Thanks, that was a very interesting read! I know paracetamol also works to some extent for emotional pain, and perhaps anxiety and physical pain share some neural and developmental pathways. Do you feel any physical pain? How about empathy?

You are both on to something. Optimists are more likely to survive situations that are survivable given their lack of planning. Pesimists are more likely to survive by planning around crysises and avoiding them. There can be selection bias

I think what you describe is nowhere near mania or euphoria, it is just generally being content with life. I've also met people who are generally content. I've suffered from extreme mood swings, and the next day after I punched my

In my country, I've never seen any discounts for self checkout.

This is offtopic, and just my own relationship with money and my own religious education, in no way judging you or others, but do you ever get any guilt by thinking "well, I contributed to this child's charity, but I really have e

I hate self checkout because it means more work for me.

Aren't the NINJA loans an example of why we need more bank regulations and tighter loan cheks instead of making banks hand out even more loans?

Could you explain your last phrase more concretely? In my country mortgage loans stop when people don't have the downpayment of 5%-15% of the mortgage or when they have already indebted themselves for more than 45% of their income. Oth

But isn't collateral a tried an tested measure of knowing if you are actually able to repay your debt? Who would know better than the bankers, politicians?

Central banks have experience with past crisis, banks (should)have their true and tested criteria to hand out debt, people and corporations do not meet those criteria, hence the banks did not hand out more debt. You can make the argument th

God, I'm so tired of hearing this: "debt is currently cheap to get, so for the government not to invest would be rather unrational". Debt is cheap BECAUSE we had a financial crisis, BECAUSE we let people who shouldn't ha

I'm not familiar with what T cells do, I thought they did not have a single target, unlike antibodies -- wouldn't transplanting T cells mean they would immediately attack the patients cells, as they are detected as foreign?

I'm in my mid thirties, I'll look into PSA, and my father has prostatitis, but no family history of prostate cancer(my grandfather died 86 years old, but lived a much healthier life than me or my father). So I'll definitely k

I was thinking that in out case hot or cold is not the main issue, but the area where to look. If you look at a star 300 light years away, you just have to search a couple of pixels away from the star. But if you searched for such a planet

Is the Earth that much of a hassle if we built on the near side instead of the far side? Perhaps for radio astronomy? Or build it on the far side, near the poles, with a solar array just across the pole -- perhaps that way you could have so

300 AU? Isn't that exeedingly far? Like 10 times farther away from Pluto? Would we even be able to detect such a planet if it orbited the Sun?

You don't have to do the prioritization yourself, you could do it with the therapist. You could ask yourself witch bothers you the most. Also if there are clusters of schemas, start with the ones in the same cluster, but your therapist

That's not good and not bad. As far as I know, if you want to help with BPD by therapy, its better to have the same therapist, given you two have a plan to improve certain aspects. I'm currently seeing a female therapists that run

I have a SNP (according to ancestry) that gives me ~5X the chance to get prostate cancer. What treatment is available for prostate cancer, besides debilitating surgery?

"she's gonna do the work that my parents failed to do" That is a psychotherapy cliche, but it has a lot of merit to it. Significant adults in your life have imprinted/caused MOST of the ways you approach love or work. Ju

I've been diagnosed with BPD. I've seen three personal therapists and a couples therapist. They all helped and I learned some tricks from them, clarified things, my BPD symptoms have diminished, but they tend to do so with age w

Make a list while not with a therapist -- what do you want to fix? Another way to start is checking if you match these (though you could be suffering from one and not even recognise it by reading the abstract description): https:/&#x2

Why shouldn't there be something when once there was nothing? Because our everyday experience and intuition dictates it? Our everyday intuition cannot hold a candle to the quantum world. Hell, our everyday intuition cannot hold a candl

I think those guys fly in much better weather conditions than the returning fairings. If those guys miss by 50 meters, no biggie, they just walk and pick the rocket up. If SpaceX misses by 5 meters, the fairings could end up in the salt wat

I agree to that,but masks are still useful even for preventing, and my main reasoning was that wearing a mask is a proxy for how serious the person is for all the rest -- social distaning, avoiding crowds, avoiding interaction with people w

I only used clever algorithms maybe, MAYBE a dozen times in 12 years as a java developer. I know I can, in university I implemented huffman compression(I know there is nothing special about it algorithm-wise) in java and I got the best run-

You could be very right -- I suppose if someone thought COVID was a hoax and was asked if they wore a mask, in a hospital setting, they would be more inclined to say they did, just like how people say they voted for the winner in an electio
