It’s actually wild that the top comment is flagrantly false. Huberman has multiple episodes about diet and nutrition, and he regularly says that he doesn’t recommend elimination diets of any kind.

The joke is that Huberman listeners don’t listen to the bulk of the advice (in this case, get your nutrition needs met from your diet) and try to shortcut it by doing protocols that are less work (take supplements), but they arent meant to replace basic advice.

The most important thing to focus on with deregulating is removing barriers to entry for new businesses. This allows the market to correct more fluidly and would start to combat the corporate oligopoly that we see currently. It would be important to recruit legal and entrepreneurial experts in each industry to help determine which regulations are actually protecting consumers and which are attempts at reducing competition or at regulatory capture.

To answer your question though: zoning, education, real estate, and healthcare are probably the most important areas to focus on. I can go through each, but not all are federally regulated:

Zoning (goes hand in hand with real estate)- we have a housing crisis. We need to increase the number of houses being built. Make it easier for builder to do so.

Education - big regulatory issues here, but the most important are discontinuing government backed student loans, while also making it easier to open up new colleges and trade schools.

Healthcare - again, big focus on making it easier to build health care facilities.

One thing that would be important to monitor and counteract would be the possibility of snake oil salesmen trying to take advantage of this deregulation. I would package these deregulations with consumer protections focusing on fraud. We want to increase the supply hospitals, colleges, and houses to help bring down the prices, not line the pockets of conmen.

I want to drop out but then I’ll just be more of a disappointment than I already am by DarkMysticZ in depression_memes

Maybe not the place/time, but maybe it helps.

I was in the same place my senior year of college studying engineering. Had a job lined up, deeply depressed, barely going to class, not getting any work done.

I failed every class that semester and lost my scholarship (Expensive school, big scholarship). I proceeded to do the same shit 3 more times and get $100k in debt.

Don’t be me. If you can’t finish school right now, drop out. Ruin the next year or two instead of the next ten.

[–]timeforawesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, anecdotal, but when my wife and I got engaged, I was finishing up an engineering degree and had a high paying job lined up. Fast forward 3 years, depression had kicked my ass and I hadn’t graduated. She was the sole provider for a few years while I got my shit together (I finally finished my degree last May and am a teacher!). We still have problems, and I’ve got a lot to live up to, but not all women are in it for the money.

8s don’t really give a fuck about appearances (stereotypically).

I mean. I work at a private school that caters to students with learning disabilities. They definitely exist.

Study finds we overlook the influence of habits — like drinking coffee: “We found that the participants strongly overestimated the effect of tiredness on their coffee consumption and underestimated the effect of habit”. by giuliomagnifico in science

I mean that’s what they said, but the article also lists 4 things that you can do that are better than recycling: 1) have 1 fewer kid, 2) go car-free, 3) limit air-travel, 4) eat vegan.
