Thoughts on this?
I just finished it and I wish I had discovered this during college.
Also, what the fuck is "deep work"? It seems to me like he defines it as a very focused state, instead of just not distracting with your phone or dicking around 4chan while you work. So how do I know if I'm doing "deep work" or just non-painfully-distracted "shallow work".

Btw he was an absolute QT when he was younger.

Why? Why are experimental vaccines released to young people. No long term studies of these vaccines exist. What happens when some new variant like the delta variant comes along that is a lot more deadly to the vaccinated. What happens when new vaccines more effective are developed and are incompatible with the current vaccine.
How is this mass child abuse going through?
Young healthy humans who still have their whole life in front of them are being abused as guinea pigs for big pharma.

I'm 36, KHV, NEET, and due to autism, anxiety, childhood obesity, and circumcision, I feel like I missed out on so many essential human experiences of 18-30, the prospect of life extension and anti-aging are one of the few things that keeps me going.
Cryonics is still a possibility, but it seems like such a longshot.

How can I retain the most/study the most effectively using a textbook?
What I'm currently doing is writing things I think are important in a separate notebook, not as a reference further on but rather as a means of augmenting my retention. I used to also highlight/underline, but I've come to find that that's a waste of time and is pointless, as marking something I already know won't do anything, while noting it down might.

However, I feel like writing things down as much as I do is terribly inefficient (waste of time, could go through a textbook way faster without) and doesn't actually accomplish better retention, as once I've read something it's usually in my head (can't always recall it immediately though). And my notes are pretty redundant, so I probably just suck at it too (OCD, want to write down everything).

What do? How do you study? General studying tips welcome too (especially Math and Comp Sci).

How does one achieve this

Is scat play scientifically safe

I remember back in undergrad — in my first meta math course (the Godel one) — my prof was finishing up teaching the idea of successors and proved the rather surprising and not-at-all obvious fact that 2 + 2 = 4. Then I realized a thought that I still can’t quite articulate, but goes something like this: isn’t it surprising that the basic rules of inference and math are the same EVERY TIME? It suggests that there is a structure to logic itself.

What maintains that structure? Is it like the characters in Plato’s cave casting shadows on the wall? How is the information in that underlying structure stored, like a big, cosmic, fundamental spreadsheet?

And is conscious necessary for this? If so, it’s interesting and not-at-all an accident that we all agree on what the ‘rules’ or logic are.

What’s the latest scientific consensus on red wine? Does it have any health benefits or not?

Found these documents over at an abandoned government building. Trying to figure out what the fuck these ingredients are for. You guys got any ideas?
