| schestowitz | I once was told that the reason memory of our dreams degrades so quickly is so that we don't mix reality with fiction | Feb 21 08:47 |
| schestowitz | is this true? | Feb 21 08:47 |
| oiaohm | In fact that is not true. | Feb 21 08:48 |
| oiaohm | People will make up lies on the spot they have no explaination for. | Feb 21 08:48 |
| oiaohm | We live in a world of our own fiction. | Feb 21 08:49 |
| oiaohm | Note if you have no explaination for something the lie your brain makes up you will believe as complete truth. | Feb 21 08:49 |
| oiaohm | This is why it pays to check for test results attempt to prove what you believe is false. | Feb 21 08:50 |
| oiaohm | Main reason why dreams degrade unless they are the dreams that scare the crap out of you is that they never move to long term storage. | Feb 21 08:51 |
| oiaohm | schestowitz: The same degrade happens ever day of the week all the time. Like forgetting where you put your keys. | Feb 21 08:51 |
| oiaohm | Because where you put the keys never made it into long term memory. | Feb 21 08:52 |
| oiaohm | schestowitz: rule of being human we believe lies and we forget almost everything. | Feb 21 08:52 |

| schestowitz | It takes two hands (on the keyboard) normally to type and it looks like in most cases you're going to end up needing far more keypresses to get to an item.

| schestowitz | The subject has come up again, I reckon that as long as I can get a persistent connection, it should be possible to do just about everything (same lifestyle) with a surrounding that's more modest and cheaper to live with | Feb 21 21:18 |
| schestowitz | Maybe I should also consult my friend John, who went to Mexico as a programmer/freelancer to live a simple life with his wife. The thing is, after the recession he couldn't get much contract work, I think that only in theory these plans work OK | Feb 21 21:22 |

| schestowitz | but stereotypes in class-conscious society may matter more | Feb 21 21:42 |
| schestowitz | which is why, one option is to opt for academia of the highest tier in a place where the standard is lower | Feb 21 21:42 |
