hi,
there’s an idea found both in the deepest corners of the amazon rain forest and in the deepest corners of a dead-end office job. it governs how all of the animals in either of the settings behave.
that idea is Specialization. the act of finding a niche, a role unfulfilled, in your system and dominating it. getting so good at one specific thing that you have to be rewarded handsomely.
i find that idea disgusting. human beings are not insects.
i hope to be a more full and scattered brain. i don’t want to put all of my eggs in one basket of knowledge.
these are my personal notes on a wide array of things that interest me. i hope that by sharing them someone, somewhere finds some use out of them. moreover, i hope that the act of sharing them adds some fuel to the fire.
also, they are mere shrubs right now. but the garden will grow.
this practice is inspired by Andy Matuschak’s personal notes.
