  1. @aurum I don't think there's ever been a time that I thought to myself "I might need an AR-15". I understand the perspective of 2nd amendment to protect yourself from tyranny. But at this point it seems like the tool is being abused for mass shooting.
  2. All the highest homicide cities are in Mexico
  3. thats a lot of fucking money. i think theres alternatives that cost less. alternatively you can study the hell of the material thats on the internet already but you have to study it deeply, analyze and synthesize the principles behind everything
  4. Interesting, particularly for Vegas. Thought it would be higher. You'd figure they are pulling at the very least weekly. If not multiple times a week (clubs open every day) + leads from dating apps. Kinda crazy that these guys that literally dedicate their entire life to this... are basically still in scarcity. Only celebrities seem to have it on "tap" so to speak. And the average girl literally achieves 10x the results of the average joe. Anyone have thoughts on this?
  5. Crazy you have explored these topics since middle school. It wasn't really until I graduated high school that I started to get into this stuff. Nevertheless, you will need to survive somehow. So be very smart about not piling on debt (student loans etc...) otherwise you'll get more stuck in societies traps.
  6. Still deeper than Gary Kasparov's book... lol
  7. @Leo Gura How strong are you in regular chess elo wise?
  8. @Hardkill they make progress within their limited world view. stepping outside of that is too scary.
  9. i will work on getting my degree in CS and math (that is what i currently study) in the mean time and then get a good paying job. currently i am doing peasant work in a warehouse and i dont have much money left each week nor can i afford to move out which is a huge problem since living with certain people takes a toll on me emotionally i need to seek support also
  10. Why were they going 100mph?? is that really the car's fault...
  11. Obviously do not condone this... This is not the way. But if it is true that United Healthcare has increased denials in order to profit (hence killing tons of sick people) What kind of seeds are you planting? Indeed based on the reaction I've seen on Reddit, people are so unhinged. Very surprised that so many people are celebrating it on this level.
  12. Call her a psychopath back <3
  13. I agree. Being a security guard is a great job since their is a lot of downtime to do whatever!
  14. Who do regard highly from contemporary figures?
  15. Calculus is not that hard... It's like Algebra with extra steps. Mathematics gets obfuscated by the shitty education system.
  16. That's like the pot calling the kettle black! Also the average woman has much more experience than the average man... Hence the reverse is already true for women. Women are more desensitized to men than the reverse. It is through experience that men become desensitized. This is something most men lack. Women don't, unless they're total hermits.
  17. Why can’t I just lay down at the park and stare up at the trees in perfect bliss? Why do I imprison myself with the inherent dissatisfaction of needing to become somebody? Consumerism is slavery in disguise. Indoctrinating minds into believing that they “need” x to be happy. Of course everyone strives to be happy. Hence if you control people’s desires, you control their behavior

  19. It feels like my mind is being scrambled somehow. I don't know what to do about it. Constant negative emotion angst and rumination. Preventing me from even being able to use attention with any semblance of efficacy. This affects my life in general in very drastic ways. Has been the case since adolescence. If I do weed or psychedelics my intuition skyrockets as well as calculation in chess, working memory etc. Need advice. The reason I use the chess example is because it's a tangible controlled environment that has made me keenly aware of this problem ADHD medication also fixes this
  20. @LoseYourvelf Yes. I was dubious as well because it could be purely subjective. But the statistics from my games when high versus sober show a clear and major difference. Consistently much lower centipawn loss 20-30 (versus minimum 2x that). Elimination of moves that are blunders.
  21. Ultimately, they are people just like everyone else If you make it, people will celebrate you... They always "knew" you had it in you If you don't, you're a loser Ultimately only you know yourself
  22. @Abe27 on the other side of the coin you might yourself avoiding the harsh realities of survival If you can for sure live off of the fortune you made, in a long-term sustainable way then go for it 100% but if their is negative long-term implications I might consider that and plan accordingly
