Peruvian here.

They always said that to me and my family. I think it's to get people to come to get help faster

Hi Kai and Molly! Make Me Smart junkie here

Questions for both:

  • What conservative media sources do you recommend?
  • Will there be any Make Me Smart merch soon? I'd wear it with pride!
  • Thanks to listening to you guys, I've been able to discern bot activity on places including this one, did you ever chat with Jonathan Haidt about any potential informed solutions for this? Would love to hear him on the show again
  • I play an instrument called Charango and wanna learn to cover the theme music. Could you share the name of the song? I had trouble finding it using my mobile
  • Thank you both so much for making me smarter <3

Kai:

  • Any books on philosophy that you have read and would recommend?
  • How do you feel about the show Rick and Morty and their touch on nihilism and existentialism? Is that something you find a particular interest in from a philosophical rather than economics perspective?

Molly:

  • You make me laugh so much on the show, keep the singing coming!
  • What do you think of the new interactivity between robotics and low-latency Telepresence?. Do you think AI could play a role in this space? I wear one of these on my forehead
  • Do you have a favorite robot?
  • What Bourbon do you recommend I buy next?

Bonus question:

I'm fixated on this article that reports that California is banning bots pretending to be human

Quote:

The measure bans automated accounts from pretending to be real people in order to "incentivize a purchase or sale of goods or services in a commercial transaction or to influence a vote in an election," effective July 1, 2019. Automated accounts will still be able to interact with users, but they will have to disclose that they are not, in fact, humans, according to NBC.

Is this even something that can be enforced? Would love to hear your thoughts

Lastly, Thanks again for everything you guys teach us. Cheers!

Edit: wording, typos, spelling

What type of complication?

Was it a gradual recovery or did you gain it all back after one procedure?

Did you know it was temporary?
