I changed radically from the time I started this blog, it's awesome to be able to evolve :)

What a big title. :D

Things that changed:

Moonie -> Christian -> Atheist (2011)

Mostly Vegan (2011)

Understood about The Zeitgeist Movement (2011)

Trans-humanism and Technological Singularity.

Lojban is interesting, but I don't know if it is worth my time. I learned the basics about a year ago and already forgot a lot. :P

Became more skeptical.

Tried psychedelics and I had a impossible to put it into words Ego Death, or probably a scientist would call it a Psychotic Break. Be careful!

I continue to enjoy spending time with people. Especially with girls. ;)

I became more geek. And I still love Linux. I now understand about privacy, security and cryptography. Prism-break.org is a great source. ;)

I would like to be a great Effective Altruist. There is many things happening, and I'm doing what I can.

I don't believe in the gender binary thing anymore.

I'm childfree. And I'm not sure about monogamy / polyamory / free love.

I believe Free and Open Source Software will dominate, and Free and Open Source Hardware will also create a new P2P world. (Open Source Ecology, Wikihouse, Hyperboria / Project Meshnet)

Post Scarcity and the Future of the World.

Capitalism vs Communism/Anarchism vs Something Else. Interesting discussions, and no one really knows what will happen while at the same time we are heading towards the Technological Singularity.

Will we create Utopia, or will we destroy ourselves?

There is so much more, but I wrote down the most important things that I could think. A lot of improvements compared to years ago. :)

Açaí isn't that of a big of a deal

While I was in USA, I heard much about açaí, that it was a great antioxidant.
But I was making some more researches in antioxidants, and I found out açaí isn't that of a big of a deal.

Here is the antioxidant fruits, from the most powerful antioxidant to the less:
acerola> mango> strawberry> grapes> açaí> guava> mulberry> graviola> passion fruit> cupuaçu> pineapple

I believe acerola ranked first because of vitamin C.

In another study, the results was:
pomegranate juice>red wine>Concord grape juice>blueberry juice>black cherry juice, açaí juice, cranberry juice>orange juice, iced tea beverages, apple juice.

Both sources I found from a quote in Wikipedia:
