Viagra increases the effect of nitric oxide, which is bad stuff when it gets into cytochrome complex iv in the mitochondria (IIRC). I would personally suspect based on that, that i…

And I say in turn, it's a skill issue if your "website" or "app" could be made by a GPT in a few minutes. Is what you're doing actually valuable, then? It consistently fails to sol…

While I can appreciate reasoning about AGI as a purely abstract thing (I loved Nick Bostrom's book, Superintelligence), it seems out-of-touch to believe it's at all likely to happe…

I wonder if internet access and instant-entry is /necessarily/ a distraction or impediment to deep thought, or it could be stomached to the effect of great productivity with an esp…

Print out .pngs of heads and plaster them all over your body. Riot cop defeated.

Counterpoint: Try munching on some pure cane sugar. Observe that it is not very addictive at all.

Yes, this is what I put forward at the end.

Added sugar is not necessarily problematic, but consumption of anti-thyroid substances like high amounts of PUFA (especially seed oils), chlorine, bromine, fluoride (in absence of …

It makes sense given that systems programming is more in the realm of cathedrals like Universities, whose whole M.O. to begin with is having you do free work, underpaid work, or ev…

Seeing as I cannot control all the software I have on my computers, I just gave up. Everything in $HOME that I care about is in ~/my. $HOME itself is anarchic, and that's okay with…

I am personally skeptical of the role of omega-3 and omega-6 in dementia, at least, one should never take these as supplements. It is a medical fact that they are highly unstable a…

It's all a google away.

My unprofessional opinion is that these are both explained by a third variable, excessive consumption of carbohydrates, starches especially. (It also explains the correlation betwe…
