  1. @TheGod My man, you are not on a trip right now, your mind structures are more or less the same now as they were before tripping. You are in a baseline state that is prone to self-deception. This is my only advice, beware of self-deception, especially when you think you've surpassed it. This is one of the core Actualized.org teachings.
  2. "Pytasz co robić? Powiem to Ci Rób co najlepiej Ci wychodzi" - Kaliber 44 (Are you asking what to do? I'll tell you) (Do what you can do best) Why the hell have you started an LLC if you generate no income, have no business? You can do digital marketing and ecommerce in Poland, you don't need the US company for that. But I don't see you having experience in that market so I don't know why it's you choice if you so despise it. I think the better option would had been to stay at parents and take up some permanent job, and then do some gig overtime, so you can save money. You have no capital and no business right now. This or moving abroad to work some hard job and save, as you have no relevant experience and capital. No wonder you don't trust your judgment, as what you have described is more and more procrastination. Starting an LLC without even having a simple web store and selling a few widgets through dropshipping is like building a house starting from a roof. Maybe read "The Millionaire Fastlane" by MJ DeMarco. This book has bad political takes, but the business advice in it cuts through all the bullshit. AI trend is a distraction IMO, unless you want to be a clever online scammer. Then it's a good niche from scamming people, like the crypto schemes were. Some tough love for you. Sending best wishes. Find friends who are into ecommerce if you want to go into this business, you can make a good money there, my neighbor is selling hula hops for twice what he buys it marketing it as a fitness gear to lose weight on paid Facebook and Instagram ads. like $4k a month of volume on just this one item, half of which is profit, but he doesn't pocket that much, the taxes and stuff on it are really complicated and you need a really high volume of sales to make it viable. That's the reason behind my scolding for having an LLC while not having even tried to sell anything.
  3. @zazen my god, what the hell kind of propaganda you follow on Twitter?
  4. Python is great guys, you are just missing the point of who it is for. It's not for programmers creating online bank infrastructure, but for scientists doing statistics and like other computer stuff for which there is no built-in functionality in the system, you need to add it yourself.
  5. There are some professions that pay relatively well from the go. For example tutoring. It's a niceway to get cash for other business ideas.
  6. The dosage works as intended. This level of tripoing is to be expected from average psilocybe cubsensis, visuals start from 3.5 and more grams. You would have had a better trip if you had put all 1.8 grams at once in a mug and added boiling water, then keep it like that for 10 minutes, use a spoon or fork to drain the mushies and drink the water. You can do it with with a tea and some other addons so its tasty, you don't have to eat the mushrooms, just the tea is okay. Yes 20 euro is overpayed as fuck, i would pay max 4 per gram. Qnd that's being desperate. I think 1 eur per gram is a fair price. Otherwise you can get synthetic psilocybin analogues in a form of 4-PrO-DMT or 4-AcO-DMT, they are easy to dose with a microspoon, cheap and overall great. Eating mushrooms is worth it only if you want to eat the mushrooms, but if you want to trip, then oure substance is better.
  7. @Leo Gura but what brain waves in what parts of the brain have you trained? In the last years there were quite good qEEG studies of what DMT does to brain waves. And the Kriya Yoga guy's waves during meditation were much closer to it than typical neurofeedback training. I will find the video and papers.
  8. @Leo Gura Have you ever thought about EEG feedback meditation to train the same brainwaves as a DMT trip induces? I have seen some hardcore Kriya Yogi who was able to induce such brainwaves. But they were the result of his yoga practice and not eeg training.
  9. Current AIs are glorified databases, they do good only on tasks and questions to which there are some answers on the internet or pre-made examples it trained on. So they can correct your writing mistakes, as there are many examples of how correcting text works, but they can't solve a novel physics problem for you as they don't have anything akin to a model of how the external world works, only what operations can be made on text. They would be much better databases if they had accessed to copyrighted scientific materials, like digital copies of Elsevier books or something. Then they would be able to give answers on for example complex medical topics, as they know and can recall a correct answer from the book, serving it in a manner that relates to your question. I bet 0% on what OpenAI is currently doing becoming a self-acting agent.
  10. @Davino maybe as a part of some bigger US trip. It would be quite crazy to fly to US just to see Leo.
  11. @Davino If the tour ever materialized Leo also needs to come to Europe, Lisbon or Porto in Portugal would be great, but any place in the EU with good flights to will do.
  12. Technically speaking, @Leo Gura's teachings create self-aware arrogant nerds who argue hippie fools on spiritual topics day and night. Hi, it's me.
  13. Don't hide your own human decisions of the personal self under the guise of them coming from the impersonal self. I will tell you how it looks from the third perspective. Your ego got obliterated and now you are scared shitless to dive in again, so the ego being ego starts to make grandiose claims and decisions to legitimatize its fear-based decision. I advise a dose of self-skepticism towards thoughts such as the ones described in the opening post.
  14. @forestfog Still as insane as always, with all this suing talk. Have they informed their customers about the presence of illegal Psilocybin still present in those mushrooms? It's good that they finally got the reference standard. I am still staying skeptical of all their claims. They have proven to be unserious people. Need extraordinary evidence to change my opinion.
  15. At this point the benchmarks posted are bullshit, I tell you. Correct answers are all included in the training data set and the Claude Opus thing is only better at recalling the answers it already knows. It's real reasoning skills are still utter shit. GPT-4 is still unbeaten in many ways. Neither system is really intelligent.
  16. Not really. You make LOTS of assumptions that aren't true. New big corporations start as venture capital investments and not garage projects. Old are often by products of old money or financed by governements. Just because there's Apple and Amazon it doesn't mean it's the default story.
  17. Not necessarily. I think you are making many assumptions that are not grounded in data. But they could be. With some examples, some scientific papers. I am just not convinced by your way of arguing by assertively and repeatedly stating your opinion. Without the empirical grounding, you know.
  18. @Bobby_2021 I have no problem with your argument, just with the jump you do at the end. "All problems with corporations come from the government." It sounds like an ideological positition. And I am not even sure what ideology you are arguing for. Do you wamt less regulation, more regulation, or different regulations than the ones currently enacted?
  19. Completely change the type of questions you ask. Stuff like "Do you like pierogi?" and not her bank account info. You ran out of questions the moment you started asking what her major is. You need to learn how to be a conversationalist and learn some social games. Like why would you ever ask someone's major? Guess and make it fun. "You look like someone who loves flowers and working outside, so I guess you study... Computer Science! No?" Whatever stupid shit you come up with. You are forbidden to ask a question you have asked in the past the next time you talk to a girl. FORBIDDEN! You are even forbidden to ask what's her name. Get more creative with what you ask, that's a challange for you.
  20. The hell? The only thing this response says is that she is a normal human and OP is a creep. And a weirdo. @sda My man, tell us first how did you get the idea to text her that? Maybe that would explain a few things and allow to give an advice. Till then, enjoy anthem made just for us, guys hanging out at the weird bald guy's forum in their free time.
  21. You might enjoy a book called "Let My People Go Surfing" by Yvon Chouinard, who actually is an intelligent billionaire. A pretty honest at that, admitting that overall the existence of his company (Patagonia) is detrimental to the environment and not helpful, even though they do many things that hurt potential profit. They can do that only thanks to that Chouinard keeps the company in his family private hands, if he didn't the company would need to maximize the value for shareholders as all publicly traded companies have to do. Another interesting book to read that is partially on the topic of billionaires is Peter Joseph's "The New Human Rights Movement: Reinventing the Economy to End Oppression" Or Anand Giridharadas' "Winners Take All.
  22. Company towns existed before the rise of modern social liberal democracies and I can tell you they were not pleasant places to live. https://medium.com/@elliotmashhadi/the-dark-history-of-company-towns-abandoned-ghost-towns-0ebe11deeae1 Companies operating in the capitalist system are pretty much expected to cut corners without regulations. Why would they do that? To have more capital, so they can invest and gain more capital without being productive. Being a rentier, the wet dream of every capitalist.
  23. Read their biographies. Interesting reads and plenty of examples. Gates, Jobs and Musk biographies are all worthwhile. Even you living somewhere is harming some living beings elsewhere. It's a question of how far can you see the consequences of your actions. And the bigger your actions, the bigger the possibilities for harmful consequences. You should bring an example to this discussion, to make the point less abstract. because in theory, the chances of billionaire making others suffer on their way to riches is too probable to assume they didn't.
  24. This is the closest approximation of what personal bias is that I’ve seen in thread, by a long shot.
  25. @Danioover9000 How is Leo mentioning something an argument for the worthiness of analyzing someone's presentation when judging quality of their arguments? Don't answer, I am just pointing out a lack of logic in your post. I see no value in purely discussing the messenger.
