Well it took evolution 4 billion years of testing out random permutations that resulted in a pretty good local maximum, so there is hope for us yet.

- moffkalast 2y agoWould that make it more of a hear? Since obviously the guy can't watch.
- ben_w 2y agoI can't see the flagged comment, but I'm fairly sure @stefs is making a reference to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blind_Watchmaker https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blind_Watchmaker
- stefs 2y agoyes. the flagged comment wanted to sell moffkalast a bridge, w/o further explanation. i interpreted it as him saying that the human brain isn't governed by evolution and calling moffkalast naive.
- WanderPanda 2y ago„I‘m a pretty good local maximum“ that is what any local maximum would tell you if asked how it likes itself
- moffkalast 2y ago"The brain is the most important part of the body", the brain said.
- psychoslave 2y agoNote that not all brains are so severely damaged with this illusion. Most of them actually get pretty clearly that they are next to useless without its organic, social and environmental companions.
