Reflections

I’ve been over-eating so much recently. In general, I’ve been living with very little structure and restraint. I’ve fallen into the pattern of pushing “fixing” my life to some later date and using that as an excuse to do whatever I feel like doing. The two-marshmallow side of my brain has not fired in the last month. Instead of “unblocking” myself by doing all the things that I know will help me get back onto the forward-thinking, “being good repeatedly” 202210031623 side of myself, I’ve been checking Pinboard in the hopes of finding something exciting and productive-seeming enough for me to justify the fact that I’m neglecting all of my actual responsibilities. I haven’t even been reading the articles that I have saved because that would serve to unblock the mental dam I’ve created for myself, and I’ve been terrified to do that.

I’m going to start thinking of my life as a Bayesian 202212092211: think about the prior probability of a claim in isolation, and update the posterior probability of the claim in light of the likelihood of displayed evidence.
