Things I do so my brain does not rot:
Read something new. Learn a skill I never tried before. Teach and explain concepts. Ask questions. Try, fail, and try again. Your brain needs exercise too, not just your body.

If you want your brain not to rot, you should learn about reversible computation. Most people have rotten brains. Humans are fucked up. Regards, -Joseph Van Name Ph.D.

The good news is that you probably get a little bit of nutrition from your word salads. Or maybe not. Regards, -Joseph Van Name Ph.D.

yea i can agree with this keeping your brain fit and healthy is just as important as doing this for you body. keeping the brain active learning new habits keeps the brain sharp and has massive benefit long term. things like puzzles and memory games keeps the brain active and engaged which give so many benefits long term.

Fasho gotta keep the mind active same way we train the body. Learning, failing, asking questions… that’s real growth for real. Keep leveling up.

The brain is literally made up of certain kinds of fats. So, eat fish and walnuts for more of the kinds of fat that the brain needs. In addition, search for brain nutrients on the Net... like choline. Niacin (vitamin B3) is a good brain stimulant. Look up Deprenyl.

Not a bad topic to talk about really, we(at least most people) are definitely moving towards a more brain lazy era, I mean we are currently in it already, but it can and will get a lot worse with time.
With automation of almost any job out there people are really giving their brain a good rest for most of the day as solving complexity is not an issue anymore, even before AI being a popular thing we were not doing great in that regard.
And as how your recommendations goes, those might help a bit but we are definitely not going back to the old times in that regard and you should expect some percentage of people to become dumber(at least in some aspects) specially as generations of people change, we can only hope we can reduce that percentage a bit by putting some (however small) restrictions on use of AI and automation for work.

Unfortunately, brain rot is viewed in the wrong way. The brain isn't the thing that provokes a response. Rather, it is the spirit that provokes a response, often using the brain, and which the brain acts on. Without the spirit, the brain just sits there in idle, like a car in neutral. Stimulating the spirit to start using the brain is something that must include curiosity and excitement in certain ways. And it is school training, especially in children, that attempts to quench this spiritual excitement. Kids are inherently active, made to run around and do things. School sits them down in a classroom for hours, attempting to teach them things that they can almost learn automatically. This sitting, while good training in some ways, actually breaks their spirit.

it’s hard nowadays because everything is so fast-paced and our brains get bored easily but it’s important to take the time to just relax and take things slow. just watering your plants can be a great way to avoid brain rot
