With that said I just watched Timothy Nguyen's video about Eric Weinstein this weekend and it just confirmed everything I suspected about Eric. I didn't realize he even put in his paper he is not a physicist but an "entertainer".
I think Eric gained traction and brought Brett in on this. They are doing a new form of science fiction IMO. It doesn't really work though if they break character.
The occam's razor between two brothers who have had revolutionary ideas in physics, economics and biology all shelved by an establishment vs two brothers who are podcasters creating content is pretty straight forward.
I am not sure restricting the age like a rated R movie is the worst thing with what they are doing.
The country?
This chart from the Fed is just astounding. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYFSD
Everyone I know that has been into powerlifting for a long time including myself is paying the price with disc herniation, bad knees, etc.
We really need gyms to get belt squat machines or pit sharks so people stop balancing barbells on their spine with huge weights and move up and down. Kind of obvious what is going to happen over time.
Lifting heavier weights than you have previously is super addictive.
I don't think it really helps my mood nearly as much as hard conditioning or even long walks but I don't really know what it is like to not lift at this point.
I stopped using social media because I was sick of having this critic in my brain constantly judging if an experience is worth posting on social media.
Of course this is a huge trade off with not knowing what my elderly neighbor at a cottage I never go to had for lunch.
I just don't care enough to become a linux missionary/priest though and try to get people to switch. I can't make the horse drink the water.
KDE Neon in 2021 on SSD takes me about 15 min to reinstall completely with no configuration.Everything just works. It is easier than Windows.
I barely even know any unix commands beyond ls after using some form of KDE plasma for around 4 years now. Everything has just worked for a long time now.
A legit drone racing pilot is incredible at this also so it is not like there is a ton of meat on the bone to pick at.
It is cool from the perspective of racing drones even if less impressive from the perspective of AGI or something.
I am fully vaccinated, if you offer me a booster I will take it. If you offer me whatever, I will take it.
At that point I have done all I can do. If someone wants to stay in a bunker because things are beyond their risk preference then they should not be forced out of the bunker.
Forcing me back in a bunker though being fully vaccinated is absolute bullshit if anyone can get vaccinated.
I think that attack is foolish really. There are all kinds of crazy prices being paid for collectables right now.
Are we looking to go back to medieval times that skepticism is not tolerated and have some digital version of the Pope that acts as the fact checker on reality?
The language in the headline sounds straight from religion.
There has to be some threshold but I just don't understand how this threshold hasn't been crossed for more people.
I don't want to see Twitter legislated or controlled. The counter balance and equilibrium should be doing crazy things causes a massive loss of users so crazy things do not happen. Twitter is not a public utility like electricity or drinking water. You actually need to drink water.
To me, his thoughts on the weather are some of his most interesting things to read just from the fact even someone with the brain power of Von Neuman could be utterly and completely wrong.
It is the ultimate lesson in the fallibility of what you believe to be true.
Once you are on the job though you quickly realize what a terrible job it is and after a time leverage it into something else.
Black women in the US are what about 7% of the population?
So most likely any random HR interview is with a younger white woman.
