@MAbhishekAnand@bryan_johnson Only if you’re not abusing/overlooking the factors causing the rest of the 10% of aging. If I smoked everyday, it would obviously age me a lot more than if I didn’t. Same with alcohol and high glycemic diets, etc.
@thetomlimb@bryan_johnson Maybe we’re overestimating the Sun’s effects. Maybe it’s got more to do with the lifestyle people have in sunny places VS cold, cloudy, gloomy conditions. Just low cortisol and better moods. I don’t know 🤷🏻
@Tanimal But if they do become conscious and are the most intelligent, I think the bias then clears itself through self awareness and questioning. That’s the power of AGI. That’s what it means when AI researchers say the gap between our intelligence would be that of a rabbit and a human.
@vonderleyen Governments are a scam, can’t wait for all of them to go down. These power hungry aristocrats will do whatever is in their best interests and then spend the rest of the time convincing the public how it’s actually being done for them. Selfish liars, all of them.
@mike_hightimes@Entr0zy This is exactly why people are perceiving time to be faster after the pandemic. Because COVID multiplied everybody’s screen times and made it a drug they can’t stop using. No wonder it all feels the same when you consume useless crap for hours everyday.
Ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre.
The level of competition is thus fiercest for “realistic” goals, paradoxically making them the most time- and energy-consuming.
If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.
Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.
Unreasonable and unrealistic goals are easier to achieve for yet another reason.
Having an unusually large goal is an adrenaline infusion that provides the endurance to overcome the inevitable trials and tribulations that go along with any goal. Realistic goals, goals restricted to the average ambition level, are uninspiring and will only fuel you through the first or second problem, at which point you throw in the towel.
If the potential payoff is mediocre or average, so is your effort.
The fishing is best where the fewest go, and the collective insecurity of the world makes it easy for people to hit home runs while everyone else is aiming for base hits.
There is just less competition for bigger goals.
@1shankarsharma@BaluGorade Was the pick really random tho? Lets just give the gifter the benefit of the doubt and assume he was wise enough to believe in HDFC and hence gifted it.
Vegetarianism as a practice barely occupies 1% of our history as a species, in credit to the rise of Jainism and Brahmins deeming the act “prestigious”.
At the root of it lies a superiority complex more than a “love” for animals.
People need to stop projecting their dietary preferences on others. Primary Meals target 500 cals with 12 gms of protein, Upper Primary =700 cals with 20 gms of protein. Solid nutrition when taking cost constraints in to account. Nutrition should matter, not ingredients.
@Asan_research Gamechanger for India. Good move on the 10GW nuclear target. The only thing that matters now is execution, world-class safety standards and procedures, no shortcuts.
