After going from doing a lot of drugs mostly psychedelics. To learning math, math has been the most life changing thing I have found.

The red pill is that anyone can do and learn math, though only a finite amount of people will have the creativity to pursue anything substantial from math. This can be restated as there exsist an unlimited amount of information a human can gather, and only a finite amount of creativity for them to apply that information.

Thus, if you do learn math, make sure to be as general as possible in what you do, specializing in everything you do. What you do should be more than math.

The way I view the world does not feel so blocked off and bounded. Such that a subject is reduced to the knowledge that is needed to be sufficient in a subject. Where as before any task reduced to my raw talent that I was born with to be sufficient in a subject.

I feel this might turn into a nature vs nurture debate. So I will just appeal to the debate and say that anyone is better off learning as much as they can, despite what they are given. And for the reverse argument, people should use what they are given, but not rely on it in order to learn as much as they can.

While nucleus basalis stimulation requires surgery and lots of stuff that makes it infeasible for non-Millionaires, when it comes to these substances, the anti-aging communities often make group buys and have a lab synthesize it. You won't see someone selling Epobis, Vorinostat, etc., so you'd have to participate in one and maybe wait years to have it synthesized. I know someone on longecity recently synthesized 1kg of Vorinostat and you can buy a gram for $90 (which isn't too bad considering the dosage is 20mg a day and it's extremely strong). It's touted as a chemical which reopens the critical phase, so basically the same effect as stimulating the nucleus basalis (at least in rats that has this effect)

It's helpful, but I swear anything that could make one feel normal or even better, confident, are hidden in backwater internet mazes.
e.g. I've heard people change their entire perspectives on amphetamines but of course I'll never find it.
Oxytocin is like the benchmark where if you could procure something equal to or greater with relative ease, you could finally ascend above need for a normie group.

Why are "Random Matrices" listed as one of the top levels there?

How does one unironically cope with wordceldom and shape rotation?

[Anonymous No.20215905]

>>20215879
Start writing in emojis. The reason you and other people are in wordceldom is because our alphabet is based on sound.

It's no coincidence that Egyptian's invented early language and it was based on Pictures. Do you think Animals think in Sound? No. They think in pictures and memories.

To still use language and the benefits of written language one must write in emojis.

The Windows button + Period (.) will bring them up on computer.

Midwit take. Pictograms are inefficient means of communication and thinking. It is imprecise and detrimental when it comes to describing things. Written language is better because it is more precise. It allows one to describe accurately what an object is, where it is, how it functions, and what it is currently doing. Thus, emojis are incredibly inefficient because it is limited in its ability to convey data, particularly objects that do not exist.

But written language is also limited in its ability to communicate. For one, writing (and language for the same matter) forces one to think linearly, word by word. Writing does not allow simultaneous and nonlinear thinking. For example, for one to describe what is happening in his current environment, he would have to describe each factor in a linear fashion. “The wind shook the leaf. The car raced by. Birds flapped their wings.” The problem here is that the world operates nonlinearly and simultaneously. And to force the description of the world, which operates nonlinearly and simultaneously, in written form, which is linear and non-simultaneous, is to inherently misinterpret the world.

To write “All these things happen simultaneously” does not solve the problem because by the time you have to write, you are already thinking linearly.

So what is the solution then? Is it to use your senses? After all, the brain is capable of absorbing multiple sources of data simultaneously via senses. I personally don’t think this is a solution because it does not solve the communication problem from person A to person B. Ted Chiang wrote about “Seimographs.” Perhaps that is the solution. But are people capable of seimographic language? It is hard to say…
