What's Up Steemit! Today I launch a blog that will document the Accumulated Knowledge of Another Autodidact, mainly me. I have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and spend most of my day learning via Auto-books, old fashioned books, podcasts, videos and people. My favorite topics are; in no particular order, Economics, Human Behavior, Trans-Humanism, Physics, Politics, Bio-Hacking, Self-improvement, Voluntaryism, The Free State Project, Liberty, Bitcoin, Astronomy, Futurism, Religion and much more. In this blog I'll lay out the knowledge I learned today with links and commentary.
Like most days at 5:00, I woke up with the aid of binaural beats. If you haven't used them you are missing out. They are a way to Bio-hack your brain and control the state your brain is in. For more info check out "What are binaural beats" below.

I listen to "90 Minute Sleep Cycle" 3 times in a row at night giving me 4.5 hours of high quality sleep. Followed by "Wake Up" to bring my brain out of its sleep state.
I listened to a myriad of things on AI (Artificial Inelegance) including an interesting discussion discussion called "Religion and Artificial Inelegance" Take a listen and tell me what you think of the Bishops assertion that machines will never be conscience. Believe it or not I agreed with him before hearing the interview and he talked me out of that belief. Until know I thought AI would come about by integrating man into machine until all that was left is the machine. But he brought up a good point. He said we will certainly be able to make machines that can mimic human conscientiousness but they won't be conscience. That got me thinking; According to Mimetic Theory conciseness is derived from mimicking those around us and those who come before us. So if a machine can mimic conscientiousness then aren't they conscience? What do you think?
I listen to a few more videos on Elon Musk's Neuralink. I'm excited for that!
I heard a great debate between Austrian economist Bob Murphy and Dylan Moore on MMT (Modern Monetary Theory). I have to go with Bob on this one. MMT is flawed in its reasoning. Take a listen and tell me what you think.

After that I listened to the wonderful Cole Robinson's daily YouTube video about the Snake Diet. If you haven't had the pleasure of watching Cole you're in for a treat. He is rude and crude but he gets results. I have been on the snake diet for some time now and have lost close to 100 pounds!!! Check out his video on how to start the snake diet if you're interested. Just a word of warning. He is definitely not work place or kid friendly.
Of course I listen to binaural beats while while listening to all these videos and podcasts. I have this great app that will play the beats without interfering with the audio book, podcast or videos.

In the news today we learned that the Austin TX bomber may have killed himself with a bomb!
I see The Rubin Report has uploaded part 1 of his discussion with Steven Pinker. I look forward to the whole interview. It should be good! I always wait for the whole interview so I haven't watched it.
It's 14:00 now so I'm going to take a 30 minute binaural beats power nap and then work on a secret project that will be a gift for my future wife.
