Select a single person in histogram

[toomim]

Can you help get the "clicking on a single user" part of histogram into master? That's the most important.

It shouldn't just expand the person's head in-place. That obscures everything nearby, and you can't explore his neighbors, which is a common task when browsing the histogram. It should pop up an expanded picture up above, like 100 pixels to the north, along with the user's name.

When you select a person, everybody else should turn grey. Don't just use opacity; that's not a strong indicator of selection unless you combine it with a greyscale/color difference.

With greyscale + opacity + big circle, we shouldn't need any other indicator of selection like yellow borders.

Let's get this into master and then we can finish the physics simulation and region selection codes later.

I am your partner of 7 (?) years telling you how I feel. Only I have access to my feelings. You can only infer how I feel. My experience of my feelings is ground truth about my feelings. It is the reality of my feelings. We should prioritize this evidence when making inferences about my feelings.

However, you are prioritizing your inferences ABOVE this ground truth: I am telling you that I have no aversion to resolving differences collaboratively and you choose not to believe it, because it contradicts your inferences.

So I'm hearing that you don't believe my word. From your perspective, I must either be (a) dishonest, lying to you about my feelings or (b) mentally broken, and cannot understand myself even though I think I can.

Do you think I am lying to you, or mentally broken? Either of these situations would be a much bigger problem than anything we've discussed here.

I don't think you're lying that you hold resolving differences collaboratively as an ideal when confronted with it abstractly and in isolation.

Your behaviors, however, are inconsistent with those ideals. I cannot reconcile your behaviors with your expressed collaborative ideal. This is why I cannot adjust my view at this time. When I try to understand your behaviors, you say it is irrelevant.

I do suspect that you have other ideals that overwhelmed your collaborative ideals in practice here. I can speculate on those other ideals, but I'll withhold doing so unless you ask about them. If you do hold such conflicting ideals, it might point to "mentally broken".

I do think this is a major issue. And I tried to articulate it's importance: https://github.com/tkriplean/ConsiderIt/issues/46#issuecomment-71511445

Maybe you were reading that comment narrowly?

[toomim]

We aren't talking about abstract ideals. I'm telling you my real concrete feelings. We are talking about whether I wanted to collaborate in a real situation. You said I did not want to. I am telling you I've had no aversion to collaboration, in the real concrete situation of resolving our differences on the histogram branch.

In fact, I'll take it one step further. I actually wanted to collaboratively resolve our differences on the histogram branch.

Do you think I am lying to you, or mentally broken?

[tkriplean]

If you think your behaviors in this situation are consistent with a desire to collaboratively resolve our differences with the histogram branch, then I think you are mentally broken.

[toomim]

That's not the question either.

I never said that "my behaviors are consistent with a desire to..." — I said that I wanted to collaboratively resolve our differences.

When I say that, do you think I am lying to you, or mentally broken?

[tkriplean]

I think you're lying to yourself, which means mentally broken.

I don't think you purposely lie to me about anything Mike.

[toomim]

You don't trust me. You don't trust my word. No wonder it's so difficult to communicate with you.

[tkriplean]

Here, let's return to the conflict statement. Let's experimentally fill it out differently.

• Travis wants Mike to collaborate with him
• Mike does not care about progressing the histogram branch
• Travis wants to resolve the difference collaboratively, Mike does too
• Mike [something that causes a conflict]

[tkriplean]

No I don't trust your word.

You don't trust mine either.

[toomim]

I actually trust you when you tell me your feelings and experience.

[tkriplean]

Trust is the basis of collaboration.

I do think there is an integrity gap in your words.

I mentioned it to you earlier regarding emailing candidates. That is a different situation, but another example of this trust issue. I can name other cases if you wish.

How do you want to proceed?

[toomim]

I don't know. I'm going to think about it for a while.
