Why People Spend Time with Each Other

Humans cherish time spent with each other. But this is purely due to the fact that human memory is slow-to-write, inconsistent-to-read, and weak-in-persistence. 

This is regularly addressed in science fiction : flawless recollection, instantaneous communication, permanent memory. No one would bother to spend time with other people.

So, if you find my social behaviour weird, just take it from me ... that my memory works differently than most people's ... partly as result of training. I'd prefer spending time training myself to not need to spend time with people, rather than spending time with people.

Life is short. Make the most of it. Hehe.

I hate mayo, but ...

I've decided that while I hate mayonaise, I"ll make a concession for EVOO mayo. I know people don't like bitter mayo, but I think generally vegetable oil is a boring ingredient ... and EVOO is the only generally available EV with an interesting flavour profile. Maybe cold-pressed grapeseed oil too. But heck, I don't think I have the time or budget for tests, yet.

Personal Governance going into 2023

2000 : I got my highschool diploma.

2004 : I figured out how to quantify human experience, and projected that it would take me 20 years to fully absorb the implications of this understanding.

2005 : I graduated from college in the US, and decided to study commerce in Malaysia.

2007 : Having quit my third job, after two years of work, I began pursuing gradschool at home while working. At this point I began to have enough free time for dating, which was severely deprioritised in the stages before that. A lot of commercial distractions happened here, I worked on software engineering, and food and beverage retail. I set segmented directional goals in 2008 ... maybe I should make an updated version.

2012 : I did grad school at home, full-time, for most of the year.

2013-2022 : I allocated a decade for commercial pursuits. I dated the most in this period.

2023 : my schedule tells me it is time to deallocate from commercial pursuits. Time to refocus on studies, for a bit. Perhaps in the future, a greater focus on commerce. Something tells me, my schedule is gonna be hella messy anyway.

Big hmm.
