|---|---|---|
| kanzure | "Much recent research suggest that willpower-- the capacity to exert self-control-- is a limited resource that is depleted after exertion." | 00:44 |
| kanzure | "We propose that whether depletion takes place or not depends on a person's belief about whether willpower is a limited resource." | 00:44 |
| kanzure | say what now | 00:44 |
| kanzure | i guess this is the most direct way to tell someone that their belief in willpower is bullshit | 00:45 |
| kanzure | (i'm not sure if i have ever known someone to believe they had unlimited/infinite willpower who was also able to back it up with physical results) | 00:46 |
| Utopiah | guess that's a strict proof for The Secret (morning humour warning) | 00:46 |
| kanzure | s/physical/actual/ digital counts | 00:46 |
| delinquentme_ | kanzure, so i've dled a harvard review on business | 00:51 |
| delinquentme_ | and they've got findings akin to that | 00:52 |
| kanzure | i am sleeping | 00:52 |
| delinquentme_ | the title is "manage your energy .. not your time" | 00:52 |
| delinquentme_ | sleep? ^^^^ | 00:52 |
| delinquentme_ | gj | 00:52 |
| ybit | delinquentme_: linkage appreciated | 00:53 |
| kanzure | i continue to find all of these theories of mental energy and willpower and self-control to be very lame | 00:54 |
| kanzure | and insufficient. | 00:54 |
| kanzure | so i wouldn't take much stock in them. | 00:54 |
| * kanzure goes back to sleep | 00:54 | |
| delinquentme_ | thereeee we go | 00:56 |
| delinquentme_ | http://www.smith.edu/smp/resource-center/articles/Manage%20Your%20Energy%20Not%20Your%20Time.pdf | 00:56 |
| delinquentme_ | if it works for you use it | 00:56 |
| delinquentme_ | if it doesnt | 00:56 |
| delinquentme_ | dont | 00:56 |
| delinquentme_ | "pragmatism" | 00:56 |
| kanzure | that's a load of fucking shit, either they made a good study about the brain or they didn't | 00:56 |
| kanzure | autistics.org/library/inertia.html has been taken down | 00:58 |

| jrayhawk | There are a lot of hormonal and energy factors that could be loosely thought of as 'willpower' being 'used up' | 02:41 |
| jrayhawk | But, yes, 'will' is generally a label used in agency-oriented thought processes rather than rational thought processes and, as a result, gets associated with all manner of magical thinking. | 02:44 |
| jrayhawk | It has plenty of semantic value in its ability to import rational concepts to nonrational minds, so it's actually fairly impulsive and ignorant to declare it worthless. | 02:46 |
| jrayhawk | I guess I should start using 'idea-oriented' rather than 'rational' | 02:48 |
| jrayhawk | since 'rational' and 'irrational' and 'nonrational' have unpredictable value implications | 02:49 |

| kanzure | hooray for lee | 07:21 |
| kanzure | (lee smolin) | 07:21 |
| kanzure | jrayhawk: but none of that helps elucidiate whether or not there is an actual physical basis to 'willpower' in any useful sense | 07:22 |

| fenn | interesting that modafinil.com is owned by david pearce | 15:56 |
| fenn | one would have expected cephalon to file some trademark something or other, but maybe they prefer all the 'unofficial' info | 15:57 |
| fenn | according to some anecdotal articles i've read, modafinil is basically synthetic willpower :\ | 15:58 |

| QuantumG | if you watch one video about space this week, watch this one. Watch the whole thing: http://bit.ly/ld1BQp | 19:15 |
| ybit | QuantumG: what if i watch one space video this year, is it worth it? ;) | 19:23 |
| QuantumG | yup | 19:23 |
| JayDugger | ybit, yes. | 19:34 |
| JayDugger | QuantumG--what's the origin of Greason's quote at 12' or so, the "fields of Pellinor" and the "the enemy in the East"? | 19:35 |
| QuantumG | I didn't get it either.. | 19:36 |
| kanzure | it's been 2 years since my dad passed away and i'm still finding extra IRA accounts all over the place | 19:39 |
| kanzure | .. and other instruments that i haven't ever used | 19:39 |
| kanzure | it's strange. | 19:40 |
| JayDugger | Found it, it comes from Tolkien's "Return of the King," and it refers to a tactical victory that lacks strategic effect. | 19:40 |
| JayDugger | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Pelennor_Fields | 19:41 |
| JayDugger | My sympathies, Kanzure. | 19:41 |
| JayDugger | That must be awkward and inconvenient. I dread doing the same for my parents. | 19:41 |
| kanzure | there are legal issues popping up (possibly stolen money, etc. etc.) that i might have to go fight in court | 19:42 |
| JayDugger | Gack...even worse. | 19:43 |
| JayDugger | I hope it ends well for your family and for you. | 19:44 |
| QuantumG | JayDugger: oh, that's why I wouldn't get it :P | 19:45 |
| kanzure | i don't really understand the point of having multiple schwab/etrade/ameritrade/fidelity accounts | 19:47 |
| kanzure | i'm also not sure how to get to the part where i own dwave's ass | 19:50 |
