母校的灯, 是照亮我人生的路
I have been keeping writing diaries with five or six books more than 10 years. For fostering resilience, and for recording with personal development, before I die.
曾经因为高中老师的一句话,
在自己心中暗自发誓,
当时内心许下的承诺,
10年后全部实现了.
期待下一个10、20年.
Psychological knowledge:
When people face complex and difficult problems without corresponding solutions, they tend to use their existing thinking inertia.
Until one day, when the existing mental inertia can no longer solve a problem, they will think of changing their previous inertia.
There will always be moments of retreat in this process, so what can keep those who successfully break through bottlenecks moving forward?
A Columbia psychologist proved that the moment your brain knows it can Google something, it quietly refuses to remember it.
She ran four experiments to be sure. It happened every time.
Her name is Betsy Sparrow.
She runs a research lab in the Department of Psychology at Columbia, and the paper that closed the argument was published in the journal Science in July 2011, with two co-authors, Jenny Liu at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Daniel Wegner at Harvard.
The finding is brutal enough that it should have changed how we think about the internet itself.
The first experiment was simple. She asked participants to answer a series of difficult trivia questions, then immediately gave them a modified Stroop task where they had to name the color of a word on a screen as quickly as possible.
The words were a mix of everyday objects and technology terms like Google and screen. Every participant slowed down measurably when the tech words appeared, but only after they had been struggling with the trivia. The harder the question they had just failed, the slower they were to read past the word Google.
Their brains had quietly reached for the search bar before the question was even finished.
The second experiment is the one that should genuinely change how you live. She gave participants 40 trivia statements to type into a computer, things like "an ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain."
Half the participants were told the computer would save their work and they could come back to it later. The other half were told the computer would erase everything the moment they finished. Then she tested both groups on how much they remembered.
The group that believed the information had been saved remembered significantly less than the group that believed it had been erased. Same statements, same typing task, same amount of time spent reading each fact, and one group simply forgot more of it because they knew they would not need it later. The brain had quietly decided that storage was someone else's job.
The third experiment pushed the finding even further. Participants were told their typed statements would be saved into specific folders on the computer, with names like Facts or Data.
When tested afterwards, the participants remembered the folder locations significantly better than they remembered the actual statements themselves. They could not tell you that an ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain, but they could tell you exactly which folder you would find that fact in if you went looking for it.
Their memory had reorganized itself in real time around where to find the information, not what the information was.
The fourth experiment confirmed the entire pattern with 34 Columbia undergraduates and a recognition test designed to rule out every other explanation. The result held. People remembered where to find the answer better than they remembered the answer.
Sparrow called this transactive memory, which is a concept her co-author Daniel Wegner had introduced decades earlier to describe how married couples and close colleagues quietly outsource parts of their memory to each other.
You do not need to remember your spouse's mother's birthday if your spouse remembers it. You do not need to remember a complicated client's preferences if your colleague does. The brain treats trusted external sources as extensions of its own memory and reallocates effort accordingly.
What Sparrow showed was that the human brain has done the same thing with the internet now. Google is not the tool you go to when your memory fails. It’s been upgraded to a permanent member of your cognitive team. Your brain just stopped doing the work silently when that happened.
The implication is what should scare anyone who has grown up with a search engine in their pocket. Every fact you’ve looked up in the last 15 years that seemed easy to look up again was processed by your brain at a shallower level than it would have been processed before search engines.
You didn't learn it the way your parents learned stuff. You discover where it lives. The address was written into long-term storage. The stuff went into some sort of cognitive holding area that gets emptied the instant your brain confirms the address is still working.
This is not a moral failing, Brains have always done that with reliable external memory.
The same mechanism that allows you to forget your spouse's phone number because you have it saved in your phone is the same mechanism that allows you to forget almost everything you read on the internet.
Your brain is doing exactly what it was designed to do . Save effort where effort can safely be saved .
The thing is, the more you outsource, the less you have inside. The more a brain has learned where to find information , not what the information is , over 15 years , the more it becomes dependent on the external system that contains the actual content .
The moment the system goes down, the moment you can't search, the moment you have to reason out a problem from raw memory alone, the gap between what you know and what you can access becomes painfully apparent.
The answer is uncomfortable and it’s the same answer that worked before search engines existed. You have to deliberately learn things you could easily look up, but which you don't, not because looking up is hard, but because the looking up is what builds the part of you that can actually think without a phone in your hand.
Your brain is not worse than your parents brain.
it simply stopped storing the things it used to store because someone else volunteered to do it for free.
The CEO of OpenAI was asked for his hottest take. His answer wasn't a prediction about a product. It was that the whole world is sleeping through the most important thing happening to it.
A student asked Altman for his spiciest take.
He paused. He admitted he could probably find a spicier one with more time. Then he landed somewhere quiet.
AI is just going to keep going.
That sounds obvious until you hear how he framed it. He said this is not widely believed yet. And if it were actually believed, there would be far more reverberations through society right now than there are.
That is the whole point.
He is not saying people doubt AI is useful. He is saying people have not internalized what continuing on this curve actually means. They nod along and then go back to their day.
Then he gave the timeframe.
It has been three and a half years since ChatGPT. He said if you run another three and a half years on the same trajectory, what society is capable of is completely different.
Not improved. Different.
The scariest takes are usually loud.
This one was Altman calmly saying the biggest change in human history is already underway, and almost nobody is acting like it.

The good perception of how to balance wealth and life experience:
Scott Galloway draws a sharp line between being rich and being wealthy —and explains why a $10M-a-year banker is less wealthy than his 94-year-old father.
The NYU professor and entrepreneur argues that most people are chasing the wrong target.
The goal isn't to be rich.
Rich is what you see. Wealth is what you don't.
He defines it simply:
"Wealth is having passive income that's greater than your burn."
To make it concrete, he describes two people in his life.
The first is a friend who runs M&A for a bulge bracket investment bank. He makes between $3 and $10 million a year depending on the market. He pays 50% in taxes. Between his ex-wife, his home in the Hamptons, and what Scott calls a "master of the universe lifestyle that he feels he deserves," he has saved very little.
Scott says:
"He has a lot of sleepless nights wondering what happens if the music stops. He is not wealthy."
The second is his 94-year-old father.
Between his pension from the Royal Navy, Social Security, and six washer-dryer machines in trailer parks where he goes and "collects the money with his walker," he makes $52,000 a year. He spends $48,000. His passive income is greater than his burn.
"He is wealthy."
Scott then describes coaching a couple in their late 50s in San Jose who weren't going to have enough passive income by 65 to fund their lifestyle.
His advice was to lean into their strengths.
Their kids were gone.
They were already going to Costa Rica twice a year. So he asked them:
Why not sell the house, move to Costa Rica, and cut your burn by 40%?
The point, he explains, is to put yourself on a path using basic math — ideally hitting that passive-income-greater-than-burn line by 40, but at the latest by 65 or 70. Because:
"That release of economic anxiety frees you up to focus on what is really important, and that is deep and meaningful relationships."
He speaks from experience.
Raised by a single immigrant mother who "lived and died as a secretary," Scott describes feeling like there was a ghost following his family around telling them they weren't worthy because they didn't have money.
Between student loans, the dot-com crash, and the financial crisis, he didn't escape that anxiety until he sold his last company about ten years ago.
Wealth, in his framing, comes down to two levers:
How much you make so you can save, and how much you burn. He cites a friend who left Tribeca for Portugal (same family, three kids, a beautiful home and great schools) but on $400,000 a year instead of a million.

@ShawnRyan762 oh, fuck idea
A typical group where there is no burden in their hearts and their bodies naturally improve:
French women don’t get fat, and Mireille Guiliano says it’s simple:
They eat for pleasure with all five senses. Slowly. No calorie counting, no low-fat nonsense. Real butter, chocolate, duck fat, in moderation. They rarely snack, skip soft drinks, and prefer walking over jogging.
The numbers back it up: France has one of the lowest obesity rates in Europe at around 10% for adults. The US sits at ~41% for women.
What’s your take, could this pleasure-first, slower approach to eating actually be healthier than constant restriction?
@cptdankkk We all start to think about the meanings of our belongings and before this, other 99% all want to earn more money
In the future, Family Care cannot be replaced by robots:
Belirli bir yaştan sonra, anne babanız yavaş yavaş çocuklarınız haline gelir. Basit sorular sorarlar, hikâyeleri tekrarlarlar ve bir zamanlar onların sabrına muhtaç olduğunuz gibi, şimdi sizin sabrınıza muhtaç olurlar. Bu rol değişimini çok az kişi anlar. Masumiyet gibi veya rahatsızlık gibi görünen şey, aslında zamanın tam bir daire çizerek geri dönmesidir. Onları sertçe düzeltmeyin. Acele ettirmeyin. Bir zamanlar sizi korudukları gibi, siz de onlara öyle bakın. Bu bir yük değil. Bu bir karşılık.
The opposite of anxiety is to do many right things and small habits by oneself:
A Stanford psychiatrist says modern anxiety is not caused by danger.
It's caused by tiny habits that teach your brain to panic when nothing is actually wrong.
You do them every day.
And you call them normal.
6 habits that quietly teach your nervous system to panic:▼▼▼
1/ Reaching for your phone the moment you feel uncomfortable.
@GadSaad Come on professor! believe you can solve this problem, although this is the first time to meet wit you
Many times, healing is not a difficult task but this premise is that the inner mind gives up the idea of relying on others. In this process, it is not short to find someone who is suitable for oneself. If there is no suitable person to accompany oneself, then one is alone and beautiful

Before making money, people who are lacking or have too many desires in their hearts will lack the ability to keep money on their pockets:
You just made your first $1M. Your brain immediately jumps to the bigger house, the nicer car, that business idea you’ve been itching to execute.
Resist all of it, that instinct is exactly why most people who come into money are broke again within a few years.
The move nobody teaches you: do nothing.
Let it sit. Don’t deploy it, don’t try to flip it, don’t show it off. Park it somewhere safe that pays you while you think. Lock it into a 2–3 month yield-bearing instrument e.g T-bills, low-risk positions, safe and battle-tested protocols.
You’re not trying to get rich off it; you’re already there. You’re buying yourself time to think clearly and getting paid to do it.
Run the numbers. $1M at just 5% APR:
→ $50,000 a year → $4,167 a month → $137 a day
Every day you wake up, $137 landed in your account. You didn’t touch your principal. You didn’t lift a finger, and if that 5% compounds daily, you’re closer to $51,200 a year, the money starts making money on the money.
So before you spend a single dollar or naira, ask yourself one question: can this purchase pay for itself from the interest alone? If yes, you’ve earned it. If no, you’re eating your seed.
Anyone can GET money. Keeping it is a different skill entirely and it starts with the discipline to sit still while everyone expects you to splurge.
Sometimes parking it and letting it pay you is the best play ever. This is from experience, don’t joke with your once-in-a-lifetime SEED when it comes your way.
@jaynitx Musk will punish anyone who is lazy and not working hard
@ryzemeta really cool, charging for love is the whole world
@JamesonCamp why argue the unimportance of big money?
@travelingflying The height of seeing the world is different from that of ordinary people
@travelingflying tax is the way to balance and save lives of the population
@newstart_2024 great opinions of how to maintain relationship
Children's potential will be greater than that of mature adults:
People have no idea what's coming with the next generation of kids who are AI native.
My youngest teen just started an internship.
On the first day he was given a "challenging" two weeks worth of work with very specific objectives, timelines, etc. By 10am the next morning he was done the entire list and asking for more work.
They didn't think he could possibly be done.
How?
He used AI to help (with their permission). And he KNOW how to use AI (he's not using it like a google search bar).
These AI native kids are gonna run laps around 25-40 year olds that are not using AI.
@RecchoRewards having daily routine is one of the best ways to make progress
