Using AI isn't good for you

ChatGPT acts as a “cognitive crutch” that weakens memory, new research suggests

A recent experiment provides evidence that relying on artificial intelligence to help study new material tends to reduce how much information students remember weeks later. The findings suggest that while these tools can speed up initial learning, they might actually weaken the deep mental processing required to store knowledge over the long term. The study was published in the journal Social Sciences & Humanities Open.

“Productivity does not replace Competence: There is an abysmal difference between delivering a piece of work and understanding the process of its creation. The indiscriminate use of AI can create an ‘illusion of competence,’ where the individual obtains results without developing the synapses necessary to replicate that reasoning independently.”

“The Atrophy of the Critical ‘Muscle’: Just as the constant use of calculators reduced mental calculation skills, delegating writing and text interpretation to AI can atrophy the capacity for synthesis and critical thinking. Without the mental ‘friction’ of reading and writing, we lose the ability to articulate complex ideas and question information.”

“AI as Co-pilot, not Autopilot: The main lesson is that AI should be used to expand human capabilities (increase reach), not to replace them (eliminate effort). Human value will increasingly shift from the ability to execute to the ability to ask the right questions and critically curate the generated data.”

Your religion does not prohibit me from anything

 

“If there is a God, He will have to beg my forgiveness.” — A phrase that was carved on the walls of a concentration camp cell during WWII by a Jewish prisoner.

Why the fuck do you allow kids to be abused and never answer THEIR prayers for help, but the second the rapist repents, it’s a one way ticket to the Epstein island of heaven.

Even though I'm an atheist I try my best to live a life a God could look at and respect. if god exists or not is besides the point, being a good person comes first, I'm sure god would respect that.

"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones." - Marcus Aurelius

How to quit drinking

 Trying to quit drinking without doing anything to fill that void in your life is just going to make you super aware of the fact that you want it and how much fun it is. In a moment of weakness you will start, and once you start, you can't stop.

Recognise that the person you are sober is not the same person you are after a drink. That person who has had a drink does not share your values or thoughts about having more alcohol, and you cannot bargain or reason with them. When you are trying to convince yourself "only a couple this time", it's actually that other person lying to you so they can be in charge.

Don't bring it into the house.

Don't go to places where they sell it.

Don't spend time with friends who will want you to participate.

These are choices you make. No one puts the bottle to your mouth except you. No one forces you to buy more. You can choose not to do these things, and when you don't have immediate access to it, you aren't as likely to succumb to a moment of impulsivity.

Find something you can replace alcohol with so that every time you feel like a drink, you divert yourself to your replacement. Food, gaming, sports, exercise, etc etc just pick something that will give you that dopamine hit that is not as bad for you as drinking.

Once you have stopped for a couple of days, recognise and appreciate the benefits of not drinking.

Focus on connecting the experience of the hangover or the way you would occasionally treat people with alcohol. It's so easy to only think of drinking as the great parts like at the start and where you are becoming more drunk.

If you want to stop but can't, you are an addict. So many of us are. It's hard on the ego to accept that you are not strong enough to overcome it through sheer force of will alone.

Don't wait for a health scare or physical dependency to quit drinking. Imagine a doctor telling you your liver is permanently screwed up because of the drinking and your life has been cut significantly shorter because of it. You knew better but continued anyway, knowing full well it WILL eventually kill you.

Sobriety is a gift not only to yourself but the other people close to you in your life. Do it for them too.

What are the best lifehacker you would recommend to someone about to live alone for the first time?

 I just realized that culture rules for how to do domestic chores, what appliances to buy, etc, are very outdated. And It can take SO much time to do things... So I wonder what life hacks to save times around the house people have found.

• Clean as you are making the mess, don’t leave it for the end, like cooking in the kitchen.
• The most obvious: when you start cleaning, start from top to bottom. Because let's say you clean the floors first, them there's still dust all around that will end up on the floor when you wipe counters etc.
• If you see something that needs doing, and it’ll take less than 5 minutes to do it, do it now. If it takes more than 5 minutes schedule it on my (Google) calendar. Don’t save everything for a big weekly cleaning day. It’s easier to do maintenance tasks as you go, and you’ll never feel overwhelmed by all of the things that need cleaning.

• Stock up on shelf stable food you can prepare quickly in case you end up ill and can't get to the store.

For those who hate this, you're the type like me who need to see these types of chores in a totally different light. We think of chores as an all or nothing event. There are or there are not dishes. Same with laundry, dirt on the carpet, everything.

Instead, think of chores as resetting something's cleanliness back to 100% (or however close to that feels efficient), and from there it slowly degrades over time forever downward. It's okay, that's what it does. It only feels defeating because we think we're supposed to maintain 100%. We're not. We're supposed to keep it from getting too low. If you stop to vacuum the floor every time it's a tiny bit dirty, say 90%, then you're using an entire chore just to refresh 10%. It's like topping off your gas tank between every single errand. No, you let it get a little low so you can bundle it up efficiently. Do you need to go all the way to 100%? No, not really.

The height of cleanliness goals only has three factors, with sanitation as the absolute minimum, functionality of the item/space as the soft maximum (no material benefit gained above that point), and lastly just personal taste, which should be mindfully aimed at or above the point of full functionality, but below 100%. Like, imagine playing a game and popping a health potion every time you get to 99%. It's absurd. It's a waste of resources. It's kind of obsessive and delusional, no? In a game you'd probably aim for maybe 70% health or something, unless there's a boss coming up (surprise visit from mom) and you don't wanna take chances.

Hopefully that view makes it easier to view chores as ongoing without it also feeling daunting.

Avoid void in the wind

It doesn't display in the list of mods for me nor did it display on the title screen like he says but when you open video settings shaders is there and on the bottom left it shows what optifine version that is loaded. Additionally zoom started working and you can view that keybind under optifine in your keybindings.

his one is my latest acquisition and second Omega, the 43.5mm Planet Ocean 8900. It took me a while to understand why people love this model so much, but I get it now. The finishing is impeccable, the design and proportions are great and I love the movement. The timekeeping is very accurate - well within specifications (approximately +1 to 1.5 spd). I also just got the new iPhone 13 Pro and the camera on that phone is great. So, I was messing around on my couch while watching TV on my couch and thought this looked quite decent.

Bonus - the reflected movement you see on the bezel is my cat, sitting just outside the frame and licking her butt :)

This is a Nature documentary, and as you notice, it is heavily edited and enhanced in a number of ways. For this species, there is very little video info - this is a highly furtive species, active at night, and shies away from people. So little is known about them other than what biologists have observed in controlled settings (OK, zoos). Documentaries are pretty much made to make money and appeal to viewers who might contribute to the programming. For all these reasons, I prefer to set out now and then and see nature for myself, in the actual locations where they are native.
