“Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell”

From what I remember, it is. I read it very long ago as a kid, and I found it quite funny. Sort of a parody of popular adventure novels at that time (1930s), making fun of the usual tropes. Lot of things inspired by the writer’s own extensive travels in Western Europe and North Africa. It’s probably avaiable for pennies or free now.

Ivan Gorchev, sailor on the freight ship ‘Rangoon’, was not yet twenty-one when he won the Nobel Prize in physics. To win a scientific award at such a romantically young age is unprecedented, though some people might consider the means by which it was achieved a flaw. For Ivan Gorchev won the Nobel Prize in physics in a card game, called macao, from a Professor Bertinus, on whom the honour had been bestowed in Stockholm by the King of Sweden a few days earlier. But those who are always finding fault don’t like to face facts, and the fact of the matter is that Ivan Gorchev did win the Nobel Prize at the age of twenty-one.

Wow, you are right. This is a way for them to pump the bubble and their stock price up even more.

Exactly. It’s all propaganda, but AI can still take our jobs, even if it doesn’t work. People need to stop jumping on the hype, and start resisting this bullshit.

You need to look at the positive: this way they make more profit for the megacorporations manufacturing and selling them.

Fully agree. I have a 65” LG OLED since 2019, was crazy expensive, but fully worth it.

I have a similar story with anxiety and I got mostly rid of it in steps, including therapy. I wish more people realized feeling constant worry about the world is not normal.

It’s not that the world is doing great, but that you or me worrying about it doesn’t have any benefit, so it’s unnecessary. We can’t control everything, so we should focus on what we can.

E.g. I live in the EU, so I didn’t vote for or against Trump. His crazyness does affect my life, but I literally cannot affect his behaviour in any way. So no need to obsess over it - I might roll my eyes over some headlines, but that’s it. I remember when I felt devastated in 2016 after he was first elected, and I felt paralyzed with fear and the lack of control I have. I’m so happy I’m not at that mental place anymore.

And again, I’m not gaslighting myself that the world is perfect. I’m accepting I can’t control everything, and focus my attention on the things I control in my life, and stop constant worrying on the million things I was anxious about. It’s very hatd to explain, took a lot of introspection and some therapy, but it’s possible. Therapist said I had general anxiety disorder (GAD) that I developed due to my mother’s constant negativeness and worrying. Now when I talk to her it’s so obvious, but I never realized it back then. Interesting how big an impact our childhood has on even those of us, who are lucky with regular middle-class upbringing.
