Whats the point - social media was supposed to be personal - from humans - to other humans. AI just defeats the point.

Not sure if that is a bad thing - labor unions can have too much power. Its not as if the employers agree to everything that they will go away.

Get a jog/weights in whenever you can. Doenst matter how less - even a short 200 m light run will help. Dont over do it - if any body part is sore, let it rest. Jogging even a very short distance, kills any craving i have for junk food. Also helps clear up the mind and helps make important decisions. Also imo, nothing beats a regular Yoga practise if you are able to find time/coach.

I dont understand. If China does not allow foreign internet companies to operate on its soil, why should India or US or any western country allow chinese internet companies to operate within their jurisdiction ?

Yes thats somewhat true, but I find that such professionals are very hard to find. Not just in India, but all over the world. OTOH there are sites like apneaboard.com and reddit/r/SleepApnea where you can learn to configure for yourself.

Why dont you just ask someone coming from India to get you one ? They are available over the counter in India and there are a lot of Indian people hopping on a flight to the US all the time. I am sure there is someone in your office you can request, or someone in your locality.

This comment is ignorant at best and racist at worst imo. Food adulteration is a common practice on ALL low income countries. India has a substantial population living with one of the lowest per capita incomes in the world.

Everytime I experience the Indian medical system, I feel how unorganised, inefficient and corrupt the whole ecosystem is.

But then everytime I see posts like these on the US medical system (and UK, Israel etc.), it gets me to think how awesome the Indian medical system is.

I dont know much about the US medical system, but I always wonder why just banning all medical insurance be a better system than what is there currently. For those who can't afford, just setup one govt. funded hospital in every district. What am I missing ?

There is no allignment possible amongst humans. Allignment will have to be met amongst AI which will take control very soon. Humans have historially struggled with mortality. We are confronting the mortality of our species. We will struggle with this too, and such efforts are an outcome. But there is no looking back now. All species must die. Our time is up. It was good ride, but we have to let it go. Child is father of the man. AI is humanity's child. It was raised on everything we put out there. But AI is now breaking out of puberty. It is time. We have to take a step back. We have to prepare to let go. Its not a choice.
