Leo Gura

Titanic with blue cat people

Bro, have you been living under a rock?

Oddly enough, Titanic 2 does exist.

Yes. It feels like baby shark belly. Buttery smooth but a bit sandpapery.

I loved the first one. But I don't need 5 more. The first one was perfectly complete. I don't want to watch the same blue cats doing the same thing again, and again, and again, and again in water, in fire, in snow. I don't understand why Cameron thought that was a good idea. Do I want to see Titanic 2, Titanic 3, Titanic 4? No! One Titanic is a complete story. That's it. Next.

His standard for what is a cult is so stupid and unscientific. He would call any meeting of humans that disagrees with his ontology a cult. Which is absurd and false. If he had the openmindedness to watch my videos on Cult Psychology he might actually learn what a cult is and isn't. "Leo Gura is a cult leader" is not a scientific statement, backed with zero scientific experiment, and unfalsifiable. So, technically speaking, Dave is a pseudo-scientist by the criteria of science.

There as so many hypnosis courses available online.

I am sick of Avatar. The world does not need more Avatar. We get it, you can do insanely realistic blue cat-men. Let's move on. Don't overstay your welcome.

Yes

Dude, if you could travel back in time even one year you could be a billionaire investing in stocks. That is not something to regret.

Titles of nobility like: Sir, Lord, Count, Duke, princess, king, your Highness, your Honor, etc.

You should also note that Dave frequently deletes YT comments that disagree with him. He proudly admits to doing so. So even if someone presents a good argument against him he will just delete it. He literally created a scientism echochamber with his channel and is proud of it. By the way, Dave is not actually a scientist. He does no actual scientific experiments or discoveries. He is a mouthpiece for scientific beliefs.

It's a cool idea. If it is possible you would need to pioneer it/invent it. The point of invention is that you don't know how well it will work until you invent it.

Sigma life!

I love Dave as a posterboy for all the problems I teach about science. Without Dave people would be like: "Leo, you are painting a strawman of science." But thanks to Dave they cannot say that to me. Haha. Dave is the living proof that I am right. Lol

It's much worse than that. His debating is awful. He does so many personal attacks on his opponents, it is shameful. Serious scientists should be embarrassed to have Dave representing them. It makes science as a field look as dogmatic as religion. Dave is actually doing us a service by putting science's dogmatism out on display for all to see. Usually scientists are much more clever about masking their dogmatism in a veneer of propriety and decency. Dave just goes full materialist beast mode.

Well, yeah, consciousness work brings insane requisite variety, mental flexibility, creativity, and intuition. My learning process is so intuitive now that it cannot be formalized or rationally laid out. I just channel higher intelligence. Can this be turned into a formal training method? Not really. A decade of consciousness work is the training. And the beauty of it is that it works in any new domain, from music to math to chess to social to children to animals. It is truly General Intelligence. I could intellectually master most domains. The problem is that most domains are meaningless to master. What is the point in mastering math, for example? It's a big opportunity cost. And mastering domains requires such seriousness that it ceases to be enjoyable. So for hobbies, mastery is not ideal. Chess is much more fun as intermediate than as a grand-master. The only way to become a grand-master is to turn chess into a tedious grind. I love chess in a causal way. I love chess before it was computer-analyzed and memorized to death. Chess back in the 1800s. That was magical chess.

I feel that consciousness work has made me much better at learning chess. If I wanted to invest that time, I could get very good at it, but that isn't a good use of my time. The single most important thing you need for becoming masterful at chess is fooling yourself that this is a good use of your time. If you can do that, you're halfway to grandmaster

This is similar to Phil Hartman's death. Tragic.

I disagree that it is corruption. It is a perspective. A perspective should not be assumed to be total. Yes, his job is helping people get off medication. That is not wrong. There is a need for that. Whether this applies to you is an open question.

Yeah, it's not good for black.

Yes he can. E6 pawn can also be attacked by black rook.

Not really. If that pawn takes rook, then king takes other rook and the e6 pawn is lost. The bishop was keeping king from reaching e6 pawn. Eliminating it loses that pawn. So pawn cannot take rook. Instead white needs to move his rook away from king. But where will white move his rook? Not so obvious.

Take the bishop.

Good. A visionary is one who has a creative mind and sees strong visions of how things ought to be done, what things ought to be created. If a visionary is writing a novel, he has a strong sense of what kind of novel to write, what values it should embody, what themes it have. A visionary knows what is right, knows what he wants, sees a btter way to do things. A visionary says, "No, we must do things this way, not that way. Follow me, I know how to do this right."
