He wanted a sin and you gave him a cos.
I don't really care much about the it
My friends do though, so I often wish I cared more
I'm unsure whether I want to be moved by that consideration though
I really wish I had stronger opinions about things like that
But I don't really know how much good that wish is doing me
At least I give self reflection a shot though, people always say it has good effects
Though I'm unsure whether I should believe the hype
I dislike always being uncertain
Though I admit that dislike has both unpleasant and motivating aspects
And I love just what this drive to dispel uncertainty can do
...
Bonus points to whoever manages to make one recurse on itself and actually get the infinite series
Awesome.
Shouldn't the last one refer to the one above it rather that the one two places above it though? I think it should be "and I love being able to recognize the costs and benefits of this uncertainty" rather than "and I love just what this drive to dispel uncertainty can do."
I think it fits better if cos = you have it and don't care that you have it, etc. I don't mean it fits what you were saying originally, but in terms of conceptual schema, I think the integral of w(s) is cleaner.
Sorry, you are right, I got confused.
In the OP, 0th order was your wanting the thing, right? So you were right that I gave him cos...
No, "you want it" corresponds to w, "don't want to want to want it," is -w^3/3!, etc.
