Heuristics

A list of fallback ways of life. Here's why I made this page.

Life

• If your gut tells you something isn’t right, listen to it.
• Buy cheap first and if it doesn’t work out, buy the best next time (unless quality and efficiency are especially important or it could impact another person).
• If an unknown number calls, ignore it unless you are expecting a call that you don’t already know the number of. If it’s important, they’ll leave a message and you can get back to them.
• Look for multiple sources to back up any claim. You can’t be too informed in most cases.

Blogging

• Write and publish first, edit later.

Music

• If you don’t know what to listen to, listen to Simple Things by Zero 7 and go from there.

Food & drink

• If you’re in a new place and don’t know what to eat, pick somewheree you’ve eaten before. If you’re in a place you go often, try somewhere new.
• If you can’t decide what to eat at home, pick two things and flip a coin. Go with the final decision or opt for the Freudian choice.
