Calling the caste system a higher form of social organization compared to monogamy couldn’t make me disagree with your perspective more. Additionally I share Huxley’s belief and preference for a pastoral lifestyle and the odiousness of a fe

You need to know none of those things to be a cop in the US. Furthermore it’s one of the safer jobs with pizza delivery men getting killed or injured more often than cops.

For me, the visualization is a mix of still frames, caricatures and abstractions.

I couldn’t describe this any better. Especially the visual chunking and abstraction.

Can you close your eyes and visualize a red, three dimensional star rotating?

I doubt it’s either of those. I can recognize a person at a distance but ask me to describe if their nose bridge is wider or narrower and I literally wouldn’t be able to tell you unless it’s significantly exaggerated.

I’ve had this exercise with my wife and I couldn’t even describe her nose, mouth, forehead or ears even though I see her everyday.

I rarely see these discussions encompass minority populations. With an astounding amount of tech work being done by minority/immigrant populations, I always find it’s a voice that’s missing.

Anecdotally it seems to work well even if I’ve had only 5-6 hours of sleep that night.

Does anyone else have issues with identifying and describing facial features. I have no problems recognizing people, but there’s no way I can verbalize them on a specific features basis. What kind of disorder do I have?

The police in the US are atrocious. It’s an easy problem to solve. Dissolve the only union that rightfully needs to be dissolved— the police union. Put cops on practitioners insurance like nurses and back that up with always on cameras that

What really worked for me is having a full glass of water on my bed stand. Wake up and drink the entire glass. It really works immediately for me.

On a total tangent, in my opinion many countries in Africa would benefit from a benevolent dictator like Paul. Unfortunately getting a truly benevolent dictator seems to be a one in a million possibility.

The onus is somewhat shared. In recent times there has been a massive over correction leading to something akin to the position that the woman can never be wrong. Getting assaulted is bad but if that was preceded by taunting and instigation

It’s a fine balance that doesn’t work well with hyperbolic extremes like you’re painting. We don’t let people buy materials to make bombs but we don’t prevent farmers from buying fertilizer either. The answer is somewhere in between.

I agree with you. We need gatekeepers, not unsubstantiated nonsense from the lowest common denominator.

Classifying reigning in massive disinformation campaigns and divisive propaganda as censorship is disingenuous at best.

How is that objective? It’s asking a person to assign a score on very subjective questions.

I’ve had one meal a day for years. We just eat around 7p and I have a milky, unsweetened coffee in the mornings. After a while you don’t even feel the urge to eat lunch anymore so there’s no chance of “falling of the wagon” as another GP ha

I think organization along financial lines is much more egalitarian. It’s fungible and people can make changes in their lifetime to move between social classes. You’re proposing racially based zones in the world where everyone of a single r
