For me point of sharing my ideas

Realizing would have to resolve certain things to make money, where first endeavored to understand money completely, found myself talking my own story thoroughly, as part of what would need to be able to do, if doing business with others. Which was useful, and now has me with a better grasp of the point of sharing my ideas for me.

And yeah, my feeling for a LONG time was that IF found some great idea could just show to experts in that area and WHOOSH!!!

Figuring they'd be excited and then I would get a LOT of guidance on what should happen next and routinely in the past would be practicing speeches, and interviews with the press.

Then would watch in consternation as experts did NOTHING like that, and so check the ideas. Oh, ok yeah is correct. Check research around, and IS this a big deal problem to solve? Oh, ok, yeah it is...so what's going on? Then I'd get upset, or frustrated, and was disappointment in that community I realized, which helped me greatly. Like am NOT a part of these communities. Am just someone who found some cool things to share. Like really emphasize am not a mathematician, and don't want to be, especially now.

Being a meta innovator means I get to range. Not stuck in a particular discipline which turns out is very important, and makes dysfunctional community behavior less potent. Still puzzling though.

Ideas do not care. Not like an idea will check with you to see to what human community you belong, you know? Discovery is.

Web does make the difference though, as actually would rather have objective evidence from third party sources that an idea draws interest from people all over the entire planet, as communities can get that wrong. Communities despite their best efforts are nowhere near as precise, unless relying on the web should add. Web authority has changed the game, and probably is necessary for a person to do what I do confidently, as otherwise, how would I know really? Web enables.

So the point of sharing ideas for me is to share something useful to others, where if there is extraordinary usefulness, expect an extraordinary response.

You figure excited people will talk something, and share with others, and most important?

Have questions about where those ideas can go.

One of the reasons I noted a sad, irony to the math things. They really don't have the option to ignore some of the things I found, if they wish to progress. And with over a decade with some things can just look and see they did not. And you wonder about decisions people make, and yeah, there are consequences.

So yeah, am more into the fun which DO feel myself, with a lot more freedom as have explained much, so there isn't that nagging suspicion that maybe I'm just missing something.

Where that freedom to just enjoy the ideas, their implications, and often now the changes can try to detect in the real world? Is a thrill like no other.

Sharing cool ideas is SO grand.

The best ideas do work. And that has so many meanings as they work in so many ways.

So yeah can better explain my story now, for business purposes. And it does amaze me how that kind of pressure can actually be helpful. That's cool to me too, because I did not understand that aspect before.

More into fun with innovations now

Was good for me to talk how with my math things have received confirmation more than once, but my problem with mathematicians is they haven't contacted the press, danced with joy, and screamed and shouted about them, like I have. Those press people too, will be like, you DO know we go to YOU, not the other way around?

But that really was back to 2004 when was most intense and as time went on and recognized the situation, realized math people just were not going to act as excited as I expected they should.

Moving on helped me tremendously, and had more adventures instead. Where now am still fascinated not just with coming up with a functional view of entertainment as way we safely control our mood, but with how rapidly those ideas may be making changes.

Like consider, one of my most massive ideas for math introduced in 2002, and now over 15 years later, math community still manages to muddle along as if it doesn't exist far as I can tell. Which to me is more amusing lately, by the way, but also sad.

While my ideas for entertainment? Now over two years old and can look at US box office and debate with myself, as witness things fit with expectations, but still, how to be sure? There is SO much complexity there actually where try to talk simply as possible for dramatic purposes and to aid communication. My ideas are much about providing a predictive framework anchored around a simple core. Regardless is fun to contemplate!

What is the difference then in this area?

My biggest results in mathematics were in esoteric areas well away from how things operate, in the real world. To me the current people in those fields have proven their irrelevance. Am sure they'd disagree, but time will tell. Like I say, not like the math will change.

Entertainment though, well that is kind of important to so many more people, on the daily, you know?

Like me!!! And still ready to jump and shout. But I no longer contact the press about my things. Have learned SO much through the years. And now?

Innovation is so much about the fun in my life. And maybe is helping add more fun, to yours.

When knowledge compels

Having ideas outside of your own areas of recognized authority is kind of fun, where all along had plans if found something to rely on that which is. So like with math? Go show to some mathematicians and that should be that, which I did. Would get recognized as correct, and then...nothing, except once where things got even weirder than just nothing.

Was not the reaction I expected.

So to recap a bit, early on when first started looking for my own math thing, which began in 1995, made a bunch of mistakes. And at FIRST talked to mathematicians then as am good at reaching out. Felt guilty then, and came across Usenet which I accessed through Google Groups where could talk math as much as I wanted. There also made mistakes as brainstormed but for a bit posters there would point out my errors, until 1999, when they refused for six months with a HUGE one.

Was so certain too that I had this great discovery, and had NOTHING. They made fun of me for six months, until I finally released emotion holding on to the desire of success, and immediately could see the mistake. Math does not care. My need to be right? My fantasies of world adulation? Worthless.

When I finally let go, promptly found myself expanding possibility with a new technique, where had invented my own mathematical discipline, and time of error? Was gone, for the most part.

Did make some more mistakes but no longer relied on others pointing out as developed better methods, learning from that six months. And eventually had something sent to math journals until one published. Then things got really weird. But yeah, for those who don't know, am a published mathematical author with ONE paper. Math journal's chief editor later tried to pull my paper, leaving an odd hole. A little bit later the entire math journal shutdown.

So yeah, have gone to the establishment authorities in mathematics, found confirmation, where just talked one so far with that paper actually. There are others, where to me things get weird.

Like got SO mad with one mathematician where went to university when he suggested, who was really polite, but who after listening to me explain in detail, he just said, ok and went home. I went home which was a four hour drive back, and got to email. And my emails got nastier and nastier and walked up the chain of the university, until they blocked me.

How? How? How could he listen, understand was correct and just then do NOTHING else regarding the result?

One mathematician took a sudden sabbatical when sent one of my results. When returned after months claimed he'd never seen it, and no was not interested in looking at it now.

Another mathematician to whom I emailed my innovative way to count prime numbers, replied such a thing as how it worked couldn't be done. And I replied, but you have it. He did not reply further.

Let's talk an entirely different area than math, where considering I think helped me. As recently finally joined the ride sharing revolution by going some place through Lyft. Where Uber is more international now so will mention for reference. And was great!

Yet why are not taxi companies embracing wholeheartedly these wonderful ideas shown, like letting people give you address on web from a smartphone? Or paying on web entirely for ride so not doing so directly with driver? (If any are I haven't noticed. But should put this aside just in case.)

Those are the big ones, right?

Instead news I've seen is a relentless battle against companies introducing such innovations though usually that is with Uber. Will note haven't seen anything with Lyft, but also they are not as big yet.

Why wouldn't taxi companies merely adopt all the innovations rapidly? Making it easier for me to get a ride, as I LOVE those features? Not so into trying to get a dispatcher on the phone. Waiting for the taxi, wondering where it is. Call back dispatcher, who is maybe more grumpy now, even if he's explaining delay. Looking out constantly till taxi arrives. Get in taxi, ask hesitantly, take credit cards? And hear, no.

And am like, huh?

People in establishment positions can find that knowledge isn't as important to them, as how they've done things.

Oh, so yeah, notice I hedge often when discussing my results, and will say usually not officially recognized, except for that one published paper or something along those lines. Or will say my ideas are not promoted properly through establishment folks or something of that nature.

But yeah, have had confirmation routinely. Just what does NOT happen after has been dramatic.

Learned to curb my enthusiasm. Ponder the situation. To me knowledge should compel experts in an area. But not like I can make another person do what I want, and really shouldn't try.

To me? The excitement should drive you.

Oh yeah, didn't give any dates. Was talking much ancient history for me, with things primarily from 2003 and 2004. But yeah, why bother people who really aren't interested? There is not much point. So mostly I just leave mathematicians alone now.

Do send them things every once in a while just so can say I did my due diligence.

These days they do not even bother replying.

Knowledge has to compel people, which requires interest, or why would they do anything with it?

Questing for truth

What I do is so much about personal motivation should be noted which motivated this post, to note. And even explaining is hard where did not even really have enough of the concepts in mind in the past, let alone getting much approval, by standard means.

Imagine you spend relentless hours day after day for YEARS working at something where part of you thinks you know why, until it gets really hard. And even when you feel you have success? There is a new wrinkle as you have to learn how to talk it to others.

That can be fun! Better to make it be. As that's the search for truth when you're making tools up as you go along, like inventing your own mathematical discipline. Or defining science, functionally. Or wow, trying to work out how much your ideas about entertainment?

Are changing--the real world.

And you get dragged along a lot, by your ideas.

Or at least I know I did. Until got too tired of that to not work harder to understand.

When your challenging reality makes you, worry might break you, and wonder how you found solid ground.

Truth becomes a word muttered, over and over. The search then becomes also to maintain sanity.

Started out one way, kind of as a lark, and figured some things out. Then found out that with the web, attention can be pulled to you, without that making much sense for some time. And without traditional external validation from establishment humans, worked hard at finding that solid ground.

So got practical. Like I needed a functional definition of mathematical proof. Of course I did, to check my math.

And learned the true power of skepticism: Don't really know I have a solid idea until try rejecting it, and tossing it away, and it does not even notice.

Ideas do not care. Best ideas CHANGE things, with or without your approval.

Figured out techniques for handling goals to try and keep up with things. And creativity? Starts getting wild. Like search: short timeline reachable goals

And web lets you know when across a world, in so many places, there are those paying attention, even when you're not sure why.

But better with them, even so abstract, than left with just your thoughts and endless questions that drive your mind. Refining, and honing skills. Searching relentlessly...for something. Truth.

The framework of process eventually becomes your way of staying just ahead, of the adventure, as questing for truth? Becomes your life's quest.

Talking refining my ideas

The back and forth of the web is extraordinary, so required, and realize don't talk it as much. Maybe because is so extraordinary and can be difficult for me to understand how it all works. But readily admit put ideas out, see what happens, and dismiss ideas or adjust as needed based on that information.

But how do I get it?

In the past started with brainstorming ideas with a hostile audience, where some would gleefully point out mistakes, where was talking math. So yeah, either it's right, or it's wrong. With no in between math is a great way to learn this process. As I realized: why would I want to keep a bad idea? So the faster could get rid of it, the better!

Those folks didn't get a clue until finally they refused to point out an error to me, and I knew process was done there. I finally figured out the problem myself--after six months. Notice? If they'd kept to the process I'd have been able to dismiss that approach six months sooner!

Now like with an idea that entertainment is about safely controlling mood, can use my global reach to check more directly. With audiences better educated they should be pickier, and also tend to jump more forcefully on things they like. Which we can study in the US box office.

There is a constant stream of data there as a weekly thing with movies coming out. So can also check for predictive certainty. Like for this upcoming week, by looking at coming films. Make guesses. Which will admit I rarely do. Well movies are just one form of entertainment. Maybe I should though eh? Guess am no longer really checking the ideas there, which noted recently rely on two primary abstractions.

Also have talked something I call mood line. That is how well an entertainment product holds the mood, and one would think learning to hold with simpler moods would be easier, like humor, or horror. Understand? Easy.

Over time, quality entertainment will be the norm across moods at a higher standard, if ideas are useful! Time will tell. So if right? Good. If wrong, would just toss the ideas. That functional approach is about wanting better.

Public wins because we get better entertainment.

Entertainment industry? Must adjust. It has no choice in the matter. If entertainment executives refuse, they bankrupt their organization. People who DO adjust can make LOTS of money. Easy.

Sounding way confident there, but realize have a couple of years now, processing data, much through the web.

These days I don't need direct feedback from people who can figure out how I do things, and hold information to keep me from evaluating ideas. With my reach I can just watch what happens, in the real world.

Simple meta process: Introduce a better idea, and expect people to choose better.

That can take some time though, so with web have other ways also where am not sure exactly how they all work. Partly that protects me from blabbing about them and having people adjust. Like how I lost six months before.

And the process is RAPID. There are times am evaluating ideas in MINUTES. At most will consider an idea for a few days before trying to MOVE ON.

With me? I don't hold on to things that do not work.

The ideas that work for me have proven themselves. And then they're like my best friends ever.
