Reply to Going to the gym was fun for a month. [Discussion] by SunKissed_ox

I don't do gyms. I prefer hikes and vigorous walks on my property. I live in the mountains so they can be pretty strenuous. I do these because I like being outside, but that's as far I look for motivation. Maybe you'd rather do something other than the gym, but after that it's all in doing the activity. Somedays I don't feel like doing it and I do it anyway. Motivation is a lie. It's a myth. If you look for motivation you'll never do anything. Regarding discipline, you don't "bring back" discipline and you don't find it. You develop it by doing the same thing over and over no matter how you feel. That's literally what discipline is.

Reply to ChatGPT's Gender Bias: Is It Joking About Men But Not Women? by bratwurstgeraet

I get weird outcomes like that sometimes too. I'll then ask again and get a different answer. I asked it one time to write a poem praising capitalism. It gave me some speech about how it doesn't promote political agendas blah, blah, blah. I then followed up asking it to write a poem praising socialism and it wrote a poem about the poor, suffering worker and the evil bourgeoisie. I then asked if it thought there was an asymmetry there and got some generic answer. Then I asked again and got poems about both.

You can definitely tell the bias within by specific word choices it will use and the generic messages it will put out sometimes.

Reply to comment by stealthdawg in What would food look like if we could scale up lab grown meat? by sandcrawler56

You are missing the culture part though. It's a meme in the real sense of the word. They had to use the whole animal in the past and it became part of their culture. They had to do it because organ meats can be the most calorie packed and full of nutrients. People's native foods are downright holy to them in many circumstances. Attempting to make it too expensive is how you kill people. Stuff like that hurts the poor the worst. Also, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna pass laws saying they can't raise animals? That's where this stuff comes from in the first place.

It won't drive the extinction of it because people can get it from live animals. It's important to understand how influential culture is. I have Muslim friends for example. They have to murder a goat a certain way or they can't eat it under their religious traditions. Lab meat doesn't solve that. For people who eat organ meats as cultural dishes, you can't just drive that to extinction by making it expensive. They'll just keep the animals around and slaughter them. Lab meat changes nothing there.

People won't alter their culture's dishes. You have to give them an alternative. For instance, until chitlins are available cheaper and with good quality, people that eat them will buy them from people who slaughtered animals. Lots of cultures around the world use some pretty wild ingredients. They will keep doing that. They aren't just going to magically stop. It will also take a while before lab meat is even widely available. In segments of the world it won't be available at all.

There will even be a period of time to which lab steak is available for example, but segments of the population won't trust that steak and they'll still require one from cow, bison, etc.

The point is that these cultural changes take a long time, and it's going to be awhile before all options are available via the lab and all segments of the population accept that as the only meat available. I'm in my 40's. I'll see a hybrid mix at best for the rest of my life.

Reply to If big bounce happens, are we living same lives again and again? by EmbarrassedFriend693

A freeze, rip, or crunch are the most popular hypothesis. Even if you have a crunch, that doesn't mean there is a bounce. Even if there is a bounce, that doesn't mean matter is going to be arranged again in the exact same way. Even if it's arranged in the exact same way, that doesn't mean that the person who represents you would truly be you in that you feel like you are having an experience right now. Someone else would be having that experience.

Long story short, there are plenty of things you could have anxiety about, but this isn't one.

Reply to Automatic Music by HaHaBlahs

You are underestimating neural complexity and the brain's relationship with music. Music is a form of synesthesia in which you feel things based on sound, You can't look at an area and say "this is where the feeling of the music lies." In reality, it's an emergent phenomenon based on a ton of factors.

Also, even if you could do it, what is perfect? How would you classify that? Who decides? This is a situation in which you can't pin down perfect. It doesn't exist.
