I'm a millennial(31) and my wife is Gen X( she's 51) Yeah my wife is old enough to be my mom, but we have two children in their early teens and made it work.

Totally agreed. I have been practising Western herbal medicine in Singapore for the past 20 years. Have seen herbs that are so useful to support immunity and even can help in treating infection.

The study of human cognition has long grappled with seemingly contradictory modes of thinking - rational, analytical processes versus intuitive, associative processes. The both/and logic of the monadological framework offers a novel way to model and integrate these poles in a coherent theoretical framework. Rational vs. Intuitive Thought Classical cognitive science has tended to treat rational and intuitive thought as dichotomous systems. Rational thought is viewed through the lens of classical logic, probability theory, and conscious deliberative reasoning. In contrast, intuition is often portrayed as an inscrutable, unconscious form of cognition operating by fuzzy heuristics and associations outside analytic rules. This binary framing, while valid as a first approximation, fails to capture the intimate coconstitution of rational and intuitive faculties in real-world human thought and decision-making. It misses their profound complementarities and integrated dance. The multivalent structure of both/and logic allows formulating descriptions that fluidly integrate the rational and intuitive poles in human cognition: Truth(rational analysis) = 0.7 Truth(intuitive insight) = 0.6 ○(rational, intuitive) = 0.8 Here, cognition is modeled as involving a moderate degree of both rational and intuitive processing, with high coherence between these seemingly opposing modes. We can push this further with synthesis operations conjoining the poles: rational deliberation ⊕ intuitive gut feeling This synthesized representation captures the coconstitutive psychophysical process where conscious step-by-step logic and spontaneous visceral intuitions mutually inform and generate each other in the flow of real-world reasoning and problem-solving. The holistic contradiction principle further allows "deriving" how eachepistemically primitive thought mode already implicates and enfolds its ostensible opposite. We could have: intuitive felt sense ⇒ rational inference rational line of reasoning ⇒ intuitive gestalt integration This expresses the dynamic by which intuitions are harvested into formal inference chains, which are then subsumed back into unifying felt insights - the perpetual cycle of intuition and reason in human cognition. Cognitive Biases Another domain where both/and logic finds relevance is in modeling cognitive biases - the paradoxical ways human reasoning systematically deviates from classical norms of rationality. For example, people exhibit seemingly contradictory patterns like: - Order/sequence effects on perceived probability - Conjunction fallacies violating normative probability logic - Framing effects modulating risk preferences These all involve simultaneous truth valuations that classical binary models flag as flatly contradictory or incoherent. But the both/and logic's multivalent structure allows assigning multiple context-sensitive truth values that formally capture these intuitive thought patterns. For instance, for a conjunction fallacy case: Truth(Premise A is true) = 0.7 Truth(Premise B is true) = 0.9 Truth(A & B are true) = 0.85 Here, while (A & B) > Max(A, B) in violation of classical logic, the both/and logic permits assigning this a coherent nonzero truth valuation aligned with typical human conjunction reasoning. The coherence and synthesis operations further allow quantifying how such "fallacious" reasoning coheres with broader cognitive capabilities, and modeling their integration into higher-order decision processes that can potentially vindicate their rationality under different bounded frameworks or agent utilities. In this way, the both/and logic opens up a new paradigm for cognitive science - one where phenomena like biases and heuristics are not simply dismissed as errors, but rather treated as rationally intelligible deviations from classical norms requiring expanded descriptive frameworks. Neurocognitive Modeling Both/and logic also has relevance for neurocognitive modeling bridging brain processes with mental operations. The parallel distributed nature of neural networks can be seen as instantiating both discrete and continuous, both linear and non-linear, both deterministic and stochastic processes simultaneously, challenging classical binary computational models. Multi-valued truth assignments based on neural activation patterns allow capturing this co-presence of seemingly contradictory properties. We could have: Truth(discrete processing) = 0.6 Truth(continuous processing) = 0.5 ○(discrete, continuous) = 0.7 The coherence value reflects how discrete and continuous dynamics closely cohere in the "condensed" representational codes and collective computation occurring across neural networks. Synthesis operations further formalize how uniquely psychological properties like intentionality and semantic meaning emerge as novel syndetic wholes coconstituted from these more primordial physical processes in the brain: discrete neural codes ⊕ continuous neural trajectories = cognitive situation model Such formulations open a path for process monist accounts where mind and brain arise as complementary aspects of an irreducible psychophysical reality modeled by the monads themselves. In summary, both/and logic and the monadological framework provide cognitive science with powerful theoretical tools for: 1) Modeling the coconstitution of rational and intuitive cognitive processes 2) Formalizing seemingly irrational cognitive biases/heuristics as coherent contextualized reasoning patterns 3) Representing the parallel paradoxical processes underlying neural information flow 4) Developing novel unified theories of mind/brain as complementary observables on an irreducible psychophysical reality By embracing the intrinsic contradictions of human cognition, both/and logic equips cognitive science with an expanded descriptive capacity to systematically model the nuances and contextualities of actual human thought - therein lies its transformative potential.

Then you wanna say you use your brain on same level Gautam buddha does? And also you wanna say your brain will work same way if you exercise, sleep good, meditate , eat good, play chess and if you don't do any of these things? Elon Musk brain is like yours? Albert Einstein? Nikola tesla, leonardo da vinci? There is no difference between you and all of them?

Can you help me i really lost my consciousness i dont feel have consciousness

Thank you yes

#epigenetics #environment

Percentages don't work that way lol

Crazy how low of views this has. It’s shocking. I love Frans de waal. RIP. His reservoir of empathy was huge. I also think you nailed it when you said his writing was poetic.

The salient point here is it shouldn't be illegal ofc, or even stigmatized, but its also not necessary to celebrate it as some sort of political and/or socio-cultural achievement.

'Promo SM'

Wowww

🤪 "promo sm"

What Dr Critchlow states is very accurate 👌 I have a successful business and am autistic. My two children are also autistic and multitalented. I also have a widely listened to podcast (in Dutch) that completely rejects the pathology of autism as a disorder and that educates natural difference in neurological wiring as a wonderful benefit! (Title of the podcast: 'Autisme is de Toekomst'. In Englisch: 'Autism is the Future'). Greetings to all autistic/ADHD people and loved ones!

Ummm I can see that this is about mild autism again.

Several of the nurses I know that are the ones you want in your team when a crisis happens all have traits of ADHD (they're not diagnosed but I know at least one of them could be if she looked into it). One of them successfully ran two newborn resuscitations at once in a case of surprise premature twins at a rural hospital.

Why use background music that is so distracting and that clashes maddeningly when it continues under the music that’s supposed to be the highlight of the video?

Kill me

I also wouldn’t trade my autistic gifts for anything, despite the disadvantages that run alongside them. Some industries simply wouldn’t be able to function without autistic staff. Organisations like the railway employ huge numbers of (mostly undiagnosed) autistics in many roles, but particularly in driving trains and planning timetables. Engineering is another area where autistics often flourish, as are science, technology and IT. One of my most autistic friends is an emeritus professor of history. His almost photographic memory and near verbatim recall of every book/paper he has ever read, or conversation he has had, enable him to pull facts together from multiple disparate sources almost effortlessly.

I wouldn't trade being autistic for anything. It's a huge part of the secret sauce that allowed me to start a successful small business and leave a seemingly endless string of entry-level jobs. I always joked that I was capable of doing a lot more if I could find a boss who could figure out what to do with me.

❤🙏

I saw a women with £5.99 on her back but apparantly i have to let her go

Thats not how barcodes work

Hi

👍 interesting discussion. I want to know how to improve my brain power in observation, listening like second brain thing. I am not aware actually about this. I know someone whose second brain is super active. Even we colleagues discuss about something that person can also actively grab info of the outside ( being attentive to our discussion too). Can easily link our study subjects. And how to improve the retention power. The way I studied one topic, that person can extract the details from the same topic very intelligently. How can I inculcate this quality? Please please address this topic.

There are some events that definitely are traumatic but support etc helps but you can definitely grow from trauma

Amazing!

Each person have their vulnerabilities and each has their strengths. And most people in america's strengths are eating disproportional amounts of food :)

Wow my kinda stuff

Yep, it sucks, kind of ruins your plans. The cause of my sleep problems are not from blindness but another condition but the results are the same.

All the best to you Sir. Never knew that. Thankyou for the information. Good luck in the future. ✌️❤️

It's about efficiency i think 🤔

anyone have a link to the study he talked about? fascinating stuff

This guy is and idiot and I don’t even who this guy is. Brains have shown to use a maximum of 35% if the neurons aren’t expanded and disconnected. There has been countless study in this in the past few years. Using 100% of the brain will only be able to give us higher IQ and have full control of our own body.

She really compared having diabetes to making a choice to do drugs and continue to do so.

I also believed by observation that we may have conscious control or influence of 1% . But i like to say it 5% for optimism

Yeah! That was part of the details about Cerebrum! Cerebellum plays the main role in such accurate functions,….etc

They worked on erasing human traces (very similar to what the irrational thief apes did to human in that movie “planet of planet “ 1968 version is better)

This not the first case, they are two many, human thoughts are so concise and precise (they are the result of human thinking process 6, that is why they can write books only out of one human sentence.

5:00 that’s part of human thoughts (was written many years ago in details), they only steal and pollute human thoughts, they are consciousness type one and type two, human already wrote more details about consciousness type two (athletes, ……etc), he only repeated human thoughts.

3:00 they imitate human thoughts, like many others.

That's stupid.

then what is sub conscious mind?

I'm short, and it's not my fault; it's God's

I just gave a lecture last Friday pertaining to this exact subject. And here are the medical statistics. At any given point we use from 1 percent to 16 percent of our brain. 1 is non thinking sleep and up to 16 percent when in stressful situations. The brain controls all functions of the body. And it just so happens to be that the brain uses 20 percent of total protien taken into the body. 20 percent doesn't sound like much but when you factor in that human brains are only 2 percent of the body mass, the brain is a very hungry machine. So to explain it more simply. A dollar bill is you. 10 dimes is your daily food intake. And your brain is 2 pennies. 2 pennies are eating up 2 dimes worth of food, so now there is 98 cents worth of your body to devide up 80 cents worth of food. Now are you getting how hungry your brain is. But the actual number is .016 cents worth of brain. But I rounded up. Now your brain will activate certain areas of your brain that handles certain things. This is for calorie reasons, or your gluttonous brain will devour all your food intake. So this is why we only use very little of our brain at any given point. But the brain gets even deeper in its complexity. It actually does miracles all the time and we can explain exactly how it does it, but we can't explain why it does what it does. In other words your nerves don't actually go from one point to another point. There are gaps. So what happens is an electrical signal is sent in the direction that is choses then it hits chemicals that transfers that signal to another nerve ending and it goes to its destination. But how does this chemical know to go to that other nerve ending without having an electrical glitch that hits another nerve ending. We can't explain that miricle. It just does it.

The old wise man archetype is so old and universal that you can even see it in chimps

Bernie Sanders is an alpha male.

Women don’t idolize supermodels in the way we idolize the women we truly respect. E.g. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Michelle Obama, Maya Angelou, Vs. Marilyn Monroe or other beautiful actresses. We certainly take interest in the latter, but we don’t revere them outside of using them to model physicality that the male gaze values… but looks are not the be all end all. Not even close.

But, of course. Charisma and diplomacy work very well
