@oecolamp itβs only inaccurate insofar as they harp on their genius being the sole reason for their difficulties with connection. otherwise, these people tend to be accurately identifying a real shared underlying trauma that is an implicit ingredient in most of those stories.
@smdcapital@elonmusk to be clear, "this" refers to a promotional video.
promotional videos are a noisy signal for capability (and manufacturing capacity), especially if we know there's intentional secrecy around the new design.
an underrated edge Musk has in the AI race is his ability to use his other products to social engineer consent for datacenter buildouts.
if/when Tesla gets acquired, i would not be surprised to see subsidized transportation via robotaxi used in critical localities.
Earlier this year, @SpaceX acquired @xAI (now SpaceXAI), which operates the Colossus datacenters in Memphis.

As SpaceX continues to invest in the area,Β SpaceX is offering our neighbors in the Memphis area no upfront hardware costs on Residential @Starlink kits for new customers and a discount on home internet service plans for both new and existing customers.

if i were presumptuous enough to psychoanalyze Richard, here, i would want to understand more about why the projective identification comes with this topic of child-parent trauma, and explore the certainty behind the tidy story that conveniently removes agency from his parents.
@shakoistsLog Itβs ridiculous for people to be so fragile they think their parents screwed them up in the first place rather than it being genes and culture.
i get the sense that people like this get their understanding of therapy secondhand from the selected group of people who post, boast, and brood about it the loudest.
there exists a symmetrical contingent of online Christians who have the same relationship with harping, proselytizing, and evading earnest self-analysis.
many people who insist they have moved on are engaged in self-deception, and are actively reproducing conditions that harm them interpersonally.
People who go to therapy always boast, "I'm doing the work." No you are not. You are BROODING. Accept the grace of God. Or if you're not there yet, wrap it up into woo-woo. The Universe wants you to move on. Endless reflection is nothing more than wounded bird narcissism.
the conclusion [it's actually retarded to have that be the entire way you play a ball] does not follow from the premise [kicking is an inherently lower precision way to manage a ball].
how about, "the constant starting and stopping of football is an objectively less interesting constraint considering the fact that what makes humans unique is our ability to run long distances without stopping. it's like actually retarded to not have that be the entire way you play a game. we've spent literally tens of millions of years evolving the ability for long distance running; it's indefensibly stupid to remove that capability from play"?
@meadandjuniper@lapislagoons for many, it's easier to climb a career ladder than it is to heal relational trauma. it feels safer to submit the world to your will than it does to submit yourself to another person's (from their perspective it feels like submission).
complaining is game theoretically optimal, as it is not sufficiently penalized, while also being something that can exert subtle influence over the ref's decision making.
iβm new to the game of soccer, how critical of a skill is it to be good at complaining? bc it seems like that makes up about 35% of the total play, so feels like you gotta be good at that iβd guess? any euros can help me here, just trying to understand
the core distinction is that thoughts only occur in a person who has a temperament to begin with, and are thus epiphenomenal to one's temperament. that is not to say that thoughts have no influence on one's behavior or worldview, or that you can't intervene on them in the ways you described to positive effect, but it does clarify our talking past each other.
temperament: the biological-based, innate traits that dictate how an individual reacts to the world and processes emotions.
i could be wrong, but your earlier reply seems to imply that identification with the "sensitive young man" is what ought to be mentally routed around to let "shrivel up and starve". i think the "sensitive young man" exists irrespective of self identity as such, so your advice might be better suited towards those who allow their identification with the label to justify ultimately harmful thought patterns and behaviors, but the label itself, to me, does not definitionally require the kind of melancholic larp you are implicitly advising against... although i do realize how they have become somewhat fused in the discourse.
@loquitur_ponte@EricRichards22 not to be pedantic, but "routine" defined as a regular, customary, or habitual sequence of actions regularly used, is at best downstream of someone's temperament.
Being a "sensitive young man" is a gift, it just comes with a catch. The feels are valid, and you don't actually have to crush them, but no one should ever see them expressed as you experience them.
The emotion has to be transmuted into passion, never expressed directly. Not passion for a person, at least not primarily, but for doing something for the world. Make, preserve, improve something in this life passionately, for others, even if its just for say your hypothetical children.
Introspect and understand PRIVATELY, but always transmute. Fail at this and all other efforts to date or seek out whatever you want will also fail.
