Quote: Unthinkable Thoughts

"Just as there are odors that dogs can smell and we cannot, as well as sounds that dogs can hear and we cannot, so too there are wavelengths of light we cannot see and flavors we cannot taste. 
Why then, given our brains wired the way they are, does the remark 'Perhaps there are thoughts we cannot think', surprise you? 
Evolution, so far, may possibly have blocked us from being able to think in some directions; there could be unthinkable thoughts."
- Richard Hamming (source) (lecture source)

My Notes on Albert Einstein Ideas (As Presented by This Documentary)

(In this post, I talk about different ideas I have about Albert Einstein's thoughts. These ideas either expand Einstein's thoughts or tries to poke holes in them. This comes from my not unlimited knowledge, in that, I am unsure if others have had the same ideas as myself. Some places I don't add my ideas, but just reiterate what the documentary said.)

Albert Einstein Documentary on Youtube

Notes: This is in the early rough draft stages and is not really about the film. I could write at least 5-10 times at much for all the information I know and can think of for this particular topic of space-time. The main purpose for mentioning the film is because it is a great source of mostly unbiased knowledge and it doesn't try to push misinformation. I watched a NOVA video after this and it was full of misinformation, seemed like it was published just for naive public and to generate hype/views.

Thoughts I Think-Thank-Thunk

(See post for some new ideas, start with #3 of 11)

First one, subconsciously thought from The Grinch, maybe, "stink, stank, stunk".

Another title I was thinking of was, "Thinks I Thought" instead of "Thoughts I Think". In modern American language, this is okay, enough.

Quote: You Have Time For Anything, But Not Everything

Today, while I was thinking about being able to make time for blog posts or not, I thought of "You have time for anything, but not everything."

But, that doesn't mean that I won't try!

Social Norms

Social norms are group think and bandwagon, each of which have a negative connotation.

I [typically] don't want to tell people what to think. I'd rather teach somebody how to arrive at the same conclusion that I did. That leaves my method more open to attach/criticism, but I am fine with that. I would very much like to better my thoughts and thought process.

Thought: Ebay Versus Craigslist

Somehow eBay is more trusted than Craigslist, but with eBay you are sending your item farther and still don't know the person.

But, I guess, it's because there is at least a seemingly mediator for the two parties.

"Don't Know" When I Do Know

Sometimes,
I answer a question with "I don't know" even though I may know the answer. It is a subconscious question,  "Does it really matter?" and an unconscious implicit "It doesn't matter."  I never really knew about these types of questions until I thought of it today. This is just a continuation of me trying to harness my subconscious mind by having the ability to think with it more. Meta-thought is where it's at.

Other times,
Explicitness is more beneficial, "I believe you know the answer if you think about it a little more."
