    You know the thing about this video that fucked with me most is how deeply valuable close male relationships are with men who are intellectually challenging and encouraging but also unapologetically blunt and not afraid to open up about how their experiences have formed them. I need that in my life.

That was absolutely amazing. Happened 2-3 days after I upped my egg intake from ~3 eggs to 12-15 eggs per day. Sadly had food poisoning, devloped an intolerance and after working on my gut, fixing the intolerance and trying again, I couldn't replicate it. Tried a LOT of stuff to improve my sleep but nothing has a significant effect.

    i think mike’s idea about superintelligence being deeply non-anthropic in desire risks being silly in retrospect. for one we don’t know enough about consciousness to think that we have a good idea of exactly how human desire is formed, much less what type of emergent phenomena would come out of the type of cognition machine that superintelligence would be and if it would even be recognizable as desire to us. for two we will have built it, and the logic systems that we will have relied on to build it with are THEMSELVES emergent. these are heuristic systems that are just super stable at the levels that the human brain needs them to be to play around with concepts like blocks in its mind, so they will be systems of logic geared around the fundamental drive to survive right, like concepts of oneness and otherness that gets you units of a thing that then you do operations on - they’re descriptions of materiality, but abstracted at the level of the human brain (because the brain is the one doing the abstracting); of course that may end up not mattering at all, but we should be clear about the fact that we don’t actually know yet if it’s something that’s likely to matter. i think mike’s wayyy too confident about it.
