I've taken a medication that occasionally makes me feel stupid. For a day I might be unable to continue reading a book without re-reading each sentence a few times. I might not be able to talk to people about a complicated or technical

What do you make of dowries, where the bride's family transfers wealth to the groom's family? Are they buying the sex of the groom? This would be consistent with what you are saying. Dowries (wealth from bride's family to gro

Before you criticize me for calling a dangerously flawed currency a shitcoin, you should criticize those who use "bitcoin" and "cryptocurrency" interchangeably. Bitcoin was fine back in the day but is terribly flawed in

In America we are seeing the acceleration of sex commodification to it's zenith.

Pornography is a symptom of the commodification of sex, much like legal prostitution, sugar-daddies, and even the transactional swiping hookup apps that dominate dating among lower age groups. It is the tendency of a capital-dominated cultu

Engineers at Instagram, Facebook dot com, Youtube, and Twitter DO NOT want to think about how they are affecting the mental health of their users. All they want to do is spout some platitudes and wash their hands of all responsibility.

Would the doctors take fewer appointments per day and make less money? Or do doctors get paid by the hour?

This question might be out of place, but why should I trust ML algorithms for my health? To be a doctor you need at least a decade of education and training, as well as licensing and adherence to a code of ethics. To be a tech bro you just

Jordan Peterson got it right months ago. "It’s hard to imagine a technology with more power to disrupt. I’m already in the position (as many of you soon will be as well) where anyone can produce a believable audio and perhaps video of

Facebook users buy into doctored photos all the time. It's part of this little known phenomenon called "fake news". Video deepfakes are still time consuming and difficult to develop.

Yes. Google told people that they have a free thinking culture. That does not mean they have a free thinking culture.

Googlers are debating "entertainment politics", not economic politics. Instead of unionizing, they're criticizing contracts with oil and gas companies, criticizing search engine censorship in China (but just in China; search

The problem with an "adversity score", as stated in another comment, is that it doesn't actually measure the adversity that an individual faces. It's not chocolate milk, it's diarrhea milk. It doesn't accuratel

For most decentralized technologies, we should make legal ramifications impossible. It's impossible to break PGP encryption, monitor Monero transactions, or de-anonymize Tor traffic if the user acts prudently. This is good. We're

IRC, XMPP, Monero, PGP, and Tor all facilitate decentralization. I don't mention other cryptocurrencies because as far as I know, only Monero protects against surveillance. I don't want the government (or corporations) knowing eve

He is offering medical advice. He's telling people to use drugs. You can't get more medical than that. Again, it's fine to tell people to use a drug as long as you tell them the risks. It would be irresponsible for me to tell

I don't think you should recommend that people just try amphetamine or cannabis, much less in tandem. There are serious side effects especially if you have an existing or latent mental illness. Cannabis can induce a psychotic episode i
