Just my thoughts #0760

The foundation of intelligence is memory. Without memory, intelligence cannot develop or function properly. Creativity also relies on memory as a necessary prerequisite. Forgetting is also a phenomenon caused by memory. If there were no memory, there could be no forgetting. Without forgetting, memory capacity becomes overloaded, leading to various issues. From a memory perspective, forgetting is something to be grateful for. Essentially, intelligence is driven more by memory than by logic. The strength of memory shapes priorities and influences value formation. However, humans have eventually delegated memory to external tools outside of our consciousness, not our brains. These are called records. Examples include books and cell phones. Your cell phone is an extension of you. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0362

Adenosine is released when our body is tired, making us feel exhausted. Rest serves as a complementary action for fatigue rather than a mere exercise of will to “take a rest.” The caffeine in coffee prevents the sensation of fatigue by interfering with adenosine’s binding to neuronal receptors in the brain. It doesn’t eliminate the substance that causes fatigue; it simply disturbs the senses. Humans have negative elements, and while removing them is the fundamental solution, they often misunderstand the impact of caffeine on their senses as a remedy. Ultimately, without rest, a person can become overwhelmed. Problem-solving should begin with acknowledging reality, but if we view illusion as a solution, there will be no answers. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
