one of the main downside to taking health and fitness seriously is it’s pretty lonely for being such an important part of your life

As I’ve said for years, jhanas will likely have a hard time going mainstream until someone figures out a better name for them

Guy BOOK IS LIVE! || CHECK BIO
Can't believe they've yassified seeing like a state
Dr. Dominic Ng@DrDominicNg

This is one of the best books I've ever read. The core problem C Thi Nguyen nails: we've handed our lives over to metrics. The issue is that any metric is a compression of something richer, and once the metric exists, we end up optimising for the metric instead of the thing it was supposed to measure. Examples: Step counts. Likes. School rankings. Citation counts. Calorie counts. Sleep scores. These numbers are so clear and easy to track, we start optimising for them. - A teacher starts teaching to the test because that's what the ranking measures. - A researcher picks safe topics because those get cited. - You post something you love, it gets 12 likes, and you feel like it wasn't worth sharing - because the number has become your sense of value. He calls it value capture - when a simplified score replaces the rich, complex thing it was supposed to represent. So what's the solution? He finds it in an unlikely place: games. In a game, simple goals are fine because you put it down when it's over. A gamified life has no "put it down" moment. But games also prove we have an ability most of us forget about: we can fully buy into a set of values and then choose to step back out. You do it every time you finish Monopoly and stop caring about plastic hotels. The fix then isn't abandoning metrics - it's noticing when a useful shorthand has become the thing you're living for. Seriously, read this book (it'll also bump your Goodreads number up by one if you need a reason.)

@rikardhjort ah yeah, if you’re further along that makes sense I’d recommend consuming a lot of media, working with iTalki tutor, record challenging sentences and put them in anki

@uberstuber i tried it and i hate it on account if there being no placement test and no good way to jump into the middle with a little bit of a primer. not spending all those hours just repeating the basics, im afraid.

has anyone actually read "antimemetics divison" ? i have questions to ask you. I have never seen any actual discussion of it, everyone keeps making the same stupid joke. I feel like it's hurting the book

Pope Leo XIV
Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex·
All men and women, especially Christians, are called to fix their gaze on those who suffer, on the pain of the lonely, and on those who are emarginated for various reasons, for without them we cannot build a just society. Only together can we build communities of solidarity capable of caring for everyone, in which wellbeing and peace can flourish for the benefit of all. Caring for the humanity of others helps us to live our own lives to the full.

@rikardhjort It’s a series of audio tapes with active recall and built in spaced repetition. It’s effective. Pretty basic but can get someone talking enough to travel around Japan comfortably. In the US there’s often copies at libraries
