2024.11.27 09:40 Artist-in-Residence- Negative reinforcement, GABA agonists and social media's effect on learning and the brain: Dr. Terry Sejnowski
Dr. Terry Sejnowski works in computational neuroscience to understand the brain. However, he also seems to purport a lot of theories in behavioural psychology.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etbfLTHD_VU
In this interesting episode, I thought some things were of note:
- Dr. Terry Sejnowski says that negative reinforcement is much more effective than positive reinforcement and only has to be utilised once to be effective (eg, shocking a rat if it makes the wrong decision) vs. positive reinforcement takes much longer. Hence he is saying that harsh punishment is a better method for learning than necessarily being supportive, nurturing and kind.
- Negative reinforcement, harsh punishment etc can be correlated to PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). PTSD has an effect on long-term memory and hence can be categorised a kind of learning method although r. Sejnowski also says that PTSD "can mess up a person for life". Dr. Huberman also added "one bad relationship can also make one completely re-evaluate relationships".
- Dr. Sejnowski said that Ambien, a GABA agonist drug, can double the spindles in your brain during sleep so that you can learn more from past experiences, however, it also causes memory loss from present experiences. Here, I want to mention Ambien is a GABA agonist drug that has a history of accelerating types of dementia, and also Parkinson's. Excessive GABA activity can inhibit dopamine producing neurons in the substantia nigra, causing memory loss and motor loss control.
- Dr. Huberman says everything has pros and cons and mentions that use of testosterone or hormones elevate energy but also accelerate ageing (which I've also been mentioning here for awhile š)
- Dr. Sejnowski also mentions the use of L-Dopa in catatonic patients and how it temporarily allowed them to speak. People with catatonia have low levels of dopamine which decrease brain activity. L-Dopa can work to temporarily restore dopamine levels but I'd like to mention that dopamine output is controlled by the substantia nigra and that L-dopa given to Parkinson's patients often temporarily reduces symptoms but causes the substantia nigra further long term atrophy.
- Dr. Huberman says he gets stressed out when looking at social media and prefers reading books or taking walks in nature. Dr. Sejnowski makes the speculation that it could be because he isn't from a generation that grew up with social media. However, I'd like to say that Dr. Sejnowski is most likely wrong because many young people also get stressed and develop anxiety due to social media and this is highly documented. The nature of social media which is dependent on positive and negative reinforcement (ie, receiving likes and shares, comments etc) is a highly stress elevating medium. Chronic use of social media has been associated with depression, anxiety and other behavourial and mental problems.
- Dr. Sejnowski says he never pays attention to his dreams nor remembers his dreams, Dr. Huberman thinks dreams may be a gateway to the subconscious. Dr. Huberman often has recurring dreams which Dr. Sejnowski says can be part of slow-wave sleep.
- Dr. Sejnowski is working on how the brain figures out intention and he uses the analogy of transformers (a type of neural network architecture that are used in artificial intelligence AI) to learn context and generate new data from sequential inputs. Dr. Sejnowski thinks the key is the basal ganglia. I'd like to note that the basal ganglia is involved in the brain's reward system, which can influence favouring actions with positive outcomes.
- What are your thoughts about punishment and negative conditioning in order to learn behaviour? PTSD which is the result of a stronger kind of negative conditioning, seems to be a type of behavioural learning and memory which is directly correlated to evolutionary survival. When we experience negative events, through its immediate deposition and retrieval into long-term memory, it teaches us not to repeat that action which almost led to death.
- Corporal punishment was used in school for many years, now banned in most nations. Obviously negative conditioning causes long-term psychological damage. How can positive reinforcement and use of reward systems be integrated into learning for maximum efficiency?
- Dr. Huberman mentions that "one bad relationship" can cause psychological damage and for one to re-evaluate relationships. How do cautionary tales teach us what not to do, or does the forbidden have an intriguing attraction?

2024.11.27 09:40 gara432100 Boredom making me suicidal
I I have many hobbies: writing, keeping a complex journal, drawing, painting, animating, filming and editing, playing video gamesāI have so much to do. Yet, Iām always bored. Everyoneās go-to advice is, āGet off social media, go outside, be creative.ā I can do all that and more. But Iām still so bored.
College hasnāt started yet, and when Iām not on vacation, Iām not as bored as usual. Still, I go out with friends a lot, and I have a boyfriend. But honestly, I have no words to fully express how bored and empty I feel. Iām on my meds, I donāt get high, and I go to therapy weekly.
Iāve thought about getting a job, but honestly, Iām pretty sure Iād feel just as boredāonly now I wouldnāt just be bored but also annoyed. Iāve been there before. Usually, I get so bored that I end up doing stupid, destructive things just to give myself something to fix and force myself to do something.
People often tell me to reflect on what type of stuff fulfills me, what activities make me lose track of time. And thereās many. Drawing and writing being the main ones. But honestly itās rare when Iām able to do it for over 10 hours. And thereās a lot of time on the day. It makes me feel suicidal, but in a different way. Not looking at it with so much desperation and sadness like I used to. But genuinely considering it, thinking that honestly thereās nothing else to do. Iām not in pain, Iām not sad. I just donāt feel human. To those whoāll recommend going to therapy, I already do, Iāve gone to many, I also have a psychiatrist. It seems like suicide is all there is. The other option is just waiting this out but I donāt really want to. Itās something lazy and weak to think, but Iām so bored and empty I donāt care. Iām just tired

2024.11.27 09:40 MegaCOVID19 Why would a controller not be able to pair with an iPhone via Bluetooth, pairing code, NFC tap, but successfully join via the desktop app?
I tired everything and stood on my head; I could not get the iOS app to connect on multiple devices and was successful on multiple controllers except this one. Only when I used the windows app on a laptop was I able to interface with it. Why?

2024.11.27 09:40 Kumaraman04 The cute girl from my class
I study in Mumbai's one of the best university, and there's one girl in my class. The very first month of the start of university, she saw me, and when one day she got a chance and the chair beside me was empty, she came and sat with me and asked me to explain what the teacher was explaining.
She also asked me to walk with her throughout the university, and then we went to drink coconut water.
When I was sleepy, but I didn't want to sleep during the class, she used to ask me to get some sleep beside her.
Also, on my birthday, she got a cake and called and again wished me during the evening. She notices every small thing: my haircut, my dressing sense, shoes, even my mobile.
During one lecture, she was exploring my mobile, and then the teacher found us discussing and threw us out. Takes my phone for using my Hotspot and camera and she's sweet as well.
What you guys think? Should I approach?

2024.11.27 09:40 greyduet Diner is fine and you guys are being lame (Rant + Guide)
I want to start by saying that I'm STRICTLY free to play, and have never spent money on this game. God bless the whales for bankrolling me. I just got Eitri and I have no earthly idea what the problem was supposed to be.
I blew through the diner way faster than I thought I would. I was busy all weekend travelling and thought I would have to work hard to catch up, but I ended up with a week to spare. It was basically three steps:
- Reach the max refill - anyone can do it, probably took 3ish sittings, just like when I was doing my dailies on Friday and Monday instead of normal ladder games.
- Escape Jell-o - literally just get lucky, Jell-o table sucks. Ignore the table below it, it's a trick. I reached this table this morning and admittedly hit empty a few times. It's tough but you can't lose forever.
- Play Pie - The pie table isn't really competitive at all and every real win brings you meaningfully closer to 15 mil. The first time I made it out of Jell-o, I closed the distance in a few games and that was that. If you want a reward past 15 mil idk what to tell you. Maybe those rewards are reserved for really distinguished players and we just aren't that? Who cares.
When I first downloaded snap a few months ago, I held off joining the sub as everyone seemed like a tryhard- what the hell happened, guys? Diner is a free mode with a new card as a reward, clear parameters, and an obvious strategy. Why are even experienced players moaning like they're being abused? Is someone making you play Diner? Do you need Eitri that bad?
I personally think people are getting frustrated at this mode because you can't just get the reward the lazy way (time or money). Dumping meaningless grind time doesn't do anything if you can't snap, or you'll just get cleared out and have to wait, and if you want to pay you're way to the top you better have the bank account to support that decision. Instead, the reward goes to players who have a modest amount of skill and strategy and can overcome a straighforward challenge. Since when did gamers resent a challenge?
This game arguably has problems, but Diner is an inoffensive and creative mode that offers f2p guys like me a neat card as a reward for some good wins. I couldn't imagine complaining about it.

I usually do brows, liner, mascara and lips but I want to switch it up. I'd love something that's simple and quick to do in the morning but still looks mature. Pls help me.

2024.11.27 09:40 Tazpinarthe1st Instant remission after smoking
Quick background My dad and his sister both have UC in different forms. One worse than the other. I was diagnosed about a year ago as mild UC.
My symptoms when diagnosed were; - Frequent toilet visits 20-30 a day. - Bloating - Calprotectin levels @ 6000+ (my consultant thought I had cancer) - but I never had blood in my stool.
During my colonoscopy, there was nothing visible despite my calprotectin levels being high. I was diagnosed based on the lab analysis of the biopsyās.
Smoking story
In may 2024 I went to watch a football match abroad and scheduled a trip Friday to Sunday. I was in the middle of a flare up. 15-20 times a day. Again, no blood. The plane journey was relatively comfortable but I had gone 4-5 times before getting on. None on the plane.
Landed, and it wasnāt too bad. Once before the taxi.
In the hotel it was bad. We are due to go out for dinner and I canāt stop going.
In desperation, Iām searching for a remedy, as I cannot be like this the next day in the stadium, the toilets there would be disgusting. At this stage, Iāll do anything to bring back to the level it was at the day before.
Iām with a cousin, who is a pharmacist and Iām considering asking him to go out and find me Imodium.
Randomly, I come across the paper in the picture.
So I ask my cousin to pass me a cigarette. I light 4 back to back.
The first one - nothing Second one - that worm feeling on my left hand side is settling. Third one - the worm has stopped but thereās something still not normal. Fourth one - all gone.
We get ready, no pain and urge. We walk 15 mins - still nothing I light another one. We get to the restaurant, I smoke all night. Not once did I feel the urge to go.
I smoke all weekend - my bowel movement is back to 1/2 normal stools a day.
I come back home. My Mrs hates the smell. I stop.
By Thursday the stool frequency is at 10-12 and increasing.
On the weekend I smoke again - back down to 1-2 a day.
I stop until the next Wednesday and itās coming back.
I start smoking/vaping on the the following Friday and Iāve been in remission since.
I know it seems untrue - but I now smoke 2-3 times a day.
Coincidentally, my dad who hasnāt smoke his whole life and who didnt believe me has started smoking once a day after I insisted.
He was in a small flair up - now in remission.
Coincidence, placebo or whatever it is - it has worked for me.
