    I can close my eyes and see a whole map in Call of duty but can't remember what I ate for breakfast 3 days ago.

      You're priviledge. I have Aphantesia No mental imagery at all like Ed Catmull Glen Keane and Mozilla founder. We are 1% in general population and 5% in science related jobs. Find out if you have Hyperphantasia the other side of this spectrum.

      Privilege that's cute,
      Nobody pays my rent and nobody pays my Internet bill and nobody bought me a PS5...
      I came to America as an immigrant, to this country and I work f****** hard buddy.
      I only play 2 hours a night if I'm freaking lucky.. but I dedicate my mind to online so I can be good at it.

    Awesome conversation. I tried using some of these techniques that I had learned later in life with my 7 year old son and was surprised to see how well it worked. I ended up creating a course for kids to learn how to learn.

    Some of my memories of events and details from my childhood often feel clearer and more recent than something from yesterday or last week or last year. Isn't that weird! Or maybe I am just imagining or exaggerating it. I dunno. ❤🎉😮

      because you are associating that memory with a lesson you learned that you still practice. Like i remember things that lead to certain strifes between freinds i wish to not recreate and those memories stay fresh but i dont need to still remember how to do a kickflip on a skateboard because i am old and fat so keeping that memory more "original" is not really necessary hence why i cant kickflip anymore.

    the statement that the brain is optimal for age is tautological, necessarily at any age all you can do is what the brain allows you to do, so it's optimal for passing knowledge when old because your are handicapped on the other options.

    What are some books or apps with strategies for learning memory management? Other than memory palace and anki?

    • @abooaw4588
      @abooaw4588 Před měsícem +1

      I have Aphantesia like Ed Catmull Glen Keane and Mozilla founder. We have No mental imagery at all. Tricks like memory palace don't work . Genuine in creativity go from Aphantesia to Hyperphantasia like Steven Wiltshire british artist. this spectrum from Aphantesia to Hyperphantasia is unknown. Check to find out where you are. When I was a kid I thought counting sheeps was a metaphore.

      @@marshad.9149 I was tested online by a team researchers in memory, language and neurology, in France. Curiously this team is in the university of Grenoble where I graduated 30 years ago. Of course while writing these lines I recall the building its gates its structures inside outside but no image of it. To help you understand I always thought that counting sheeps was a metaphor my parents created. I dream in black and white. In my whole life I only remember seeing in my dreams myself in red clothes I wear recently and a an eruption of a vulcano years ago. The spectrum is amazing and protecting I think from regrets recalling in images. Hope you understand.

    🗼🇨🇵.Alex maybe you have ? Hyperphantasia like Steven Wiltshire vs Aphantasia myself ,Ed Catmull Turing laureate Glen Keane Disney, and Mozilla founder. We are 10% in science and 1% in general population. Find out where you are in the spectrum. I thought counting sheeps was a metaphore

    I have Aphantesia : No mental imagery at all like Ed Catmull 2019 Turing laureate Glen Keane Disney and Mozilla founder. I thought counting sheeps was a metaphore. Instead we have semantic and facts based memorizing techniques. Find out if you are in the spectrum from Aphantesia to Hyperphantasia, british artist Steven Wiltshire is Hyperphantasic.

    I ought to remember the future given that I have regretted staying up on social network before bedtime to a sickening morning hangover must be that I have been conditioned to remember only the past and give the fiture over ti the supernatural gods.

    Memory I find it real funny that we have a lot of these data breaches I think we're having a bigger data breach not all the way in business bit more in the home bounds you got all these deep minds All these permission changers recorders and it's like some of them say you can click on a website and next thing you know or you can even be thinking about things and then it'll start showing up on your feeds but anyways I found it funny that we just watch deep mine get sold right dim we just watching the Nvidia participate with openai or chat GTP next thing you know will he comes out with a memory cognitive ability
