They think AI will be particularly devastating on knowledge-worker, white-collar jobs. Why pay an expert when you can find out for yourself from the web?
May be even get better answers from the AI expertise on the web than from a human with more limited knowledge.
Finland, another victim of the proxy war in Ukraine. They estimate there are 4000 pending bankruptcies in Finland. Why? The country’s economy, it turns out, was highly dependent on trade with Russia. All of that came to an end with the proxy war and the push to include Finland into NATO. All those Finish industries tied to that trade in any way are broke and going under. The general mood in Finland is now desperation.
The challenge I put to myself was to make a chocolate cake that was actually health-promoting. I use organic rolled oats instead of wheat four. I don’t add any sugar but sweeten with stevia, which has zero calories. The chocolate is from 100 percent pure cacao powder.
I’ve discovered that the chocolate taste is enhanced with blueberries. But what makes this chocolate cake really health promoting is the dandelion powder, which is full of minerals and vitamins but neutral in taste. Dandelion like kale is one of the most nutritious foods on the planet.
Another version of this is to replace the blueberries with cinnamon. Cinnamon and chocolate also enhance each other. I can also add crushed walnuts and/or add almond powder.
So these are chocolate cakes that have virtually no sugar but are very sweet, and are packed with vitamins, minerals, and good fats. One version is chocolate/blueberry, the other is chocolate/cinnamon.
Silence is an exploration.
People should really think about muscle loss as early as age 30 when serious muscle loss begins. You prevent it then by doing resistance training with weights, and eating adequate amounts of both protein and collagen. But most people are unaware that aerobic exercise isn’t enough to prevent muscle loss, so they don’t start the resistance training, if at all, until they are older and have already sustained serious sarcopenia. Don’t be that person.
If you have truly free press, which is so important to have, you are going to have serious fake news. Fakes news — that is, exaggerated claims that bear little resemblance to reality but play to the views of a particular audience — is what you can expect if the press is truly free, because through this mechanism, the reporter gains further support from the targeted audience that shares the bias the report is supporting.
So, ironically, although we may lament the fact that the press is peddling anything but truth with fake news, that there is substantial fake news is encouraging in that it proves the press is truly free.
You get the same kind of ironic twist with free speech. You see the unfortunate slogan that “Hate speech is not free speech.” Actually, the opposite is true. If you do permit hate speech, then that shows you truly have free speech. Any impingement of free speech means you don’t have it.
We all live in paradise, despite what we do with it.
I do a very different coffee these days. I’m very focused on polyphenols and their benefits. Turns out that organic coffee that is lightly roasted has the most polyphenols. Organic because it won’t have toxins that non organic coffee contains. The more the coffee is roasted, the less polyphenols it contains. Dark roasted coffee will have little. So I go with light roasted to maximize the polyphenols.
I add to the coffee a teaspoon of pure cacao. Pure cacao is extremely high in polyphenols as well, and this has the advantage of creating a mocha like taste to the coffee.
I also add a teaspoon of turmeric to reduce inflammation as well as a teaspoon of creatine, which improves the efficiency of your mitochondria. And finally I add some Ceylon cinnamon powder for taste.
To the best of my calculation, this mixture is less than 10 calories, a pittance (so little to no impact on intermittent fasting), but incredibly high in those magic polyphenols. Polyphenols are beneficial to your microbiome, but due to hormesis, they are a major boost to your longevity/health.
You have to realize that American society, with its complete freedom to do or say anything you want, leads to a kind of madness. The most conspicuous example of this is the woke press on the Left with all its virulence and exaggerated claims, turning young and impressionable men into madmen assassins.
But is that the true cost of total freedom? Perhaps it is.
