Would have been great for me because at the age of fifteen I lost complete interest in school grades. Just interested in learning.

I am not paranoid. Those symptoms have cause what could be apparented to psychosis at times, when it spiked up beyond tolerable. I am not going to expose my full case but when you have correlated neurological symptoms such as abnormal fasciculations and hearing loss in one ear amongst other things, sudden bouts of memory loss and difficulty focusing (which is abnormal for me), adding to this that one's usual hyperphantasia seems weirdly encumbered, all of which is not taken into account nor really appropriately studied... there is an issue.

This is pretty simple and clear. You on the other hand, that you establish a diagnosis off of a mere post is a strange occurence in my opinion. :)

So no. Paranoia never been one of the diagnosis I have had by the way.

Now if you know about neuro transmission, you'd know that information is transported that way. Whether via dopamine or glutamate for instance.

I don't see how being science-based is being plagued with paranoia. There are people who, given the same symptoms, would believe they are being harassed by demons... Not my case. Occam's razor.

Not quite sure what you are talking about.

Thanks for the "French" song, not my type of music but how would you know that I would understand ;) ?

Not the one that lets you ask this kind of question, apparently. ;)

No but I have had a condition that they don't seem to diagnose properly. Not sure it is a condition for sure but I have felt the brunt and went through the system to try to get it resolved with not much success.

However, the symptoms, that I have explained in details and that they keep minimizing somehow, are plural and overlap with many.

Also you should read the science to understand how they try to address the symptoms (they are still clueless about the causes at the clinical level, not quite sure about private research).

Could also be a bout of havana syndrom, for all I know. It is not dissimilar either. The brain just processes information via neurotransimission. Brain signals could already be decoded two decades ago. Who knows what people have invented since...

They are already trying to make them outlawed... I don't like criticizing the country but the national motto's first word, there are making it nothing but a joke. Apparently you are only free to hate now, and that's if you hate the right kind of people... Bolstered by fascists united worldwide. A shame.

From experience, all mental illnesses are related and stem from change in the activation of the dopaminergic circuitry, likely at the nucleus accumbens level. It can be regulated consciously but only partially. Interoception via meditation.

Alternatively, it can be chemically shutdown/reset, the basic principle of neuroleptics. That is a coarser action though. When things hit the fan. Not nearly as much as the usual recommendations from clinicians.

For ADHD, they prescribe stimulants which make sense if we consider that the brain is searching for triggers of dopamine.

Some other conditions seem to require the opposite but this has a lot of side effects.

I think that in fact, the dopamine modulation require more fine grained handling and this is two sides of a same coin.

With allegations that are ridiculous given that everything is open source. If you are afraid of data exfiltration, just create a better sandbox.

How would that even make any sense for an open source project that people expect goodwill from?

Doesn't have to be the reader, in general "you" would not know who it refers to specifically because it really mean anyone sharing the same experience. (see what I tried to do here?) One would probably have encountered those constructions while reading though ;). Never heard 'One' in colloquial English.

It is strange, because in a sense, when you start learning math, you never explore, you are being taught. Now mathematicians were able to exercise curiosity. That is going to change. Back to the ranks of eternal learners if you will. The fun was in the research. Now I think it will leave the door open toward more Applied math. What can people do with all the discoveries. The curiosity will be there. I think it is better that way. It will also put a cap on abstractions that overlaps. In essence, AI is less likely to create new theories, coin new terminology, etc. But it is better suited to recognize emerging patterns. That will probably simplify mathematics. Unless the domain of abstraction is infinite and with each new abstraction comes its own results but I doubt it. Who knows though...

I am simply not purchasing a .si domain.

If really a new expression need to be coined, that should be something that means derived Intelligence/type II Intelligence etc. What is intelligence anyway?

It's just a weird attempt at cementing some legacy. The rest of the world is not going to go along with it.

Then again, flattering thinking machines is not too bad, ... just in case :D

oh that matches. Current admin must feel guilty/wary of something. "Best defense is attack" type of reasoning. There is no reason otherwise.

depends on market conditions and visibility on future revenue. And current balance sheet, cost of debt vs cost of equity.

I had read somewhere that it could allow the creation of cures that would not trigger the immune system, since they would use chirality to hide, so to speak.
