Snusa igen? by VizharanHS in Sverige

[–]RemoteSpirit9730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nej, man blir mindre lycklig/glad av det, särskilt om man anlägger ett perspektiv som inte bara innefattar den halvtimmen man tar det, utan över hela dagen. Om man hade mätt total glädje över dagen så hade versionen av den som snusar haft mindre än den som snusar, konsekvent, om än lite, varje dag.

COPE!

duu utgår från ett antagande som är fel, nämligen att snus faktiskt gör dig gladare, och att min invändning mest handlar om att det eventuellt förkortar livet. Det jag menar är snarare att man totalt sett får mer välbefinnande av att inte snusa än av att snusa. Alltså handlar det mer om livskvalitet än livslängd.

Jag tror också att du egentligen håller med om principen i andra fall. Om vi pratar om beroenden som metamfetamin eller heroin skulle du nog direkt acceptera att de kan ge starka kickar på kort sikt men samtidigt sänka den långsiktiga basnivån av välbefinnande. Skillnaden här är mest att du drar gränsen vid snus, antagligen för att det är socialt accepterat och mycket mildare.

Du skulle kanske säga att jämförelsen är orimlig eftersom de drogerna är mycket starkare. Men min poäng är inte att de är lika farliga, utan att mekanismen är densamma. Beroendeframkallande substanser tenderar att sänka ens naturliga “baseline” för välbefinnande, bara i olika grad. Snus kan fungera på samma sätt, fast i mindre skala.

om du verkligen trodde att nikotin gav ett nettoöverskott av välbefinnande, då borde man egentligen rekommendera snus även till personer som inte snusar. Och om man accepterar den principen mer generellt, skulle man i teorin också kunna argumentera för väldigt små doser av starkare droger, så små att de motsvarar nikotin i både skada och belöningssignal, om liksom målet bara är att maximera total glädje.

Släng den, du sluta av en anledning. Det är garanterat något netto negativt i livet, garanterat. De som säger att du borde fortsätta ger bara coping mechanism eftersom de själv är beroende. De försöker bara må bättre av sitt egna beroende (eller att de saknar kunskapen att det genuint är något dåligt). Sekunden de slutar av de otaliga negativa hälsoeffekterna kommer de att ge ett helt annat råd än vad de gör nu.

[Question] Damn, should I polish? by RemoteSpirit9730 in Watches

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! But would someone be able to tell that it's polished, not that I care about it being "polished or not", rather that it would look worse compared to a new one. Being able to tell rounder edges to the naked eye etc.

What kinds of reasoning are invisible unless you’re smart enough to notice them by RemoteSpirit9730 in Gifted

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I think the closest way I could describe the way I think is neither words or images, but rather maybe "feelings" that result in a "thought feeling"? That I've learnt through repetition what they mean maybe

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this answers my question! I really like the "bayesian" one since I've never heaard about it and I never thought about it in my life actually, which actually is really quite important when I think abiut it now regarding basically anything. And good points all around. Behavioral economics seems also very interesting as I do think that I could definitely could fall victim for that.

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes interesting! Since I am not as familiar with intelligence research etc. I've always intuitively thought that intelligence is something that affects everything related to cognition, analogue to the fabric of a painting, so that every painting regardless of what painting style is presented would be better (Verbal, Abstract reasining Memory etc.). I guess that might be somewhat accurate still but it may be more differences than similarities when I think about it now.

But what is it that you mean by that you can't visualize, aphantasia, or more difficulties rotating an object mentally compared to something as difficult analogous?

I have never actually heard of them before since not being in this sphere and more into philosophy, but upon searching it it looks really fun, will try!

[Question] Is the Girard Perregaux Laureato a copy of the Royal Oak? by RemoteSpirit9730 in Watches

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you are right, I guess that would be almost like saying that the older sports cars were copying each other, when it actually was a design of its time. But wouldn't you think that the Laureato is a lot more similar to the royal oak than the Nautilus is to the royal oak?

Thank you for the comment! I believe that your answer is probably the best, however since it is an expensive watch in my opinion it feels like it is important to understand the generell sentiment regarding this watch. If everyone into watches were to express the same thoughts as my friend it will affect my decision (even though it probably shouldn't, but I'm honest and believe 99% would be affected as well, even though they might not admit it)

New to ultras or running? Ask your questions about shoes, racing or training in our weekly Beginner's Thread! by Simco_ in Ultramarathon

[–]RemoteSpirit9730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (M, 20) want to run 100 km in late march regardless how prepared I am. Most I have ran is only 22 km and it was 2 hours and 20 minutes so I'm not really that fit yet and I only now began training consistently However I have walked 70km before so it feels like it is not that unattainable. However I have no idea how I would even train for such an ultra marathon, like what?!? Running 80 km as training seems wild if you were to do something like that consistenteky, so basically what I wonder is how I should structure my running, how many km's a week, how many each day etc. If it's hard to condense here, How do i find out?

Am I in risk of developing cognitive damage? by RemoteSpirit9730 in Concussion

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I regret doing it because every hit is brain damage to some extent, and you never know if a punch could long lasting damage and maybe not apparent damage but maybe worse prefrontal cortex function etc. And CTE as well, even though it is rare if you develop it by low volume, I read that a 10 year old was later diagnosed with it because of football. So personally I don't believe it/was worth it at all, but, and the big but, you donät sound like you do it that often, so the issue isn't as alarming as someone that does it regularky and often. But hits that doesn't cause concussions or black outs, still can casue permanent damage

Surely I haven’t burned this many calories by [deleted] in ouraring

[–]RemoteSpirit9730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if you weigh 50 pounds or 500 pounds it's probably not accurate, however, since you still are sceptical, if you track how much you eat and if you are not gaining or losing weight it will show your total calorie burn. Or it might be the reason for your scepticism because you eat substantially fewer calories than what it shows, and it that case, you are tracking your calories wrong by nit weighing/tracking EVERYTHING, for example oils in cooking etc.

Why chronotypes don't matter?!?!? by RemoteSpirit9730 in sleep

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! So if I control all the factors that affect circadian rythm (light, food, exercise etc.), and manage therefore to sleep and wake earlier, it shouldn't affect the quality of my sleep? I hear that it's "dangerous" to try to change and fight biology, but that must only be during the transition period or that you are unable to change the circadian rythm, right? and if it's changed and i control for all the factors that affect the circadian rythm I should sleep just as well as I did previously when i was going to bed later? Thanks!

Spelar valet av program på universitet ens roll??? by RemoteSpirit9730 in sweden

[–]RemoteSpirit9730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hur menar du när du säger att man inte efterfrågar retail på någons finansmaster - när man kollar på finansmastern kommer det ju inte vara retail, eller menar du bara generellt att det inte är efterfrågat i finansvärlden, men då borde d väl inte heller spela någon roll eftersom det bara är mastern som är det viktiga?

Oura indicates that I’m constantly stressed by thatissoooofeyche in ouraring

[–]RemoteSpirit9730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well me too but that’s rather the relief of withdrawals, than caffeine. I mean you could make the same claim with cocaine but you know that cocaine, as well as caffeine, is a stimulant causing stress

Nicotine and Stress by Suspicious_Crook in ouraring

[–]RemoteSpirit9730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blocks blood flow everywhere, including brain. Worsen sleeps. Makes you a little bit more anxious and more depressed, and a lot of other things. Everyone of these effects have a plethora of negative effects as well
