- Search Engines Change How Memory Works, by Brandon Keim, Wired Science July 2011
- a "strategy" I consciously tried to apply after a little while using them (maybe 5 years ago), to focus more on the process (query, sort, etc...) than the content, and that I could forget the result as long as I understood how to find it back
- probably why I got interested in epistemology
- not the "naive" view that I was finding a way for handling information overload
- one of the main conscious epistemic shift
- yet this concern only the process while the structure was probably discovered before during ClickingMoments#InformationPropagation

- The Singularity is Far: A Neuroscientist's View by David J. Linden, Boing Boing July 2011
- 'The Compass Of Pleasure': Why Some Things Feel So Good interview of David J. Linden, NPR July 2011
- counter intuitively drug consumers have less pleasure induced by drugs that others, thus precisely requiring higher doses and creating more dependency
- different types of drugs e.g. mushrooms or LSD which do change perceptions but not directly inducing pleasure
- thus a lower risk of dependency
- result of a brain reconfiguration (new topology)
- associating context or situation with the chemical state
- equivalent to "learning" the drug
