A voice synthesizer singing the oldest surviving composition
The fact that a song someone created thousands of years ago in Greece ended up being sung by a Japanese voice synthesizer co-developed with a Spanish university is insane to me, how can this exist
What documentaries would you recommend to a baby leftist?
My gf has the correct political vibes so to speak, but no theoretical basis or knowledge of history. However, she is interested in watching documentaries on the subject, so which are the ones you found most valuable? Thanks in advance
With AI stuff in general I can't decide if I am excited about the ways it will enable individuals to create their own art that wouldn't otherwise or just enter doomer mode about how it will fuck shit up under captialism
When you talk about self-improvement you mean becoming more mature, secure etc? Because if so I agree with you and I have to do that work. Thanks for the chat offer, I might take you up on that someday
It’s pretty easy to be attracted to someone and just… keep it professional?
I guess it is. I am just not very used to interacting with women besides my gf, mother and sisters so I just don't want to mess up due to immaturity or something. I will just follow the reasonable rules of not getting close to other people I am attracted to, not doing drugs without my gf present etc
It's true that I am not secure, I get a lot of anxiety if I haven't seen her (not communicated) for some days, and I am a bit of an attention seeker. And that's something I have to resolve, but it also scares me because people with the same traits as me (maybe magnified) do cheat
think if you are having issues around self control and cheating, then maybe your girlfriend isn’t the one for you. Maybe it’s a sign that there is someone else
I never said I have cheated or even come close to. I have self control issues in other areas such as binge eating when stressed but that's it
Do you trust yourself to conduct yourself in an ethical manner if you did work there?
I do not. Not because I have actually done something bad, but I probably am a bit more impulsive than the average person due to ADHD, and I also have the anxious attatchment style in the context of the relationship, so I don't want to be in a situation where I could act out or something. Also I believe in avoiding temptation in contrast to resisting temptation, so it makes sense to me. Of course you can't always avoid having to interact with an attractive person, but it seems to me like it's another thing when you go into such a situation knowingly.
Would you work in a workplace in which someone you are attracted to also works if you were in a relationship?
I am in the interview process for a job in a research group and it is going well so far. The only issue is that I was attracted to the person that interviewed me and I am going to be working with if I get hired.
My girlfriend is the most important person in the world for me so I don't want to risk catching feelings for someone else, but I also need to find a job if I am to rent a place to finally live with her.
What would you do in my case? Would you stop the interview process and try to find a job elsewhere or would you go for it and trust that you would do the right thing?
This question might sound deranged to you, but I have the full autism/ADHD/OCD combo so I am very out of touch with how the average person thinks.
I will recommend you some albums:
Camel - Mirage, The Snow Goose
Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon, Animals, Wish You Were Here
ELP - Tarkus
Is introversion even a real thing? I am starting to believe its burnout from social masking and many of us are just autistic
Probably soyjak.party, an even worse hellsite
My bad
Watch Cronenberg's "The Fly", it's not jumpscare horror but more psychological and a very good film besides
Shits fucked, I am searching for a software engineer job and I stumbled upon a job listing that offered 50k USD a year. The job wasn't about actually coding, but about overseeing the training process of an AI that generates code. They will pay you more that x5 of what my teacher parents make in order to train your replacement, it makes me fucking mad
Socialist revolution in Greece
Is there any hope for a revolution? The country isn't as wealthy as other imperial core countries, but it seems to me that even if the KKE managed to garner enough support and revolted, we would probably get invaded by Turkey, and I imagine the inverse is also true. Is the only way out of this a concurrent revolution in both countries?
