While the data on phonics suggests it works well, I feel like I may have benefited from an alternative method (my school taught phonics growing up). I personally do not think I am all the special, but I from what I remember, I believe many

Hmm, this makes me wonder though -- I have noticed various projects on Github and various other sites allow for users and fans of projects to donate to the developers and maintainers. Who hasn't seen the "wanna buy me a coffee?&qu

I am not certain that is entirely true. I suppose it's all a matter of what one is using an LLM for, no? GPT is great at citing sources for most of my requests -- even if not always prompted to do so. So, in a way, I kind of use LLMs a

I am sorry, but I have no further interest in this discussion with you. This conversation will only grow more counterproductive. I hope we can have better discussions on different topics in the future. Take care and be well.

The person I was responding to was unlikely a pro-Israeli activist, so I am not certain why you felt compelled to mention your caveat. Are you implying that because pro-Israeli activist allegedly created the conflation that others are justi

I have a degree in computer science, and I have been a professional full-stack developer for almost 9 years. I could probably not solve the problem in your first link in 25 minutes. I know exactly how I would solve it, conceptually and what

I am not certain having a degree vs. being self-taught is the deciding factor in what is likely attributable to personality and motivational differences.

Can one even truly delete their DNA from 23andMe? Wouldn't deleting someone's DNA require deleting not only the existing record, but also the record from all historical back-ups too? What is to say 23andMe just doesn't flip a

To piggyback on the sentiment a bit -- I think the hardest part about ADHD, at least in my opinion, is that it is one of the handful of disorders in which much of the difficultly and misery originates from outside of the afflicted individ

It's a shame how strong the reinforcement loops are. It's hard to sleep well without good exercise, and it's hard to exercise well without good sleep.

My issue with exercise is that it's boring as sin. I rather do manual labor or play a sport than go to a gym. There is just something that feels so artificial about running on a human-designed hamster wheel or picking up heavy objects

Been on them for over decade, they don't work that way -- at least for me. Not sure I want them to work that way either. I am not sure working out on stimulants is the best for the body. The candle that burns twice as hot burns twice a

Reminds me on an analogy for a monad I once heard. Not sure if it is correct because I lack the mathematical understanding to verify. Anyway, a nested To-Do list is (allegedly) a common form of a monad. Say I am trying to clean my whole hou

What are your clinical observations and opinions on actual research backed treatments? I am mainly concerned about the efficacy of stimulants as a treatment as opposed to non-stimulants and psychotherapeutic interventions. Also, is there ar

I'm not convinced these tests measure what they claim to. Even assuming they do, IQ scores offer little practical value. The human body and mind are always adapting, however subtly, to changing environments. So I wonder -- are IQ tests

YouTube has an estimated worth, if it were a stand-alone company, of $475 billion to $550 billion. I'm sure they'll survive off just fine continuing to sell my personal information just like that always have.

Without the ads, I'd probably spend way too much time on YouTube. I need something to push me into the rage-quit territory after enough time has passed.
