professionally observe "When told something, do not reply with 'I will think about it'. Say 'I will try it'"

@jackfriks Think about all of the mental energy you’re spending making this decision. And all of the tweets. Just buy the monitor. It will literally help you be more productive.

The moment I stopped thinking about myself
Stopped analyzing
Stopped journaling
I actually built something
And my life got 1000x better
David Senra@davidsenra
Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.

@alexbilz I like your posts, but is this actually or are you joking?

I would have to bet this was AI-produced.

@Pat_Stedman @Xants_CityDG the OP does not bother me much, it is just that structurally you made the same generalization, but dismissed what other guy said. The only difference between two statements is "odds are". However I doubt Xants actually meant "always". Thus, you dismissed your own opinion
English
@enterFlaneur @Xants_CityDG I said "odds are" which is correct. There are always exceptions, but be wary living your life on them.
Also note I said single women not those in relationships, so you can have low notch girls but they've been still having sex frequently before you.
English
I've been telling guys - nothing wrong with your preferences, but just be aware they rarely come without tradeoffs.
If a woman is single for a long time and doesn't have sex, the odds are it's because she's not very interested in it.
Aella@Aella_Girl
You're selecting for a low sex drive woman. In my data, women with 50+ bodycount report having sex with their partner 2.7x a week. But women with 1 sexual partner have sex 1.6x a week. This is one of the biggest differences in the relationships of high vs low bodycount women!
English
@Pat_Stedman @Xants_CityDG In the original post YOU made a generalization of the same type
English
@Xants_CityDG You can't generalize all women who've engaged in casual sex like this. Some are novelty seekers like you describe but for others it's just horniness or distraction. When they're with a guy they like they don't look back.
WHY a girl did what she did is what you have to ascertain.

@sean_a_mcclure Yet another post dismantling modern(outdated) science. This time with even more elaborate analogy. Love to see it👏
English
Martial arts only work when the opponent comes at you a certain way.
An agreed-upon set of rules and movements that guarantee elegance.
This is why it works in movies, but not in real life.
In the real world, someone attacks in a flurry. Highly stochastic, extremely unmanageable.
But people love the idea that they can figure things out. They want to see the platonic shapes inside the mess, and imagine themselves a master of those forces.
Today’s science is little different.
It only works when nature is forced to come at us a certain way. We necessitate nature into a box via experimentation and theoretical analysis. We get her to move along the fictitious lines we draw.
An agreed-upon set of rules and movements that guarantee elegance. The flurry of nature made manageable through contrived methods that have little to do with how she actually works.
But people love the idea that they can figure things out. They want to see the platonic shapes inside the mess, and imagine themselves a master of those forces.
And so we keep telling ourselves stories about the untangling and taming of nature.
A grand illusion fit for the big screen.

@sean_a_mcclure If too many currencies adopt this , then soft error propagations will be easier to happen. Though I sense there might be an issue with my intuition
English
@sean_a_mcclure That makes sense. Though am I missing something, because maybe it would somewhat work even with a very simple algorithmic system, because cryptomarket is itself very contrived, thus it will sort of offer wiggle room, but only when there aren't too many similar currencies
English
An interesting downside to cryptocurrencies, beyond the usual claim that they fail the three classic properties of money, is their lack of dynamism and ability to adapt.
A hard supply cap creates rigidity that encourages hoarding and deflation rather than fluid economic exchange, unlike fiat systems that can expand or contract liquidity in response to economic conditions.

@sean_a_mcclure I imagine it as a surface where signal could propagate and while most crypto could only grow or shrink it's shape, but not really change the shape itself. This currency will be soft. And bc other currencies are hard the error wouldn't propagate as much, thus "containing" it?

@GamersNexus @PatrickMoorhead "if you want to bake a cookie from scratch, YOU MUST FIRST INVENT THE FUCKING UNIVERSE" type shit.
English
@PatrickMoorhead If you used tokens and AI, you did not, in fact, "personally build" it. Millions of people whose work was stolen built it. You benefited from it.
English
I had a good friend tell me the apps I created were trash because I didn't have a formal database. I took that as a challenge.
In 5 hours, I personally built, populated, and deployed a database containing all the content the company and analysts created over the past 15 years, press quotes, and social media posts, with integrated semantic and basic search and auto-updates. And is scalable to 10x the data. Tested it with 1,000 different queries that users would make. It works. :-)
Now it's time to connect the apps I created with embedded data to the new database. It cost me around $200 in tokens. Ironically, the most expensive part was scrubbing ten years of press quotes. Still a better deal than Meltwater or Muckrack.
The next step is to inject proprietary and protected data into it, with proper safeguards and attribution.

@CoreyJMahler Ah yes, impressionable idiot still falls for German propaganda 80 years later. Haha

If the Germans had won, we would be interstellar by now.
Yet the most we can manage is Musk playing with rockets that von Braun would have considered laughable — or pitiable — given the number of elapsed years.

late WW2 German engineering was unbelievable They built a B2 bomber out of plywood 50 years before we built the b2. It was a distillation of their will to defend their cities from allied bombers HO 229 is a 10/10 rabbit hole

@askmadness @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ "by using expletives or offensive language that’s threatening or likely to provoke immediate violence (“fighting words”)." thats quite a stretch from being arrested for online posts
English
English
English
@enterFlaneur @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ We already had this. You get arrested in the US, for insults.
English
@askmadness @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ That's quite different from "for being you" argument. But in case you want to entertain this new one, then in US you won't get arrested over insults
English
@enterFlaneur @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ Did you insulted someone? No dismissed, just different point of view.
English
@askmadness @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ 1. I was in United States recently and didn't get arrested for being myself, point dismissed. 2. Section 185 of the criminal code includes arrest as punishment for insults, point dismissed
English
@enterFlaneur @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ Actually it does, since, the reality proves excactly my point.
Show me one thing, where you get arrested for insults. In Germany
English
@askmadness @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ "you get arrested by just being you" that's neither evidence, nor an argument. What the fuck does that even mean? That doesn't invalidate what I've said. If by law you get arrested for insults, then by definition it's systematic
English
@enterFlaneur @MidwitRoyalty @Jonas_Thiel_ Aehm, you get arrested by just being you.
Are you that blind?
And it's not systematic here.

@Redlondon1917 @JulianWaller Not a single one is a real contradiction, just the current misunderstanding. Plus what the fuck is hot and cold contradiction?
English
@JulianWaller What about particle-wave duality, quantum superpositon, quantity - quality contradiction in phase changes, the logical relationship between up and down or hot and cold, the conflicted and contradictory nature of human desire and identity, etc.?
English
One reason you should never get too into Marxist theory is that you start thinking that "contradictions" are real things and not just a pretend logic that excuses you from reconsidering assumptions when the world doesn't meet expectations.
