desensitivity training

Select control surface. Increase load. Pain spikes, without structural damage, indicating hyperalgesia from detraining which must be retrained. Neurogenic hyperthermia follows : endocrine cascades occur across at least four axes, resulting in risen body temperature. Hold. Repeat. The process is incredibly simple to practice.

teenager management : by race

(forum question, and my thin slice)

"why are chinese parents strict, and malay parents more relaxed with teenagers?" 

It depends on target outcomes. The political environment is that poor Malays are coaxed by rich Malays into providing more voters as a matter of spiritual/racial responsibility.

In compliment with that, minority races don't depend on majority law for competitive advantage, so they aren't pumping sic breeder stats.

I think this point is often missed by the naive, and forgotten when people assume everyone knows it. It is quite a fundamental CONSTANT in our national experience, related to what I call kedukaan sebangsa Malaysia. 

what is rich?

( https://www.facebook.com/share/v/171xvrrQUP/ Johnny Harris has a great video on how centiMMaires spend vs centiMMMairs )

I love talking about this stuff because it's so completely irrelevant to ordinary people. My usual points are

1. if your kids think their goal in life is to make money, they're probable aiming too low unless they have THIS scope of the landscape

2. it's irrelevant to personal desire for material things, because at this level it is purely reasonable to diversify into owning a variety of material assets

3. all that said and done, you can still tell which of the cash rich are really just intellectual plebs based on which experiences they buy
