Low-Force Chiropractors (Bay Area)
Gentle / instrument-only / non-thrust chiropractors — DNFT, Network Spinal (NSA), NUCCA, Activator, SOT, upper cervical. Bay Area focus, with a few Santa Cruz / Palo Alto adjacent.
## Style key
- **DNFT** = Directional Non-Force Technique (thumb-based, very specific, rare)
- **NSA / Network Spinal** = light touch contacts at spinal gateways (Donald Epstein)
- **NUCCA / Upper Cervical** = atlas-only adjusting
- **Activator** = instrument-only, no cracking
- **SOT** = Sacro-Occipital Technique, gentle blocks
## Related lists
- **Body Masters** — /list/1346495e-fe47-4bd4-8379-9963df2bf810 (bodyworkers, yoga, PTs; this list is the chiropractic-specialized subset)
Each entry has `extras.location` (blank if unknown) and tags including the exact technique. Compiled 2026-05-21 from official DNFT directory, NUCCA directory, Yelp/Healthgrades, and Jacob's call/text history.

LLM Inference Providers — Speed/Cost/Limits Comparison
#researchlist
LLM inference providers (2026) compared on $/M tokens, RPM/TPM limits, and real operating experience running CollabLists agents against each one. Includes web-search APIs too.
## What we concluded (2026-05-20)
After running a multi-tool agent loop on Cerebras-primary and hitting token_quota_exceeded 429s on essentially every prompt, the operating recipe we landed on is:
1. **Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.5 — PRIMARY.** With prompt caching (cache_control: ephemeral) on system + tools, cached input is billed at 10% rate after the first call. High TPM, native web_search, supports tool loops with long context. Slower per call (~2-5s) than Cerebras but reliably completes.
2. **Cerebras gpt-oss-120b — SECONDARY.** Use it for SHORT specialty tasks (validation, summarization, classification) where 3000 tok/s decode is genuinely useful. NOT a generalist primary — TPM constraints make long agentic loops fail.
3. **Fireworks AI — TERTIARY.** OpenAI-compatible, 356ms TTFT, plenty of TPM headroom on paid tier. Slot 3 of the fallback chain (after Anthropic & Cerebras, before Groq).
4. **Groq — FALLBACK.** Free tier 6K TPM is too low for production but useful when the first three all fail.
5. **Web search**: Brave (paid for general queries) + Anthropic-native (free, on Claude path). Brave wins 2026 benchmarks on agent score + latency + price.
The big lesson: Cerebras is optimized for fast SHORT inference (their pitch) and is genuinely the best at that. It is NOT designed for long-context multi-tool agent loops — per SemiAnalysis: *"Cerebras architecture makes it hard to economically serve... long context lengths representative of today's agentic workloads."* Don't use Cerebras as a generalist agent backend.

Adam Reis
Rippling for HR/IT management, Carta, loads of GSuite (HIPAA compliant, so we put lots of stuff there that other companies might put in email/slack), Notion (although very redundant with how we use gdocs right now - haven’t quite figured this out), Trello (thinking of switching to Linear or Asana soon), Metabase for BI (just setting up now), going to set up Lever or Ashby as a recruiting ATS/CRM in the coming weeks, HIPAA compliant Zoom, Slack, Nick and I use Superhuman,
That’s the short version; let me know if you have any questions about how we use specific tools!
Brandon T
the company used: definitely notion for org knowledge store (onboarding, design specs (explained from a figma/sketch file), roadmapping, general writings, RFCs, GTM, etc. etc.). we used clubhouse (jira alternative), metabase, slack, carta, amplitude, segment, loom, probably some other tools i'm forgetting about
David Ernst
I use Google Docs/Sheets heavily, don’t use Notion, Carta, or linear.app currently
New parts of Shadi’s stack:
Monday.com for team task management, Atom teletype for pair programming, Pastel for leaving design feedback on live pages.
Anthony (Namebase)
Hey! Sure, we stopped using notion like 18mos ago since the web UI got prohibitively slow when we started to have bigger / more complicated docs. We're forced to port everything to Google docs then, which we still use. Maybe they've fixed their perf issues now but back then it was not tolerable
For code pairing we'll ssh into a server with a tmux session, which achieves this --^, but there are some issues (no multiple cursors) so it doesn't quite solve the problem. High barrier to get started too

Thiel Fellowship App
Tell us a bit about yourself (essay or link to video)
Hi! I’m an exuberant Web entrepreneur and MIT undergraduate studying Electrical Engineering/Computer Science and English Literature (2015). I’m passionate, above all, about the practice and philosophy of tai chi, which I see as inextricable from the enterprise of understanding, facilitating, and ultimately automating, intelligence. Furthermore, I see building systems to facilitate intelligent governance/collaborative creativity as laying the groundwork for strong AI. In 2012, just after I turned 20 and was made ineligible for the past Thiel Fellowship, these observations crystallized into an actionable vision, which I’ve been since building out, through the medium of research advised by MIT Prof. Tim Berners-Lee and Henry Lieberman. This past year, while I was studying abroad Oxford University (in their program in Computer Science and Philosophy), the first face of the project acquired a dedicated user base, and billionaire Nicolas Berggruen committed to invest.
Something I know to be true that few others believe is that Facebook is the tip of the much larger iceberg that is the yet unrealized original vision of the World Wide Web, (particularly, the Giant Global Graph en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Global_Graph). I explain more of my recent story in later sections.
To share some of my more personal background, I’ve included a college essay, with forms of which I was accepted to MIT, Harvard, and Stanford, among other schools. (This essay can also be found posted under the pseudonym “John Smith” on the website admitsphere.org, which I started with my MIT roommate, a popular collaborative wiki of college essays and advice.)
Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences in the space below or on an attached sheet (150 words or fewer).
Every weekend after my karate class, I volunteer for an hour and a half teaching kids ages 3-12. The first class is the "Little Ninjas," who are just 3-5 years old. These are among my favorites to teach because they have no preconceptions or attitude. They look at you unjudgmentally and listen to what you have to say, and they will try out whatever you suggest. Sometimes they're timid at the beginning, but mostly they're just enthusiastic. Even though they are not usually all that skilled at doing the moves the first time around, I am always amazed to see what they can do after just a couple of weeks: they slide into shoulder rolls and throw spinning kicks more naturally than I do! It's refreshing to teach these little guys; their unbridled innocence makes it impossible for me to become frustrated or lose my smile.
Personal Essay
"Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you."
I never intended to hire anybody. In fact, I never sought to obtain employment myself. I was too busy having fun with computers to be bothered with any of that. But as soon as you know how to hit "ctrl-alt-delete," it seems everyone wants tech support, and one thing leads to another.
All I'd done was befriend the shy, thick-spectacled, computer wizard in my seventh grade multimedia class. He spent most of his time furiously typing cryptic symbols (like "preg_grep('/^[\.a-z0-9]+@/i',$r)") into his dinosaur workstation, bewitching it to run with blazing speed, perform complex calculations, and produce slick graphics. Boggled but intrigued, I asked him to teach me how to do this. He pointed me to a few tutorials on the programming language PHP and showed me how to host files on a server, and I was on my way.
It turned out to be a lot like magic: you typed commands in an arcane language and shazam! The computer would produce seemingly supernatural effects, like finding all the answers to your wordsearch homework. Amazing. Sure, it took more effort to write the programs than to just do the work by hand, but then again, exploring the frontiers of this miraculous w

- [Global Idea Bank](http://globalideabank.jacobcole.net)
- “ThunderPledge” – a website like Kickstarter for pledging to take collective actions when you reach a critical mass. For instance, there are a large number of people who would consider becoming vegetarian for climate reasons but feel like it's pointless unless millions of others do the same. Using ThunderPledge you could pledge to become vegetarian only when a million other people have also committed the same. At that point, not only would you know for certain that your change is part of making a difference, but you would have a ready-made support group of people all trying to do the same thing.
- This generalizes to many applications – for instance organizing a boycott. Boycotts are useless unless they reach critical mass. (A friend called this “Kickstopper”!). Additionally it could perhaps be worth making a variant “ThunderVote” specifically dedicated to the voting use case. If you are, for instance, a democrat in a largely Republican area, you might think it's useless for you to get out and vote. But using this site, you could mark who you’d vote for with the touch of a button, but only pledge to actually make it to the polls if a thousand other people of your same political leanings in your district do the same.

- David Chen: I feel like there's additional work in just informing and mobilizing people re: climate that can be done. The top of funnel of "what to learn/how do I help" is pretty undersupported right now
- David Chen: I'm personally interested in structuring and augmenting information/memory/recall - I feel like stuff like Roam makes you do too much work.

[Contact: jacobcole4000@gmail.com](mailto:jacobcole4000@gmail.com)
Questions
Questions we would ask a person who has attained enlightenment
- Where does the self end and the other begin?
- What would you say to someone who claims to be enjoying duality for now?
- Can I reincarnate in the past?
- How can we distinguish wise action from unwise action? How would we know when to depart from an orthodox pattern for learning meditation to do something more innovative for a modern context?
- Can Maitreya incarnate as an AI?
- Can you teach an AI to give Pointing Out instruction (if needed, imagine you can also control pacing/tone of voice)?
- What questions should I be asking you?
- Can you remember consciousness pre-enlightenment – describe the change from your pre-enlightened experience of the world to post-enlightenment?
- Can this practice help with healing of the physical body and if so how can we apply it (if this is a wise goal)? How can we remove physical injuries that are an obstacle to practice?
- What can we do to engage and produce wellness / support of the physical body while doing the practices you recommend?
- How can we sublimate sexual energy most effectively into spiritual growth?
- How would you motivate, in two sentences, a Westerner not interested in meditation to meditate (if you think it’s worthwhile to suggest this)?
- What do you think of kriya yoga/energy-guiding-consciousness based approaches to cultivation?
Tom
What is he doing to help people?
Shadi
What is the thing that we are not getting?
Although maybe thinking that there is I think that I am not getting is the thing standing between me and enlightenment
Kade
If you were to try to impart whatever state you’re in to 10,000 people, how might you do that?
Ted
Feel him for me and report back 😊
DK
nope, send him my love :)
Cody
I'd be curious whether they feel a need to know what it's like to be other parts of the physical world, be it a tree, or another living human being.
Jessica
how will i know when i’ve found my purpose/calling 😄
Millie
I’m curious about how this person could tell he attained enlightenment and one radical / radically subtle different way he lived or viewed life from it
Cedric
What would I ask a Buddha if I had a chance? The desire is to somehow learn something about that experience that might lead me closer.
First things that common to mind: how did it happen for you? what are you doing now with your life?
More meta questions: what are you hoping I ask you? What are you hoping I don’t ask you?
About others who are enlightened: Have you met another who is as you are? How do you know they are experiencing the world as you are? Was their moment of understanding similar to yours?
Matt
I’m curious how he would define love
And how he thinks of attachments
Julia
I always wondered if “enlightened” people feel any motivation to work hard to solve problems on/ about earth or rather 🧘 peacefully all day lol
Alex z
What are his thoughts on the prophet Muhammad?
Misha
How becoming enlightened has differed from his expectations, now that he is there.
Whom does he converse with and confide in, if so few people have attained his degree of understanding? Does it feel lonely ever?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Cameron
Looking back on all the practices that led them there, which ones do they believe are best suited to the minds of modern Western students? Why? Do they see a difference between those and the ones that are best suited to, say, students from SE Asia?
Context: my favorite teacher believes that Vipassana as taught by the Goenka org (dry insight, so-called) is great for the SE asian mind, which tends to be pretty easy-going, but not the best for the western, which tends to be a little too effortful.
AKC
Hmm anything different from others who attained it?
How do you stop daydreaming/ruminating + feel any feeling you want to feel
How do you have the courage to not feel pain

There is a series of seminar recordings of a Berkeley prof’s seminar on Heidegger’s later thought.
The prof is excellent and the environment is fun instead of stuffy.
And there are 26 of them!!
[Great and readable reinterpretation of Being and Time from Stanford Prof. Thomas Sheehan: Making Sense of Heidegger: A Paradigm Shift](http://93.174.95.29/main/9D25696ECBE109844DDB05177AD94972).
- Description: [This book] presents a radically new reading of Heidegger’s notoriously difficult oeuvre. Clearly written and rigorously grounded in the whole of Heidegger’s writings, Thomas Sheehan’s latest book argues for the strict unity of Heidegger’s thought on the basis of three theses: that his work was phenomenological from beginning to the end; that “being” refers to the meaningful presence of things in the world of human concerns; and that what makes such intelligibility possible is the existential structure of human being as the thrown-open or appropriated “clearing.”
[A poem that illustrates what Heidegger calls “inauthenticity:” T. S Eliot’s “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock](https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/poems/44212/the-love-song-of-j-alfred-prufrock)”

Ethical Dilemmas
Ethical dilemmas with no conclusive answer. Perhaps the only satisfying course of action is figure out a way to make it so we don't have to face them in reality.

The question is, what do you want to create?
You can comment.
This is the single project about which I am currently most passionate in the world ~Jacob Cole
“build quora for ideas”
[Live proto-prototype . Click on child nodes. See also: Outlinr.tk](http://outlinr.tk)
[“Hey guys! Let's use http://hackathonprojects.tk/](http://hackathonprojects.tk/) to brainstorm ideas! And actually, one of the projects I'd be most interested in is building a better web app for hackathonprojects.tk that has the following features (NEEDED: team member with d3 skills, machine learning or language processing skills):
-when you start to type in a new idea, it will auto-suggest related ideas via an interface similar to the StackOverflow tag suggestion interface. It will then allow you to click on a related idea to confirm that they are related and add a "relates to" tag, denoted by the <-> symbol (instead of #), to the idea
-create a nice interface using d3 to explore the graph -- the landscape -- the "world map" -- of all ideas

Writings on Open Gestalts and the Origins of Ideaflow: IdeaOverflow Paper & Notes

Prof. Marvin Minsky
6.868 Society of Mind
IdeaOverflow IDE (Idea Development Environment) Idea Matching Algorithm
The basis for a platform for collaborative ideation and project sharing.
Jacob Cole, Holden Lee
[A MindMap of this paper is available at http://app.wisemapping.com/c/maps/124943/public . The matching algorithm is available at https://github.com/tmad4000/IdeaOverflow_som and the web platform source code is available at https://github.com/tmad4000/ideaoverflow-hackny . A demo of the web app is available at http://pacific-tundra-3629.herokuapp.com/ or (old) http://agile-ocean-3244.herokuapp.com/](http://agile-ocean-3244.herokuapp.com/).
While the Internet currently has many tools to facilitate discussion of people and events, there is no centralized platform optimized to facilitate deep, collaborative thinking.Thus we started IdeaOverflow Idea Development Environment (IDE), an online system that facilitates collaborative cognition by, as a key feature, finding relationships between ideas inputted into a database.
First, we contend that IdeaOverflow is a relevant, modern frame for the problem of strong artificial intelligence that refines the antiquated Turing test, and makes actionable Douglas Hofstadter’s theory that analogy is the core of cognition.
[Second, we develop and apply theories of how humans make connections between ideas and use existing tools (MIT ConceptNet) to take the first steps towards implementing an idea-connection machine. We built a basic web platform, implemented two rudimentary algorithms that find conceptually related ideas, and we lay a road map forward. Even at this early stage, our algorithm often successfully makes relevant connections between ideas drawn from hackathonprojects.tk](http://hackathonprojects.tk/), a public, crowdsourced database of over 100 startup company/hackathon project ideas.
Finally, in Section 3, we apply gestalt theory in a novel way to understand how individuals come up with ideas and apply this understanding to project the process of ideation into a shared space. We demonstrate how the platform as a whole can be used to create new good ideas.
The great difficulty in pushing ideation into a shared space isthat people can only make connections between the ideas in their own minds. The ability to make these connections is a fundamental aspect of human intelligence. Talking to a friend working on a certain idea, a person can suggest related ideas and people that the collaborator should investigate. However, currently, when those ideas are stored in an external database rather than a single person’s mind, this ability to make connections is lost; static databases are not “intelligent”. As knowledge becomes increasingly distributed, we need to make connections between ideas that are not held in the mind of a single person, or even the minds within a personal network.
We propose the following task as an alternative to the Turing Test: program an AI to emulate humans’ ability to find ideas related to a given idea. Given a database of ideas and an idea within the database, the program should find the top 10 to 20 ideas related to that idea, so that the resulting list is indistinguishable from that compiled by a team of humans who have spent extensive time evaluating the list for connections. Like a human collaborator, a system that could do this would suggest related ideas and people that a user should investigate. In this way, it could have a genuinely constructive and intelligent "conversation" with its users about the ideas they are working on. Better than any individual human collaborator, it would try to find the top 10 to 20 ideas out of the database of possibly millions, whereas a human can only search on a much more limited data set.

Brainstorming for Healing Arts Equal Access Grant
http://healingartsgrant.jacobcole.net/
[A grant to help people gain equal access to important, life-changing healing arts which are sometimes expensive, and often not covered by insurance. Also to assist in care navigation by curating resources](http://chronicpain.jacobcole.net/) and via live help, and to help people with disabilities get assistance.
[Examples of such:
-PRP injections for RSI (repetitive strain injury) and arthritis
-Svaroopa.org Yoga Foundations retreat for chronic SI Joint or low back pain
-Seeing an acupuncturist for a condition well treated by TCM, e.g. ovarian cysts
-Therapeutic massage, rolfing, directional non-force chiropractic -Psychotherapy: EMDR, TRE, Somatic Therapy, IFS, breathwork , etc. Or NVC training.
-Buying Yoga Props or Healing Devices (e.g. cupping therapy](https://www.amazon.com/Silicone-Professional-Cupping-Massage-Soreness/dp/B01G6Z4QE8/ref=sr_1_15?crid=9QG2PKNL0DGR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xy-4IdMHbiPqaRoeU0ivXknsvkqkCaK2pir-Oo6YPMi3UCtBh-pQkTGB-EeiZDwom1y1HA7eltyBfDOA3oCmeq0-NB3YNr7tXWQQSzQHJWwwM59vt9R4Pnyx3FO2ylT_pl06qmftU4BeKUzblbclfnsuTyKa3zMtRMcTgiywzH35VwGg9mLHW-OMGi5Qr7qKua4RKwE34X07kGavy9xuAH69XiIddUcMjBTfGIrqWDcm85ne18Q32_BT-iQHbco6Al6TDkaU81t8sTFqN7yhX7dU6ndNFuahMvy-hiaW_Qs.50Q5Dteyv0-V86F84cX5NIG14m0gweMCJ20FVje1_xE&dib_tag=se&keywords=cupping+therapy&qid=1715639471&sprefix=cupping+therapy%2Caps%2C218&sr=8-15) cups)

PhotoQuote -- app that lets you photograph a quote in a book, then searches online to find the boundaries of the quote you're probably looking to note down, and adds the quote to your notebook. I find myself photographing quotes all the time. This is a big idea, and knowing the thread of quotes a person is interested in is a very powerful, and truly relevant advertising dataset. #relates to “site that autocompletes quotes”
site that autocompletes quotes like instadefine.com and it basically ends up letting you create a database of quotes you're interested in
and this is deep because quotes are your thoughts stated more clearly than you can state them yourselfand if you make a db of all the quotes people think of you get a huge window into their lives it #relates to the power of status message logging. example: is send myself email of quotes I like for instance "and it scared me, having a wrong thought, because it meant my mind wasn't working properly" from the curious incident of the dog in the night-time i just was rereading today and i realized that was brilliant because it relates to a concept of avidya in eastern philosophy the idea that there are some thoughts that we have that aren't true, but instead things that shouldn't bother us bother us and when we think carefully and relax we can learn to only be bothered by the right things (relatedly, there's a lot to be done with etymology) #autocomplete #intentiondb

[I'm think of working on upgrading http://hackathonprojects.tk/](http://hackathonprojects.tk/) today at MIT "Hackathon 2.0" from an ordinary Google Doc to an enhanced, idea-sharing-online collaboration system! However, this will take attempting to basically re-create Etherpad-like functionality (etherpad lite is open source, can be extended, and runs on Node.js --cj). If anybody knows the NowJS guys perhaps they would be relevant to talk to? Specifically, I want to retain as much of the current editing functionality of the Google Doc is possible but I want to:
-Create a search box that allows me to filter ideas by tags → (cont on next pg)
-create an auto fill when I start typing a hash tag to mark an idea with the tag.
-Create a really cool special "#relates-to earlierIdeaNameHere" tag that allows you to link ideas to each other naturally. Once linked, by clicking on the relates to tag, you will be able to see a pop-up or expanded div with the related ideas content. This way, threads of ideas can naturally evolve. #autocomplete #intentiondb

Adviser: Sally Susnowitz <susnowit@MIT.EDU>, Director, MIT Public Service Center
Table of Contents
I plan to travel to Tanzania in July 2013 where my mother, Lisa Cole, is an education volunteer in the US Peace Corps. On July 14-15, in a computer lab at the University of Dar es Salaam, I plan to hold the "Tanzania-MIT Hackathon” -- a midday through late evening programming event at which college and high school students who program and local developers will get together with me and work on fun computer science projects in a structured setting, like my friends and I often do at MIT. Further, we will have a live video chat link to a group of my friends at MIT and Harvard who will be doing the same, so the programmers in Tanzania can experience the wonderful and inspiring culture I am a part of in college, make new friends, and contribute to their educational and leadership experience. To plan the event, I am working with US Peace Corps IT team, the head of Tanzania’s chapter of the Free Software and Open Source Foundation for Africa, the director of the MIT Public Service Center, and the president of MIT Startlabs. The hope is to establish a model for holding “tele-hackathons” in 3rd world countries and lay the groundwork for future remote collaborative coding. Moreover, past experience indicates that broadcasting participants’ coding has the secondary effect of enabling ordinary programmers everywhere to gain a global following, and to try on the shoes of being an inspiring leader. Ultimately, we plan for our custom web platform for facilitating these events to become a permanent feature of MIT and Harvard’s online learning platform EdX.
[I request sponsorship](#h.jhqwmpes3g4h) of $5000 to up to $6600 to run the event, and recommendations for further sponsors. Top sponsors will gain naming rights to an event that’s expected to get heavy media attention in Tanzania and possibly worldwide, and all will get a chance to engage with top programmers at MIT and in Tanzania.

Brothers Karamazov
A Buddhist/Vedantic Reading of the Brothers Karamazov
Slavic 155, Dostoevsky, Harvard University
Jacob Cole
|99% complete|version 1.2 (6:30am, 1/7)
1. |99% complete| Introduce the concept of avidya as a framework for understanding human motivation and show examples of how avidya is a good model for the behavior of the characters in The Brothers Karamazov
2. |100% complete| Show how Father Zosima's interactions with characters refocus them on the present moment and reduce avidya in a way that’s fundamentally yogic.
3. |100% complete | Explain my understanding of how all computers and thinking/living things are channeling the vast computational power of the universe, how intention and motivation arise from this sunlike source of energy, and how finding a way of existence that flows with this source of energy is what is meant by being inspired by "the holy spirit."
[1.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mZu8EyhzFXEkOZlunyEKIcdhWdc1Rnv0318YOVu0570/edit#bookmark=id.ic0a52kc2oon)|99% complete| Introduce the concept of avidya as a framework for understanding human motivation and show examples of how avidya is a good model for the behavior of the characters in The Brothers Karamazov
When the 14th and current Dalai Lama spoke at MIT in October 2012 on global systems, one of the panelists asked him: "We know the kinds of changes people need to make to achieve the sustainable well-being of the world. But how do we actually get them to make these changes?" The Dalai Lama gave a surprising response: "We must tell them to be selfish." He then added that in doing so, however, we "must be wise-selfish, instead of foolish-selfish." What he implied by this was that often, when we deeply reflect on our own desires, they change, and indeed become very reasonable. Thus, in order to live lives that are both individually fulfilling and globally harmonious, we must care for ourselves, but do so with cognizance of the deeper truth of our motivations. We must be selfish in a larger sense. Generally, in Vedic philosophy, this clear perception of what one actually wants -- the truth that remains when wrong thoughts roll off, is called vidya, meaning "right knowledge" in Sanskrit. The opposite of vidya is avidya, meaning unclear perception. These concepts are the basis for a very powerful framework for understanding human behavior.
The fundamental concepts about the nature of human motivation that the Dalai Lama’s simple statement encodes within it make the forces guiding the lives of characters in The Brothers Karamazov strikingly apparent. By reading the text through the lens of Buddhist and Vedic philosophy, we can come to understand the potent cultural forces that drive them to take many seemingly irrational actions and personally relate to what they actually mean by their often metaphysical Christian philosophical claims.
Background on Avidya and Buddhist/Vedic Philosophy
The founding texts of Hinduism, the Vedas, derive their name from the Sanskrit word vidya, meaning “right knowledge.” Vidya is placed in contrast with avidya, which is “knowledge other than right knowledge,” mistaken beliefs. A closely connected concept is that of yoga. The word “yoga” comes from the Sanskrit word “yuj,” meaning to yoke, or to bring together. One meaning of yoga is to unite the mind and body, to unite thought and action. To practice yoga is to be fully present in every action. A person can be giving a lecture, but his mind can be elsewhere, perhaps thinking about what he is going to have for dinner; this is disunion. But if our thoughts are not elsewhere but here, if we take action with the whole mind, with awareness and energy -- “like we mean it” -- we can do things with sensitivity, joy, and creativity, and do them better each time. We can question why we are acting, pause, and come to a full understanding. We can reduce avidya. We can relax out of the strange rut of reactivity -- taking knee-jerk, meaningless actions -- that many of Dostoevsky’

[If I Went to MIT[1]](#ftnt1) I would…
[Contribute (at the bottom) and comment![2]](#ftnt2)
Any moment I spend at college not totally inspired I start to think about the thousands of kids who would love to have my spot. What if we as students could tap into the ideas they, and wise older people looking back wishing they could be in college now, have? Current students would get awesome inspiration/creativity piped in 24/7, and those on the outside could have dreams they really care about achieved even if they can’t be here themselves. -
At the same time those applying to college, by making clear their dreams, will gain a sense of what they actually want to do, from which can flow meaningful college essay content. Maybe they could even help current college students achieve those dreams, in the process doing something fun, productive, and worthwhile.
Economics is the art of satisfying “unlimited demands with limited resources.” But if we list out our dreams, I think we might find that in a fundamental sense at least, they aren’t necessarily all that difficult to achieve, and that the harder problem is actually finding dreams that are inspiring and worthwhile to the first place. Here’s to creating systems that enable the brushfire-fluid of inspiration to flow through the veins of the Internet! Your ideas -- responses -- will be the sparks that ignite the blaze! Contribute(at the bottom) and comment! Phrased a different way, what would you do if you were me? ~jcole (mit) and nealwu (harvard)
This doc is the beginning of an app that will suggest what you should do...it is a database of dreams and ideas, threads of inspiration, human intentions.
Which is, incidentally, the key ingredient AIs are lacking -- as human motivation is rooted in human experience.

“Tell us what activities you are presently or hope to become involved with at MIT.”
Breakdancing, cross-country ski, martial arts, rock climbing, surfing*, snowboarding, hiking, yoga, debate, acting, SIPB, high-tech entrepreneurship/Web development business, juggling/yoyoing, Rubik's cubing, blogging**, gaming, MIT hacking, playing RPG's, reading science fiction and fantasy and classic literature, cooking my way to the gustatory frontier of the universe, having late-night philosophical discussions, lucid dreaming, meeting incredible people at and around MIT, eating lunch each weekend with friends going to college elsewhere in Boston, living with my best friend of 12 years as a roommate, coding late on Saturday nights with my high school programming buddy and others I'm sure to meet, forging within the smithy of my soul the uncreated conscience of my species (sorry James Joyce), and most importantly, sleeping enough on top of this. Lucid dreaming hopefully will help with this latter goal. For the rest, I'll have to rely on Pareto's law (the idea that statistically speaking, 20% of your resources produced 80% of the yield in real economic systems).
[*surfing is without a doubt my favorite activity on the list, though ironically, the only one that's actually impractical to do in Boston. (UPDATE: founded the MIT surf club](http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/surfers)). There's nothing like it -- Dropping into a 7 foot barreling wave is like riding a standup, liquid roller coaster that I control (or if I fall it's like being a cockroach in a trash compactor).
