2021-03-07T03:12:52-08:00 (
remote@www.frogorbits.com ) @niplav I wouldn’t disagree with your characterization of people who’re interested in radical life extension, but their **messaging**, generally, seems to not mention “adding life to your years” at all. “Live to be 150” doesn’t sound all that great if you’re going to have 15 years of being in your 80s, so to speak.
2021-03-07T03:09:47-08:00 (

Sure, you can make a bunch of predictions at the beginning of the year and calculate the Brier score for last year’s predictions, but all you need to do to feel that kind of cloud-dispelling mental work is this: go pants shopping, think of how good you’ll be at losing fat in light of all your previous new-year fat-loss attempts, and choose between pants with a 34″ inseam and pants with a 35″ inseam.

One of the nice things about OmniFocus is that it can be really good at hiding tasks you can’t make headway on at the moment for one reason or another, assuming you tag things appropriately.
