Looks like one of our subscribers here is making their own app for flowstate and habits.

Maybe try it out and let him know what you think in the comments on this post here.

I support everyone making their own apps.

Idk who needs to hear this, but you can be anti-mandates without being anti-vax.

Saying "trust the science" shows a real lack of understanding of the scientific method.

This is what happens when marketers run the show.

This message is not anti-vax. I have no real issue with the vax, you do you boo.

This message is about proper scientific discussions and propaganda.

The scientific method is about actively subjecting any human hypothesis to rigorous testing, actively seeking instances where the hypothesis FAILS.

Getting a PhD taught me most academics actually seek confirmation bias for their hypotheses, cherry picking results to be right.

Whenever I do a scientific experiment for a client, I always assume I'm WRONG and look for examples that give me BAD results.

What's happening in society is retarded. Or rather, manipulative and weak.

It's not science, it's confirmation bias.

Truth wouldn't need propaganda.

When Newton had his theory of gravity it was super accurate.

But scientists quickly noticed that it did not correctly predict the perihelion of the planet Mercury.

It took centuries for Einstein to come along and define space + time as a spacetime hypercube to fix it.

Science.

This is what the scientific method is about: actively seeking examples it's WRONG.

What's happening today with COVID is confirmation bias, or anti-science.

Side note: This was taught to all of you in grammar school, if you actually paid attention. Hopefully this is nothing new.

Confirmation bias stems from ego, from not wanting to be wrong.

It results in manipulation and corruption.

And it's no surprise, because the academic world with its "publish or perish" mentality incentivizes people only writing papers which validate their ideas for grant money.

An honest scientific analysis would not try to sweep contradictory results under the rug, but rather welcome them.

I have a seething disdain for people who call themselves "scientists" but are weasels, cowards who don't do real science.

Add a pinch of marketing and here we are.

The Avenue Within

Inside every human being, lies an avenue, comprising of endless possibilities. It is the pure dome, of limitless expression. The over-stimulation of mind through the monotonous consumption of content and information, patterns and ideas, creates benumbed part of you which calls upon you to cling yourself to ideologies and concepts. The mind always feels satisfied as long as it holds you into its tight grip. There exists, an another world, where each second, is felt as if it is unreal. It is this world, where you are born, as a human being again. Each moment, is viscerally felt. Each sight is experienced as if you had seen it for the very first time. The surroundings, began to grow into you, as if you and your environment were not discrete.

An unspeakable, unimaginable force of existence draws you into the moment, where your identity, is one with the experience. Each entity is a spur for you to dissolve into the infinitude. This place, is not for he who cannot let go of his self image. Who cannot let go of his attachment to concepts and the knowledge he possesses. It is not for him to who seeks to confine it within the boundaries of definitions and language, for it is a perplexing endeavour to engage in. It is only for he who abandons the celebrated notions of this world. It is for he who abandons the chases and sedimentary preferences. For the enticing nature of the illusionary reality we surround ourselves with, is so antagonistic to its majestical feeling and sense, that it would be erroneous to consider that it can be attained within the prevalent incarceration.

A lot of my smart friends have pointed out that I seem to be a victim of "consistency bias".

Wherein my views of the vaccine are now subject to an irrational push to be consistent with a previous stance - that I cannot change my mind without enduring significant friction.

This is the type of argument which demands more intellectual discussion.

This is the type of analysis which encourages healthy debate.

Am I limiting myself by sticking with an original stance?

If I wanted to go full pro-vax, am I biased against it?

And more importantly - this is the type of discussion we should all be having.

Let's have intelligent talks instead of retarded knee jerk reactions.

If I wanted to, am I even able to have a pro-vax stance without alienating my followers?

These are INTELLIGENT questions.

How many of your questions, anon, are intelligent and how many are retarted confirmation bias?

Practice observing how your body feels internally ("interoception") as if from a detached distance.

Quantum physics teaches us all observation necessarily changes that which is observed.

That before something is observed or measured, it's in an ambiguous probabilistic state.

That's why I believe observing the body from within can physically heal.

Try to drill down into the present moment and observe nanoseconds - your experience of time will slow down.

AI for treatment planning is going to be a big focus going forward - having the machine recommend pills, chemo schedules, surgery, and more. Most medical AI is used for diagnosis currently.

Autoencoders encode high dimensional signals like images to low dimensional latent space. Think compressing a 5 MB image into a 5 kb file.

The neural network tries to reconstruct the original from the lower dimensional embedding. Shannon entropy used to maximize compressed info.

The latent space can be any dimensions.

Variational autoencoders are a modification which adds the Kuber Leibreich distance to the loss function and passes the latent space through a Gaussian transformation.

This makes the latent space a normal distribution.

The beautify of them is you can take a dataset and create a smooth transformation between the latent space encodings.

What's the practical use case?

For my work, it's reverse image search.

Imagine you have a pic of a shirt, or tumor. Map it to the latent space.

Now you can find similar looking shirts, or similar looking tumors, to your query. You can sell similar shirts or diagnose a patient.

I always saw a different world emerging than what is on track to continue the momentum of today.

I saw giant towers with deep magical roots spreading throughout the land.

I saw epic glorious heroes scouring the land.

I saw technological marvels more than mere surveillance.

Is this a "fantasy"?

I'd say yes.

It's not very grounded in reality.

Is this imagination?

No.

Is this visionary? Not like the more practically minded visions of a base on Mars.

Is this delusional?

No.

Do I care about COVID and people's daily lives today?

No, not in the slightest.

I only wanted to connect to tomorrow's most powerful thinkers.

Yet I see everyone get absorbed into the hurricane of today's zeitgeist, the modern milieu.

I'm a delusional idiot, sure.

Maybe not.

We are but raindrops in a hurricane.

Sounds poetic, but what does it mean?

From the raindrop's perspective, it's entirely rational in reacting to it's immediate chaotic environment. Any talk of large scale trends would seem completely irrational and delusional to the raindrop.

But zoom out.

What do you see?

Giant spirals spanning thousands of miles.

Patterns that a raindrop would dismiss as silly and crazy.

Yet zoom out even further, in time this time.

Hurricanes tend to normalize climates.

The raindrop sees none of this.

From a raindrop's perspective, it's pure chaos.

Maybe the raindrop can conceive of some trends, but large scale, clearly defined spirals? Crazy.

I'm here to see the hurricane and make my own.

I will be the eye of the storm.

And even deeper, I am a black hole absorbing all.

I know, I know, the spiritualists say I'm not considering their silly demonic entities and tarot's and religious prophecies and Satanic cults and all their stupid takes.

The smart people shake their heads in disappointment at how childish I sound. Grounded men see me as larping.

I mean, you're all right.

I'm the crazy one.

Yet I'm actually quite smart.

I actually think I'll enact this world.

I think I have the skills to pull it off.

I know the collectivists think people are fungible.. but I'm not.

Regardless, my mission hasn't changed since 2014.

You "get behind" situations by observing your own body and the senses entering your mind in this present moment.

You "get behind" situations by seeing your thoughts on the situation enter your mind as if from a detached perch behind your mind.

Ignore society; focus on thoughts.

I love my family and friends so much.

Everyone in my life is a good hearted person doing the best they can with the info available.

Everyone in my life wants the best for each other and actively helps each other out.

Everyone in my life is bursting with support and strength.

Embrace The Chaos:

There's a technique I do where I close my eyes and let half-formed thoughts, images, words, ideas enter my mind.

I actively relax my mind and don't let them take me on a mental journey. I don't let any trains of thought form. I don't actively generate ideas. I don't let the sentences be completed.

Random garbled words, syllables, images of real things or memories or cartoonish fictions start swirling in.

I continue to relax my mind and merely observe.

The half-formed "mind stuff" starts coming faster and faster.

Eventually, clear subconscious insights emerge.

When half-formed phrases and mental images are actively not latched onto, they eventually reform as full sentences and clear visions.

I call this technique "Embrace The Chaos" and it's a great one to do before bed.

"Fast to Think Clear"


Body and mind are one.

Body is a gross part of the mind. Mind is a subtle part of the body.

How you feel in the body is how you will feel in the mind and the opposite.

If your gut is not clean, constipated or bloated, it's impossible for you to think clearly.

Energy flows upwards in human beings. If there are any blockages, the flow gets restricted. Which makes you foogy and stressed.

So, the easiest, simplest and the most efficient way to keep your gut clean and your mind supercharged is to FAST.

You can either fast for a day, drinking only water.

Or

Do intermittent fasting, in which you eat only between an 8 hours window (like from 10 to 6) and fast for 16 hours. Everyday.

This will help you:

- look better
- Healthy skin
- strong heart
- high metabolism
- improved blood flow
- better digestion
- better immunity


The benefits are endless. I've been following intermittent fasting for 4 years, and I've never had a bad stomach in this period.

It's not a miracle, it's your body's intelligence.

Digesting food takes enormous energy. And when you don't eat, the body uses that same energy to clean and heal.

Try it for a week.

Sundays are for journaling.

As a rule of thumb, be suspicious of whatever the government or media tells you to fear.

You'll know real fear if you look within your own soul.

External dangers exist, but acutely, in the present moment.

Grand, large-scale fears are often exaggerations at best, manipulations at worst.

Anyone who has tried to build functional algorithms would be hugely suspicious of climate models, due to how complex these systems are, and how bad we are at modeling complex phenomena.

Everyone here should without a doubt read this article in full by my friend Goldmund.

It's a boots on the ground description of how NYC denizens view the mandates.

How they're overwhelmingly supportive of the narrative.

How college kids are just shrugging and accepting swiping their vax pass QR codes to get inside buildings without a second's thought - no rebellion, no doubting the new normal, just shrugging and getting on with their day completely accepting it.

The terrified middle aged people who robotically repeat lines from the news.

No spark of soul, no doubt, no original thought in their head, no question they're "doing the right thing" and wanting more restrictions.

The workers who are "just doing their jobs".

The millions of people who applaud 5 year olds being required to get the injection to sit inside a pizza shop.

Cowards and conformists.

And not just a few - nearly all.

Read the article in full, especially the actual dialog.

I can personally attest this is startlingly, eerily accurate in describing the attitude of NYC these days.
