Ask HN: Whould you replicate a protocol of landing a coin on the edge?

1 pointsby spacetimeuser512 months ago
If I develop an extensive protocol of training, which <i>may</i> lead someone to flip a coin and land it on the edge (instead of heads&#x2F;tails) with a bit higher than ~1&#x2F;6000 probability, would you try to replicate it?<p>The protocol includes a range from safe enough harnessing of GABA-A etc neurotransmission for brain-arm coordination to esoteric focusing techniques modified for this specific goal. (Of course I&#x27;d test this myself first)

No but I would read a sci-fi short story about someone who figured out how to land a coin on its edge, similar to <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;scp-wiki.wikidot.com&#x2F;angel-of-red-and-white" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;scp-wiki.wikidot.com&#x2F;angel-of-red-and-white</a>

If I was looking to expand human potential I&#x27;d be trying to develop a protocol to develop a psychogenic fever on command. Since it activates brown fat burning it might put Ozempic out of business if it wasn&#x27;t likely the side effects would be worse.
