The Manipulated Man

This article is not designed to be a book review. I have not read the whole book as yet: “The Manipulated Man” by Esther Vilar. Of course, you never heard of her. Who cares! To learn less do not read Wikipedia. I have read several parts of the book and will complete it soon. This ...

I just received learned opinion from a group of high IQ doctors that using AI to summarise articles and present findings is “low effort”. This means that anybody who cannot or does use AI for such purposes, is a “high effort” person! Some people may to believe that low effort is simply laziness. However, low ...

Asylums

“Asylums: Essays on the Social Situation of Mental Patients and Other Inmates,” written by sociologist Erving Goffman and published in 1961, is a seminal work in the field of sociology and particularly in the study of social institutions and mental health care. The book offers a profound analysis of life in “total institutions,” particularly focusing ...

For those who want to spend their life understanding

The Analysis Tool (also called REPL) – is JavaScript code used by Claude.ai to perform the thermal calculations and generate the data. This was invoked using the repl command.

React Component – This is the visualization code Claude.ai created as an artifact using React and the Recharts library to display the temperature profiles. This was created with the identifier “temp-profile” and used the artifact type “application/vnd.ant.react”.

It now all makes perfect sense – right? 🤣😂
