Average minds think alike
Discussion
Hard disagree, mostly because I refuse to believe you have an average mind.
Feel like we’ve entered some sort of logical paradox 😂
The forced conclusion is that the original statement, in defiance of your singular intellect, was in fact illogical.
If we have the proposition "minds think alike" we'd like to draw conclusions as to quality of those minds, but the truth is... We can't.
I have got caught in this trap, it was brought on by two people that I considered wholesale idiots using the great minds phrase to congratulate themselves for shared idiocy.
But then I got caught in an endless loop of trying to decide whether great or weak minds were more likely to "think alike"
My 3 decade search for answer only resolved when you introduced average minds to the calculus. For that I am forever in your debt.
“Congratulate themselves on shared idiocy” 💀
It was my typical quip-style post which sprang to mind after interaction with average Gary this morning. We were both coincidentally studying schnorr signatures.
I need to ruminate further on your reply, kinda blowing my mind this early in the morning
You got me thinking.
You are unique. Just like everybody else.
We had a meeting and decided that you are the most unique. Because you weren't at the meeting.
I second that. In my absence.
Whew! It nice to get affirmation from a unique perspective.
Though the fact you agree with us, does make us question if we got it right.
Above or below.
The fact that I have no idea what you mean is comforting.
Averageness was the point of contention.
Real quick question. Was it you, Daniel, that convinced me to get the Remarkable (apologies but I’m terrible at getting social graphs straight these days)?
If so, thanks! Was waiting for a few more days of use before going back to that thread and giving verdict, but so far it’s amazing
Lol, I think you convinced yourself. I simply added usage data. But glad to hear you like it!
How are you using it? I am almost an exclusive small grid template guy.
Tried that, then medium dots (which I wanna like more than I actually do), and landing on lines-small for now it seems. Only had couple days with it though.
Jotting daily thoughts, notes on cryptography, imported some pdfs. Bought a small lamp to clip on but it’s not ideal.
