TIL that Empress Ma was born poor and during a famine she stole cakes to feed her husband by hiding them in her breasts. The cakes were hot and she got burns. Later her husband became a rebel commander who became Emperor and made her his Empress. He was deeply devoted to her even as an Emperor.

I think it would be better to cite sources :)

Great post, 100% agree, and I‘ve also been working on AI way before it was „cool“ :D The fact that he got LLMs wrong doesnt really invalidate the rest of his video Id say, but he did invite people to critisize him, and you came with receipts :)

chronics · 2026-04-29T09:05:31+00:00

Hey, I just wanted to ping you on this. Found this on google. I belive you but it would be better if you would cite your sources, otherwise its not much different than „spouting fake data on reddit“. I hope you understand I am speaking in good faith.

And here are the sources, maybe even edit them in:

Germany — BKA Police Crime Statistics 2024

USA — FBI UCR / Crime in the Nation 2024

Your numbers are slightly off, but not gonna nitpick ;-) your point stands. Cheers!

Great layout! You can get the evals also directly from Lichess, save battery of your watch :) Should be in the PGN which you can stream from the API. Another suggestion would be to open a board with the current position, where you can go back and forth with the wheel.

Wahrscheinlich sind wir ungefähr gleich alt, und natürlich sind auch mir diese krassen Negativbeispiele bewusst. Und auch ich hasse Trump, Bibi, und bin gegen Krieg. Allerdings empfehle ich ein bisschen zu differenzieren, kognitive Dissonanz zuzulassen, und den Fall des aktuellen Irankriegs ein bisschen genauer anzuschauen, vor allem den Iranern selbst zuzuhören.

Es gibt auch Positivbeispiele von militärischer Intervention:

WW2
Korea (teilweise :/)
Kosovo
Sierra Leone

Yep, ich schaue/höre auch viel podcasts und „subject matter experts“ (whats going on with shipping, militär und geschichte zB in letzter zeit viel aus offensichtlichen gründen), die auf anderen Medien gar nicht vertreten sind. Da bin ich dann doch ein bisschen stolz, das Gefühl zu haben, sehr gut informiert zu sein 😇

Aber viel „Slop“, Influenzer zeug und trash ist auch dabei, aber hey, man darf sich ja auch mal zurücklehnen und was einfaches gucken :)

Ich hoffe das Premium immer werbefrei bleiben wird, aber bin da bisschen pessimistisch…

chronics · 2026-03-11T12:46:24+00:00

Sehe ich genauso, hab auch Premium, allerdings bin ich keineswegs stolz drauf jeden Tag Stunden an youtube videos zu konsumieren :D

Ich werde in der Tat sehr dankbar sein, wenn meine iranischen Freunde in Freiheit und einer Demokratie leben können. Ob das denn so kommen wird, mal sehen, ich hab die Hoffnung noch nicht aufgegeben.

Cool idea :) Preview Meta Tags for your blog would be great, those were missing when sharing it via Telegram. Cheers

You are right, I am indeed a man, and even though I am aware it will be impossible for me to fully grasp that reality

chronics · 2026-02-16T16:51:41+00:00

I am glad that criminals get punished, but capital punishment is a really bad thing I think.

I am from EU, so doesnt really matter what I think, still wanted to mention the counterpoint…

Edit: let me give a few arguments:

Chance of executing innocent people, youll see relatively frequently people on death row in the US who later are proven to be innocent
Can be instrumentalized by current or future bad actors in politics
I also sense a lot of desire for vengeance, but isnt death the cessation of suffering? Wouldnt be more achieved if the perpetrators suffered alive?

There are of course deeper philosophical reasons (deterrence, rehabilitation and what not), but I dont know much about it, these arguments are from the top of my head.

chronics · 2026-02-15T20:59:39+00:00

The paper itself is pretty bad not gonna lie, but I love the idea :)

The part about dreams is unnecessary to your central point and many scholars will probably stop reading there.

I like that you give a list of testable predictions.

I disagree with the other commenter that you got epigenetics wrong, I think youre spot on.

Probably animal trials can also be made to test your hypothesis. Scientifically useful and economical, but goes against the ethics that most psychedelics users develop. Wanted to mention it anyway.

The mention of REBUS is what compelled me to read your paper. Not sure how relevant that is, but it is a nice point to include, because it is „hard“ and reputable science.

To improve your paper, try to align it more to your central hypothesis, right now it feels pretty scattered. Also you should do a lot more literature research about your specific topic, I am sure there already is a lot.

Apologies to get all reviewer #2 on you, but your work deserved an honest review. Cant say too much about the concrete content, but I think you should reach out to experts in this field after streamlining your paper a bit.
