🇦🇹🇭🇷🇦🇷 - Infra IB in NY

[Mot @M0T_rd]

El nuevo objetivo de mi vida es ahorrar lo suficiente para comprar una casita en Grecia sobre el mar Egeo y pasar mi vida tomando mate meditando sobre la grandeza de la antigua grecia y dejando de preocuparme por las disyuntivas modernas y efimeras.

Your brain has a circuit that doesn't know you live in a city. Its only job is to monitor whether birds are still singing. Right now, in this room, it is on.

The circuit predates primates. Mammals have been using ambient soundscape continuity as a predator-detection system for roughly 200 million years. Birds stop singing when something larger moves through their territory. For most of mammalian history, a forest full of song meant no large predator was nearby, and the cessation of sound was the warning. Your nervous system never updated this software.

The Max Planck Institute tested the inverse in 2022 with 295 participants. Six minutes of birdsong dropped anxiety with a medium effect size. Six minutes of traffic noise raised depression with the same. The effect worked on subjects who lived in dense urban environments and had no regular contact with nature. The brain still ran the check.

Birdsong sits in the 1,000 to 8,000 Hz range. Your brainstem reads continuous patterns in that band as a signal that nothing dangerous is currently moving through the environment. EEG data shows birdsong at 45 to 50 decibels boosts alpha wave activity by 14.1% relative to silence. Alpha is the brainwave signature of relaxed alertness. Push the same birdsong above 60 decibels and the response flips. Stress markers rise 29%. The circuit only trusts the signal at the volume of quiet conversation, which is exactly the volume birds sing at from a typical distance.

Three things happen simultaneously when the brain registers ambient safety. The amygdala downregulates. The parasympathetic nervous system takes over from the sympathetic. Heart rate variability rises, cortisol drops. The posterior cingulate cortex, which sits at the center of the rumination circuit, quiets down. King's College London tracked this through a smartphone study with over 1,200 participants and found the mood lift lasted hours after the sound stopped. People diagnosed with depression got the same response as healthy controls.

Most of what gets labeled mental fatigue is hypervigilance running in the background. Birdsong tells the circuit it can stand down, and the brain reallocates the freed compute everywhere else.

A quiet park feels different from a quiet office because the parks have sentinels.

Siempre jugaste para la gente que de verdad le gusta el fútbol, Pipa.

En el corazón del verdadero futbolero estás re contra más que valorado.

Peak NYC weekend. No hay mejor lugar que aca hoy.

En harvard por el fds - la gente es muy crack y todo esta muy prolijo. Chapeau

one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline.

we are going to cure so many diseases.
I dont think people realize how good things are going to get

Nunca fue mas necesario que hoy tener un portfolio de energy diversificado y "de-risked" de conflicto

Argentina emerge como un polo energetico en capacidad y potencia, sin conflictos y con via directa a todos los mercados de importancia (Europa y SK/JP)

A capitalizar en ello...

While Iranians danced in the streets, major Western outlets dressed up Ayatollah Khamenei as a statesman instead of what he was: the architect of decades of terror at home and abroad, writes @SulkinMaya.

Como San Francisco en los 70s/80s o Londres en los 90s … muchos van a hablar del absolute peak de Buenos aires en los ultimos años.

Disfrutenlo, yo no me fui de vuelta NY y ya lo extraño.

Vivir en Buenos Aires: un amigo me invitó a un bar cerca de casa y había una banda tocando covers y se pusieron a tocar uno de Turf pero en el bar estaba Joaquín Levinton que escuchó los primeros acordes y se hizo cargo de todo
