Thanks, I know I could probably get a diagnosis and treatment for it. However, to be honest I kind of like it! I think it keeps me on a different path wrt most people, so until it becomes a serious problem (financially) I’ll keep riding the waves of focus and distraction ;)

Not diagnosed, on online “tests” I score just shy of the ADHD threshold, and I find myself in this. If only I properly remembered and agreed on what I wanted to do yesterday it would be fantastic. Even if I write it down and happen to remember to check the notes, it’s almost like I was a different person yesterday, todays priorities are all new

The point is what value can the common man reasonably provide in the free market to support a family when most of white collar work is also automated?

The industrial revolution automated a lot of blue collars, AI is starting to seriously automate white collars to the point less people are needed.

They are automating the mind, there’s not much else to compete with to provide value. Which color people should pivot to?

And the horizon you see standing on the beach is just about 5km or 3 miles away!

Building muscle is a real reason

That’s almost nothing. 1 hour a week, at least in Italy, and mostly sports stuff close to cardio no weight training.

I feel good with at least 4 hours a week of bodyweight training plus some cardio.

Also italian

Yes. See Europe

Apparently not because I am fine

Every day. Now that I am in my own home I actually have a warm bath every evening, it’s a great way to end the day. I can skip one day in rare occasions but feel too uncomfortable going more than that, not because of stink or others noticing but because I just don’t feel clean

I saw them myself with my naked eyes! They look like the iss

I wonder what uncontacted tribes think about starlink

I have no inner monologue unless I switch it on consciously, which I don’t like doing as it slows down thinking by orders of magnitude. In your example, I see things like graphs, numbers, maps, make connections and see possible futures, no explicit words involved.

Edit: I also tend to “simulate” what is going to happen by conjuring up a small video of people dealing with the situation, or myself in that situation.

A decent 3d CAD and multiphysics FEM (cheap comsol) would be a good start

I still don’t understand what’s the goal of this shitstorm alienating allies and destroying the economy with crazy uncertainty.

But fake money will not save the country from ww3. A superpower needs to have an independent manufacturing base to be taken seriously, nukes deterrent is eroding.
