Life Consideration 202408

Life Consideration Series §

• Premises

  • Link 1
    • Realizing that worrying about the future is not a productive activity, it is preferred to approach it as entertainment under a “moratorium.”
    • If aiming for productivity, rather than worrying, one should focus on gathering information or making decisions.

    • Having confidence that if given enough free time, interesting things will be pursued, the goal is to maximize free time while maintaining a stable income.
    • In this context, companies like Cybozu Lab or Sony CSL seem ideal, as they allow pursuing personal projects while earning a regular income.
      • Idealizing a career of researchers who earn a fixed income while not being confined to academia and working on personal projects freely.
        • Mentioned individuals like Nishio (Cybozu) and Glen (MSR).
        • Creating a Future World Combatively through Simultaneously Running Research, Business, and Other Projects in Life
    • /tkgshn-private/Misconceptions about “Entrepreneurs”
      • Understanding the similarity in viewpoints (blu3mo).

• Following this approach, it’s not necessary to immediately decide “what to do with that free time.”

• Variables to consider in paid work include the choice of base country (= visa status), the level of income, the titles/affiliations/social capital to acquire, and the degree of freedom and free time available.

• Instead of making fixed decisions, it seems more sensible to clearly define personal desires and actively engage with others to discover serendipitous opportunities.

• Considering an alternative perspective, Creating Something Alone Without Scaling.

• Factors to consider include abilities like project execution and decision-making, the extent of ambition, physical stamina, community involvement, and altruism.

• Feeling that there is a wealth of information and thoughts to process, there is a desire to articulate thoughts clearly.

===

• Desired Goals
  • Continuous loop of 1) abstract discussions about the future and 2) concrete implementation exploration for feedback.
    • This loop has been consistent for a while.
• Currently, running this feedback loop alone.
  • While occasionally collaborating or discussing with others, primarily relying on personal efforts.
• The aim is to expand this feedback loop beyond individual capabilities.
  • While expanding, still wanting to remain at the core of the feedback loop.
  • Abstract discussions
    • Aspire to reach ideas beyond individual knowledge or processing abilities.
    • Emphasizing breadth/interdisciplinarity and depth/expertise.
  • Concrete implementation exploration

    • Intending to deploy and provide value in the real world.

        - Background like [Published Interface Systems Will Never Become Popular](https://scrapbox.io/masui/論文として発表されたインタフェースシステムが流行ることはない)
      

• Ideal scenario
  • Shouting “Adaptable Body,” raising 1.2 billion, and engaging 200 researchers/students in broad discussions, implementation, and exploration.
• Also mentioned in Hypothesis on How to Proceed in Life 20240917.
