Just remember you'll be dead all too soon and let life flow accordingly.

Your problem is that you thought understanding could guide you in meditation. It can't. But it's still necessary for advanced techniques. Anything worthwhile takes time and discipline--don't give up. Real meditation isn't a weekend retreat.

I highly suggest "The Tibetan Book of The Dead" and "The Power of Silence." Try to find the TBOTD version translated by W.Y. Evans-Wentz if you're not one for happy meal, watered-down philosophy. Take these texts with a grain of salt at fir

Definitely agree this juggling rests in experienced hands. A vet knows what balls can be dropped and which ones cannot. My thoughts on this are: 1) As a rule of thumb, the longer the project the more structured it should be--which should be

Out of curiosity, what barter product was it? I've been working on an offline sharing site ( http://pickupon.com/ ) specializing in direct trade for a while and just started inviting friends. Any opinions/advice in this area?

It would be interesting if features and the amount of content produced by them scaled with the frequency of interactivity between contacts. WLN seems to draw just another arbitrary line. Although it has some flaws, using levels of shared kn

Thanks, this was the type of answer I was looking for. S3 definitely sounds affordable. I knew bandwidth would get expensive but had no clue exactly how bad.

MVP is convenient. It allows users to pay for their level of involvement from what I understand. I agree if a startup is going to play that game they should be transparent. Some people get paid to stick company advertisements on the sides o

I have many friends who are much less intelligent than I who are attending "better" schools for infuriatingly trivial reasons. Getting good grades has as much to do with intelligence as it does with your ability to take tests--unless you co

1) Although videos are visual aids by definition, it wasn't suggesting that a human could visualize any dimension except the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd I believe; this is why mathematicians must use numerical expressions (iterated for the nth ti

I have to disagree. Just because "results where in 5-space and up you can see and exist in all time simultaneously" appears to be "wacky" doesn't mean it's not possible. It's simply not part of your definition or interpretation of your curr

Any europeans here on HN? I had a german professor last semester tell me many schools/teachers don't require students to buy specific textbooks and do homework problem sets in Europe. They just expect their students to understand the materi

Yeah, kind of thought so--a little diversity can be refreshing imo. I noticed that HN redirects you to a previous submission if you use the same url. Perhaps the same could be done if you post something with the same url used on a previous

It seems a lot of people are concerned about HN turning into other communities. How is this avoidable? Require everyone to debug a snippet of code before registering or logging in? I personally wouldn't mind this.

True. I realized this a while ago and my life is a lot less confusing. I've dabbled in media long enough to know it's more magic than reality. When you need to find, shoot, and edit a piece in less than 24 hours on a limited budget the trut

About a week ago, I decided to cancel my ISP bill at home. The support technician was very confused when I answered him that I would not be switching to another provider. The most noticeable result from the experiment thus far is that I sle
