"A gene that influences both the empathy people show towards others and their own responses to stress has been identified"

Here in USA, diagnosis is #Voodoo #Subjective and they do not do genetic tests for #HyperEmpathy

🍎 #Qualia explained – Can we scientifically investigate #subjective experiences? 🔬🤔

In this episode of #Zoomposium, we talk to #DanielDennett, one of the most influential #philosophers of the last century, about one of the most controversial #concepts in #consciousness research.

If childhood is half of subjective life, how should that change how we live?

The so-called #audiophile community is famous for the amount of #woo that passes for knowledge or expertise.

When you look at the DIY audio community - building things up from #electronic components or modules - you add in the cargo-cult processes used by people with no basic electronics knowledge building these things, and the false-but-confident beliefs of those with some knowledge but more assurance of their own intelligence 🙄 - and you get some real doozies in discussion threads [1] on audio/electronics fora.

I just came across one that will stick with me:

A: I saw some people are doing <X> to increase the bass from this little amp. Should I do it?

B (actually knowledgeable): Depends on the design. If it's lacking <Y>, it can help the subjective bass response of the amp.

C (overly confident): BS! OBJECTIVELY (!) you get more and better boom.
Boom-boom, you know? Your guts will tell you the objective truth.

... that is LITERALLY the definition of "subjective". 🤣

[1] A.K.A. arguments on the instalment plan.

Good, bad, right and wrong are subjective and relative to perspective.

Sometimes you don't have to pick a side on any topic. It doesn't always have to be us versus them.
