Your Brain Is Broken

The Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon

Learn a new word and suddenly you see it everywhere. Your brain isn't finding more — it's just finally noticing what was always there.

You can only hold 4 things in working memory

Not 7, like the old myth. Recent research shows it's closer to 4. Your brain is constantly faking competence.

Déjà vu is a glitch in memory processing

Your brain occasionally writes to long-term memory before short-term, making the present feel like a memory. You're not psychic. You're lagging.

The Dunning-Kruger Effect

The less you know about something, the more confident you are. Experts doubt themselves. Beginners think they're pros. You've done this.

Your brain makes decisions 7 seconds before you're aware

Brain scans show neural activity for a choice up to 7 seconds before the person 'decides.' Free will might be an illusion.
