experience

The absolute most hated word among today's youth, and with good reason. They invest years and ten thousands of cash in a college education in hopes to better their chances for a job, only to get told that none of that shit matters unless you have "experience", which you can only acquire through jobs. This is how they end up homeless or at least sheltered past 30.

Applicant: "Hello, I'm a graduate of a prestigious university with a doctorate's degree and I'd like to apply for the entry-level job you just posted"

Company: "We don't give a shit about your background, we won't consider you unless you have experience"

Applicant: "But I can't get experience unless I have a job"

Company: "I missed the part where that's my problem"

Experiment of one

I’ve become particularly impressed with AI and especially one called Poe (and its bot assistants). This is an edited definition* of one this AI-powered chatbot churned out in a matter of seconds:

An "experiment of one" refers to a type of experimental design where an individual serves as both the subject and the experimenter. In this type of experiment, the individual tests a hypothesis or investigates a research question by manipulating variables and observing the outcomes on themselves. It is a self-experimentation approach that allows individuals to gather data and draw conclusions based on their own experiences.

Examples of Experiment of One:
1. Personal Health and Lifestyle: An individual may conduct an experiment of one to test the effects of different diets, exercise routines, or sleep patterns on their own health and well-being.
2. Cognitive Performance: Someone might investigate the impact of various study techniques, memory strategies, or environmental factors on their own cognitive performance through an experiment of one.
3. Productivity and Time Management: An individual may experiment with different productivity techniques, work schedules, or task prioritization methods to optimize their own productivity and time management skills.

I can't do better than that, but I will add that this is sometimes abbreviated as "n=1" or "n of 1."

*Only edited for length — the original was too long for Urban Dictionary’s space parameters.

In an **experiment of one**, Dr. Kessler tested his willpower by buying two gooey chocolate chip cookies that he didn't plan to eat. (Source: "How the Food Makers Captured Our Brains." Tara Parker-Pope. New York Times.

An oft-used phrase is "Each of us is an **experiment of one**."
