January 2023 ( Someone fed my essays into GPT to make something that could answer
<br/>
questions based on them, then asked it where good ideas come from. The
<br/>
answer was ok, but not what I would have said. This is what I would have said.) The way to get new ideas is to notice anomalies: what seems strange,
<br/>
or missing, or broken? You can see anomalies in everyday life (much
<br/>
of standup comedy is based on this), but the best place to look for
<br/>
them is at the frontiers of knowledge. Knowledge grows fractally.
<br/>
From a distance its edges look smooth, but when you learn enough
<br/>
to get close to one, you'll notice it's full of gaps. These gaps
<br/>
will seem obvious; it will seem inexplicable that no one has tried
<br/>
x or wondered about y. In the best case, exploring such gaps yields
<br/>
whole new fractal buds.
