ​You learn a lot by living while being very open to the perceivable. Alan W ​that is true; ahaha probably just have to live near some slavic ppl for a while BartholomewJS ​I actually learnt a lot by watching normal movies, because I was consuming every little detail and many of them are informative, even if it does not seem like it, to usual viewers. Alan W ​^with movies, every now and then I wonder how much is planned/intentional, and how many details just come about "naturally" Alan W ​you can only specify so much about a scene to all the actors n stuff Alan W ​MASTER XAH BartholomewJS ​@That is what makes it perceivable and interpretable. BartholomewJS ​Whereas in real situations there are too many factors to count in, at any time of perceptionl. Alan W ​XAH's website is cheaper than a masters degree Alan W ​cheaper than a community college class Alan W ​def worth it 😀 BartholomewJS ​@Xah Lee What would you do when suddenly you would get additional $1000 each month from your supporters just like that? BartholomewJS ​ADDITIONAL $1000. BartholomewJS ​@Xah Lee Alan W ​@BartholomewJS r u trying to make a pitch for YANG GANG 2020? Alan W ​Xah put us into a .txt file, not even Markdown or org mode Alan W ​I feel so deformatted BartholomewJS ​@Xah Lee I was saying, if you had $1000, additionally, to what you already get. So you would get $2000 each month. BartholomewJS ​This Python book triggers me. Programatór ​@Xah Lee maybe you will know how to do vi's 'dd' in emacs :) Programatór ​thats the only vim thing i miss in emacs PajéMalQuisto ​How did you learn complex subjects? I have seen that you have no formal education, that makes all that really impressive. PajéMalQuisto ​I will have to dinner and go out so I will see your response later! Forbidden303 ​@programatór ctrl space ctrl e m'x copy-region-as-kill : ctrl y to yank simpler than dd lol Alan W ​@Xah Lee another question---Xah procedure for introspection (related to yesterday's talk) Alan W ​- How do you find out what you are good at? What you aren't? PajéMalQuisto ​@Alan W Great question Forbidden303 ​@Xah Lee have you ever thought about using osc clients as an input to control emacs: android apps like touch osc with customized templates with jog wheel, toggles and buttons. Alan W ​I'd vote for Tulsi too Alan W ​Yesterday's talk was about Alan W ​who you want to be Alan W ​for example, you were talking about "leadership" type people Alan W ​and then "engineer" or "'philosopher" type people Alan W ​and you started to discuss how you can introspect to see what sort of person you are and what you want to do BartholomewJS ​Actually, we will be wiped out long before that. BartholomewJS ​What do you want to achieve in the next 5 years? Alan W ​I'm from Sacramento , CA Alan W ​but I have a lot of experience studying languages Alan W ​natural languages and computer languages both Alan W ​I work in JavaScript for my day job, but have studied Chinese/Japanese/Korean/Spanish/...

BartholomewJS ​HOMOTOPY TYPE THEORY BartholomewJS ​YEAH MAN PajéMalQuisto ​@Xah Lee Would you use Evernote (not having any privacy) or use an encrypted alternative? Your rants about privacy give me the impression you dont care and would use Evernote. Luis Henriquez-Perez ​Hi!
