Tools matter. First ascent of Eiger’s north face took few days and team of 4. Last I heard Ueli Steck did it few years ago solo in less than 2 hours. Maybe he was better but not by that much. His tools were unquestionably better.

“Because light doesn’t travel forever” Every sensible line of questions will inevitably hit this wall of incomprehensible undebunkable “understanding” of the world. It’s better to dig into their understanding of what is a conspiracy and how

you don't think "one" every time you do something once. just like that you can train to not think "one-two" and not to think "one-two three-four" and so on. gets harder the larger the number, but it's

It is, but it helps. A nice way I found to detach myself from racing thoughts is through these steps: - count - count some physiological process within you (breathing or heartbeat) - recognize that you can count it without thinking numbers

Hmm.. I find it hard to reconcile with the fact that obesity is so widespread I the US. Isn’t obesity linked to inflammation through (at least partially) insulin, which is quite inflammatory? Don’t have medical education, so maybe somebody

you should learn about clojure. not only it provides nice concurrency semantics (not actors though, more granular stuff), it's also functional (in a pragmatic way, like erlang) and immutable to the core. tutorial: https://ww

Also relentless public shaming. Like, who’s idea was it to put micro plastics in shower gels and stuff? I want to know their names and the whole chain of management that made it happen. They should be publicly humiliated, win international

You really don’t want a couple million unemployed and unemployable citizens at your doorstep one day angry for why they suddenly can’t afford to live. You don’t want it as a government and you don’t want it as a company/corporation.

The price is $50 for what I’ve seen there. And that would still include a pretty sweet margin. Can’t imagine who’s buying it for $350. Either fuck you money or virtue signaling?
