Skiing is believing

Image
  There are many memes out there about skiing, and let me tell you, they are all true . Skiing is one of those things that you either go all in, or you stay the hell away from, there is rarely a mid ground. Granted, it has a steep learning curve, but once you get over the first mental wall, the fun quadruples every time you go on the slopes. A geek (like me) might say that the learning curve is logarithmic and the fun curve is exponential, and they intersect in the best spot, also known as a weekend skier comfort zone . Its difficult to explain the level of joy skiing brings, if one hasn't tried it. It's like wanting to cry and laugh at the same time. It is sensory overload, you are scared and excited, hot and cold, happy and nervous at the same time. Its a feeling like no other. Its the only winter activity for adults that brings the inner child out. While skiing, it's socially acceptable to roll in the snow, otherwise it's awkward. Joke aside, skiing is a good winter ...

Its not a bug, its a feature

  I was always a little odd kid, compared to the rest of the children in my surrounding, that is. When all the kids were chasing the empty can they found on the street pretending to play "football", I was looking at how that exact can bounces of the curb, admiring the symmetry of the collision angles. I was fascinated by the intricacies of the bouncing trajectories, from the simple act of playing marbles to the mesmerizing chaos that unfolds as balls disperse across pool tables.  Long story short, I was the strange kid in the bunch. That impostor syndrome persisted in me for a long time through high school and college, just the topics changed. I was always considering it a bug, part of my non-fitting-in character.  What I realized growing up, was that a small perception shift can change my bugs into features. The paradigm shift was: What if I can use a given peculiar quirk of mine into a skill I can get a value from. I don't mean like business point value, I mean more lik...

She likes me, she likes me not

  These days drawing attention to one self has become increasingly more difficult. Further more catching the attention of a given person during scrolling through his/her feed is even harder. But that matters right? I mean popularity algorithms care about engagement, which makes sense all things considered, more audience means more ads, ergo more sells, ergo more profit, its Business 101. Don't get me wrong I am all for it, after all, money make the world go round.  So measuring popularity and consequently value based on engagement or likes this way makes sense, right? At least for online presence and influence, correct?  Well, take a look at another common use case. The same logic above applies in public polls and voting. The best voted party or option, is not the best one, it is just most voted. And since each vote counts the same, majority wins, more like a quantity over quality. But then how to make the voting/liking/subscribing fair? Furthermore if you post something ...
