  2. I don't agree with the message fully. Based on his anoligies, i would call life a playful journey because you still need destination, goal in your life while living life in present. You have to aim at something of a higher value, else you are lost and depressed. No positive emotions come out of it. The thing is that we are wired in a way that we need goals, we are systematic beings and despite what some people may say that they don't wanna be limited by anything or have anything written in the stone, they still have certain guidelines that lead them to life they wanna live. The overal message is that no goal will bring you happiness if you are unhappy, but with no goal you are lost. So what you should do is to learn how to live fullfiled life in a moment, but also set some goals that you want to pursue (not should pursue) and then pursue it. It's that simple.

  4. not really,... it provides fulfillment. Different thing

  5. and yet you are engaging in a small talk on youtube... don't delude yourself. You don't hate small talks, you can't hate small talks (that's like hating the fact you need food to survive), you just hate the fact you suck at small talks, that your social skills are shit. If you think you hate it then you don't understand what small talk is and what is its function in society. Stop that "new-edge" crap that you are a lost individual in this stupid world in which nobody gets you, everybody else is stupid, rules suck, adults are idiots and stuff like that. There are evolutionary reasons, written deep in your essence of being, for why small talks exist. So stop that crap and take control over your steering wheel. I recommend reading "Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins. It puts your life in perspecitve.

  6. Then you are not listening either. If they so desperately wanna tell you something, acknowledge it and then finish the topic no matter how long it takes which will result in opennings... if they keep repeating the same thing then YOU failed as a listener. If they keep ignoring what you have to say, either speak up about it, or find new people to talk to.

  10. it's all good until you don't feel batman for him

  11. there is one sleazy trick you can use.. It's sleazy because you are being arrogant a bit, but it works. Anyway the trick is to ask question, confidently (with smile perhapse), and if they don't respond or they respond in a bad way (whatever the bad way is for you) remain confident and make them feel socially awkward. Be like: "wtf dude, i am just being polite, that's what people usually do in this situation, why are you acting so weird and socially awkward?" mentality. If you can project that feeling to them, they will start investing in conversation immediately because nobody wants to be socially awkward (except for people who are socially awkward in general). To summarize.. Act like everything you do is what people should do and usually do in that particular situation and if they don't go along with you, they are just being weirdos.

  12. be careful with throwing word "acid" around, lol... someone might misinterpret that

  13. Nah, he is too weak in his head to succeed in NBA

  15. it's not your perception of life and things you like to do that makes you either genius or not. Feynman was a genius and he had plenty of sex as it is said in the video. After all you can't escape your physical body and biological needs and pleasures. Saying that you are not a slave of your biological body so that's why you are not having sex is an absolute delusion. Yes, Isaac was deluded, actually i don't know his exact opinion on sex, but i assume he thought of it as pointless so that's why he wasn't wasting his time aroung with sex. Not having a sex doesn't make him genius, but the way he thought of it is what makes him a genius. Geniuses overthink everything, they even overthink overthinking. They are rationalizing everything. The one and only trait of a genius. Geniuses are those kids who ask about everything trying to make sense of life.
    35
  16. Actually not.. because we have no choice but to go if we want to survive as a species. That reason alone is stronger than all of those 5.

  17. No, from her perspective she is still the one compliacting things.
    33
  18. he reminds me of one of the columbine killers
    31
  19. That's not really a great advice because that way you are just deluding yourself that things are easy to get, as in you dont need to put an extra effort to achieve whatever you want to achieve. You essentially ignore bad stuff... much better advice would be to interpret your physiological state in a positive way. For example, if you are about to have job interview and you feel nervous, dont think about it as a nervousness, think of it as if you are excited because this could be a starting point of something big, etc. Funny thing is that symptoms of feeling nervous and being excited are the same!! So it's really down to what you make of it... stay positive that way, dont delude yourself thinking only good can happen.
    29
  20. so in short: make yourself busy with things you love to do and everything else will come to its place.

  21. I can give you example, yesterday i was on main square with 4 girls and 2 guys from my college class standing and waiting for tram and i started conversation asking every one of them which path they are heading. All of them answered except for one girl that was like, - "why would you ask, why would you care, it's none of your business, it's my private life..." (she was just teasing, but still), i responded to her: - "why would i not ask?, i am just making a conversation going. everyone said where they are going, what's the big deal" - i got an agreement form the group and whole focus was on her. She kept teasing for a little bit more than she stopped for the rest of the night. I also told her in joking way that i will never ask her that question ever again because he clearly is upset by it (and i mean it). She gave me smile. That also gives me fundation for future jokes. Simple line like: "I would ask you where are you going now but i said i will never do that again so..". That line will make her giggle for a bit. The point is, as long as you act confidently and assuming that you are acting the way people should act in that social situation, you have nothing to worry about.

  23. who cares? 99,9% of all species went extinct. It's our planet now
    24
  24. gad dammit, tell us about the novel..
    23
  25. because people get too obssesed with feeling that they have to apply what they have learn so they overthink everything, their every move then at the end they actually become, guess what, creppy because of incongruence. They don't act naturally, but weird.
    23
  26. have you ever worked like a slave and made six figures? No, so how do you know what would you prefer? This could easily be lazyness to take action talking instead of you.
    22
  27. Why exactly would you go back? We know what's there, hype is over and it's not a fun trip you would take your family on and enjoy! oh and did i mention the cost?
    22
  28. You can work out literally whenever you want (every option is better than not working out).. just make sure you get enuogh sleep to produce enough growth hormone (or something like that). Sleep regularly and with quality, that's all you need to know.
    21
  29. I completely empathize with him. It's a perfectly reasonable question and i, myself, would also have a hard time phrasing it without coming across as an arrogant prick. People who complain about it are probably low in a thread openness and don't like to engage in such conversation in first place, therefore can't sympathize with the guy whatsoever. His struggle is just as real as if extroverted person was in a room full of introverts. Imagine that scenario and you'll get it. He is not trying to be arrogant, but it is a real issue.
    20
  30. You don't understand the complexity of the designs you saw. It's not just a shape that you are looking at, but everything, from look and structure to functionality and cost.. it would took a lifetime of an advanced mathematician to come up with a single design like those, while it takes few hours (i guess) to come up with it. It's like battling at calculating against calculator. Sure we know how to calculate, but the amount of information we can proceed at one time is incomparable to calculator's capabilities and that's the whole point he was talking about.

    17
  34. Why would it have to be either Sam or Jordan. I've been watching Jordan for a long time and only recently discovered that Sam has his podcats as well and i am completely hooked. Quality content is quality content.... why would you even have to "follow" someone in first place?
    17
  35. I've never understood those people who think they have a life figured out so they impose their beliefs on others. It's not up to you to decide whether that's a good or a bad choice, so shut up.
    16
  36. +Rishab Babji Exactly. HIMYM Is more than regular sitcome. You learn so much about life while watching it. "just because it hits a wider spectrum of emotion." I love this sentence
    15
  37. "How to get your ideas SPREAD" ... obviously it has to be useful if it's going to catch on.
    14
  38. i wouldn't say that she doesn't have charisma at all, she does, but it seems inappropriate.. i would say that they don't have chemistry. They wouldn't make a great couple, because they are on a different wavelengths. He is obviously more into his thoughts and she is light hearted, very light hearted. Some people love that others don't. Not that any of them is right or wrong to be in that state, but they don't match, simple as that, no chemistry.
    14
  39. just because women dates an attractive guy doesn't mean she dates him only because he is an attractive guy. You are jealous and this is how you make yourself feel better. Shake it off dude.
    14
  40. He actually said crucial thing/argument. If you dont allow AI an access to stuff, it can do only so much. No matter how inteligent you are you still need physical capabilities and power to do things. Thats why you dont see nerds getting in NBA hitting half court shots despite being capable of calculating every angle and force to tinniest detail... think about that. We have a huge upper hand.
    13
  41. I found out about Jordan Peterson via those short clips and i am pretty sure i am not the only one like that, so channel is indeed very valuable..
    13
  42. That's compeltely false. Obviously you can name people who fit the description, but as easily, i could name people who don't. No surprise there.
    12
  43. so you are basically saying,. stay delusional folks. Nice. I mean delusional people tend to be happier, but god dammit, you are delusional. Animals live happier life as well because they live instinctively and they don't overthink, but there are fucking animals. Do you really want to be like an animal. When you already got presented with an opportunity to live deeper life why don't you do it. He hasn't spoke about anything else, but facts and an actual psychological studies. If unkown scares you, why the fuck did you click on this video in first place..
    12
  44. 27:16 "Very Christian of you" hahaha

  47. how dare you to bring your arrogant ass remotely close to this nice, humble fucking comment section
    11
  48. You are actually way off.. the things you said there are fairytales that parents tell their kids. "Hard work beats talent": No it doesn't. An inteligent person, with little to no work ethics, will be way more successful than uninteligent person, in certain domains. It's just the way it is. And the inteligent person with no work ethics has its own suited domain at which it relishes,.. those are mostly creative geniuses (high in openness, low in conscientiousness) so they are anything but "worthless", as you refered to them.
    11
  49. confidence, confidence, confidence.. that's literally everything you have to master. Working on being confident every day and you will be able to do anything without looking like a fucking clown.
    10
  50. a m i feel sorry for you... i am not handsome and i barely get rejected. I am the "i don't usually date such kind of guys" guy. It's all about confidence.You will probably ask why i am here then.. well that's the problem, i know what to do and i am still eager to learn more, to see it from a different angle, improve my "game", while you are here just to tell that this doesn't work without even applying what you have learned. Because after all, this really is just a game. Attraction is essentially "chasing game". Giving positive body language then taking that positive body language away, making her feel that she doesn't have you and makes her curious about your intentions. That's literally all. i feel pitty for all of you. you don't know what you are missing.

  51. how is that not innovative? a subway for CARS,. we havent had those yet

  52. Elon is actively involved in all the major engineering challenges his companies come across. You have to understand that Tesla wasn't a normal person (he slept for only 2 hours a day, could do crazy stuff in his head, etc.), comparing anyone to him is ridiculous. Elon is incredibly inteligent, but as expected he is not working on things alone, but he has a huge team along side him. Which is good because two+ brains are more efficient than one.

  53. Rishab Babji Absolutely...  Far more iconic moments between two of them: The way it starts and finishes, with blue french horn (smurf penis) Purple Girrafe.. Nothing good happens after 2 am The best prom ever.. Come on (He fucking did rain dance for her) The day of the first Ted's wedding (with Stella) "Where do you see yourself in 5 years" moment All those crazy speeches about love (that's more than crazy.I don't think there is word for that - Leading expert in the field of making ass of myself. It's just a building It's very sucky way to feel about your best friend's fience After all this years, if there is slightest chance to make Robin smiles, i don't even think about it, i just do it THere is no top 5 Robin, There is just top one, and it's you..... etc, etc.) It was fulfied with so much more emotions. HIMYM is more than sitcome, more than a show.

  54. clearly a clickbait. what a douche

  55. how did you get here???.. how did you get to the video about chicken's body temperature?

  56. It can't be pyhsically proved because everytime you make predicition, measurements fall apart cuze your interaction.. similar to quantum mechanics. It would theoretically be possible from 3rd person perspective, from God's perspective looking at universe on a timeline, but from our point, impossible. It's like trying to see your back in a mirror by quickly turning around. Having that said, determinism is only thing that makes sense. Free will exists within limitations of our being hence the laws, but absolute free will, not, not even the slightest. The way you decide to handle the situation and all of your internal desires, bla bla bla, is determined by past events.

  57. string theory is his daily job

  58. Tracy is Ted's soulmate, the show made it very clear that from the moment they introduced her into show that he didn't care the slightest what is going on with Robin. Robin is sort of back up girlfriend. If they don't end up with anyone else they will get married and all those sort of things. You can be in love with one person for very long period of time even is she is not type of person you should be dating, and then fall out of love without single hatred: The hell that happened to me, but that doesn't mean she is love of his life. They don't make sense, they built a huge rapport meaning they will never stop being friends, but as a couple they don't have that something that Tracy and Ted clearly have.
    8
  59. You are a moron if you think Elon is doing nothing and is just getting credit for others' work. Elon probably doesn't stop working, ever, except when you see him giving interviews. It's true that he doesn't work on a lot of things like hyperloop for example, but that's purely because he physically can't, he has only 24h a day as everybody else. If he could he would, but he can't. There is also another thing: If you are math teacher at university would you waste your time solving primary school homework? That's essentialy the case with Elon. Why would he bother dealing with something like hyperloop (which is, like he said in video, "not that hard") if there are less inteligent people than him that could do just as effective job. It's complete waste of his potential. Elon is dealing with more advanced engineering problems. I would guess mostly around SpaceX because that's the field of engineering that needs his ingeniuty.

  60. quick tip that i found on my own... i practice being confident through playing a role/ being playful. Literally act like a confident guy (slightly cocky if you know what i mean, teasing around) and if anyone asks you, you are just having a fun that's all. Eventually you will find really easy to say the most wild things you have never thought you could say to a girl or anyone for that matter
    8
  61. Why would everybody need to like her personality? We are all different and we all like different things and that's how supposed to be. You don't have to like her, but if you hate here then you have a problem.
    8
  62. It's not that people with low IQ have no value in society, they do, it just that people with higher IQ have higher value (but, as such, also have more responsibility). They contribute more. It's that simple. That contradicts the popular belief that all people are equal which is just false. People seem to have problem accepting that fact. Hard work won't change that. There are people who are smarter than others and there is nothing you can do about it. Deal with it. it doesn't make you worth less on broader picture tho.
    8
  63. In future we probably wouldn't need to make "living off" something. You are not thinking out of the box. You can do a creative work without being creative on a global scale. You writting this comment down is a creative engagment, but you are not going to be paid for it. The point is that we will all become completely free from doing repetitive jobs. We will completely turn to curiosity and will engage only in creative tasks because we like that,. no matter how beneficial they are to society. It wouldn't matter at all, because we will have everything in abundance. From food to health care. I completely agree with all the things he said, but they are major issues on psychophysiological level that aren't adressed yet by anyone i've heard of.

  64. learn how to spell, for starters.

  65. They should have made one more season of Tracy and Ted having fun before she dies and everything would be okay, even if Ted went for Robin at the end. Only thing i don't like about the end is that it ended so soon. They introduced this gorgeous interesting character aka love of Ted's life (which is point of whole serie) and they just like that, end the show immediately. I wanted to see more of Tracy and Ted.
    7
  66. We can't grasp concept of free will. Maybe we control those random processes, maybe we don't,.. it's beyond our knowledge, as quite frankly, many things are as well. All we know is that there is no such thing as determinism, meaning that if we knew all of the information in universe, we still wouldn't be able to determine future. Entropy/information of the universe is not a constant as many scientist believed back in the days, but it is getting bigger each time quantum event happens (2nd law of termodynamics), meaning that there is no rational way to determine future. that's the bottom line.
    7
  67. Tip #0 : don't ever use word date again. You are not going on a date with a girl, you are meeting with her, 'hanging out'. The word date puts too much pressure o her and on you as well,.. plus it reveals your intentions straightaway, which kills all the curiousity. Go out as a friend and escalate your realtionship by touching her and having fun. Believe me, it is 10 times less awkward if both of you have 'this is not a date' mentality.
    7
  68. We are prisoners of our own drives and instincts,.. computers, AI and all those things are not. People are looking at it from completely wrong perspective. They will never attack us because they don't have motivation to do so. They are sole inteligence with no agendas or needs to do anything.

  74.  @bez1196  You are overrating religions (tho i am not familiar with all of them). Read the Bible once and you will be more confused than you were to begin with, because the wisdom is embedded in stories, which is "wisdom" but still not that helpful. It doesnt offer you any tangible reason why you should follow the teachings. This is were Jung, JP and others come with their articulations. They give you intellectually valid reasons to pursue the teachings. Wisdom without articulation is not a real wisdom in my book. For example, you (or anyone), currently, in your unconscious, posses an incredible amount of information about the world, but you are not aware of it. The way it manifest itself is through intuition or gut feeling or conscience, you name it, but it's not a real wisdom. JP said something like this: "You dont know what you dont know, but you also dont know what you know." As far as origins of wisdom are considered, i believe it is similar to emergence of morality, through acting things out our unconscious mind detects patterns that lead to the best possible outcome (sustainable life for everyone in community), thats wisdom and thats what you read in stories, but it's not articulated.

  75. Wrong and very egocentric of a human being to think so. CO2's effect on a climate is a fact and we know exactly where CO2 comes from to the atmosphere, there are satellites up there that track CO2 levels and it confirms everything. More CO2, higher temperatures... you are simply wrong claiming otherwise. It's there and it's manmade, data is clear. PERIOD... The Earth is also a globe.

  78. you are taking the word nothingness too literally.. "Nothingness" is just a bunch of letters in order that label its meaning. Those letters doesn't have any meaning by itself. It could have been labeled as "lifeless" or "timeless" it doesn't mean that science think it has anything to do with life or time whatsoever. It's just awkward name. We don't actually know what it is but we have to call it somehow, if you have a better idea make a suggestion to the ones who can change english language. The same way The Earth is The Earth instead of The Water which would be more suitable name because there is 79% of water on The Earth. It doesn't make sense but sometimes you just have to deal with names.

  79. He is just acting that way. He is clearly a showman

  80. If you are really inteligent just rewatch the video again and you will get it. IQ is a predictor, not a rule. Obviously luck, your path in life and everything else will have the influence on zeros on your bank account, body fat, and so on. He never said that person with 122 IQ will in no circumstance be more successful than person with 142 IQ. IQ only gives you 36% (at most) prediction of life success, still other things matter. You could say that EQ is just a "mix" between IQ and extraversion (Peterson said something like that), which means it's not separated, unique dimension of inteligence hence it doesn't exist as such. Let me go with this analogy. There are 3 fundamental colors that we see. Red, Green and Blue. Analogously, openness (inteligence), extraversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness, agreeableness are fundamental properties of personality. By mixing colors and personality traits you get different colors and different people. Now you are arguing that EQ is real, while it is "real", strictly speaking, it's not fundamental color/property so there is not point of defining it (in psychology) because you get it by mixing two MORE fundamental properties. It's like as if EQ was purple, you would get it by mixing red (let's say IQ) and blue (let's say extraversion). Value of defining EQ is just as useful as defining different personalities like perfectionists or any other. What you have exprienced in your life are benefits of your different personalty traits along side your inteligence. There is only one inteligence. Inteligence mixed with different personality traits result in different range of success in different cirucmstances.
    6
  81. There is nothing wrong with iq tests. I dont agree with what the lady from the video considers a genuis, which is basically an outstanding ability to manipulate information (quick thinking, high IQ). For me being a genius means, along side having such mental capacities, you must know how to think outside of the box and take on new perspectives when necessarly. She basically advises you to not be an egoistic, arrogant prick cuze high IQ can make one out of you (that's the arrogance of the intellect).. have some humility and question everything, even your existing assumptions.

  83. i don't know with what kind of people you are hanging out with, but by "surrounded by people you like" it implies what you just said in second part of your text (the type of people you like) I don't understand this "even if i like them" part, can you like them and dislike them in the same time?

  84. i love you and Jordan

  85.  @Daneiladams555  Exactly, it doesnt have inherit meaning, but this is cool part about your, mine and everyone's life. We are prisoners of our biology. What you feel, see, hear is determined by chemistry, physics, etc (this is not a cool part, stay with me). Considering evolution, what survives is the most compatible for survival, meaning that evolution must have taken care of the whole meaningless situation. There must be something within us (idk, neurotransmitter or hormone or both or perhaps something much more complex) that drive humans towards living. If there was nothing we wouldnt last till now. You dont have to intellectually attach meaning to anything abstract to live a meaningful life, your biology already takes care of that. Surround yourself with people who seem to do it right, copy them and you will probably get the same results. Check Jordan Peterson, he seems to help a lot of people in the same situation.
    6
  86.  @PS-os6sr  Not even close. Living a meaningful life doesnt imply sunshine and rainbows, it means acting in the intrest of a transcendental concept even if it means you will suffer horribly as a result. You have to be willing to die (suffer) for an ideal. If you watch Game of Thrones, that's Jon Snow. What we consider a happy life is a life in which only thing (or most of the time) you experience are positive emotions, zero suffering. Reason why you should focus on the meaningful life is because it's the only sustainable way of living and as a result, you feel fulfilled (that proud-like feeling of doing the right thing (the sense of belonging in the universe) and of clear conscience). If you focus on making yourself feel good all the time, you will fall in depression sooner or later. Dont take my word for it, try it!

  93. The tip he gave actually decreases anxiety more than it increases focus. Anxiety occures mostly when facing unkown and emotionally overwhelming situation. If you, beforehand, prepare yourself (in the sense, you know how to deal with it when it occurs) you will feel less anxious when that moment actually arrives. The key is to think about the ways you can deal with anxiety attacks if and when they occur. If you think about how stupid you will look like when anxiety attack happens, guess what, you will look stupid. The point is to know what to do when it happens, then when it happens, recognize that is happening and do what you prepared yourself to do. That's essentially what Charles said. It ain't that hard. Preparation mostly consists of taking deep breaths, reality checks and classic stuff.

  96. more accurate, but still off the mark. Saying that is like saying that i would prefer to buy chocolate over vanilla, while i have never tasted vanilla in first place. Such statement comes from the fear of unknown. You can't know if you would prefer to live with or without him/her. More accurate would be: "I could live without you, but i am too emotionally engaged into relationship with you, you are big part of my life and losing you would place me in new, uncomfortable position so i am afraid of how life without you would look like. I prefer known over unkown".

  98. Consider this: if you play a chess game against a superinteligent AI, but you start the game in a way you pre configure inevitable win for yourself in just two moves, meaning no matter what it does, you have an ability to defeat it with only two moves, it doesn't matter how inteligent it is, you always win. It can't break chess rules. We have an upper hand in it (we can set any configuration we want), and if we are cautious enough, it can't get out of losing position. Analogously, chess rules are laws of physics. That means that no matter how inteligent it becomes it still has to obey laws, for example, it can't grow extremities out of nothing, which is our golden opportunity to fully control it. That also means one little mistake might be the last one we ever make, but we are reasonably inteligent ourselves so... i am confident about situation.

  101. Evolution is/was a race that has one winner, us. It turns out we, humans, are the most competent sequence of genes for survival on this planet and as such we get to make rules. Animals are failed product of evolution so, i say we use them to farther the likelyhood of our survival in this hostile universe. As far as i can see, alive animals are useful in three cases: 1. for the purposes of zoology 2. pets 3. eco system If they dont fullfil any of these categories, kill them and use them as a resource of any kind. One example is the source of energy aka food.

  105. Not true Zain844. You get completely washed up after some time if you don't engage in intellectual conversations. What you are refering to are perhapse intellectuals who are also extroverts (so they have an urge to engage in any conversation) or pehaprse high in agreeableness so they simply don't like to put their ideas upon someone else, but they rather go along with the topic the person they talk to come up with.. it gets very complicated, but don't think such people are happy with just small talks.

  107. Silver Night it's just called evolution that species has to make to become 3rd type of civlization (by Michu Kaku). It's apstract to us at this very moment, not something we usually deal with, but it doesn't make it wrong at all. if you tried to explain internet to Mayans it would be somethign mindblowing to them, now you connect on internet without thinking about how fascinating that actually is to be able to speak to someone on the other side of the planet. Immortality is not something that will happen tommorrow, we (as a species) will gradually get to the point of immortality. First you we will cure cancer (very soon), it will be topic of history, then we will be able to create organs from scratch, then optionally changing genes, etc.. It will blend in our society and it won't seem as fascinating. Obviously immortality raises many questions along the way. Ethical side of the story will be dealt with gradually as well, i don't know how we will think in future, that is left to be seen..

  109. if someone asked you a question first you look at him... but you should also invite other people in coversation by making an eye contact. But it's key to not go from eye contact with one person to an eye contact with another too fast. If you are telling the story, first 6-8 seconds look at person who asked you or who was talking right before you, then look at other person for at least 3 seconds, then other and so on... If there are like more than 5 people in conversation then you have to separate them in groups, like: one group of people in front me, people next to me from right and people next to me from left side and then give each group eye contact. in short, just invite everyone with eye contacts, but don't move your head too fast, you still want to move slowly and talk slowly because that projects confidence.

  112. "Having children is the most selfish thing a person can do. " I wouldn't agree with this. Although comprehending life is fearful, i would rather be born and experience that fear than simply not to be born because after all, there is way to enjoy life. Also it's prescripted in our genes that we want to have descendants... this life is not about you, it's about humans as a species. It's important to doing what we have been doing so far. Reproduce

  113. It doesn't have purpose for you as an individual person, but you have to look at things from bigger perspective. We have purpose on the scale of human as a species. How could you possible know that humans will go extinct? That's the point, you don't know. You are part of a evolution that tries to explore the universe and essentially become immortal... Our curiosity is pushing us forward. Maybe it's possible to go through wormhole and go to parralel universe and then you can relive all moments again. You can't possibly know, That's why we live. To know what we can do and what we can't, and along the line to become immortal. You just have crappy life and no one took care of you experiencing world in right way. i enjoy life. There are so many interesting things to do and explore. Psychology is very interesting to me, as well as science... have fun in life and make a child. In future they will know more than we do so let them deal with that problem. Simple as that.

  115. I wouldn't agree that my life would be any different if i encountered Jordan Peterson earlier. I mean, put your life in context. In my case, being 20 myself, i am hitting that age at which things like that become relevant to me and i actually have enough sense to think about stuff like that. Obviously if you are 50 it doesn't apply the same way to you, but the point is that, i think, some things he talks about are probably too complex ideas to be taken seriously by a 15 year old kid (high school kid). He would just ignore everything that is said to him. (I know i had completely ignored reading high quality books for grades in a high school. Now it's completely different story. Back then, they just didn't appeal to me and i guess it would be the same way with things like this.) I am not saying education as it is right now is right, or that there is nothing we can do to improve, on contrary, there are some principles Jordan talks about that could be (and should be) thought earlier, but nothing too extreme i would say. What's mostly wrong with the education is the system of how they learn, not what they learn. It's not that big of a deal, especially because a curious kid, who wants to hear things like that in first place and is willing to act them out, will find ideas like that on internet on his own. People who would find talks like that useful are actually finding them via internet. Including me, you and everyone else watching this. People who are not searching for videos like this are the one who wouldn't find intrinsic value in them even if they watched it.

I have never agreed with Jordan on the fundamental question, but you can be damn sure i watch all of his content sucking out every bit of information i can and there is a looot of info. Because he is biased, he is so refreshing with approaches. Sam would never come to conclusions Jordan did, neither would I and that's great. Jordan does all the hardwork and i steal what's useful

  125. - -  , i talk from an experience. I used to say that i "hate" small talks, but as it turns out, i just wasnt good at it, and i love them now. I am an introvert, btw. After a huge party, i need 3 days for myself, to be with my thoughts only, to energize, then i am good to go again (definition of an introvertism is not that you dont like socializing, but that you get tired by it, opposed to extroverts who get energized by it). I love every bit of socializing, but not too often. You might not like small talks, but hate is too strong word. It's like saying: "I love swimming, but i hate getting wet." It makes no sense. You are lying. Small talk is just a medium to get to deeper conversation, a stage of interaction in which you build trust. You need it, i need it, everybody needs it, that's why it is there so let go off your ego and fucking get good at it. You dont hate small talks, you just hate engaging in an activity you suck at. Do something about that!

  142. +Zenn Exile Inteligence can be simplified as ability to learn. Higher your inteligence is at certain field, faster you will learn that particular thing, but here is the thing, although some people are naturally more inteligent than others in some fields (and by naturally mean, they accidentaly became that way), it doesn't mean you can't catch up with there speed of learning, so to speak. All it takes is to be aware of that and then change who you are, it's that "simple". Here is also another point of view. Everything you do and the way you perceive reality is determined by your beliefs and beliefs change, so everything in life is interchangeable so it's inteligence. I think i could sum up all those inteligence into one. It's called being open minded. Person who tends to be open minded (but still critical), learn faster than anyone else. Bare with that in your mind.

  146.  @laxifax-8575  oh man, this is anything but deep. I went down the rabbithole. I gave it much more thought than that and i think i understand it. Let me ramble for a bit then tell me what you think: Every sane human being lives in a story, meaning that everyone has certain assumptions, beliefs about life. You see the world through the lenses of that story. The story is what shapes your perception. Change the story you believe in, you change your perceptions of the physical world. For example, if you thonk you are a loser and you are destined to do nothing in life, you will see the events around you in the context of that narrative. Change the narrative and you change how you see that event. You have certain beliefs about who you are, what you want, where you are going (at least unconsciously you have) and there are people and things in life that fill in archtypes of your story. There have to be arxhtypes because every story is fundamentally built of many archtypes interacting with each other. Thats what story is in its purest form. Stories are all the same, the difference between them is only the context, or what fills archtypes. There is an archtype of a father figure, mother figure, hero, villain and so on. You can literally fill them with your father and mother(..), but more often than not, other people (even things) fill in that role. Thats unique for every single human being and ultimately what makes you different than others. Christianity is just one of the infinite amount of stories you can live out. Whether its the best or not remains for the debate. My strong feeling is that it's not the best although it is pretty good and it served its purpose for millenials. The reason i think its outdated is because if you dont understand what i am saying right now, truely believing in the story of Christ, you will encounter a lot of friction in your life due to science. You will believe the Earth is flat while in fact it's not, and so on. You will think the bible is a factual story. It's not and it was never supposed to be. This is the story of how Christianity came about: Imagine yourself 2500 years ago as the part of some stable civilization. Humans are infinitely curious and when we formed civilizations, our chances of survival, as an individual, skyrocketed. Due to the conveniences of group living, we didnt have to spend our whole lifes thinking about how to survive on day to day basis. We, all of a sudden, got a lot of free time. At that time humans being humans started wondering, stared asking difficult questions and at the time, because there was no science, we had no way to answer those questions. Here huge problem araises. We are obsessed with knowing things. People are not comfortable not knowing, living in complete ignorance, but we could not answer them with logic. So what did we do? As always, we started to create hypothesis. We began to create stories of who we are, where are we going to, where are we coming from. Sounds fimiliar? Hold on, it gets better. So how do we go from humans started to create stories to the masterpiece that, objectively, the story of Christ, is? It takes the path of everything, that is complicated, does, the path of evolution. There was a mini evolution among stories that originated from the western culture. They were told from a generation to a generation and only stories that made sense, that were great, survived or were retold and ultimately have been written as the bible. It is the work of the principles of evolution and many anonymous writers and editors. Thats what accounts for complexity of religious texts. You can make a masterpiece and dont know why it is a masterpiece. The best way to demonstrate how that is possible is to reflect on yourself. Youve probably tried to, at one point in your life, create a storyn a movie or a series or a comic book, something. And youve probably had some amazing idea for plot that was so amazing you could barely stand the excitement youve experienced at that moment. Everybody had that moment. The question is, why did that plot make you feel excited and not some other plot? What is about storytelling thats so exciting? The answer is the same that guided writers and editors to the story of Jesus and thats that we intuitevly know when we hit the jackpot in storytelling and when we dont. Hitting the jackpot is the moment when we nail the archtypes of the story and we nail the way interact between each other in the way that makes perfect sense. This is where wisdom lies. That "perfect sense" is your brain telling you there is something fundamentally important about that. Through series of "this makes sense" moments, people can create the bible without knowing why it makes sense. When Jordan Peterson goes out there and blows your mind with insights he got from the bible, what he is doing is explaining and artixulating why it makes sense. And this is not unique to the bible, every story that has ever been told can be artixulated and explained. The best movies and books and series of all times completely nail the archtypes and their interactions which means all of them are full of wisdom. You can learn from them as muxh from the bible. I could go on, but this is where my thoughts are about religion atm.

The same way spaceships will have all the essentials for us to live at, plus all the leisure activities. It's just that their trips will be thousands of years and more long.

For example, you aint going to convert a 45 years old raised and born Christian into an atheist or agnostic cuze it's too big of a step for him to make. Some people choose delusion over change because it's convenient. If he decided to change then hed need to make sense of his previous 45 year and revaluate some core questions: how come he didnt see it till now, what happens when i die, etc... chaotic situation so good luck with that. Certainty, although false, is preferable over uncertainty.

  162. Mr. Note on the individual level there is no point of anything.. but in the group as a species we do have purpose, that's our point to make sure our species surivive. The way i deal with it is through emotions, through laugh to be more precise. Laugh is my life.. make sure you and people around you lough and you will have purpose. Emotions are so strong that we can forget about everything in that moment. When you have time of your life and you think about death, it's just doesn't matter.. you don't care. so, for me, that's the way to go. Laugh and experiencing everything, just to make sure i don't miss on anything. I am not going to delude myself thinking there is greater purpose of our life. We live shortly and our contribution to the society is everything we can do so let's be it.

And makes you look like a low value (desperate) man if you do it very early in interaction. I am not saying it's impossible to do it if you ask her for a date, but it's way more comfortable and easier for you and for her. Just learn how to escalate

  171. Not true, WIldCard. You can't know before actually losing someone out of your life (not necessary dead). For example, i was so anxious finishing high school. I knew my path will seperate from my very close friends who were basically everything in my past 4 years and i thought that i would rather live with them around for the rest of my life then without them. Guess what, 1 year into college and although i am still contact them, i don't miss them much at all and i have never been in better place than right now. You can't know whether you would rather live with or without certain person before you actually lose them, impossible. No matter how close you were, eventually time will erase your attachment to them and you will continue to live free from them. Another example is when you are in love with someone. Of course if you ask person who is in love right now with someone if he would rather live with or without her that he would prefer "with", but falling in love is just a feeling that comes and goes. One moment you are in love with her, another you couldn't care less about her. The point is that only reason why would you think that you know whether you would rather live with, certain person, than without is because you are too damn close to the puzzle atm, you are too emotionally engaged which blinds you into thinking you know the answer, but You don't know, you can't know.

  173. Internet Hobo i agree, perhapse some mutations could be reason of genetical superiority (like with "human calculator", he was meassured to have abnormaly large part of the brain for calculating), but the way i see it is not that you have advantage with better genetics, but you sort of have less limits (bigger potential). Black people generally have better genetics for physical activites than white people, but it doesn't mean that they have necessarly higher athletic (or whatever) inteligence. We, as humans, have a genetical limit of how fast we can run. I hope you see my point.

  187.  @user-hu7ym1ex1o  It just tells you what to do. It doesnt give you why in fundamental sense and especially not how.. tell me where does the Bible address an issue of overwhelming amount of information or the fact you have so many rights and protection by society that you dont have to move a finger to survive (except small percentage). It gives you nothing unless someone smart articulates it and puts it into context. That's why people dont take it seriously despite having a valuable information.

Its like investing/donating money for betterment of our future. Thats the trust no other car company offers you. They all look for profit, but not Elon.......... Tesla is so much more than a car company. Its a symbol of clean and uncorrupted future where people work together to better our lifes.

  190. All that rambling while you haven't explained why we are obliged to act differently just because we can empathize. Where did you get that from? Bible? Intruding that opinion and your morals on someone else is actually against the fundamental law of being a human. You have no right to do that. Life is a game. This is part of an evolution, there are no morals in the game of evolution, it is about survival of the fittest. We are the fittest,. the end. People saying that is on the level of trying to force upon rules in war. It's war, there are no rules. Only thing we should care about is how to improve our community thus our quality of life. And our community is fucking independent on whether there is a pig walking around or not so you can do to the pig whatever you want. We should care about different things, like how to preserve bees and animals that we have use of... Those things like "oh, polar bears are about to be extinct, we should save them." Fuck polar bears, they are useless to us. Where would we get in long run if we were up to saving every fucking animal that goes remotely extinct? Some animals are supposed to get extinct, it's called natural selection and as word say itself, it's NATURAL.
    2
  191. ^^ Of course it's not okay for psychopaths to kill because that harms our community and our lifes. Killing animals doesn't affect our quality of life. Those are apple and oranges. I am tired of those sentimental bullshits and moralists.

  192. That's nonsense.. seeing patterns that bring more success to you doesn't mean you are capable of going down that road. if what you are saying was the case, then we would have no problem at building self discpline, new habits, etc. Life would be much easier if we could just switch are behaviour and personality however we want to suit demands. It's self evident that that's not how it is. We are more than just our inteligence. We are prisoners of our personality, inteligence, etc. Inteligent, competitive person will have a hard time being cooperative even if he knows that is what is a problem in a certain situation. That's not sign of less inteligent person, it's the sign of different personality. You are basically throwing away whole concept of personality which is an absolute nonsense. Btw, first you have to be "attacked" to have a defensive reaction. Personality is merely a genetical code that tells us how to conduct ourselves in the world. There is nothing defensive about it.

  193. All such emotions come from fear of something. Track that fear down then rationalize your way into thinking that it is okay to fear that thing. Basically, just accept the fear and move on

  196. Confidence and arrogance/cockiness are two different things. If you are too confident in your abilities you are not necessarly arrogant, but simply too confident. Arrogance is an attitude.. it's about being intrusive, narcissistic. It's an ego-driven behaviour.

  200. Thomas, that first part of your comment scares the shit out of me like rarely something does. It seems that, as you get older, you lose ability to remain open minded. Einstein might be the most open minded person we have record of, he thought us how to look at fucking time, (as if there was something wrong in our perception of time, at the time) and so on, yet in his latter years of his life, he couldnt wrap his head around quantum physics insisting it was a complete nonsense. Now we know that Einstein's theories of relativity werent wrong per se, but just that there was more to life than that... i get the same feeling about Peterson,.. he is not wrong, but he fails to recognize (not open minded enough) that it's time to update some parts of his ideas, or rather, give a different dimension to it. I value truth over anything else in life and whole notion that i could easily fall into closed minded mentality scares me. I was thinking a lot about it, how i could prevent that, and i came up with few ideas: 1. Stop identfying with anything other than what's factual about me. For example if i shared opinions of an atheist, i wouldnt call myself an atheist. By doing so you dont fall into "confirmation bias", "positive reinforcement" trap. Factual example would be something like, i am a human being, i am male, etc. 2. Use phrase "i think" a lot and dont let yourself get attached to your accomplishments of any sort because then pride gets you... what do you think

  204. No that's not important do define at all. What you defined in first sentence is a responsibility/an illusion of free will. Free will, in the sense that we can make a decision independent of environmentally influences, does not exist. We are limited by our experience and everything we consciously "decide" is a response on serie of events that happened to us that affected us, mostly unconsciously hence the illusion. It needs to be said that random is still not a free will. Random is an argument against deterministic universe, but that's completely different discussion.

  208. It's not "limited" definition of happiness because that would imply that he is wrong in a sense, which he isn't. Term can be separated into two different meaning: an actual happiness and what we think that will make us happy so we (people, generally, in society) call that happiness. He obviously used the second part to prove his overal point, which makes absolute sense so he is right. He could have explained it better, but Big think tend to cut videos short. Anyway, word happiness is widely misunderstood in society which is source of confusion, just like words theory/scientific theory, etc.

  217. What if after civilization gets at certain level of knowledge/realization they simply kill themself because it seems as a reasonable option. Right now, there are plenty of things to learn, but what happens when you learn everything and you become capable of doing whatever you want, (you can only know as much as universe allows you to know)..what happens next, what exactly that type of civilization would do, what's their purpose? It's not like they are driven by unanswered questions or mysteries because there aren't any of it. You want to play piano perfectly, be a perfect football player, know all of the calculus? You jsut download one file and booom,.. you are perfect being capable of whatever you want in matter of microseconds. What do you do then? Maybe the greatest enemy of our consciousness is our consciousness itself?

  218. Right analogy would be: Imagine playing an rpg game, there are many levels, 100th being the limit. You are enjoying the progress of learning, collecting or wahtever the game is about and you have certain goals/achievements you wanna reach within game, but then XX years later you reach 100th level.. You are able to kill anyone with one hit, you have all accessories possibilies, you've won every achievement, you can't get any stronger because you reached 100th level, what happens then? (It's not like creator of the game will update it with new super fun features) You've done everything you could possibly do. At that point game becomes predicitable and boring so you simply quit it,.. you stop playing it. What if that's the faith we are approaching to..

  226. Spotted. Fun and humor is what i am living for (plus few other things) I found impossible to care about purpose of life when i am laughing my ass of. I tried but when you are laughing and have a time of your life with buds or girl or family, you just don't care about the fact in 100 years you won't be there anymore. You are in the moment, you are happy.... that's my way to go, my goal. Be in the moment, make myself and people around me, that i care about, laugh.
    1
  227. Mr. Note because it is.. life as a life is pointless, i completely agree on that part, but you can still find your purpose making it not fully pointless and making your life happy, which is basically ultimate goal. It's apstract way of thinking. On the scale of universe everything is pointless. On the scale of emotions, life has a purpose. Think of it this way. Think of the thing that gives you the most pleasure. For me it's comedy and football. So what is the point of playing football? The point is to feel satisfication, to feel that pleasure and when you hit that state it makes you life pointful. You just ended "circle of purpose". maybe completing those cricles is pointless, but at least you will die as a happy man. That's the thing with emotions, they are so strong that they make point themself. I always say "think big, live small" refering to that. Think about universe, religion, psychology, history, AI, whatever you find the most intriguing, but live so that small things make you happy. The situation we are in is not ideal, but why don't we get most out of the life we live in? You never know, science might actually catch up with us so that we become immortal.
    1
  228. sean barry no i don't. Believing in God because it is just weak, you are weakling. Just deal with it !!! I am gone die, you are going to die, who cares, it's not like we have a choice of not dying, then why stress about it? Life after our own death is not something we can comprehend so it's pointless to try to, isn't it? the fact we are going to die makes everything just a tad bit more precious, doesn't it? You know you are not going to live forever, so why would you wanna waste the time you have left?
    1
  229. sean barry okay so it's pointless.. so now you can either bitch about the life being pointless till you die or you can simply experience and enjoy whatever is coming in your life and not worry about your death because it's not going to influence your life whatsoever. You have a lot to think about. Think about how you can contribute to humanity via things you truely love to do. It won't make your life pointful, but it will make it fullfilled and happy.

  231. what is the point/goal in football? Only goal in football is to win thropy which is set by human. Does lack of natural purpose of football makes football any less entertaining to you? No, you still love every bit of it. The same works for life in general, you set the goals and live happily ever after. You shouldn't be concerned about pointless of life on individual basis. ... About contribution to humanity: The first of all we don't know what could and what will happen. Maybe we become immortal, there are literally no limits in life, everything is possible, we don't even know what's possible. Only way to find out is by keep improving science. if you are not a genius yourself who can directly influence our improvment, at least be inspiration. They are countless of ways to do that (from being a great teacher, to being a good person in general) For me, being inspiration for others is one of the most important things in my life and definitely the best way for me to contribute to humanity in general. Don't ever understimate power of inspiration, everybody has to be inspired by someone even the greatest scientists of all time,.. read long time ago that Tesla got some idea on the river by observing some random guy.. That random guy is not even aware of his influence he had on human histoyr. Isn't it inspiring that YOU, a single person who is part of something so huge (part of species that tries to survive in infinte universe) can actually easily change the course of human history? Especially now, in era of internet, now easier then ever Live happy life on individual scale, inspire people on the scale of humanity. You are part of something huge and very rare in universe. What more can you ask for?

  248. "but why do we as society then censor and hide so many ideas?" Money,... media feeds of human biases. Only bad thing about being too open minded is that it can be overwhelming for your intellect so you literally go insane. We need enough structure so that we know how to act in the world; to remain sane.. that's basically it, other than that: open > closed minded, every day of the week because you are open to the greater truth, which means you learn more and knowledge = power.. Tesla's old age is what happens if you are too open minded. There are many more examples like that among scientists and artists.

  249. +mouwersor If you don't have a strong habit (there is word for that i forgot how it's called) of playing around with your hair then it's flirting 100% of times. Believe me. that doesn't mean a girl wanna sleep with a guy or that she even likes him, but from whatever reason, she decided to flirt with him at that moment. As a girl, you manifest that as a great urgency to play around with your hair at that moment, but what is actually happening is that your subconcious mind is telling you to flirt with him. What i have learned from my experience is that it's impossible to explain to a girl her subconcious behavior and reasons why she does what she does (there are some exceptions ofc). I had a discussion in some video while ago with girl about women eyebrows. In video it was said that women draw their eyebrows really high and in that characteristic oval shape to project that femine feeling from some historical reason i forgot, but she insisted that she doesn't draw such eyebrows to project that feeling, but because she likes it that way. It was impossible to explain to her that she likes that particular shape because her subconcious is telling her to like it because of that historical reason... Most women experience everything through subjective concious mind and explaining something to her is impossible.

It's actually opposite example from what you are trying to say So i guess because our mind says that is wrong, we should actually do it because we have control over our instincts. just because it feels wrong doesn't mean it's wrong. So i guess we have to go in killing spree. That's what you are saying actually.... give me an example in universe that make sense like that.

  266. So many stupid things have been said in this post. Saying that inteligence doesn't matter on some moral scale (..that way you avoid real individual differences..), but then in very next sentence say that what actually matters is being hardworking, polite, caring, is stupid beyond belief. Just like there are differences in inteligence there are differences in personalities and all of those traits that people (who don't like idea of differences in inteligence) talk about. Some people don't like to work hard and they are just as morally right as person who has a low IQ. I am tired of "stupid" people getting away with being stupid because "they didn't choose to be stupid", but then being judged by lack of politness, work ethics or anything similar. I am just as much of a prisoner of my personality traits as a stupid person with low IQ. And yes, this is my disagreeableness talking. Famously Kobe Bryant said that he hates everyone who doesn't work hard towards their goal. That's such a notoriously stupid statement. It's literally the same as saying i hate everyone with IQ lower than 90...

The thing is, if you are already brainwashwed to believe in religion, how much do you think it takes to convert you into terorist? not much at all... Those terorists haven't been borned as terorists, they were just as you, normal believer who was brainwashed again into thinking terorism is right. If you were so easy to brainwashed once why do you think you can't be brainwashed again... Politicians brainwashe people on daily basis. All believers are potential terorists. BOTTOM LINE

  279. Usman Mir the fear of death drives us not to explore the universe and basically nature to its fullest because we are afraid by doing it that we will expose the "meaningless" of life. Tell me one scientist who is an extreme believer, very rare case if any... The only type of scientist who believe in such thing as after death life are mostly somewhere between believing and not believing. (Agnosticism). Religion drastically slows us down when it comes to exploring the world. (assuming that anyone who thinks there is a life after death is some type of religionist, which is good assumption)

  283. For me he is... i am so into psychology and everything that has to do with how people behave, and the way Heath Ledger played out that role of psychopath/sociopath is absolutely amazing and quite realistic imo. Not only that, i connect with Heath's Joker on a deeper level because the fact he is so likeable as a character, while being absolutely fucked up in his head, makes you think hard about life. It makes you feel like that could be you doing it and it really could. It's a very fine line between someone like Stephen Paddock and you or me or someone else. People don't realize that at all, but it's true... Stephen was not some disfunctional human being that somehow worked in different way. He is the same human being we are. He had the same ancestors. He had the same amount of muscles in his body. His brain worked in the same way our does, the same biases, the same mechanism of perceving the world,.... we share everything except the history. And it's not like he choosed his history of suffering. He was just given that. It sort of means that you don't control who you are going to become.. it gets so deep. To think about the fact that i could have been Stephen Paddock, Joker or someone else if my life played out slightly different is mind blowing. Heath Ledger's Joker makes you think of that. That's why he is the single greatest villain of all time. He transcends beyond being just a fictional character.

  287. That's not the fundamental level you are talking about. You can't educate yourself if you have to work 12 hours a day to save you butt from starvation. Try to empathize or at leas sympathize with people who don't have enough money for fundamental needs (you probably have since you didn't even consider that before writing down the comment). You don't even have to go that far. There are many people who eat the cheapest possible, unhealthy junk food every day because they can't afford anything better, they have terrible place to sleep on, and all those things, which would, even if they got proper education, restrict them from learning effectively out of it. The most important thing is to make healthy lifestyle possible for anyone regardless of who they are by minimal basic income, then build on it by education. That way inteligent people will get an opportunity to reach their potential, and the less inteligent people would probably get stuck at the first stage, but there is nothing that can be done about that problem. So first we have to deal with biological and physiological needs of every individual and then build upon it through education because education before meeting those fundamental needs is pointless and ineffective. No matter how smart you are, if you go 2 days without water you are not going to learn anything from the world class education.

  291. ​ @KabzieMusic  Things and objects are nor good nor bad, it's what human behaviour makes of them. Patterns of human behaviour are there, inside our psyche whether there are external things that allow it to manifest or not. An axe killer is an axe killer even if he doesnt have an axe around him. The solution in that case would be not to hide all axes, but to change the behaviour of the particular human being. The solution is not to not have social medias at all, but to change behaviour that makes people depressed. Just like in the case of the axe killer, behaviour is there whether there are social medias or not. All that social medias did was amplifying deeply flawed human instinct to the point it became obvious to everyone,.. and that's awesome, because now we have a deep insight into human psyche that we wouldnt have otherwise. Knowing it, we can adapt and change our lifestyle so we live a better life with less suffering.. how is that not the best thing that could have ever happened? People who are suffering are people with a wrong, loser, weak mindset that would suffer regardless of the existence of social medias because, again, an object is never an issue, it's human's behaviour. If there were no social medias, they would have found something else to ruin their life with. It's their own responsibility to take care of their lifes. That might be cruel of me to say, but nature is cruel. The evolution (the truth) doesnt care about your feelings. You either have what it takes to survive (thrive) or you dont. It's a natural selection. It's been like that for a looong time. If you are suffering, it's time for YOU to take on a responsibility and change your mindset, not blame others for you addictions. Nobody else can help you if you dont help yourself. If you dont help yourself, you will continue suffering. That's the evolutionary deal. So, in conclusion, i am extremely grateful for social medias because, now, i know more about what it takes to live a good life and i dont have to suffer as stupidly.

  292. AR will have a faster impact, obviously.. VR has to deal with way tougher challenges at first, but eventually it will have an important role in society, mostly entertainment and education, while i see AR being used by everyone everywhere, literally

  293. My prediction, that i havent seen anyone saying so far, but is pretty inevitable imo, is that sports (current and yet-to-be-created ones) and competitions, of any sort, will become something we all just do all the time. The dude from above said there will be no jobs and that that will leave people with nothing to do, leading to depression, which is true, but solution is not that difficult. You dont have to earn money to feel like your time spent on an activity is worthwhile (they are countless of retired people who feel great doing one of their hobbies daily), you just need to be engaged in something, anything and that's where sports and various competitions come into story. When you think of football, for example, it's pretty ridiculous to think about what footballers actually do, strategically kicking ball to score a goal. The sport is completely arbitrary with no greater purpose other than to entertain and yet millions of people find purpose in everyday training, dedicating their entire lifes to the arbitrary goal of becoming the best version of a football player as they can. Even after they've earned enough money for 10 lifes, they retire and become football managers for next 20 years. People can get occupied pretty easily so what will happen is that many new, arbitrary activities will be created in which people will find their peace. Now, i am not saying that is everything to it, but you roughly get an idea of what people will be doing, after all, we are just bunch of hormones raising and dropping its levels, we are not that tough to fool. Ensure stimulation of dopamine, oxytocin and few others, and will be fine.. how hard can it be?

  294. you are ignoring really important part about it.. people are biased. Towards end of Einstein life, he was so cought up with thought that quantum mechanics can't be right, and that God does not play dice with the universe that he was not as useful as he used to be. You need a fresh mind for innovations, a look from different perspective. We are not good at getting rid of biases and beliefs we formed. That stops us, at least great thinkers, from continuously making an impact.

  295. Most of you are too optimistic. It's surely around 2050 if not a decade later with this rate of progress. Cars are not something you buy every 5 years, you drive a single car for decades and as of now, i believe, non-electric cars are still overwhelmingly sold compared to electric. First we need to reach the point where electric cars are the majority on the market (surely 5+ years) and from that point on you count 20-30 years for them to become majority on streets, as people slowly replacie their non-electric cars bought between 2010-2025,... 20-30 years, unless manfucaturing electric cars becomes so much easier than non-electric cars (electric cars become much cheaper), which i dont see a reason why would it, and/or government gets involved because of global warming.

  300. Nonsense, don't listen to that. What you have to do is: 1. Think about having perfect life, but really think about it. If you could have anything you want in your life what would you have? If you could have perfect relationships with your wife, childrens, friends, family, what would they be like? If you could have perfect career, what would it be like?, etc. That's your ultimate goal. The thing is that you are imperfect so you will never quite reach that goal, but the progress you make towards it will make you happy in general 2. Plan step by step (goal by goal) how would you attain such life. The smaller milestones, the better. Reaching those goals will make you happy and since they are small it will happen constantly. 3. That's it So the formula is.. Dream as big as you can, plan as detailed as you can.

  302. There is no fee will because our decisions are determined by immensely complicated chain reactions, but there is also no destiny because there is a random element to quantum mechanics. It's theoretically impossible to collect all the data and add them up, because every single moment universe is "spitting out" a new, completely random information in forms of velocity and placement of electrons, etc. The amount of information in the universe is increasing so no destiny, sorry.

  303. what people fail to realize that we are driven by different things (hormones), not just by pure inteligence. AI can get more inteligent than us, but it won't have need to do anything if it's not programed to do. AI becomes dangerous only when it is in wrong hands, inteligence itself is not a threat to our existence.

  304. Definitely reach out and leave as much marks of our existence in universe. Absolutely thrilled that possibly billions years after our extinction, Tesla car will still be out there somewhere... put it this way, how thrilled would you be to hear that we recieved bunch of signals and/or have spotted objects that belong some ancient alien civilazations. Its just amazing to think we can make such mark in universe. For those who are afraid of such thing backfiring, you have to understand that universe is huge and waves need time to get places, plus aliens would need time to respond in a way. By the time that all plays out, we are either extinct or superspecies having no reason to be afraid... so definite YES

  311. Somehow everyone thought that by goals i meant money, fame, etc. I meant goal as in pursuing things of higher values to you, like mastering skills youd like to attain, developing relationships with people you like, etc. Biologically, we know that brain, due to neuroplasticity, changes all the time, since your birth till you die, thats given.. now, you can change in infinitely many ways and that's not good. For a sane life, you HAVE TO one way or another, consciously or unconsciously, determine states of mind of higher value (based on your value systems) and transform into that. That's your goal. It is worth mentioning that the goal has to be idealistic so you can never actually reach it. Its not important whether you ever come close to the ideal, but you need direction in life and a goal of that kind provides you with one.
    1
  312.  @spinnetti  goals give you direction, that's their only function. If you keep achieving goals, they are not high enough by definition. Be idealistic and specific. An example of a great goal: Wanting to provide every single person a free access to the internet. Youll never achieve that, it's specific, it gives you something to work with, to do, to build your career on and so on. Now, you might not want to be a tech guy, so you find a goal that suits your interests. It might be a bit less noble like being a phenomenal spouse / parent. That will keep you engaged. Those are all goals. Whatever anyone might say, Alan Watts had goals. He wanted to be an excellent teacher, to share his wisdom, hence the video. That was his goal (it can be yours as well). He wasnt living in some bs "now moment", goalless,.. nobody sane lives without goals. The whole point of having a brain is to pursue things (look around in nature) so people should stop spreading the hate towards the word "goals". It's a fine word, essential actually
    1
  313. ​ Michael Primak  I am explaining how brain works. You, me or nobody can escape biology. You can't stop needing goals, just like you can't stop needing food or water in your life. And I've never said that anyone other than yourself can know what you want in your life, but not defining your goals/wants is a very dangerous path to walk on. We all need defined goals,.. whatever they might be.

  316. It seems to me as all that amplifying could lose its worth once amplifying becomes too common. We are perhapse in the sweatspot, so to speak, where certain individuals have more impact than ever before, but it looks to me that that could go back to normal standards due to potential overflood of information. For example, those terrorist attacks have had really big impact at the time when they weren't as common as they are now. At the moment, every few weeks something happens,. so we became sort of used to it, which directly makes their attacks less impactful. What i am trying to say is that if everyone has access to media, and that way countless of people, it makes the content you say less impactful since you are just one of many. Another analogy that i could make is the one Peterson already mentioned (if i understoof him correctly), .. printing machine, when it came, the very first books that were printed were highly influencial since there were only few. Over time there have been so many that amplifying effect lowered down. it seems to me like that's the future of social medias. We are at the begining of it when impact is the highets... but you know, you never know.

  326. I am more concerned because of the harm it does to an environment and the fact that is unsustainable in a long run than any of the moral things. It would be cool if unnecessary suffering was brought to minimum, but naah.. people are too empathetic, which is an awful thing to be. It goes deeper than what you think. You will gladly smack the shit out of a musquito if it landed on you, so killing, by itself, obviously is not an issue. There is something deeper going on. We can argue what but here are several facts to consider: Some mammals (majority, i would say), like cats, do not experience grief when their fucking youngling dies, none whatsoever! They just move on with their lifes like nothing happened. Cow would gladly kill you given the upperhand and decent enough motivation, and would experience no guilt or regret whatsoever, not to mention that no animal whatsoever is even close to the complexity of our experiences. You literally can't empathize with animals. The reason you dont care if you step on an ant, but you feel bad if you hit a dog is because dog is much more similar looking animal to human, so you think that you understand what is going through,.. no you dont, dont be an arrogant ass thinking you can play God deciding which animal is cool and which not cool to kill. You dont have that right. If there was an alien far more complex than chicken but it looked nothing like human, you would be okay killing it, i guarantee you that. The bottom line is that you are too empathetic about it, get over it
    1
  327. It's obviously an issue of boundaries, how do you know where to cross a line between, "yeah, it's okay to kill a snake", to, "chickens have rights"? What is the exact level of complexity animal needs to have to transcend killing by us? If you say "emotions", consider that every animal that moves, in any way, has, at least, a primitive emotional system. There is no black and white in nature, everything exists in a spectrum.. where do you cross a line in a spectrum? People are not thinking this through!!!

  328. It's very simple. You are a living being and as such you have developed a survival instinct (fact), but, more specifically, you are a human and humans evolved to survive in societies (turns out to be a phenomenal strategy. Btw, things like empathy are developed so you can be a part of society)... so, this is what we've got: A species that organizes themselves in groups (aka socities) for the greater chances of survival of the genes. What's morally good or bad is determined by whether it stabilizes or distabilizes societies we live in because that's what we are evolved to care about. No God, no Jesus involved, all it takes is a bit of perspective on evolution. If you believe that humans should act in a way evolution "designed" you to act (prioritizing survival of your species above all) then you must agree with the conclusion are derived above, and i see no reason why you wouldnt believe in that.
    1
  329. Funny thing is that i came up with it listening Jordan talking about setting goals.. You set a goal (survival of the species) and everything that moves you towards the goal is good (by the definition of the game) and what keeps you away from the goal is bad. That's morality and ethics you are looking for. The only thing you can argue here is whether our goal truely is survival of the species or something else, cuze goal determines what is good/bad. For me, learning about evolution, it's self evident that that's our goal.

  332. "You", your name, is just a label our brains give you in order to identify you as something. The reason it has to identify you as something is because that's how brain works the most efficiently, hence langauges.. so it's a social construct and not something that actually exist in universe. How much of you makes you depends on our consensus, which don't exist yet. General rule with labeling is that as long as you are a fairly similar thing from moment to moment, you remain you. You would stop being you if you underwent so drastic and rapid transformation you'd be unrecognizable and therefore unpredictable. How fast transformation has to be is, again, down to consesus.

  335. Dopamine is the biggest "ingredient" that super inteligence would miss. Somehow everybody thinks that once machines become far more inteligent than us, they will take over the world. No, they won't. They don't have dopamine, they don't have anything except inteligence. Inteligence itself is not threat at all. It needs motivation and various other things to do actions on it's own... why it seems that nobody talks about that is beyond my understanding.

  337. Inequality is inevitable so i propose rather than making people equal, we change people's perception of what constitutes fair, meaning people should be taught why inequality is inevitable in a fair society... well, problem with that is that some people are literally not inteligent enough to understand such concept, but they still have egos that can be hurt, which leads to rebellion, making this situation pretty messy. However, education is the key.

It's still not a strawman fallacy because he's never heard those arguments (in this video)..
