Dot ↔ Extension. - NISHIO Hirokazu's Scrapbox (Auto-translated from Japanese)

Dot ↔ Extension.

Connecting the Dots in the sense of "dots" and "extension of a straight line" in the sense of "action as an extension of the past" are opposing concepts

We hit dots that are not connected to anything at this point in time, and when we look back over time, we find the connection.

Extend the extension from the present time and act on the extension.

This is connected first, no connection is made later.

There is a positive meaning to "[making a leap (e.g. in logic)" that is not connected to the current context.
