    Contrast Effect (Cognitive Bias #2) — over 2 years ago

    Pdeo004014

    What is it?
      The contrast effect is one of the most obvious biases we have.  It's the tendency to judge things based on the things that are near them (either in time or in space).  Things seem bigger when they're near smaller things, and vice versa.

    Why is it useful?  It's extremely useful to compare things to each other.  You can then easily find and eat the plumpest peach, pick the cutest kitten, buy the cheapest DVD player, and watch the best movie.

    How can it be harmful?  It tempts you to compare yourself to the Jones's, to feel like your iPod isn't as good anymore now that a new version came out, it makes you feel okay in your crappy job when you get a raise, and sometimes it feels as if nothing is as great as the first time you did it, heard it, saw it, or experienced it.

    Buster McLeod added an entry about change my name for a year:

    As of 10:10am on September 8th, 2006, I am officially stamped and sealed with approval as Buster Butterfield McLeod. :)

    When the judge read my new name, he started laughing. Everyone in the room including myself started laughing. It was a great birth. All new lives should begin with laughter.

    The new Buster has yet to tell a lie. I want to wait and make sure it’s a good one. The new Buster is going to taste food for the first time in about half an hour.

    It’s a clean slate… everything is new and good. Go!

    You should come to SXSW Interactive this year. That’s where I’ve seen Bill the last couple years. It’s always fun in the nerdiest way possible.

    Ever since starting work at this new place I've been noticing all these buildings with lofts in them. Today after lunch the Robot Co-op went on a short walk and shopped for lofts. Here's the one I would buy in a heartbeat, if only I had my shit together.

    About This Manifesto Ah, the — over 7 years ago

    About This Manifesto

    Ah, the chance to be blantanty self-referential, to talk about oneself unceasingly, to have inside jokes about reduntant clauses, and run-on sentences, and to actually delight in it as much as I do… this is what an about page is all about. A boot.

    Here’s my stance on about pages: Everyone Must Have One. Everyone needs an outlet to tell people why the final product isn’t as great as it was originally hoped to be, everyone needs to be able to say, well, this wasn’t my intention, you see, it was meant to be completely different.

    Here’s how the manifesto… manifested. I killed my weblog at about the same time I took a vacation and began a book. I was surprised at how little I missed the daily outpouring of ego-inspired drivel. Several times I thought, oh, I would’ve written about this, were I writing about things in my weblog, my web glo, but then when I didn’t, and the thought melted effortlessly away, like a self-cleansing napkin, it was so relieving.

    Every page on the site now will have a purpose. And within that, each page will have the ability to grow and develop as I find myself thinking about the pages more. I will return to thoughts I’ve had before and develop them instead of constantly slashing together new thoughts. Every page has a number of slots, that only I can see due to my clever passwords…. and when I fill a box, it will suddenly appear filled. Watch this, I’m going to start typing below, in the white square with the little ribbon …

    ... see, here I am. Can’t do that with blogger, can you! Wait, maybe you can, how would I know? Greymatter can surely do it, I can’t out-do the Greyster himself. Although I do have to check to see how ‘grey/gray’ is spelled everytime I use the word. I remember in elementary school when learning the spelling I thought “gray” and said, “A”, alliterated together like, “gray is spelled with an A.” Well, not here, bubs!

    So, as you can see, I can continue writing here, or move over there
