I love having a brain

instead of being confused you can just see the magnificent complexity behind everything

it's so addicting and beautiful

Brain fully functioning and working on a interpreter, from the evening to the morning thinking about it. Best feeling there is. Wish I had a few more subjects like that. Learning C, also magical time.

Had a talk today that kind of fits here. I skip to the interesting part: I am not afraid of schizophrenia if my brain remains sharp. Because our brains are schizophrenic on normal mode. Think of all the biases we have. That's why we have to run ugly hacks to understand the world like checking for statistical relevance to avoid confirmation bias. Schizophrenia would only mean more checks on the state of the world.

Dementia on the other hand is truly terrifying.

Anyway, brains no good for reading reality. Require ugly hacks to error correct. Suboptimal tool. Just best we have.

@TrayKnots just don't let the machines tell you which reality you should believe in!

I love that you’re finally feeling better!
