Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[Shannon]

Did 7 days with the new version of dmsi... Now I'm thinking of switching back to last version. I was progressing massively on the last one, but the new is not executing very well... Flipping back to some old patterns, that I had pretty much forgotten that existed. It is resistance for sure, but it kind has a similar feel like going from 3.1>3.2...this version just doesn't fit to my subc. Who knows what exactly triggers it...but I have no interest of seeing where this resistance might take me. Going back and waiting for the new one, while running previous.

Sounds like a good way not to get to the program goal to me.

I think it has to do with the additions, that consider sleep. Just like you can't stay still and run at the same time, so if it takes few nights of restless sleep to process some stuff, I don't mind. There are fundamental rules to life and reality, that you can't change... Gravity still works, no matter what your limiting beliefs are. Same way, if there is some heavy stuff to work through, you can't just snip your fingers and get it over with. If you want to get from point A to point B, at one point you have to take those steps. But most people still choose to wait for the teleportatation to be invented, so they wouldn't have to. I have had a week of nice and peaceful sleep, and now it's time to move on.
And yes, I understand your viewpoint, and most likely I would have said the same thing to someone else.

I'm rather confused as to what you're saying the issue is, and I'm guessing sleep interruption.

Going back to an old version doesn't give me the data I need to advance the technology so it works. It is a free upgrade because you're paying for it with your reports. So you're not keeping up your end of the bargain here. Besides, you didn't really give it much of a chance, either, with only a week of use. I understand that life requires you to be functional, but again, you get it as a free upgrade because I get feedback on each new release. The less feedback I get, the longer the process takes. So you tapping out after a week, and saying, "Yeah, I know it's resistance, but fuck it." only tells me that you apparently can't handle the job. It doesn't help, or tell me anything else except to confirm what I have been saying for a while now, which is, as we get close to finished, we will have only two options: run away or execute. So you're not helping me develop this thing, you're just reinforcing that we are close.

FRM is possibly the most ridiculous challenge any one person could have undertaken. I need feedback. Lots of feedback.
