>>13852594>Was that an actual thing? I hate Sam Harris. I don't think the topic is as retarded as it sounds at first glance, though. At some point, you get so fucking proficient at a skill that it becomes deeply internalized and intuitive that it no longer taxes your working memory, at which point the increased creativity and thought connectivity can boost your performance.Is sam harris the guy who does the pop sci podcasts that all sound like they are based on psychedelia-logic??
Like stuff that sounds really 'deep' and meaningful with either that mental state or delivery/pitch, but the significance doesn't stand up to rational critical thought??
If it's the same guy, yea- hate is 'strong', but annoying...
yea simple concept - if you are competent at something and/or a user of a substance it makes complete sense for it to be performance enhancing.
some ppl have specific bad reactions to specific substances, a lot of people struggle to balance baseline performance if they are experimenting with specific substances
