I accidentally broke my brain reading about Nobel Prize winners last month.

There's this thing called "Janusian thinking" that basically explains why some people's minds work like magic while the rest of us think in straight lines. Named after Janus, the Roman god with two faces pointing opposite directions.

The psychologist who discovered it, Albert Rothenberg, was trying to figure out what made breakthrough thinkers different. He interviewed dozens of Nobel laureates, major artists, revolutionary scientists. What he found sounds impossible.

These people can hold two different ideas in their mind at the same time. They can explore both without switching back and forth or forcing a quick comparison. They can consider “yes” and “no” to the same question simultaneously and stay clear-headed.

Einstein too talked about this when he described his relativity breakthrough. He was imagining riding alongside a beam of light while also standing perfectly still. Both perspectives at once. Mozart said he could hear an entire symphony "all at once," every note, every contradiction, every resolution happening in a single moment of awareness.

Your average person's mind works like a courtroom. Evidence comes in, you weigh it, you reach a verdict. Case closed. But Janusian minds work more like... I don't know, like a quantum computer that can process multiple realities simultaneously until something new emerges from the overlap.

I've started noticing it in conversations. When someone can genuinely see both sides of something without needing to pick one, it drives people nuts. They want you to land somewhere definite. The ability to live in that tension space reads as wishy-washy or indecisive.

Most creative advice tells you to "think outside the box." But Janusian thinking is weirder than that. It's being inside and outside the box at the same time. It's thinking the box exists and doesn't exist simultaneously.

Which explains why truly creative people seem slightly unhinged. They think they're choosing between realities. But, they're inhabiting multiple realities at once, mining the contradictions for insights the rest of us never see.

Sadly, most of us have trained ourselves out of this ability. We've learned that holding contradictions feels unstable, so we rush toward resolution. We've been taught that changing your mind means you were wrong before, so we defend positions instead of exploring them.

But the people changing the world have kept that childlike ability to hold impossible thoughts without needing them to make sense immediately.

We just need to live in the questions everyone else is too scared to ask.

also a super old paper on this found the same pointing direction, and that it also applies to square? but it disagrees on the displacement I also observe when the triangle is rotated

[Anh @pwign]

just realized the most common example given for optically centering icons is just wrong, the centroid is too far right optically

[Anh @pwign]

i also wondered if it could be implied motion instead of orientation, like the triangle wants to move forward.

but that’s not the case for something like a raindrop where gravity would pull the perceived center down but it doesn’t.

One of my weekend projects was creating my own LLM benchmark, and it has paid off every time there’s a new model release.

(yes 5.3 codex is below haiku 4.5, no this is not a coding benchmark)

[Morten Just @mortenjust]

it got weird today, but

@neilcybart that acquisition was worth it for the fact that siri doesn't append "my weather data is provided by the weather channel" every time

[Anh @pwign]

@tylerangert On 1, i'm trying @linear mcp and list_issues just feels so limiting. I kinda wish the model can just write sql against the workspace instead.

it'd allow questions like "which projects have the most issues with no assignee?" or "what issues keep getting reopened?"
