Do you have Aphantasia? What's your number?
HEALTHI have a question for those with aphantasia: can you visually recall a memory? And if yes, can you modify/add objects to it? For example, let's say you spent a lovely Sunday with your significant other. Can you recall it and change their clothes' color? Or picture them with a hat?- Madame Peccato

Do you have Aphantasia? What's your number?
HEALTHYes, there are levels to aphantasia. Here's a typical example of an apple seen by different minds. The average mind is around level 3. Reaching level 1 requires training. Our brain, with its energy-saving behavior, has no need to perfectly recall how an apple looks. It only stores enough...- Madame Peccato

HOT! CHATLeaving government shenanigans aside, I got started with convict conditioning this week. I'm starting from level 1 with every exercise, even though I know I could start higher for some of them. Shoulderstand squats are hard, lol.- Madame Peccato

HOT! CHATIf the US gov gave all of the money it spends(~6.55 trillions in 2020) to everyone...you can finish the sentence. Hell, my country's budget for 2021 is of about 575 billion Euros (650 billion USD). And we spend it every year. Elon Musk needed years to get to that level of wealth. And it's not...- Madame Peccato

HOT! CHATMillionaires demanding billionaires to pay their "fair share" never gets old. I'd ask why they don't mind their own business, but politician's jobs is to mind other people's business. Always looking for new ways to put their greasy hands into someone else's pockets.- Madame Peccato

Stop reading self-improvement books
MINDSETOh, you were talking about that specific category of self-help books. I think those are fine for starters. Someone who feels like his life has dictated everything about him. I've read one this year and it was pretty good (The courage to be disliked). I agree with you @FierceRacoon, consuming...- Madame Peccato

Stop reading self-improvement books
MINDSETI'm reading a self-help book right now. It's on a subject I'm interested in—visualization to improve performance. I'm skipping 70% of it because there is so much fluff in it. I don't need to read 4 different anecdotes for each technique. I'll read one to understand the technique's application...- Madame Peccato

HOT! CHATWindows 11 is rolling out starting today. I want to try it, but I'm afraid it'll be another telemetry nightmare much like 10.

Effective Business Writing: How to Write Clearly
Excellent guide. I'd add one thing: vary your sentences' length. Short sentences are cool. They are punchy. They create a sense of action. But they soon become boring. Vary your sentences' lengths to keep the reader interested. Great writing has a rhythm to it. It's not an endless Short...- Madame Peccato
