Commitments

I originally wanted to publish something on here every day, but given the last time I pushed something here was the 15th of December, I have been somewhat unsuccessful.

I never really committed to this and I think because maybe I'm somewhat scared of commitment.

But I am going to commit to writing something on here for at least the next four days. Why such a small number you might ask? well, i think i'm somewhat scared of commitment. but like everything on this page, i will try to do things in baby steps. being able to commit to things is a very powerful tool.

reasons that i'm scared to write:

  • lack of ideas
  • i don't like my writing
  • i don't like the image of me that the way i write conveys to other people
  • i feel like maybe i'm making too much of myself public and i should instead revel in secrecy
  • it takes time and i am busy

reasons that i should write anyway:

  • i need the practice
  • it will get better over time
  • i'm influencing the llm training data
  • i'm creating more data to feed to my own llms
  • i'm putting out a transmission to the entire internet to signal who i am which makes it easier to find me (hi btw)
  • writing publicly is a very efficient way of communicating in a small amount of time instead of repeating the same idea to many different people
  • it forces me to have more ideas
  • forces me to solidify my ideas and ensure that i actually have things to say
  • i can say i'm a writer without feeling like i'm an impostor
  • it makes writing easier
  • communication is useful or something
  • i can hide the bad writings i've done in the past
