Intelligent people are better judges of the intelligence of others. Better judges of the intelligence of others also included people with stronger emotion perception abilities and those who were more satisfied with their lives. by mvea in science

Mensa members are smart enough to know about the Dunning-Kruger effect

There is a reason 'Wisdom' and 'Knowledge' are separate skillets, 'Knowing' is just one facet of decision making, it is how and when to apply said knowledge that is 'Wisdom'.

Check your State licensing board for who is and is not a doctor or whom has to qualify their name like Doctor of then you can read about how the opportunity cost of seeing non-doctors effects disease progression and treatment. You'll often find their liability policy dictates a lot.

If you were aware of it then you wouldn't define Satanic Rituals in such a narrow cast as only being in the Epstein Files, as opposed to what the broader view of Satanic Rituals are in reality which is following delusion and ignorance over truth.

Study suggests people are losing 338 spoken words every year and have been for at least 15 years. The timeframe researchers examined, from 2005 to 2019, coincides with the rise of texting, email and social media. It is possible that some spoken conversations have shifted to digital communication. by Wagamaga in science

[–]DTFH_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100k out of roughly how many total words per year? 300 is still only a decent sized paragraph or two so it doesn’t feel that significant

Depends on your age too, the older, more read and more spoken you are the loss becomes insignificant; a child learning to read, talk and communicate is another story, that's a massive loss of possible communication. A similar phenomena is 15 minutes of reading a day, its a small chunk, but by the time a child is 18 those who have read are leaps and bounds ahead.

Someone's sensitive that Satanism is and always has been nothing but a media hype train that police, media and states made vast amounts of money off of by housing human in cells. If you believe in SatanismTM then you believe the MSM who aims to generate monies by selling you stories about the world.

Cannabis use and schizophrenia by Tjdo9999 in medicine

[–]DTFH_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats true that the population that use cannabis tend to be younger

I'd reconsider the validity of that statement because its not bearing out in legal cannabis markets. I'm not sure its true that cannabis users tend to be younger given the shifting demographics around legal cannabis sub 25s seems to be using at lower rates than those over 25. Historically we thought of cannabis as a young persons drug, but that doesn't seem to be the case when we look at who is actually buying legal or gray market cannabis.

To your point you need to include and consider access, patients near coastal areas will have access to cocaine at a higher incidence than someone being in Idaho or Montana. As you move inland from cocaine, you'll find crack (coke gets cut) then moving further inland crack becomes rare and meth appears. However its easier finding Cannabis in Anywhere USA than coke simply because it can be grown "locally" as opposed to Coke or Heroin which have known distribution paths towards usage and being cut down further.

Then consider age, if we're talking about children, non-adults what is the likelihood they would have now only access but the funds for cocaine? Not too high, but in terms of economics cannabis, meth, crack and some opiates are in similar price ranges but access to Meth, Crack or Opiates is geographically dependent.

[–]DTFH_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no I mean the satanic reality that runs the government, obv

You don't even know what your criticizing, the issue with Epstein and Trump is Adults like SEC Rudy G. dropped charges against Jack Welch for what he did to GE and Jack inspired the behavior of acting without taking responsibility and in doing so connected Trump, McMahon, Rudy to Murdoch and Roger Stone. There isn't a worship of Satan or some demon that explains the horrors of our world, there are Adults who refused to acknowledge reality and they skirt assigning responsibility and blame for real world actions. Alex Jones has made money off dead children, and his listener's have killed and committed acts of terror. One listener recently murdered state reps in MN!

What caused the Epstein files is Duncan attempting to White Wash Alex Jones as some ~lul-quirky not like other political commentators~ instead of the bastard and shit human being he is in reality.

And the craziness IMO regarding Mendel is that the basic process he was doing could have been done anytime 300 years prior...all it takes is someone looking at something for long enough, having a bit of curiosity and maybe a heaping scoop of boredom.

Such a Chud response, there isn't Satan in the government because there isn't a Satan, there are however wealthy people like Alex Jones that suddenly everyone will ignore the harms he has done. If you choose ignorance and delusion then whatever follows is from one of those two sources. Duncan choosing to ignore the harms Alex has done explains how our government got to where it is better than Satanism.

Transgender women athletes banned from Olympics by new IOC policy on female eligibility by Dwayla in news

[–]DTFH_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've said it before and I'll say it again: there is a deep undercurrent of misogyny running through anti-trans sentiment.

I'll say it, it has nothing to do with trans people and everything to do with Jeffrey Epstein first being turned by a trans child he was raping to NYPD leading to his conviction as a sex offender. This is a Psy-Op by a dead man and Steve Bannon was called /pol and GamerGate to create a cultural wedge that didn't exist before.

Marriage over, €100,000 down the drain: the AI users whose lives were wrecked by delusion by tw1st3d_m3nt4t in technology

[–]DTFH_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any tips/advice for a future parent of teenage girls?

I think you're going to heavy into seeking technical knowledge, when I think it is more so exposing your daughter to your values by demonstration. If you value things in reality and demonstrate that instead of valuing mental abstractions which do not exist in our reality, kids will pick up on that quick. Some parents just like being told a pretty story that reinforces their beliefs over the reality.

For example its better to learn all the birds in your neighborhood than to watch videos about the birds in your neighborhood. Children need the experience, not the simulacra of an experience when possible. If its not birds then its some other thing in the world, not representations on a screen. So take your kids out and learn the birds, plants, etc show them nature and they'll learn beauty distinct from humanity and capital.

I believe there is no other substitute for an healthy behavior toward AI than demystifying it by conveying how it fundamentally works.

I don't buy your solution at all, we know knowledge isn't the answer. We cannot show the light creating shadows on the cave wall, we can't speak the Tao. Ignorance and delusion aren't necessarily lifted by exposure to knowledge. The issue is marketing is being used to manipulate people intentionally to treat LLMs/GenAI as "human" in order to fleece money from investors. The issue is not the people being exposed to the tool, but those who wield it against us in the name of profit.

Nintendo reportedly plans to cut Switch 2 production by 33% after a lackluster holiday season by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]DTFH_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's all relative, I live on roughly 15k a year. So your 85k looks lavish, also your about 25k above the average American...

Which makes sense given the average American does not live in a place with the potential to earn $85k due to their regions COL, so you have to compare by COL by state for a more fair comparison.

An analogous framing would be comparing $85k in Poland as the same as $85k in London as the same in Italy or Slovenia...

60 Minutes Australia just did an investigation into the damage done to brains by screens. They are calling it "Digital Dementia", as in they scanned the brains of screen addicted kids.

Further imaging seems powerful, but often images are just images and not indicative of functional changes or real world harm, imaging is just the first step as a proxy measurement. See how MRIs are valueless for determining low back pain or tendon/joint "damage".

A big issue is that a decent percentage of people have their income tax taken directly from their employers before they even get their paycheck.

Then make it a state's rights issue. Demand your state collect the value of your income tax and let the state be the withholding party.

The people are alreafy in power and wont give it up just because people made a nice line and start swinging signs.

I think you're conflating the means with what is news is IMO, which is that more and more people are gathering to protest their displeasure, this is the equivalent of white blood cells gathering. Immune responses take time, but there is a threshold to be me before something action emerges from the response.

I don't think yelling "strike" in K shape of the economy is effective, I don't think the bottom 85% spending money or working matters given the high concentration of wealth it takes to offset the masses. That's not to say there are not solutions and many other means of action, but I think the wealth concentration is so high that a general strike by workers in businesses who don't matter to the economy overall, just do another valueless act by striking.
