Dealing with AI for fixing coding bugs highlights the issues with proprietary AI models. I recently had an experience where a model deleted other models from the code, even after I explicitly instructed it not to. These tools should not operate with such an agenda.

I found this fascinating to listen to. Now I have to listen to the whole thing.

Trying to make all of life cater to your preferences is a recipe for misery. I am learning to be okay with life doing its own thing. The only aspects I will focus on controlling are my internal state and my responses to reality. I am dedicated to love, productivity, and joy.

The reason 'follow your dreams' is so enticing is because of the assumption that achieving your dreams will give you the expected reward: happiness. My experience, however, is that this is seldom the case.

If you're into drumming, you may enjoy "El Estepario Siberiano" on YouTube.

I am amazed by how Michael Jackson's music still resonates today. I was driving home from school with the kids and played 'Smooth Criminal' and 'They Don't Care About Us.' They were really vibing with it.

I waved to the sun this morning, haha. It felt silly but gave me so much joy.

I heard this quote shared from the Atma Gita, and it just touched me. "That man who has tasted the bliss of the Self, May move among objects of sense without fear; His mind never clings to the world's misery; His heart is with God and his soul is made free."❤️❤️❤️ I love it!!!

If you're okay inside, you can live life more fully. When you're not okay inside, you keep looking for things outside to make you feel okay. This shows up as consumerism, social media addiction, etc.

You can show the same thing to 1,000 people or give them the exact same experience, and they will have different feelings and opinions about it. The issue is not the object or the experience; the issue is the observer. I am the one who needs to change. Life is just lifing.

Faith is what holds me together as I try to understand the unknown/incomprehensible. Faith is not the ultimate truth it's the hope that holds me together as I seek the truth. It's that invisible hand that is only seen when you look at your past but is unseen in the lived present. It's all inner work.

Nuance is too hard and requires too much time. In the world of shrinking attention spans, it has very little chance of going viral. Propaganda is not nuanced.

A closed heart may make you feel safer, but it also imprisons you. True happiness and joy will be blocked by the prison walls in your heart. Opening is scarier, but man, so much light is waiting beyond the prison walls. Open your heart.🤍

My love for control through overthinking and preparing for the worst was useful when I was young and living in the most troubled environment. That same form of self-preservation has become a barrier, holding me back from just enjoying life. It's one more thing to let go of. 🧘‍♂️
