  1. Conquereth Hew Own Soul 1/10
I’ve been reflecting on The Road to Character by David Brooks. He writes about two selves: Adam I, chasing success, and Adam II, seeking depth and meaning. 🌱

  2. I find it... Well, I don't know how to feel because thirst traps are a more acceptable form of self-promotion nowadays compared to personal insights and understandings about life. Those who do what people call "self-promotion" in this way are, I guess, the most disliked.

  3. "Where have you been for the last 20 years?" - The question that changed everything. This isn't a BSDCan report, but a personal reflection on how impostor syndrome stole decades from me, and why it's never too late to find your community and live life fully.

  4. Ночь
    Я размышляю о смысле жизни, её целях и причинах, а также о том, какова цель 'я', если ты умрёшь.
    Если сознание 'я' ограничено телом и вынуждено принудительно соответствовать правилам реальности, и при этом у нас есть защита от самоуничтожения, то, возможно, жизнь можно рассматривать как своеобразное заключение в тюрьме.
    Мысли про сознание 'я'.

    English:
    "I contemplate the meaning of life, its goals and reasons, as well as the purpose of 'self' when one dies. If the 'self' is constrained by the body and compelled to conform to the rules of reality, all while having protection from self-destruction, then life can perhaps be viewed as a peculiar confinement in a prison. Thoughts on the 'self'."
