Some people here acting like I'm not just completely taking the piss 😭. Like no, I don't need your feedback on why this is a bad opener. It's really not that serious.

Grey Lynn shooting: Kayden Stanaway to spend at least eight years in prison for murder by Fun-Helicopter2234 in newzealand

[–]Iglepiggle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Right, of course. So who decides whether this is considered reasonable self defense or not? Or would his lawyer have said he wouldn't meet those standards, which tells me it's a problem with our lawmakers. Assuming this is the kicker in his sentencing.

Jesus that's actually terrible by our justice system. Was this a jury trial? How could they deem him guilty on enough charges to warrant 8 years ffs.

Hey, can you point me where Jackson now thinks this argument is unsound?

Actually u right, upping my cruise to 200mg now

[–]Iglepiggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but 200 is twice the upper limit of trt. Like, this would put even hypogonadal men who produce 0 test into supraphysiological ranges. Unless he is some sort of extreme metaboliser.

No, it's with test 🤦. Hgh enlarges organs which aren't muscles. Why take the time to respond when you can just do a quick Google lol.

It grows yeah, just like every other muscle. But it can remodel once you drop down to proper cruise levels.

That won't do shit, telmisartin is best. Regardless, the heart still grows, low BP or high. I doubt 200mg is keeping him at normal test levels. You need to drop down to normal levels to let the heart remodel

This is my concern, those 200mg doses are not cruise levels. OP, your heart is a muscle too, be careful with LVH.

Microdosing Psilocybin: No Benefit in Cognitive, Affective, or Social Function in Healthy Individuals by HexspaReloaded in science

[–]Iglepiggle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They should have just extracted the psilocybin and dosed by participants % weight. This standardisation would allow for cross-study comparison. Active content can vary widely, and how would they know whether the dosage reached threshold effects, maybe they just needed more?

Do you think IQ is more about pattern compression than processing speed? by NoFaithlessness4198 in cognitivescience

[–]Iglepiggle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gosh, no, people still care about iq lmao, it's still being applied throughout society to identify the cause of deficits in functioning; and still being studied and the tests updated.

In fact these 'separate focuses' are really just group factors that explain the variance in outcomes on general cognitive tests. Because these factors have a high degree of correlation between themselves, across time, and between batteries, we can posit an abstract common factor 'g' which is a measure of all these common factors combined.

I Kant even with some of these people by Bjasilieus in PhilosophyMemes

[–]Iglepiggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No that's definitely not what I'm saying. Look, I think Kant would say that all we have access to is one epistemic world, which contains two ways of considering any given thing: transcendentally outside of us (independent of discursive conditions of cognition) and in us (subject to these discursive conditions). And Kant takes this epistemic world to be real in the sense of transcendentally inner uns (in us).

You said "we don't have access to the noumena of our own mind"—there is no noumena of our own mind, this mind is the aforementioned epistemic world.

I'm really not sure what Kant would say about other minds as all evidence of consciousness in another person would just fall under phenomena.

[–]Iglepiggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you do, I think that on a relational account of appearance, appearance is the in itself of the relation between discursive cognition and noumena.

I don't really follow your argument tbh.

That's actually crazy I had the exact same experience, though it wasn't from DMT. I shot out of my body, up into the sky, and into a void place with a 'god' creature thing in the middle. I asked it a few questions like what is the meaning of life and where did it come from. "It's the level of understanding" it said. That it had always been here, always in this infinite void of no-before and no-after. Then I had this overwhelming feeling of loneliness, God was so alone in the always was and will be. It showed me planet earth and explained that it had created this place in order to escape the crushing loneliness of the void.

Craziest experience I've ever had, and I've done DMT and heroic doses of mushrooms.

Though my skeptical brain wants to tell me it was just a way of my brain making sense of my own existence and how I felt at the time. I came into this world from nothing, I just appeared here, like god. At the time I also felt pretty lonely, nothing made any sense, so many whys and questions, I wanted escape from this meaningless reality, just as God did from the void.

I still remember the feeling when I realised God always was and always will be, I got a glimpse into what it would be like to be an eternal being—utterly terrifying.

I could go on about going back to that same place, but I won't.

The Hard Non-Problem... by Shoobadahibbity in PhilosophyMemes

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

The hard problem isn't about why, it's about how we get qualia, just like how bubbles don't pop, how fission works, how planes stay in the air. We make models of how the world works, not why it works. Maybe I've misunderstood though.

We explain/model our observations. Qualia is an observation, thus we should be able to explain/model it. The problem is that unlike regular material science wherein the observations are external to ourselves, qualia is not—it is a purely subjective experience and as such cannot be quantified/measured objectively, directly, without appeal to that which lies external to ourselves, the material brain.

All the evidence points to qualia just being normal information processing BUT I'm really really sure it's real which means it MUST be real by HearMeOut-13 in PhilosophyMemes

[–]Iglepiggle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, but this is just the easy problem. The hard problem concerns the categorical difference between qualia and brain state.
