I look around and see what is going on around me, things have changed since last you looked; you can get surprisingly good at judging what time it is based off the sunlight through a window. Sometimes I think about something if something happens to pop into my mind.
What sort of things do you notice?
And breathe, taken literally. Get off your phone OP and just do a bit of meditation for those minutes, I promise you'll feel better, more so than trying to micro optimize within that time.
Thank you!
You’ll lose your mind if you try to micro-optimize your life like this. Use that time to breathe.
maybe productive isn’t the right word - more like satisfying and constructive. Right now I might play blitz chess or end up checking the news or X. But when I’m in the middle of a good book or some long form content, I’ll use that time to read and it’s much more fulfilling.
And I think breathing meditation is an excellent idea! I didn’t only mean phone-specific activities at all! Thank you
It is interesting how the hallucinations consistently represent tiny people/elves to the mushroom consumer, even across geography/culture.
I wonder what the brain is doing…
I think it makes sense given the following:
- Your brain has been trained extensively to recognize faces / people. Even very small babies can do this.
- Your brain processes a large amount of mostly noise, and sometimes mislabels noise as objects, which trends towards face-like things (see: seeing faces in clouds, people in shadows etc.) Various classes of substances make this effect more noticeable (even stimulants, including caffeine)
- The jump from that to 'elves' is largely just cultures have some form of small magical person.
This is really cool, I enjoyed going through them in this form. Thanks

Your fascination seems hinged on the fact that IBM has "lots of talent to make ML/LLMs work" which judging by what they've put out so far and talk publicly about, is very far from the truth. Anyone who has a clue seems to (rightly) have left IBM decades ago, and left are business people who think "Managed to increase margin by 0.1%" is something to celebrate.
It’s a shame because people forget how good IBM research was back in the day. I do wonder if they still have great people in those r&d labs, or if they all left.
