Hi friends,

How's everything going?
This is Kei and Kazuki, founders of Glasp 👋 

We hand-picked 3 good articles for you to highlight this week. Hope they'll help you get new ideas and perspectives. (You can read this online!)


📚 3 Good Articles for You

The Mind is a Computer
by Scott H. Young (5 mins)

  • Scott H Young compares the mind to a computer, based on the abstract concept of information processing.

  • The brain's complexity and interconnectedness differ significantly from conventional computers, leading to unique human cognition.

  • Objections around human emotions and consciousness are addressed by framing them within computational contexts and emphasizing the brain's unique architecture.

Against discipline
by Irina Dumitrescu (4 mins)

  • Engaging in enjoyable activities can be surprisingly difficult to initiate due to internal resistance.

  • "Discipline" as a solution might inadvertently turn these activities into obligations, leading to rebellion.

  • Embracing "play" could be a more effective way to overcome resistance and indulge in loved activities.

How developing mental immunity can protect us from bad ideas
by Dr. Hannah Rose (6 mins)

  • Mental immunity helps the mind detect and reject misinformation, analogous to the body's immune system targeting pathogens.

  • Enhancing mental immunity promotes critical thinking, aids in discerning false information, and encourages cognitive flexibility based on credible evidence.

  • Increase awareness of misinformation, cultivate evidence-based beliefs (meta-beliefs), and practice diverse and critical content consumption.
