Can't tell you what it's like, that would spoil the surprise. Advice: take good care of your teeth and skin. Avoid impacts, broken bones or serious strain injury. Minor injury you receive when young will become more aches and pains as you age. Keep your back strong and straight. Lift with your legs. Wear hats and long sleeved shirts when your going to be in the sun for a long time. Treat your friendships and romances seriously, the embarrassments of your mistakes will be with you for a long time. Fill your memory with as many beautiful things as you can, it makes reminiscing more enjoyable. Don't talk so much!

noice!

Critical theory is a communicable memetic mental disorder.

Matt Ridley rendered his entire argument specious and kinda stupid years ago: https://youtu.be/0BM_p5fWoI0

A wonderful exercise in forced narrative. A pastiche of turgid ramblings and half-glimpsed reasoning. A tour-de-force of self congratulation and confirmation biased wrapped in the used-toilet-paper-sheet of ideological agenda. As emetics go I can not recommend it highly enough.

That was a terrible article. I didn't see even one concrete example of their complaint. Blaming the reproducibility crisis on machine learning methods is just a cheap dodge.

Now if only you could by bread with bitcoin.

they'd rather have 85 million from the EU than the 13 billion that England will no longer be obligated to give the EU? They need to spend the difference on math classes.

Hillarious that the writer cherry picked examples worse than any ML programmer ever would by accident or malign disinterest. If the writer had been forced (as they imply programmers should be) to include examples from South Korea (lots of good ML work going on there) or China (Baidu etc) the article would have fallen apart.

Ahhh yes, the compulsive need of the reasoning mind to neatly categories all events, circumstances and situations. I just love exploiting that.

a few points:

1) You don't know (for absolutely certain) that being dead will be better. Since it is an irreversible step the risk/payoff is terrible.

2) Death comes for us all eventually, why the hurry? Why go to any effort to accelerate what is unavoidable. See point 1.

3) There are millions of tiny spots of wonder and brightness all around you but you have to work a bit to see them. The tiny rainbow in a dewdrop is an entire world of magic and knowledge but can still be easy to overlook.

4) I totally know where you are coming from, it would be so easy to stop swimming and just go under. But that is not the nature of life. Life is struggle & pain, anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something. Embrace the pain.

5) It has helped me a lot to brainwash my self with a bunch of positive inputs. A Phineas and Ferb marathon really helped me a few weeks ago when I was recovering from a physical illness & had slipped into depression in the wake of a tooth infection. Set myself up a huge collection of upbeat songs with great lyrics on Spotify.

To quote Candace: "Time is what you make of it, so take a chance. Life is full of music, so you oughta dance."

I'd feel better about believing the content if information sources were supplied. I mean, anyone could just have made up any old graphs and produced such a video. Always source.
