The List

So, here is the list! Can you feel the suspense? Probably not.

Things I want to post about (in no particular order)

What does it mean to have a balanced game? Does that mean something different for single player games than multiplayer? How can you try to balance a game?

How do games effect our cognition? Can we set them up in ways that will more likely alter someone's thinking in a certain way? If so, how can we make games that make us better thinkers?

In what ways is our perception of the world an illusion? What can we do about this?

What does it mean to create a true artificial intelligence?

How is the business world tackling the problems of cognitive biases?

Dynamical Systems. What?

Art: its changing our perspective of things. Thats pretty neat. Whats going on there?

Buddhism. Some cool ideas? Probably.

Memes. Holy shit that is some cool stuff.

TED Talks, because those are always cool

Posts from the game developers conference! (Hopefully!)

How does my typing this stuff RIGHT NOW effect the way I think?

Why the business world is weird.

My lengthy housing search that has enough twists and turns in it to be made into an epic poem. Too bad all those awesome epic poem writing dudes are long dead or else I would be all like: Hey dude who wrote beowulf, I bet you can make a cool poem about it. Make it have crazy demons and shit. And he would be like, it needs more sexy times and I would be like, I know!

Why my list has degenerated in prose the longer it gets (AND NOW IT HAS COME FULL CIRCLE! AND THEN AGAIN IN ONE LINE!)

The effect of commutes on society and the lives of those that take part in them.

How radio helps our culture. (And why CBC metro morning is excellent)

Our finitary predicament (Thanks John!)

And more, as I think of them.
