I sincerely hope that you don’t think that group chats, online gaming, or phones are “better” than true social life, because there is overwhelming science indicating that those things are making people absolutely miserable… and we actually don’t need science to see it everyday.

Sponsors will pay if you are big enough, no matter the platform. If PeerTube went big, you’d probably start seeing sponsors.

Then publish on both!

No, I don’t usually go physically affectionate with them, male, female, or whatever. I reserve that to close family; unless there is some special situation of course, like loss, or celebration, or something.

And honestly, I don’t miss it at all. I get enough affection at home.

I am expecting that is exactly the point. I don’t think they’ll win, tho. We’ll find a way around it.

Please, discover OpenStreetMap.org and stop being an unpaid Google employee, and make your work truly public and free.

Unless you really need some big GPU thingie… Laptops are too good nowadays.

No, laptop functions have not been offloaded to phones. Phones have simply taken time from real life interactions 😅

I’m in the process of trying to make some old phones work on Linux mobile and truly check what is the state of things there (considering they have been reverse-engineered to work there, not ideal).

I’ve said this a few times.

Parties are not my thing BUT if a friend asks me to go to a party with enough time (maybe 2 weeks), I can mentally prepare, schedule things out, and get my mind ready for a long, tiring night… But hey, with friends, which are people that generally add to your life. Now it’s time to give back and make them smile by sharing that tiring time together.

Also, hydrate strongly prior to that night, and don’t be hungry. Don’t let anything stupid bring your mood down. And relax and enjoy. You’ve scheduled that time for you to freely waste. Own it.

Redox OS seems like it’s turning into something cool.

No one uses “scaled”? 😢

Skate stuff. Could never do anything more difficult than a static, barely decent Ollie. And I was a teen, lots of free time, I spent hours and hours and hours for weeks and months. Nothing.

Effort is not everything.

I am so glad I had no money, because I really wanted to be better and if I had to learn the lesson later in life I would have tried to “fix” it with high quality gear.

I’d vote for funghi

AI in web search is not going anywhere. Deal with it.

This force is unstoppable, whether you like it or not. So you better spend your time adapting.

Well, 20 years ago you didn’t need a computer but now it is virtually ridiculous if you don’t have one in your pocket.

Also you are not using a virtual assistant nowadays because they are s***. But once you can have a natural, context sensitive conversation with your assistant where instead of “create an alarm at 8:30” you can ask it to “see if there is any important email or WhatsApp I need to answer” or “please tell me if Joe messages about mom”…

Writing emails, generating summaries, translation, code, true phone virtual assistant, dubbed-with-AI content… This year we are going to see very probably important announcements from GAFAM, that’s why the AI pin startups launched their products so early, because they are very soon probably being made obsolete with whatever GAFAM has in hands for summer and fall announcements.

Full respect, but I have a feeling you (and I)'ll be using AI as part of your daily endeavours in the next 2 years easily.

I am not defending the man. I am just trying to get to the meat of why there is so much hate on him.

All that young men, nofap, supplement-seller thing is NOWHERE in his podcast. It just shows that people are just reading clickbait article titles. Please watch one of his episodes about sleep, or alcohol, or whatever. I’ve explained it in many comments already. This dude is REALLY careful about what he puts in his podcasts, and it shows.

BTW, none of his advice has ever said anything losely related to Peterson’s rethoric of male superiority thingie, and I don’t even know who that Sam Harris is.

I can tell you something tho. So far in all discussions, NO ONE has brought up what I believe is Huberman’s biggest mistake: bringing Zuckerberg in. That was a very bad episode, but everyone (I even remember Veritasium f*cking it up hard once) deserves to make mistakes sometimes (particularly if no illegal action was taken). I think (hope) he learned his lesson because every comment was clear. No highlight videos were made out of that episode which clearly shows they probably realised the mistake.

First of all: yes, science is about constantly trying to disprove hypotheses. That is what the guys at CERN are doing, that is what people at Stanford are doing. What else could it be?

If you think Huberman is giving these people a right to spout off scientific matters and that’s horrible, then we should cancel Veritasium, we should cancel Sabine Hossenfelder, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Brian Cox, MinutePhysics, VSauce, all TED speeches, damn, BURN every science book and magazine, cause it is making people have opinions about these evil things!!

Good journalism would be an article going through all the papers from the Huberman podcasts and his analysis of them (which he always cites if it’s been peer-reviewed, etc) and debunking all the misinformation. But nope. It’s all about talking to enough people hoping they say some crap about the personal life about a private person, cherry picking information and building up a story from that.

The sunscreen thing, I just passed the first link that came to me, showing that in fact there is proof of bad agents in sunscreen.

If you go check the video of Huberman and sunscreen, very easy to find, you’ll see how he literally says that sunscreen is important because you don’t want to get cancer, it’s just that SOME SUNSCREEN has been found to have toxic components that may cross the blood-brain barrier, and he simply advices to BUY A GOOD SUNSCREEN.

See how this “journalism” works? They pick those little things and extrapolate into madness instead of doing actual work. Because why would you do the actual journalism if there is an easier way to get clicks?

And I am sure one could find some contradicting science to Huberman’s podcasts and I would LOVE to see that. In fact, I think Huberman would love that too. That’s science!!
