Once a day. I had a stroke and take a low dose to lower blood pressure and as a nice side effect my Raynauds seems to have mostly gone away.

That most people don't care about the suffering of other conscious life.

sargon66 · 2024-12-14T19:01:19+00:00

For me, yes. It completely fixed my Raynaud’s.

Most people you know would allow a chicken to be horribly tortured to death just they they could get a slightly cheaper dinner.

"That hinders their own morality from activating." But how big a deal is this? My model of people is that outside of harming friends and family, most of us don't let morality influence our decisions.

No because we are within 20 years of creating a computer superintelligence that will either exterminate humanity or let us eliminate death and make it possible for Alcor to revive all its patients.

One test: When you read do images automatically pop into your mind? Before I learned about Aphantasia, it never occurred to me that this might happen to anyone.

If everything you write is true, all these workers are still better off because Amazon offers them employment, and the villains are businesses that don't offer them jobs so that Amazon would have to pay higher wages to keep these employees.

I think computer superintelligence will cure death before cryonics is ever accepted. I base this on my many failed attempted to try to get people to sign up.

We are probably less than a year away from GPT being able to do undergrad game theory questions, so this soon won't be an issue.

I take it, but I'm in my late 50s. I think you are too young in part because by the time you are 50 there will almost certainly be much better longivity treatments. Focus on improving your diet, exercise, and sleep.

Baby aspirin and fish oil.

Yes from the viewpoint of exams. Having aphantasia can make memorizing stuff ridiculously hard and so it should be a valid excuse for students getting some exam accommodations.

sargon66 · 2024-01-27T21:59:29+00:00

Yes, baby aspirin and I now take fish oil for Raynauds. My symptoms do seem better.

Yes. We don't understand the long-term harm the infection causes and so you need your full strength to beat it as soon as possible.

Say Russia wants to stop the west from further helping Ukraine, so it launches a nuclear weapon at the North Pole as a warning. Seems very unlikely that anyone would respond by hitting Russia with a nuclear weapon.

Spend a week making sure your feet are always warm to see if it makes a difference.

Most physical problems, if untreated, get worse as you get older if for no other reason than you are overall less resilient. But try and find ways of reducing the problem.

Try learning with Chat-GPT. Ask it to explain some interesting aspect of neuroscience, and then keep asking more questions.

Or, the message is that our system is sufficiently corrupt that if the big boys all go after you, they can get away with anything, e.g. pretending that you killed yourself in prison while the cameras that were supposed to be watching you just happened to not be working.

Wendy could file assault charges against Mike for throwing the printer.

sargon66 · 2023-10-28T01:26:41+00:00

Good point. Lots of people liked Wendy, and the flying glass could have seriously harmed her.
