    This is the only app I've built for myself: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-mirror-timer/id6760243207 It's basically an adaptive timer for remaining oneself to be mindful and awa…

    It's related to this https://trane-project.github.io/generated_courses/transcript... which generates all the individual lessons for each stage in the guide. It has nothing to do wi…

    We would be a much more musically proficient society if we stopped this obsession with teaching music through written notation and just taught music aurally from the beginning, and…

    I highly advice anyone against taking up this type of ear training practice if what they want is just to play music recreationally. I did it for a while, stressed out about it, and…

    The only religious argument is materialism. It's real because enough people have convinced themselves that it's "scientific". Even though there is no proof whatsoever, no solid hyp…

    I can't read minds. I know I have one and you know you have one. That's enough for both of us to know that mind is a real phenomenon. As for why any materialist explanations are un…

    What is there to explain about psychedelics? There is nothing special to them. They affect the bodily aggregates of a being and cause the contents of the experience to change. So d…

    There is no hard problem of consciousness not because of the baffling arguments against it in this article, but because materialism is not true. This article and the entire descrip…

    No need. You just find someone that has a proper transmission, meaning that they were taught by a teacher that also had transmission, and so on. It's sort of like medical school. Y…

    If it's any consolation, they are full of shit. In the second jhana and above, the factors of initial and sustained attention disappear. In practical terms, this means you cannot d…

    There is plenty of proof, just not the type of proof likely to be accepted by people looking for a measurement from an external device, which precludes scientific proof until consc…

    I mostly work with existing codebases so I didn't really want to vibecode for real. The only vibecoded thing was an iOS app and I didn't follow this process because I don't know iO…

    I've been trying codex and claude code for the past month or so. Here's the workflow that I've ended up with for making significant changes. - Define the data structures in the cod…

    Show HN: Prepare for coding interviews via deliberate practice

    I built InterviewTraner to fix how people prepare for coding interviews. Most people grind LeetCode problems randomly or follow static lists, which is not very effective. Interview…

    I think full literate programming is overkill but I've been doing a lighter version of this: - Module level comments with explanations of the purpose of the module and how it fits …

    This is completely incorrect. The process of Tukdam has nothing to do with diet. I can’t say what the actual process involves with too many details because it’s not appropriate to …
