Trying to stop viruses with a mask is as stupid as trying to stop mosquitos with a fishing net.

When the facts don't fit the theory, the practitioner doubts the theory, the theorist doubts the facts, and the skeptical empiricist doubts both facts and theory. — PolitiTweet.org

ChatGPT uses most likely combinations of words, & confirms my idea of verbalism: the meaning changes according to wording, hence CONTRADICTION: "Taleb may be guilty of overreach by claiming that history is driven by rare events". vs Wars (& other hist.) are fat tailed https://t.co/AAe8792a2s — PolitiTweet.org

2/ The friend just tried a 90m walk on a hilly terrain w/30lbs weights in a backpack. Slightly > reg walk but 1) he could not raise the HR except when uphill, 2) the backback produced soreness because of the unevenness of the distribution. I guess he needs to try a vest, no? https://t.co/cowPDN9UfP — PolitiTweet.org

@hjluks It is hard to day dream and meditate while walking without slowing the pace. I can't walk in Z1 for long, if I don't pay attention I fall back into Z0. A vest solves some of that. — PolitiTweet.org

This friend of mine is asking if walking with a vest helps with Zone 2 training (More broadly Zones 1+ to 3-). And if so, which vest works best. @hjluks — PolitiTweet.org

ChatGTP missed the central concept of Skin In The Game: it is at its core an evolutionary filter. Those who cause disproportionate harm die by the sword; they are evicted from the system. Dangerous drivers tend to exit life, etc. ChatGPT also bungled the idea of the Black Swan. — PolitiTweet.org
