New research shows the human brain is experiencing an evolutionary overload from a world it wasn't built to process.

If you feel constantly overwhelmed by a relentless barrage of bad news, social media, and workplace stress, the problem might not be your personal resilience—it may be your biology.

A new review published in the journal Behavioral Sciences suggests that the human brain is suffering from an "evolutionary mismatch". While our minds evolved to function within small, tight-knit communities of familiar faces, we now reside in sprawling, hyper-connected cities and navigate digital environments that expose us to the problems of billions of strangers.

Our brains are effectively running on ancient software designed for a small village, leaving us poorly equipped to digest the endless stream of data pouring from our screens.

This biological mismatch is further strained by what researchers call a "polycrisis"—the compounding stress of overlapping global issues like pandemics, economic inequality, and climate change. Because our ancestors only had to worry about immediate, local threats, our brains treat all incoming crisis data as an urgent, personal emergency, even when the situations are far out of our control. Compounding this is the psychological toll of social media, which triggers a relentless, unnatural state of comparison and competition. Rather than helping us adapt, this constant exposure to others' extreme successes and failures acts as a form of mental punishment, highlighting how modern mental health challenges are deeply tied to an environment our brains simply never evolved to handle.

The Well Just Dropped: 15 Terabytes of Pure Physics Gold Is Now Open Source

The scientific AI world just got a massive upgrade.Polymathic AI, in collaboration with the Flatiron Institute and researchers from Princeton, Cambridge, NYU, Berkeley, Los Alamos, and more, has released The Well: a staggering 15TB collection of high-fidelity physics simulations.

This isn’t toy data.

These are real, expensive-to-run simulations across 16 different physical domains, including turbulent fluid dynamics, supernova explosions, magneto-hydrodynamic cosmic flows, acoustic scattering, and active biological matter.

Until now, reproducing this level of data required weeks on national supercomputers and grant money most teams will never see. The Well changes everything. It’s purpose-built for training PDE surrogate models the AI systems that can replace slow, costly physics solvers with a single fast neural network forward pass.

Everything is fully open source, easy to load with PyTorch, and ready to drop straight into your training pipeline. Researchers and builders can now train on world-class physics data without the insane compute barriers that used to stand in the way.

This is more than just another dataset drop. It’s a serious accelerator for scientific machine learning.The future of physics-informed AI just got a whole lot more accessible.Get it here:

A user on 4chan /x/ posted a method for developing psychic abilities.

It involves training the brain using isochronic tones (starting at 15-20 Hz) using sites like onlinetonegenerator(dot)com while focusing attention on a visual point.

One note mentions tobacco as a way to accelerate cognitive processes.

How very interesting. Have fun and be careful.

Carl Jung was right when he wrote that if a man does not face his shadow by age 35 he will not improve. He will calcify. His defense will become his personality.

[Harman @itsharmanjot]

10 GitHub repos so good they shouldn't be free.

1. AutoHedge

An autonomous hedge fund built in Python with four AI agents: a director generates investment theses, a quant validates them, a risk manager decides position size, and an execution agent places orders. Operates live on Solana. With 'pip install -U autohedge', you can start trading immediately.
repo → https://t.co/q22EzesLoD

2. Vibe-Trading

A trading system using a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) model, featuring 64 finance skills and 29 preset specialist agent swarms. Includes analysis methods like Ichimoku, Elliott Wave, SMC, Black-Scholes, full Greeks, and risk parity. Its crypto desk provides liquidation heatmaps and token unlock tracking. You can observe agents debating strategies in real time.
repo → https://t.co/LZ5CYGMC1W

3. Fincept Terminal

A Bloomberg Terminal replacement that runs on your laptop. CFA levels 1, 2, and 3 analytics. 20+ investor AI agents (Buffett, Dalio, Soros). 100+ data connectors, including Polygon, World Bank, and IMF. Bloomberg charges $24,000 a year. This is free.
repo → https://t.co/dMM1WZxrw9

4. LibreChat

Every model ChatGPT runs, plus Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and 20 more. Self-hosted. Native MCP support. You own the data, the history, the infrastructure. OpenAI charges $20/month to use their wrapper. This costs nothing to use your own.
repo → https://t.co/457utdZUIF

Dostoevsky was right; “Every self-betrayal is a sin. Whenever you go against your nature, your body reminds you.”
