    Getting old, and liking it

    I am of the belief that as we get older, with more life experience, more specifically experience with people, in general, we become wise (knowledge + experience + mistakes). We are much quicker to recognize and weed out the "riff-raff" and put more focus upon the select few that make up our...

    So, this is my introduction

    I think this is individualized, but for myself, it was basically letting go of my ego and the need for people to like me. That took some time and some introspection to realize that perhaps I wasn't as important to other people as I thought I was, that people might not recognize nor appreciate...

    what is genius, how do we measure it?

    Perhaps a better question to ask is what are the common characteristics of genius-level intelligence? Certainly, we can point to some of our great scientific minds, but there is also music, art, and other topics. How quickly does one process information? How creative they are at solving...

    Algorhithms

    In healthcare, we deal with algorithms at work daily. All of our differential diagnoses, all of our clinical practices during respiratory and cardiac arrests...are all based upon these "decision and intervention trees". If this, then that. It is an "agreed upon" (not always) way to do things...

    Why Men Are Walking Away From Dating

    Agree that a good life partner is best, especially if there is love and intimacy. ...but I might disagree that family loves you because they "have to". There's a lot of families, my own included, where that might not be the case.

    Why Men Are Walking Away From Dating

    That's kind of where my eldest son is at. He's a professor at a large university, plus doing research for biotech companies, makes decent money, heterosexual, yet after his failed 1-year marriage to his high school sweetheart, who was cheating on him for months, he was pretty messed up...

    Disability Pride month UK

    Regarding the Disability Pride Month and the Equality Act and Autism Act...and whether or not it is a disability, is, as we all know, highly individualized. If I can use a karate analogy, some of us have a "white belt" in autism, others a "black belt" in autism, and a whole bunch of people in...

    Pecking order & Leverage

    Now, you're bringing into question morality. I am of the mind, "all things in moderation". We absolutely do need to be competitive with others...at some level. However, when greed is taken to extremes, it becomes more a question of "should" extreme excesses be allowed? THAT question opens up...

    Pecking order & Leverage

    Greed can be a powerful motivator...for some. I am thinking we all have, at least to some degree, greed. There can be a long list of situations that amplify this characteristic, but greed seems to be human condition. It seems to be a part of that "reward center", those dopamine hits. It...

    Hello and a question about dentistry

    You may want to consult with his physician and dentist to see if they can agree on something like an oral valium, or the like, to "take the edge off" the anxiety of the situation.
