Health Anxiety Sucks
This is a personal story about having bad anxiety with my health. I explain how I think it started and what I have done to help calm myself down. Hope I don't sound like I am being too dramatic.

11:57 - What has helped me
(p.s) I realized after I finished the video that I did not mention if I believed it would ever go away for good or not. I think it will be a lifelong mental battle, but it may continue to happen infrequently.

America has a Gambling Problem
มุมมอง 2819 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Everyone has a vice. For a lot of people nowadays, that vice is sports betting. It has grown so much over the past couple of years. Recently, Draftkings released a test subscription service and to me, that is a step too far. So here is a 15 minute video of me talking about gambling and its problems.

Is College Still Useful?
มุมมอง 27วันที่ผ่านมา
It feels like college doesn’t offer the benefits it used to nowadays. It’s expensive, lots of cheating, and just outdated practices. That being said, I want to explore if it is still worth it or not. The short answer is probably, but the long answer is more complex. Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro / Backstory 2:16 - Main selling points 7:03 - Caveats / Closing thoughts Thanks for watching :)
Is AI Ruining College?
มุมมอง 20014 วันที่ผ่านมา
The future of AI is like exploring uncharted waters. No one really knows how to approach. Admittedly, I don't either. I ask questions regarding AI and its use. College is what I am currently pondering about, but these thoughts can apply to anything. I would love to hear in the comments if you have any ideas or solutions to our upcoming problems.

Is Nostalgia Ruining Your Life?
มุมมอง 2K14 วันที่ผ่านมา

Are Tests Still Worth It?

    First I just enjoyed listening to you talk while getting some work done, but when you mentioned your health anxiety I had to comment. I actually had that too, alongside 'accident' anxiety like on trains or cars. It wasn't crippling or anything but noticeable. I ended up going on anti-depressants due to uni stress which made those completely go away. I'm not advocating you go on meds or anything (I know theres some controversy about them recently) just saying it made my life a whole lot easier not thinking about getting a heart attack while asleep or if the train is gonna crash lol. Anyways good luck in your studies and congrats on moving out.

    It sucks that we can't go back in time so there's nothing we can do about it. I really wish that I can go back to the past to correct all the mistake I made growing up but unfortunately we can't and is so sad. But at least TH-cam will always be our time machine we can always look at those good commercial and relive and that's all we can do for now.

    After watching this video, nostalgia can ruined my life in my personal POV and makes me hate innovation and being close-minded to modern standards. I used to be that kind of guy who obsessed with old school stuff but as I grow up, I began to enjoy the recent stuff such as video games, films, and music, and I feel like I give them a chance instead of hating something before it comes out or haven't try it, its kinda childish and a joke, like that's an example of being a nostalgia freak, and I regretted being that type of person.

    • @mattsthoughts1

      I feel the same way sometimes regarding new technology, like I loathe things like apple car play or even to a certain extent AI. I can totally understand being obsessed with older things.

      Recent movies and videogames make very clear they're not only "not for you", but they don't want you in the audience. The best ones actually come out and say it! Then they blame you for their failure. But how could that be? They didn't want you!

    I believe I've found my beacon, but I recognise your story. I've got a sister who has these issues now, helping her is complicated... I hope you get fully better one day. Some Dutch TH-camr I watch for a long time now, advised once: 'Start some project. Start something that's truly yours. Create your own child to take care of.' That inspired me to lean how to program, and eventually I set up a project that I've worked on for years now. That's the beacon for me, aside from a regular office job. :) Thanks for making this video!

    Oh crazy I'm 25 now too, thanks for makin' that. Nostalgia is for sure another form of escape, familiarity and sentiment, tricking your body into putting you back in a "safer" time... you're right that it's a drug and struggles with direction/depression draws you to go with the quick easy (temporary) fixes and it will absolutely keep you stuck there.

    i remember as a teen and in my early 20's i was diving into exploring the subject of history and the times i haven't even lived in whenever - i was in apathy or depression, unhappy with something. however when i was a happy kid before that, i kinda enjoyed the present and looked forward the future in a bright light. now in new generation it's either trend for nostalgia or dystopia.

    I think that questioning the ability of schools to provide a good and sensible job of preparing students for the real world is a good idea. On the contrary I believe that high schools should challenge an arrangement of subjects for the students to figure out what they want to do in their future. I do agree with you on university/colleges having to take useless courses to fill a major requirement is dumb especially when a law major or a med major has to go through an extended amount of schooling that has nothing to do with their field. These fields make you take a filler undergraduates to get the chance to get into their respective graduate schools. Yes a student has to learn about basic writing and memorization but shouldn’t the high school provide that? It seems that the government and law makers have decided to fund these schools in a way that they get rewarded for attendees to pay as much as possible for the least amount of work. I think the problem resides in the necessity of having a degree to get a certain job. Since people need to have jobs these schools can market there prices way up. It’s like how insuline prices are super high but are still paid for because people with diabetes need it to survive. I would like to clarify that im Canadian so your education system might be different to mine but it still does not change the fact that all post secondary schools are a cash grab in most country’s because of the need of necessity (in other words we need school to live in our society).
