Begin? 🤔🤔🤔

What year is this?

I am proud of you!

I am proud of your persistence in front of difficulties and challenges. I am proud of your achievements.

I am proud of you even if I haven’t told you before, I am proud even if I belittled you, even if I fucked up.

My behaviour and response to your efforts has nothing to do with you. Not a justification but it is about with my (generational) trauma and lack of seeing my own achievements. I would apologise for all the pain I caused to you if only my trauma allowed me to see, feel and realise all the pain I caused.

I think that, above all, I am proud that you are not repeating my own journey and you are a much better person than me.

I enjoyed listening him when was interviewed at this podcast https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/164-peter-turchin

His methodology and arguments are quite reasonable and sounding.

I would recommend

His paper has been published on Nature… this because everyone can say the “end is nigh” but few people can come with mathematical models for showing it 🙂

I think you are forgetting the right of killing and injuring.

Land of freedom!

/s (if not obvious)

I would say “interests at large” rather than dollars.

Ukraine is military strategic interest (nobody in Europe wants to have Russia to randomly decide to start a war with an EU country)

In Middle East (with oil) is dollars

In Taiwan is military strategic interest

On the other side of the spectrum? Myanmar, Gaza, random African conflicts, etc

Start weightlifting, more specifically deadlifts. I would discourage you to go to CrossFit and anything that involves mixing cardio with strength.

Also, use as little machines as possible. 99% of the work is with dumbbells, barbells and a rack

/me that had back pain in his late 20-mid 30… and then started weightlifting and had never had a back pain 🙂

In other news Katy Perry is an astronaut

Aren’t the copyrights still belonging to the original authors? What is Reddit suing for? The header and the footer? 🤔

I used to check all boxes. I feel I don’t check any box now (even if I should probably do therapy for minor stuff here and there).

I also try to give back and talk with my friends or even strangers. Still it’s astonishing how many people live in denial and refuse any change in their behaviour.

Research needs money for happening. You need to pay researchers, structures, various staff. Even more so a fancy structure as MIT

Israel (and American Zionists) have the power to cancel a sizeable amount of research contracts with MIT. (AIPAC shows how well organised they are, originally for defence from antisemitism, now for defence from… Palestine? I guess? 🤷‍♂️ )

Then for MIT (that is a corporation like another) comes to damage control. On one hand PR, on the other money.

MIT took the money, Stanford (in the case of DEI) took the PR.

I am still 100% sure neither of the two can give a damn of Palestinians, Israel or DEI. It’s just MBA stuff 🤷‍♂️

(I have my opinions on the situation in Palestine but I don’t want this post to be about that)

Wait how can you run Mac OS on a VM?!?

This 🙂

I have a lifetime Plex pass but still I am considering switching. Currently I have both Jellyfin and Plex on the same libraries but Jellyfin doesn’t have support for chromecast (on iOS and Firefox) nor support for offline . (Not) covering neither my at home nor travelling use cases 😕

And my crazy cousin claims that the earth is flat (not really but got the point)

What is the point of this headline beyond spreading outrage? (That is good for traffic I guess)

This kind of articles both left and right are just causing communities to fall apart for no good reason.

If this was said from public figures that would have been different. But a doctor can be crazy, it’s his right.

It’s not his right to get this much attention though

As a tall man grown up in an area with predominantly short people, I can tell you, as teenager, I desired countless times of being less tall.

I dated tall women (>185cm) from US and Europe. They fucking hate it.

I seriously doubt they were bragging in this message

It’s still more efficient than AI (and it seems world leader pretend to believe that AI will solve climate change 🤷‍♂️)

This is in addition to the cost of having the military.

If you don’t have a parade you don’t have to fix streets or move equipments, etc

Dude, this is not how humans work.

Humans need stories
