🧵 Consciousness
Anonymous at Sat, 18 May 2024 22:50:25 UTC No. 16182094
I feel as if I am going insane. I have been researching consciousness for the past year, and I have found myself in a position where I am back at square one. Even after all that I have researched and the knowledge I have inquired, I am adamant with the new mysterian position that the hard problem of consciousness and the binding problem are ultimately unsolvable.
I'm curious about your perspective. What is the essence of consciousness? What are the implications it has for our perception of reality, the nature of subjective experience, and death?

What are some ways we can conserve energy? Visual processing apparently uses half of the brain’s energy, and the brain already uses like 20% of the body’s energy. Should we just close our eyes when we don’t need to be using them?

>Medical schools are ‘skirting SCOTUS ruling against afirmative action, report shows
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/me
>'Many in the healthcare establishment... remain ideologically committed to the principle of racial favoritism,' new study says
An association of medical professionals is sounding the alarm that medical schools across the country are "skirting" the Supreme Court’s ruling requiring admissions programs to abandon race as a factor.
Do No Harm, a group of physicians, nurses and other medical professionals "focused on keeping identity politics out of medical education," unveiled new research this week with findings that, despite the high court’s decision in the landmark affirmative action case last summer, "many in the healthcare establishment nevertheless remain ideologically committed to the principle of racial favoritism and reject the virtue of race blindness."
"Efforts to game admissions with an eye toward bolstering racial diversity commonly occur under the moniker of ‘holistic admissions,’" reads the study titled, "Skirting SCOTUS: How medical schools will continue to practice racially conscious admissions."
"In theory, holistic admissions should mean de-emphasizing the metrics that primarily determine admission to medical school (e.g., GPA and MCAT scores) and placing greater focus on other academic qualifications, personality traits, or professional accolades," it continues.

It takes a simple school experiment to disprove so-called "Second Law of Thermodynamics". Why do scientists still insist on calling it a "law" when it's clearly false?

Jabney Moleman died
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-c
Originally from Austin, Texas, he died at his home in Santa Monica, California, his daughter told US media.
Although he was best known for playing nasty men for laughs, he also took on a range of dramatic roles and voice-over work.
"Acting is acting, in my opinion," he told an interviewer in 2012, about the shifts in his career. "And if you can't make that adjustment, something's awfully wrong."
More recently he appeared in the western drama Yellowstone, and had a recurring role as an influential businessman in the HBO gangster saga

🧵 academia is now fake
Anonymous at Sat, 18 May 2024 18:25:51 UTC No. 16181814
you have to fake a few tests to be able to finish most of masters degrees in university
the tests can be accomplished by using ADHD medication (or real amphetamine but then you have to eventually deal with the police) or by being the shut in type who study all day all night and has no social life
guess which one all the students choose?
the drug way
because the drug users were able to get lowest scores on test that is still accepted as passed instead of having failed, they get their masters degreees
because they are super social drug users they also get the connections
it is only these people who get the jobs, the shut in type who actually knows shit about his field is not getting a job
therefore everyone who is now in his 30s-40s and has a masters degree in STEM and a relatively good job (not saying the pay is good but the job itself is) is actually a fraud they did not pass their tests fair
they arent intelligent enough to do the work they are now doing but they are the only ones doing it which is why everything falls apart in society scale
🧵 I got a bunch of question about AI

How exactly an LLM works?
>it just predict words
If i ask what color the sky is, and the AI answers "blue", is the answer generated just by human experience and observation?
When confronted with the question above, chat-GPT specified it's programmed to find a specific pattern according to a database, it doesn't agree but judging from the answer seems like this is the case.
It can't observe, it can't judge, it can't experience things first hand, identify objects or actions and turn then into abstract ideas to work with, it can mix things together to a certain degree but not like a human would do.
Now i'd like to ask /sci/ what does it think about it, because if this is the case i feel disappointed, for sure it's impressive how such mechanisms makes me feel like i am talking to a person but these systems only relies on a fuckton of human knowledge and can't experience or generate new data by themselves. It's like watching a guy cheating at the exam by reading stuff he wrote on his arm.
🧵 How to cope with being a 143IQ brainlet?
Anonymous at Sat, 18 May 2024 16:59:38 UTC No. 16181710
I just took a WAIS-IV IQ test and it turns out my IQ is a measly 143. I was a bit sleep deprived and had heard some bad news just before taking the test, and got flustered and tilted halfway due to a poorly worded trivial question (two cakes can bake in 30 minutes, how long would it take to bake 8 cakes? I asked if all 8 could fit in the same oven because then it would be 30 minutes again, but the tester just ran out my time) but other than that I did my best. The highest I could've gotten with perfect conditions is probably around 146 or so. How do I cope with being such a massive fucking retard?

There is plenty of use for those both in the industry and the army.
Why is there no such device on the market against mosquitoes? Wouldn't it make sense to invent one using already known theory of electromagnetism.
There are a few interesting solutions to them like mosquito laser or even your regular led traps
🧵 Non-calculus topics in math that require no prerequisites

I've been away from school for a while. Took calculus of a single variable and linear algebra a while ago. Most of it was hand wavy. I'd like to get back to math but I feel I don't have the mathematical maturity to truly understand calculus. What are some good resources/books for learning discrete math, number theory, etc. to build the maturity needed to tackle calculus?
