  1. Rule number one of psychedelics. People who haven't done psychedelics don't know about psychedelics. Rule number two of psychedelics. Try it before you judge it.
  2. They are truly blind. Zazen, have you ever checked this guy out on X? He is pretty damn good at cutting through the noise https://x.com/nxt888
  3. Best to do it in youth probably
  4. He did it because he is the CEO of the boxing company
  5. Yeah, all the work you do today automatically comes with "extra credit" because of how many tools there are available. For every 1 brick you lay there are 10 bricks that get counted. The infrastructure is already set up.
  6. Hofstadter's Law Hofstadter's Law is a witty adage stating, "It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law," co-authored by Douglas Hofstadter, highlighting our chronic underestimation of task duration, especially complex ones, due to cognitive biases like optimism and failing to see hidden steps (the "Planning Fallacy"). It serves as a reminder to build buffers, break down tasks, and practice patience, as even experienced individuals fall prey to this tendency to over-optimistic timelines, affecting everything from software projects to writing essays. Key Aspects: Self-Referential: The law's humor comes from its recursive nature, acknowledging that even when aware of the tendency to underestimate, we still do it. Planning Fallacy: It's deeply connected to this cognitive bias where we ignore past experiences and focus too much on potential ease, not complexity. Cognitive Roots: Our brains are wired to be optimistic, failing to account for all sub-tasks and unforeseen issues, says a YouTube video. Examples: Mega-Projects: The Sydney Opera House and Wembley Stadium famously ran years behind schedule, despite expert management. Student Essays: Students might estimate 10 days for an essay but finish it one day before the deadline, notes The Guardian article. Solutions (from the Law's Implications): Buffer Time: Add significant contingency to estimates. Break Down Tasks: Divide large projects into smaller, manageable chunks. Monitor Progress: Use regular reviews (like in Agile) to adjust plans. Practice Patience: View delays as normal and opportunities for growth, not failure.
  7. It's probably just technology. A plane gets you across the world in a day, amazon ships a package in a half day, uber brings you the food you were supposed to hunt in 30 minutes, you can google any information you want, and you don't have to deliver text messages by horse, you can instantly 3D print anything you want, you can see boobies without being a solid man. It's easy to get carried away in instant gratification. Modernity has no patience Go back to the 90s
  8. Hike one of those 6 month long trails across an entire region
  9. $100m is nothing. That's only $10m a year in interest $1b you get $100m a year on the interest alone
  10. Ahh American traditionalism. Where your pure innocent virgin wife that you would sacrifice your life for and the mother of your children and grandmother of your grandchildren...can be found naked in high heels by any horny man who is ready to get his rocks off Homie fell for the scam. YUCK!
  11. Because the US is broke and they don't know how to get out of debt by their own merit. They got in debt because of endless war and they will get out of debt by endless war. USA = WAR
  12. Outlier male is where it's at
  13. The issue is women influence the girls. Especially if these feminists don't want men to influence young girls. How else will girls know how to behave? It's called role models. You want young girls to have prostitutes as role models? Why? What for?
  14. Removing patriarchy doesn't stop women from obeying. Instead of obeying your father/brother/husband you will just obey your government or boss. Maybe if your government and workplace are overrun by women that would make it better but those women are masculinized. Can't escape it. Worst case scenario another patriarchy comes and invades your matriarchy. Better to stick with the men you know rather than strangers who don't have your best interest at heart. How have feminists still not figured this out yet? Do you want private obedience or public obedience?
  15. The feminist women want to serve more than the obedient ones. Because the feminist ones spend their entire day being cartoonishly bossy so they need to even it out by being even more in servitude than normal. 50 Shades of Grey was the most popular book during the Me Too witch hunt movement!
  16. Instagrams normal algorithm is the same porn that was available 20 years ago lmao
  17. How many months/years until AI vibe coding will be able to act as a middle man agent between someone who doesn't code at all and their developer team?
  18. Do you think vibe coding is just a tool to work between you and the developer?
  19. Are you guys ready for the wave of Venezuela immigrants that are about to wash up on the shores? Things are getting heated up. Americans have no choice but to "protect" Venezuela from Venezuela and then of course be angry about the refugees that come as a result. When you think about it it actually makes perfect sense
  20. I will be getting lots of fan mail with lipstick kisses then
  21. The women loved watching this twisted show. I think it broke the ratings records for the time it was on. They also love these immigrant barbarians. Which is why they keep voting them in. Even if they are from a lesser civilized culture it makes the women super wet compared to the boring domesticated native men
  22. That's funny you worded it that way Europe is Western Asia. The Middle East is officially West Asia but Asia just keeps going beyond that into Europe. Eurasia maybe?
  23. What are the odds they can innovate? I hate that stupid water bottle in EU where you can't remove the cap. I like that they made Apple switch to Type C charging. What else are they up to lol I think USA must have learned their lesson with allowing China to become the manufacturing powerhouse of the world. They will de industrialize EU
  24. You're forgetting the mind. It may be simple to realize the bad drivers from the good drivers. But when it comes to people everyone is under severe delusions. They don't know shit. That's why they assassinate every prophet and only a century later start to worship that same prophet
