from experience, i seem incapable of doing more than one mathematical task per day. today affirms this.
as discussed in an earlier post, it would therefore be incredibly convenient to have the superpowers of jamιe madrοx, the multιple man: i could work on all sorts of research problems simultaneously, even learn new things ..
[from the wiki] Specific special skills accumulated through his vast experience include picking locks, some proficiency in Shaolin Kung Fu, handgun training, multiple languages including Russian and Hawaiian, and playing-card throwing. Along the way, he and/or his duplicates participated in an Olympic gymnastics team and apparently became a licensed attorney.
it would have been incredibly useful, this past week, to have had
* one self prepare the talk,
* a few others listen to it and give criticism,
* several others writing the papers i've been meaning to write,
* one or two others reading papers i've been meaning to read,
* and others working on research problems.
then again, this could backfire. already i'm prone to absent-mindedness, and this could be more trouble than it's worth!
[from the wiki] As a consequence of splitting into multiple selves, Jamιe has accumulated a vast wealth of knowledge and experience, along with some confusion over which Jamιe did what. For example, although he says his duplicates have had active sex lives, he is not sure whether the main Jamιe ever has. Because of the infinite nature of his powers, his duplicates can potentially represent a variety of aspects of his character and to varying extents
.. The side effect of excessive withdrawal from absorbing the duplicates leads him to gain their new personalities as well, which gives him a form of multiple personality disorder, in which any new dupes may spontaneously generate any individual personality aspect of Jamιe Prime, making them unpredicatable, as they more often than not disobey his orders or manifest as personalities that are too volatile or meek.
so probably it's best just to do one thing a day and be happy that i remember doing it! \-:
