Think you have a good memory? Think again 🙃

I give you 10 types of memory bias:

1) Rosy retrospection bias = we tend to remember the past as better than it was
2) Consistency bias = we incorrectly remember our past self as similar to our present self (self-image bias)

3) Mood-congruent memory bias = we better recall memories consistent with our current mood
4) Hindsight bias = we consider past events as being predictable (the knew-it-all-along bias)
5) Egocentric bias = we recall the past in a self-serving way (this happened to ME)

6) Availability bias = we think that memories that come readily to mind are more representative
7) Recency effect = we best remember the most recent information
8) Choice-supportive bias = we remember the options we chose as better than rejected options

@threadapalooza

Joining @threadapalooza - a challenge to write 100 tweets about anything. My topic is what I'll vaguely call "interconnected patterns" and our philosophical & scientific quest for discovering the underlying code for reality. No idea where I'm going with this so buckle up! (1/100)

A note before I get started: if that doesn't sound interesting, you can mute this thread by clicking on the three dots in the top right corner of the tweet and selecting "mute this conversation" - no hard feelings, I won't even know! (2/100)

To me, physics is the study of the grammar of reality - all about uncovering the grammatical rules governing the language of the world. Many are dreaming of a "theory of everything", but trying to discover these underlying patterns is not new - see sacred geometry (3/100)

@ness_labs

Yay - we are now 1500 members in the @ness_labs community! I've been learning so much and meeting such fantastic people during the past few months 🙏

Not that I'm an expert, but here are some thoughts if you want to build a community...

(1) Take it slow

Fast growth can be detrimental to building a community. Especially at the beginning, focus on quality, not quantity. It's easier to foster a sense of community when you attract few like-minded people (vs lots of random folks)

(2) Listen, listen, listen

Many of the most popular aspects of the Ness Labs community today were suggested by members, e.g. the support groups, the recordings & shared resources. Proactively ask for feedback & be grateful when you get it - it truly is a gift

Want to come up with new ideas? Try the innovation equation.

1. Subtraction: Is there anything you can remove from the equation?

Sony removed the recording function to launch a new product: the Walkman.

Apple got rid of the headphone jack to create the AirPods.

🧵

2. Multiplication: Is there any element you can multiply?

Retina screens are the result of a multiplication of the number of pixels, leading to increased sharpness.

Dropbox stayed competitive by increasing storage space for their users over the years.

3. Division: Can you divide a problem or product into smaller elements and reorganise them?

Divide a laptop and extract the screen to get a tablet.

Divide a fridge and extract a drawer to get a cooling drawer.

Divide food into its nutrients to get nutritional supplements.

@visakanv

So @visakanv asked me to do a book thread of this one, I just started reading it tonight and I'm very excited 🗺️

First, it's impossible not to think of phrenology when you see the cover - and then when you Google phrenology you'll find that exact image

Phrenology was a scam, who would use an illustration of a well known scam as their book cover? Now I'm even more curious 👀

If you've never heard about it, phrenology was a pseudoscience where doctors (?) would pretend to guess your psychological attributes based on the shape of your skull - e.g. "oh I can feel a bump behind your ear you must have anger issues"
