Re: X Marks the Spot
I hear you. it was series of lessons with that instructor. And you are probably right. I did not want to hear he wanted to teach. So he got more aggressive with me. Which raised red flags for me.

And I didn't return.
 Quoting: Seer777


1dunno1 You wasnt ready or he wasnt the instructor for you. Or its just not your thing. Happens all the time.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 36602553


He was trying to teach me how to tear peoples eyeballs out. I found that repulsive. I was 13.
 Quoting: Seer777


lol I bet it was because of your size. No one has any muscle on their eyeballs or their adams apple. No matter how big and tough they are. He wanted you to be vicious as an equalizer.

I can see how that could be unsettling though. Especially if that is not what your purpose in learning the art was. It is self defense though and ultimately it is about out thinking your opponent, not overpowering him.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 36602553


Yes. Well stated.

I am very stubborn. And getting me to do that which I find distasteful is near impossible. Which is why he got rough with me. Which left bruises.

That was it for me. At that place.

Re: X Marks the Spot
Isn't it most likely that there are no particles and no space, just standing waves and vortices in an aether?

It seems to me that a 'particle' can have one of three states of charge or spin - positive/negative/none or any other arbitrary system of labeling - and that every other property of matter is a product or combination of these fundamental ones.

I think that the insistence that an aether would comprise 'units' is a failure to escape from our hidden assumption, the particle model. If the aether were an elastic superfluid, why would be need to invoke units and intervening space at all?

Re: X Marks the Spot
I mean I see over the past hundred or so pages you talk a lot of past traumas or very fearful events that have happened, you use a lot of language that things shock you or rock you to your core or test your foundations...etc...so I'm assuming it's a fear of getting hurt by others issue with you, and before you get all defensive, I'm just trying to gain a perspective that better explains you...

Well use your lady at the market for example, what made you not lead into direct contact with her...your belief or something else?

A good portion was 'collective market opinion' and personal observation. I have talked to many who have went to see her and asked their thoughts regarding.

There has been times though, when it was really strong, and I saw her looking.

collective market opinion, is that like the same thing as listening to the local gossip mongers talk about the weirdo in booth 10? :P

It sounds like you approach things in a reconaissance based tactic, observe, gather intel...as opposed to being direct.

The lady at the market you are talking of is a bird?
Or are you talking about the moment you had with a bird where your man kicked your chair or something when he found you at peace communing with nature?

My point in asking is it seems you trust too much of "public" opinion over your own instincts on things and it gets you caught in a cycle of repeatedly retesting yourself, like you're stuck.

I was joking about your sales strategy, trying to stay away from being the feature of a gossip mongers topic isn't really an issue in life with most people after middle school.

I'm still curious though is that really part of your decision to not really just directly interact with that woman, because of your observations and other peoples opinions?

Seems your curiosity of her overrides your intuitive sense to "discount" her abilities, why not just find out by finding out?

Isn't it most likely that there are no particles and no space, just standing waves and vortices in an aether?

It seems to me that a 'particle' can have one of three states of charge or spin - positive/negative/none or any other arbitrary system of labeling - and that every other property of matter is a product or combination of these fundamental ones.

I think that the insistence that an aether would comprise 'units' is a failure to escape from our hidden assumption, the particle model. If the aether were an elastic superfluid, why would be need to invoke units and intervening space at all?

I think of the speed of thought as being classified into groups. If it is something from memory or part of the problem you are solving is already committed to memory then the thought process is sped up exponentially for example.

But sure, ill take that in account. It still sounds like an area of thought to me. All possibilities existing without friction.
