Do you think if society was structured differently (i.e pre-adult education was actually deemed useful and allowed people to get job relevant skills) that age range would move down?

The idea that 21-25 are easily tricked by older people rings true but I’m also thinking there’s a lot of things about current society that infantilises those people, or rather, gets them to actually act immaturely and see themselves as immature

society tries to push people towards having kids later in life because society fully expects a societal downturn. subconscious dooming about the economy has gone on since at least 2008 and you can actually see diagrams like these:

you can see how it starts declining after 2008, probably because people understood that the financial world was not as stable as they had believed and hardships are incoming, and that causes people to have children later in life (which actually has been a historical pattern for centuries).

it took me a while to realize that lots of people try to destabilize the relationships of their neighbors in a subconscious attempt to advance themselves that way, because they’re removing competition from the game.

pretty sure it comes from latin “inter-lego” (collect or pick out information, like you would pick out the good fruit from a bush with good and bad fruit).

so it’s about filtering what you want to have from what you don’t want to have. i.e. a mathematical function f : X -> R which maps an object x to a real number to figure out how desirable that object is, i.e. assign value to it.

technically you don’t even need neural networks for it, sorting algorithms employ this kind of function all the time to sort objects according to some criteria.

yeah everyone knows this

to block all the politics communities should be an option at sign-up, or better yet, even when you browse without being signed in.

just block all “US politics” communities and downvote every single post that mentions trump (or the democratic alternative candidate) that appears outside of those comms.

bad idea IMO. i did this once, the device has to be permanently plugged in, which strains the battery. after a few weeks the battery inflated. that stuff can explode and set your house on fire.

better buy a raspberry pi. last time i checked they were $20 each.

cooking isn’t necessary for self-care, but preparing food is. not all food has to be heated to 100°C intermittently. just saying
