That's way too late. By that time their whole life will be spoiled.

I have experienced brain damage, thanks to my health chronic problems. But I'm still smarter than 98% of public intellectuals.

Listen to the master:

Of course I know why they do it. That's the thing I dislike. It's an arms race to memorize moves. This ruins the spirit of chess. Which is why Bobby Fischer agrees with me and invented Fischer Random. Fischer was a chess purist.

@AtmanIsBrahman Why would a true chess player want to memorize anything? Memory is an inferior form of intellect. I should be able to give you chess with brand new pieces and you should be able to play it. That is intelligence. If you need to run to a book to memorize a bunch of moves that is so lame that it ruins the game. Classical chess was great 150 years ago. Before group-think killed it.

That's deep inner game. Owen was always king of inner game. Inner game is for advanced pickup. Great stuff. This is what I loved Owen for.

Fischer Random is PURE chess. Classic chess is just group-think.

What if black always starts with 1 random pawn advanced forward by 1 square? This would have the added advantage of making opening theory less robotic

I do daily meditation on and off just because I like to retreat into stillness. I often combine meditation with contemplation. The stillness helps me focus and get into a contemplative flow, away from the noise of the day. For some people a bit of daily mediation is effective. Personally for me it does not produce progress. People's brains work different. Find what works on you. The ultimate goal is to unlock new permanent baseline shifts. But this requires hardcore effort. It won't happen easily. I will do whatever I need to to raise my baseline state. There's definitely changes in me. The changes are subtle but significant. The change is not as radical as being on a psychedelic 24/7. That's a wrong expectation.

If it has a great DJ it draws in a lot of good girls. But still not as classy as XS girls. And Omnia is a lot louder and more annoying to navigate. I like XS also because is one of the least loudest clubs. The music is so loud in most clubs that it's hard to even hear yourself think. The volume is actually a significant problem for game. Very hard to hear conversation.

Yes, perception sharpens a lot after 100hrs of continuous meditation. You are aware in ways that you never could be in normal life. Your perception becomes extremely sensitive. Like you can sense a fly fart across the room. I'm exaggerating, just so you get the idea. Yes, you lose it all. Some mild permanent changes may happen, or may not. It's impossible to predict. The hope is that you get some permanent shift but that usually requires many retreats, not just one. What mostly changes is that meditation and concentration become easier in the future, so you can do it faster next time. The more retreats you do the better you get at it and the less hours you need to build up to a highly focused state. For example, on my first retreat I got an enlightenment event on the last day. But it was short and it evaporated. Meditation states evaporate just like psychedelic states. Unless you just do tons and tons of meditation retreats. It requires a monumental effort. It's like stopping the Titanic with a BB gun. You can stop the Titanic with a BB gun. You'll just die of boredom along the way.

Questioning

Oh, I was expecting that. It was obvious that would happen since Tate moved here.

This makes no sense. Labeling is to develop concentration ability. If you could concentrate you wouldn't even need labeling. And labeling is bad at generating insight.

Good point. But there must be some good piece to give to black for pre-development.

I don't need that. Labeling is all I need. Or even more simply I can just concentrate on nothing.

Whatever was created with AI could have been created manually if you made it your career. It's only been a few weeks since I posted about truth-music and already we got dozens of cool proofs of concept. Whether AI was used is irrelevant. The point is that there's huge artistic potential here. AI just speeds up the proofs of concept. I see these songs as prototypes of what's possible.

You can't destroy God because God created destruction.

Why you asking me? Ask him.

Posted it on my blog.

That is genius! Wow

Good work.

Just because your parents had it doesn't mean you have it. Whether you have it depends on if you actually have the talents when you practice. Only you can know that. I can't tell you what to do. The most powerful practices are: Psychedelics Hardcore meditation retreats Kriya yoga Do them all if you are serious. But since you have mental illness be extra careful with psychedelics. Small doses.

The alien rat opener beats all!
