If you know less than you have freedom to apply, you a creator and learn on-demand (a).
If you know more than you have freedom to apply, you either ignore the situation and get comfortable (b), or work hard to change it (c).

People of type (a) run the world. people of type (b) are 99% of students and 9-to-5 workers.
I belong to type (c).

Поговорки

2007-12-24T17:58:00Z

Говорят в народе:

работай, как будто тебе не надо денег;
люби, как будто тебе никто никогда не причинял боль;
танцуй, как будто никто не смотрит;
пой, как будто никто не слышит;
живи, как будто на земле рай

А вот мой вариант:

работай, так чтоб за твою работу хотелось заплатить
люби такую котороая в любой момент может уйти
танцуй, после того как выделил время и научился
пой, так чтоб твою песню подхватили
живи, создавая маленький рай вогруг себя

Perception of reality

2007-11-23T11:08:59Z

I am amazed by how fallible is my perception of reality. I have spent 6 hours staring at the spelling "hanukka" and "hanukkah" and not seeing the difference. I knew the bug in my program must be related to inconsistent spelling of the word, but I thought my mistake would be either with the double n's or double k's, which matched in both spellings. I never *thought* of the last "h", and therefore it didn't exist in my world. WYSIWYG: What You See Is What You Get ? No, WYTIWYS: What You Think Is What You See.

Things learned on my Europe trip

2007-10-21T09:23:40Z

1. In Zurich airport, escalators slow down when no one is walking on them,
they move very slowly only to show that they are working. The moment someone steps
on them their speed smoothly increases to a normal speed.

The folowing posts are about France (Paris):

2. Everything is smaller here. The elevator in the apartment complex I live in fits at most two people, to the point that they have to touch each other.

3. They don't leave tips here, but they say "merci" a million times.

4. I saw a drinking cup with round bottom, so it's as if it is falling, but it doesn't actually fall.

5. Furniture in the apartments is old, wooden. Like in Russia.

6. Toilet paper is pink.

Boris quote:

Чем за общее счастье без толку страдать -
Лучше счастье кому-нибудь близкому дать.
Лучше друга к себе привязать добротою,
Чем от пут человечество освобождать.
