    I’m the second type, but I extended it to literally every relevant piece of knowledge in my life. So now I’m trying to fix my entirely rotten foundation from school.

    Shockingly, it’s actually going pretty well. Turns out the human brain gets better at handling information the more diverse high quality info you provide. Deep diving into niche topics seems worse than just getting a robust foundation and then generalizing.

    Having a good thought framework also seems to matter a lot, once I worked out how to think critically in a proper that sped a lot of learning up. Now I don’t have to really think twice about most miscellanous things, they’re all actually really similar. Humans are not as diverse as we think lol.

    No this guy actually understands what he’s talking about. He may not be articulating it the best, but his argument is not false. What he’s essentially saying is that based on what we understand now, the brain must be a machine in some sense that can do computations.

    The only reason this is the case is because logically unless new physics arises this must be the case. So it’s not the brain is a computer like we have now, it’s that all things that process and handle information systematically must do computation. What that looks like and what each unit does it what we don’t get.












  • It’s not about the actual meaning, the statement itself is double talk to tell people to shut up when other people want to be bigots. There’s nothing wrong with wanting separation but communities should be inclusive by default with codes of conduct. Just simple rational organization, nothing else. Also I should clarify political to me is talking about elections in different countries and voting. Whether or not members of my community should exist or face harassment is not a political issue.






  • Unfortunately the snap argument may have merit after all. Some companies have dropped support for it and are all in on flatpak. I’ve run into several cases where something was available on flathub but not the snap store. And considering gnome, kde, and most new devs are all in on flatpak, someone would be really missing out on some great apps that make life easier if they only had snaps.

    Not only that but Ubuntu has really diverged in other areas as well they may only show up later like choosing LXD over podman. People should just get an experience that is closest to SteamOS for maximum compatibility and support atp. Putting someone on Ubuntu I think is like orphaning them.
