Draft: Meditation and World Model Simplification
Apr 11, 2026
- meditation as reduction of spaghetti code, keeping ~same predicitons but reducing complexity, literally doing the same thing with less nand gates, less internal resistance
- makes sense that doing the same thing with less internal struggle feels better tbh
- you can also kind of cheese it, by becomign a monk! you have a simpler more limited life so you can have a simpler world model because you have a simpler life. works but probably what most people want is to more skilfully/effective/efficiently/simply relate to their current life.
- and you can also kind of do the opposite, make your world model extra complex, by scrolling twitter and reels – you see so much information so fast that it’s ~impossible to make sense of without taking on technical debt, writing mental spaghetti code, complicating your model of reality (to not much benefit, other than being able to better make sense of the reels!
