The current debate about AI and unemployment asks whether things will end well if something cataclysmic changes — humanity loses its monopoly on intelligence and capital displaces labor — yet we change nothing about our worldview, our social contract, our public policies, or our conception of capitalism.

"Your mind is like a compiled program you've lost the source of. It works, but you don't know why." Nice.

How about the web as a communication platform? Check out awesometalk.com for video, for example. No need to install anything, besides a compatible browser, of course :)

I don't have enough time to read/watch/play at all the interesting stuff online, even if I were to restrict it to HN only... so how do I select wisely? Any hacks/tips/recommendations welcome.

Tried a few of the techniques you mentioned, as well as therapy, but I'll check out the other ones. Thanks.

Don't think I am a teeth clencher/grinder.

Tried. Three different doctors. No one had any clue.

Ask HN: How to relieve psychosomatic back tension?

dimfisch — Sat, 25 Jan 2014 16:12:31 +0000

For the past two years I've been regularly feeling a kind of deep tension in a very specific part of my back, namely on the left side of my upper back, very close to the spine, around the height of the middle of the shoulder blade.

I know precisely when and how it started, and it seems to come back without any physical strain or bad sleeping, and then it dissipates just as easily a few days later, at times a few weeks. So I'm convinced this tension is psychosomatic. Not exactly sure what activates it, but it often happens in periods of stress and anxiety. And sometimes it disappears when I travel to another city/country.

Any tips from the HN community on how to remove that tension? I'm thinking special stretching, breathing, joint cracking, or other exercises/techniques...

Berlin, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, London, ... Lots of cool places in Europe where startups are sprouting fast, and no visa needed for Italian citizens.

Curious whether meditation might induce a state where the brain also cleans itself, just like during sleep...
