...l, they'll tend to converge. From default divergence to default convergence. An infinite difference. Be careful though… rubber bands can only stretch so far! If the segments go too strongly in different directions, they can snap the band and no long...
...to close is going from default-divergent to default-convergent. The shift is an infinite difference that in the moment feels mundane. Once it's default-convergent, tightening is a simple matter of hill-climbing.
...long-term. Default-cohering, vs default-decohering. A small distinction with an infinite difference.
...come from your gut. Feeling what you want. Automatic, cheap, high precision. An infinite difference that is impossible to see but that changes everything.
...r entity that you feel ownership and infinite alignment with. That's one of the infinite differences between before being a parent and after being a parent. Before being a parent it's hard to imagine ever willinging picking up poop even for your own...
... to worry about the halting problem. When you pass a critical point is often an infinite difference, but something that doesn't feel like anything at all in the moment.
Concave systems are auto-cohering Convex systems are auto-decohering. An infinite difference. The difference cannot be seen from a static snapshot. It can only be seen from the system in motion. Even then you have to carefully study the flow ...
...heels lift off the ground, nothing feels like it changed that much. But it's an infinite difference.
...he ocean, fighting the current. Default converging is like surfing the wave. An infinite difference.
... have nothing for their use case, and now they have something. That's an almost infinite difference. The challenge, and the reason that this didn't actually happen in 2004 when Clay wrote the original essay, is that building software requires talkin...
