For example, Fate/Zero episode 1 gives away one of the main plot points of Heaven's Feel. That's because you are supposed to know what happened to a certain character before watching Fate/Zero.

I know the new Fate anime is great, but please don't tell people who is interested in the franchise to start with Fate/Zero.

Fate/Zero is full of spoilers, it is written with people familiar with Fate/stay night in mind.

Thinking about how much time and energy I've sunk into job applications over the last few years and trying not have an existential crisis.

Or at least keep the crisis mild enough to work on the current job applications.

Screenshot of tweet from Huberman that reads: β€œThe other is that dog breeds w/different shaped heads are predictive of their demeanor and intelligence. And while I don’t! believe in Phrenology I now do pay some attention to how the shapes of peoples heads relates to their intellect and steadiness, or lack thereof.”

In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted β€œI’ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed. I’ll do the same with @CBSNews”. In Sept he posted this:

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as β€œthe adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear β€” war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

I'm firmly in the "LLMs don't think so don't describe them that way" camp, so I bristled at the idea of LLMs having metacognition. That said, there's good discussion in here about the problems that result from LLMs' overly confident responses and response style. #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky

If I haven’t updated my rΓ©sumΓ© on your site for years, it means your site sucks and I’m glad you’re about to delete my profile.

Please, delete my profile. Good riddance.

Training new clinicians in the age of behavioral treatment and managed care is very challenging and disheartening.

I very much enjoy supervising young clinicians. I appreciate their passion and enthusiasm. It is very difficult, though, because the way in which I practice often seems fundamentally

No, I didn't get an expensive 30+ hour online "training" slop on the subject, I thought my 10+ years of direct experience was enough. Shame on me.

I'm sorry my degree grade is not that good, I was struggling with severe anxiety, lack of community, practical problems, the maze-like bureaucracy of my uni and changing jobs every 2 to 6 months while studying.

Every psychology video on Youtube seems based on some self-helpslop like Atomic Habits or The Concise 48 Laws of Power and the content of these video is lackluster.
I don't understand why people think these books are in any way useful.

You're always deserving of love, not just from others, but also from yourself... NEVER forget that!
