So basically ChatGPT has zero executive function and needs a human to plan HOW it uses its "cognitive" capacity in order to get anything right.

I've never had a doctor tell me what drugs are safe or unsafe to take with others, almost never had a doctor ask what drugs I already take. You grossly overestimate healthcare providers, and there are many things much more dangerous th

Sounds like a high risk pathway to target. That said, there might be something to it- I wonder if the decrease in average human body temperature over the last several decades correlates with the increases in life expectancy?

Most gene editing isn't tweaking the regulation of genes, nor is it inserting or removing genes, but rather swapping them out for near-identical copies that have slight differences such as not being associated with chronic illness, whi

This is sort of what I've been dreading myself, that my loss of dreams has been the consequence of a monotone, miserable life.

There are some interesting papers demonstrating reliable improvement in performance in ADHD and otherwise poorly performing people when listening to both noise and binaural beats, some publications reporting effect sizes comparable to stimu

No it didn't, not for the basic goods. Nobody is drinking "all available productivity growth" worth of water, eating the equivalent of food, buying house after house, or compulsively commuting. About luxury goods, don't

If so, then so is school- it's literally children being forced to hard mental work against their will, justification irregardless.

Oh, really? Because I'm pretty sure we didn't strictly need that much labor for essential jobs even before any meaningful automation.
461.
by Llamamoe 4y ago
This is a naive take. People doing those jobs right now are definitely not paid much, they just have no freedom, for many it's either an abysmal job or homelessness. And you speak of unfair practices as though they're not the very

As long as we live in a system where the rich intrinsically have more power and the incentive to use it to squeeze more wealth out of others, this will be at best playing whack-a-mole and at worst a matter of time as corruption and manipula

So far I've been met with specialists blaming it all on stress, despite the fact that I'm a remarkably calm person outside the flares(they make me feel abysmal). I'm not able to single out any specific triggers, and at my cur

I do want one actually, yeah. Much of my decline started after heavy antibiotics a few years back, and I've experienced temporary relief of some symptoms from antibiotics last year, but then they came back with a vengeance. I'll b

There definitely is. Partially managed sleep disordered breathing is one, whatever's up with my gut is two, but healthcare where I live sucks. I wait for months just to be treated dismissively and told I need a shrink for daring to thi

Already doing all of these, I've even reverse engineered a custom, a bit more effective algorithm into my PAP :-P But thank you for the suggestions.

This is so weird to me. My life has gone bad, and I've spent close to a decade in social isolation, often many months at a time. While I'm definitely not fine, it's weird to read about how badly much shorter and less intense

Okay, and... so what? Other than complete lack of sustainability and distribution, humanity has been capable of providing the necessities for every human on earth for a long time now. What use is there in long shot startups that could possi

So the elderly, impaired, less intelligent people just straight up don't deserve to survive in our world?

Depends on what exactly is going on with a given person's airways. Expansion is the best treatment for poor nasal breathing, but if you're got a narrow pharynx going on also, you probably need that MMA.

It makes me sad too, but it just is what it is. I've had individual days of the sun shining through the clouds, but in the end, the trajectory of my life is always downwards. It doesn't matter what I tried. I don't have enoug

My dude, Alfaro charges prices that are vastly out of reach of anyone not made of money, and I'm at a point where making Dr appointments in the first place, nevermind coordinating travel, pushes me to my limits. I can probably get it d

They do, yes. There's a substantial body of research showing that soft diets lead to undersize jaws in a number of mammals, humans are just semi-unique in that our airways are very soft and floppy and it doesn't take much for coll

Traditional OSA as found in elderly/obese people yes. But a lot of young people are still on the UARS side of symptom presentation even when they cross the threshold for OSA.

The problem with CPAP is that it prevents full airway collapse and apneas very effectively, but often just converts them into subtler collapse ending with arousals. It also introduces its own disruption through expiratory resistance, reduci

I actually have a write-up on a pet theory that a substantial proportion of ADHD cases are likely undiagnosed non-apneic sleep disordered breathing: https://gist.github.com/Asmageddon/4a952260c0fc9875f477d6813...
