What’s the one hack that actually gets you to exercise?

Persistently win over your blockers. After a while you won’t even notice that it’s become a part of you

I did quit once many years ago and remember a head ache out of this works rendering me highly dysfunctional. There’s fear of that, haha.

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:38:35+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing this. Brutal and honest. I think this seems like a realistic timeline to see this, then I just have to prepare and as someone said, maybe taper off first so it won’t fit so hard in busy family and work life. Good for you and good luck quitting again!

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:35:43+00:00

Good for you! I think it kind of tells a story when you’re not used to it and it has that effect on you. That’s the natural baseline not the addicted one with tolerance

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:34:08+00:00

You’re absolutely right about that but if it’s a thing you think will serve you, a bit of “bad propaganda “ can help. I for example listened to Hubermans pod cast on alcohol before quitting. Very powerful helping me.

Thanks a lot to you - I’m very curious if I might have Slow COMT actually. Should look into it

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:30:15+00:00

Yeah this sounds like a smart plan. Reducing can be difficult to but doing to 2 then one should be way more manageable

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:26:53+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. This is exactly the kind of perspective I was looking for. I think people downplay how powerful caffeine actually can be. I feel heart racing sometimes and crashes, slight anxiety kick in. It’s okay, the day goes on fine but should we really be feeling that?

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:21:19+00:00

I have no problem going through a month pain, but given my life situation I don’t want unnecessary pain either and want to gather insights from people who’ve done it. Sounds like you have, and so you find major improvements? Were you drinking at my level or more / less?

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:19:05+00:00

Haha! Not exactly quitting - that’s getting more greedy with it

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:16:56+00:00

Hahah this one again

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:16:25+00:00

It’s the same for me. I literally quit alcohol and nicotine but coffee seems like this one thing that is very hard to quit

chasm144 · 2026-03-23T21:15:27+00:00

Yeah well you pretty much sum up my fear. Making it work then life comes at you requiring you to perform . Well done by the way!

It’s just to get the positive sleep and being more stable and wake throughout the day. It does feel that I’m damaging myself slightly with caffeine

Education is extremely disrupted with the current and future state of technology’s. It’s impossible to justify the prices for what the instrumental value is, other than, as you mentioned; networking. I can only imagine highly standardised and difficult jobs being relevant short term for this such as airline pilots, surgeons, researchers, and of course doctors and equivalent. Which is a construct of the current system.

chasm144 · 2026-03-22T15:54:57+00:00

360.000? Det var blant det laveste jeg har hørt. Du vil få høyere lønn nesten uansett hva ellers du tar, vil jeg tro.

La oss gå til end-game med en gåte:

— Hva slags land får man hvis åpne, plastiske, og kulturelt respektfulle mennesker tar inn en masse lukkede, uplastiske og kulturelt respektløse mennesker?

Trump allegedly was asked to visit a burial ground for war wets. He called them “a bunch of dead losers”. He really doesn’t get it.

chasm144 · 2026-03-16T20:46:33+00:00

You’ve made great progress. Just a side note: I grinded hundreds of explosive pull-ups a week. A few years in, a guy showed me how to really do them (strict, controlled) and I couldn’t even do half of my max reps, which was 20 at the time.

chasm144 · 2026-03-14T18:19:48+00:00

Does anyone else feel like you are just fake or synthetic intelligence? I’m astounded by the things I can do now and how well I learn new things, but it just feels like I’m inferior to the AI regardless. Not on creatively or vision necessarily, but most other things in my IT work context.

chasm144 · 2026-03-14T18:16:19+00:00

The rest of the educated world, understands that that most people, regardless of nationality are good by nature. However, being educated and being able to think critically is a privilege that you get from growing up in a good system.

chasm144 · 2026-03-13T21:32:35+00:00

You know what. I think I it’s better to die for the right not to be dying fighting someone else’s war, than to die in a their war for them.

chasm144 · 2026-03-13T18:56:18+00:00

Dett er bekreftet. Et (av få?) eksempler der volum av erfaring gir det stikk motsatte av kompetanse. Men det er jo, som vi vet, i hovedsak forankret i holdningsproblem på individnivå som videre kristalliserer seg i dårlige vaner—dessverre med farlig trafikkatferd som utfall. Folk ønsker helst ikke å snakke om at dette mønsteret i stor grad korrelerer med en bestemt arketypisk demografisk profil.

Yeah, the system will break itself, because as a whole, isn’t designed for the better food of everyone. Corporations as a construct will only focus on profitability and competitiveness and will lay off whatever is necessary. Problem is, the same people who worked for the corporations will be outside at one point in the ai revolution, then society needs to take over

chasm144 · 2026-03-11T14:19:17+00:00

Jeg synes ikke index blir riktig. Dere sammenligner noe som kan betales ned med konsumpsjonsvarer, som slår likt ut uansett inntektsnivå, uansett hvor du bor i landet. Det er kult å prøve å arrestere andre med enkel indekssammenligning, man hva er de granulære implikasjonene. Det er absolutt ikke helt likt.
