Have over 2000 posts without getting banned. That might take two years. How can they make you a mod if we have no idea what your track record is? The other requirement is when most mods become inactive eventually because of life getting in the way then leo will look for candidates.

Have some fun, basketball with your friends and try to re-incorporate play into your life. Sweat hard and let go.

I woke up this morning thinking of my cousins dog Frankie, I felt like I had to tell people about the dog. So I contacted him and it turns out his dog died yesterday. Something like this has happened a couple times in my life where I wake up thinking about something and then that person or animal dies the day before or an hour before. Have you guys had this experience?

ENOUGH. Where are the statistics for this specific Veterinarian Clinic on how successful they are for chemotherapy. You're worth as a doctor should be determined by the results you have not based on a diploma on a wall. A doctor is the only profession where we don't care about skill level. Would you hire a financial advisor that just came out of school, NO they're notoriously bad at making good financial decisions, they lack experience in the real world. You want people who have experience, in the software industry all they care about is that you have real world experience and you have proof of your ability. A doctor does not need to prove their abilities they simply need to have a diploma and then we just blindly agree with them. Where is proof of a doctor's ability? What is the proof of a doctors skill level? A surgeon is measured by how successful they are at certain operations but for some reason we don't extend this logic to any other aspect of the healthcare industry.

I woke up this morning thinking of my friends dog Frankie spontaneously I have no idea why I had this thought. I contacted him and he said that his dog died yesterday. The issue is why did they put a dog on chemotherapy? The dog was fine then they went to the veterinarian and it turned out the dog had cancer so they put the dog on chemotherapy and less than 3 months later the dog died. Does that sound reasonable to you? The dog didn't die from cancer his life was prematurely cut short by chemotherapy. Why couldn't they let the dog live out the rest of his life, it probably had two years left, but no we had to pretend that intervention was a better solution... We had to make the dog as sick as F***** possible for the last 3 months of its life. THANK YOU. Thank you for-profit "healthcare" industry.

When I first made a game engine from scratch in C++, every part of that system I was intimately connected with, the process of building it makes you fall in love with it. It's a romantic process. But what I didn't know is my state is what allowed me to connect with it so deeply and of course the quality was way higher because of that. There are so many games that when I first played them it was a magical experience but it was my state that allowed it to be magical.

I thought about it more it's true that states is important but we all have our own individual preferences. Mine are: A beautiful constructed system. (when you fully understand a system it becomes beautiful) Beautiful chess move. A Individuals natural talents Anything you built with your own hands. A vision coming to life. Nostalgia like Peak childhood memories or visiting those places Anything you're infatuated with. Like your first girlfriend. A beautiful story like seven pounds You'll only know what state is when you lose it. A healthy person has a default state that is generally relaxed and allows itself to be receptive to the beauty in life but when you lose that default state due to chronic illness your permanently out of touch with the beauty in this world and every day is at best neutral. For example your having a bad day there's resistance to everything it's hard just to open a can of beans somehow you manage to do it wrong, but when we have a good day everything is funny, everything flows easily, the colors are more Vivid. Past a certain age the body gets trapped in a sick default state and there are no more good days, just eating is suffering.

@Bobby_2021 musk gambled all his money on the success of those companies, he was ready to go down with the ship and had countless sleepless nights.

Elon is fine with people being transgender as adults and doing whatever they want with their body, he does not agree with children having a sex change with hormone blockers given by “professionals”.

I think we are in the era of celebrity presidencies, my generation has no interest in a regular traditional politician anywhere near the White House. People are tired of regular traditional politicians. The only people that still want that are people that grew up before the Internet. I think the Democrats should take any celebrity that has potential and push them up the ladder.

I know man it's painful I went through the same thing. In the end you had to be ambitiously focused on your health to really figure this out many years ago when it first began by Brute Force of persistence and going to every single doctor you could possibly find until you stumbled upon the right answer. Basically something very few people even realize that they need to do or have the money to do. It's completely unreasonable. You're going to slowly recover over the next 6 months to 3 years because you're still young and the body is actually really good at recovery you just have to give it all the tools it needs to do so. You're going to recover to a high enough quality of life where you're content, but it's just not going to be perfect. So pay attention to the long road and do everything you can to slowly make progress, really nail down your sleep routine and everything to maximize recovery make sure you're eating well, notice how food affects you now because your body is different and it doesn't work the same way it did before.

Hilarious Speed Running of Free Will Philosophy. 384 BCE, the year it all began. It was here that Aristotle kicked off with the first serious examination of free will. Free will, the concept that humans can make choices of their own volition, has puzzled philosophers for millennia. The idea doesn't seem particularly special at first glance - just the notion that we control our actions. But there's more to this concept than meets the eye, and although thinkers didn't know it yet, legendary breakthroughs with the potential to reshape our understanding of human nature were laying dormant, hidden in plain sight. But for now, ignorant to the complexities ahead, philosophers had no choice but to focus on the basic route. Scattered throughout history are numerous tricks thinkers can use to defend or attack free will, and the first millennium of philosophical world record history saw many small improvements: maintaining more logical consistency after the initial premise, faster rebuttals to determinism, etc. As expected, progress gradually slowed down as players like Augustine, Aquinas, and Descartes pushed the concept closer to perfection. And on July 1st, 1654, a player named Spinoza set back-to-back records, pushing it down to a strict determinism. This record isn't viewable today, but it was clearly an incredibly controversial take on free will. The idea went on to stand unchallenged for nearly a century. But then, in 1781, the player Kant took it upon himself to push the concept further. His eyes firmly set on a transcendental run, Kant had single-handedly managed to bring the record down another level, driving the first truly modern conception of free will in philosophical history. After this flurry of ideas, free will was looking incredibly optimized. Kant had pushed every section to the limits of what was possible, and competitors would have to start thinking outside the box if they wanted to take his record down. During these years of hunting on free will, players had long since theorized that a shortcut might be possible on the concept. Although the idea originated much earlier, the first known footage of the idea came from Schopenhauer in 1819 when he shared this clip with the community: 'A man can do what he wills, but he cannot will what he wills.' The shortcut took advantage of a so-called 'will bug' to reach the finish line from a small patch of determinism to the left of free choice. For whatever reason, when the concept is balanced on its nose between freedom and necessity, if a player holds 'volition,' 'action,' and either 'cause' or 'effect,' there's a chance the idea will get sharply redirected in that direction. The catch is that the exact direction the concept flies in is incredibly unpredictable, and in the case of free will, even getting the nose of the idea down is already fairly difficult. In the clip, Schopenhauer managed to execute the will bug perfectly, setting his concept hurdling towards a new understanding of freedom, but there was one other problem with this shortcut idea - the finish line is facing the wrong way. This made finishing with a will bug from the side nearly impossible and completely luck-based. Because of all this, nobody really took the shortcut idea seriously, and it was slowly forgotten after even Schopenhauer moved on from the concept. It wouldn't be until June 1943 when someone new decided to give it a shot. Funnily enough, that someone was Jean-Paul Sartre. I had stumbled across Schopenhauer's failed clip during that June and, having always been fascinated with philosophical shortcuts, was surprised to see that nobody had given this one a real shot before. So for the next few months, Sartre went all in, putting up a huge effort in the hopes of getting that one lucky run. Many of his best attempts came heartbreakingly close, but that pesky finish line rejected will bug after will bug. On October 28th, 1945, Sartre booted up the concept like any other day, ready to throw attempts at the cut once again. But this session wouldn't last nearly as long as he had expected. On his very first attempt after loading the concept, this happened: 'Man is condemned to be free.' Finally, after countless hours of trying, Sartre had gotten a will bug that resulted in a lucky bounce, sending his idea tumbling into a new understanding of radical freedom. The shortcut dream on free will was real. After clinching the record, Sartre knew there was more potential to save time off the concept, but personally, he was content with his run. Later that same century, a player named Benjamin Libet saw this same room for improvement and began putting up attempts of his own. And on September 15th, 1983, Libet got this run: unconscious brain activity precedes conscious decisions. A few slightly better bounces after the will bug were all it took to improve the record down to a blazing fast neuroscientific challenge to free will, breaking the consciousness barrier for the first time. But this wasn't the only action free will saw in the late 20th century. Little did Libet know, but when he claimed the record, another player had been trying the shortcut themselves at the exact same time. Daniel Dennett, after Libet shared his clip showing off the new world record, the philosophical celebration for this run didn't last for long. Just 8 years later, Dennett dropped a clip of his own. It was a tiny improvement, but an improvement nonetheless, snatching away Libet's world record with a compatibilist view that redefined what we mean by 'free will.' Unlike Libet's record, Dennett's would stand atop the leaderboards for quite a while. That is, until Sam Harris set his sights on free will. Throughout the early 2000s, Harris had been on a dominant tear, claiming philosophical record after record, eventually working his way to challenge our deepest intuitions about choice and moral responsibility. Free will became Harris's next target, and it wouldn't take long before his dominance once again became apparent when he drove this run on the concept: 'Free will is an illusion.' Harris had finally nailed the dream shortcut, bouncing directly into a hard determinist position without losing any argumentative speed. This is where the philosophical world record stands today, sitting as another notch on Harris's ever-growing list of controversial achievements. But this shortcut wasn't just a personal victory for Harris, it was also a monumental step forward for the philosophical community, as discovering new perspectives on such ancient concepts is a rare feat. So with that in mind, you might be surprised to hear that free will wasn't the only fundamental philosophical concept to be shortcut for the first time that night. But in order to fully appreciate this story, we have to go all the way back to 470 BCE when a groundbreaking new shortcut first emerged on the concept of knowledge itself...

Here's another video style that I think could be adapted to different types of content. They're short style videos that just tell the basic story and use AI image generation to help depict the story. This content like the previous one requires a good presentation voice.

All of that is only possible because of the state you’re in. It’s all about state.

Paraphrasing Elon “we need a strong leader that intimidates other countries” i’m not seeing why we need that, it sounds like Elons trauma from the beating he received in his childhood has come into his political view.

The snipers on the roof had a clear shot of the assassin way before he put the ladder there and climbed it, but that sniper received maximum media coverage, he went on TV everywhere doing speeches, while we all praised him for his skills. 🤦‍♀️ I never understood why anyone resigns after making a mistake. people learn from mistakes and improve, why would anyone else do a better job.

No one knows who Kamala is… how can someone win when there’s been zero media coverage.

The chicken, the road, and the crossing are all imaginary manifestations within infinite consciousness. There is no separate chicken, no actual road, and no real crossing - just consciousness imagining itself as this entire scenario. Leo Gura's Ontology: The Chicken Crossing the Road According to Leo Gura's perspective on reality, we could interpret the chicken crossing the road scenario as follows: 1. Everything is Consciousness: The chicken, the road, the act of crossing, and even the concept of "crossing" are all manifestations of consciousness. They are not separate physical entities but aspects of a unified, infinite consciousness. 2. Reality as Imagination: The entire scenario is imaginary. Not just in the sense of being a thought experiment, but in the deeper sense that all of reality, including what we perceive as physical, is an act of imagination by infinite consciousness. 3. No Separate Self: The chicken doesn't have a separate self that decides to cross the road. The chicken, as we conceive it, is part of the imagination of infinite consciousness. 4. Illusory Nature of Time and Space: The road, representing space, and the act of crossing, representing time, are both illusions created by consciousness. There is no actual movement happening, as everything exists within timeless, spaceless consciousness. 5. Radical Non-Dualit*: There is no real distinction between the chicken and the road. The apparent separation is part of the imaginary scenario created by consciousness. 6. Emptiness as the Ground of Being: The chicken and the road are manifestations appearing in the "emptiness" or "nothingness" of pure consciousness, much like images projected on a blank screen. 7. Infinite Possibilities: The chicken could potentially do anything, not just cross the road, because within infinite imagination, all possibilities exist simultaneously. 8. The Unborn and Undying Nature: The chicken was never really "born" and doesn't really "die". These are just concepts within the greater imagination of consciousness. In this view, asking "Why did the chicken cross the road?" is based on several misunderstandings: 1. That there is a separate chicken 2. That there is a separate road 3. That there is an act of crossing 4. That there is a "why" or reason within ultimate reality Instead, we might say: The chicken crossing the road is one of infinite scenarios being imagined by consciousness, which is what you truly are. You are not observing a chicken crossing a road; you are the infinite consciousness imagining itself as a chicken, a road, and the act of crossing, all simultaneously. This perspective radically challenges our conventional understanding of reality and identity, suggesting that the humor in the chicken joke arises from our misunderstanding of the true nature of reality. -- * Edit: Because the AI made a distinction between real and imaginary I emphasized that there is no distinction and this is what it gave: The chicken, the road, and the crossing are consciousness. The distinction between real and imaginary dissolves - all is equally real and equally imaginary within infinite consciousness exploring itself.

Claude 3.5 Claude 3.5: Since you're writing a book on the topic, I'd love to hear more about your take on Heidegger's phenomenology as it relates to our philosophical chicken. Perhaps the road reveals itself as "present-at-hand" only when the chicken trips and faceplants, suddenly becoming aware of the road's obstinate "road-ness"? -- It looks like you have an admirer. 😉
