#2L =0. when D =0 and even when T is Large.
L =0. when T =0 even when D is Large.
If you actually do work hard and create something of value, but don't do a very good job of telling the world about your passionate work, then you're going to be ignored and relegated to obscurity.

Really? Care to give an example on the second one? Sounds like a lot of hand-waving to me.
Obviously, if no one finds out about what you did, no one will know about you. If you're doing something truly extraordinary an old diary, some notes in the margin, or just visible side-effects are enough.
This kind of over-simplification doesn't say much at all. If you're finding the cure for death people will find out eventually, and if you're someone who accidentally got famous (catastrophe survivors, some TV-personalities) you don't have to do anything to get lucky.
EDIT: Replace cure for death with say - trading strategy that makes you insanely rich, or some software which helps you do x much faster than anyone else, or anything really which carries the original signal forward. It was just an extreme (and silly) illustrative example.

People find out because cure for death is D at infinite. Most of the time it isn't. So a reasonable D needs a decent T to make a viable L.

Luck is an attribute that comes into picture in various forms.
Life Saving, accidentally got famous, catastrophe survivors -
Which I feel is the Karma factor. Isn't it the doing factor(D)? Doing is spreading good, consciousness and awakening. Karma is accumulated Points from your past births + Present life deeds also plays its part.
So D is the karma you've got inside from all your births(Birth1 + Birth2 + ... + Birth7).

#7Take D as the karma factor. Isn't it the doing factor(D)? Doing is spreading goodness, getting more conscious and ultimately awakening. Simple - Karma is accumulated Points from your past births + Present life deeds also plays its part.

I don't think redefining established terms like doing stuff in order to suit your argument is going to get you much karma here on HN.

#10Except if you tell people you're going to do something you're less likely to do it since your brain can trick itself into feeling the same happy feelings it would feel if you actually did it... I'm not convinced the equation holds.
