In a sudden temporary fever of ressentiment I marked the people of "high social value" like the doctors, the salarymen and the physically fit for termination, wherever possible. They've already proven they can monopolize a go

Having this conversation, and realizing why I was digging into the position I held inspired me to look up the most dangerous occupations in my available area, looking at the statistics and contrasting them to salary, other benefits, and h

This is cool. The environments at my workplace have some YAML's so big they cause the IDE to chug hard, so I think I might be able to find a real use case for this!

A synthesis of this mindset plus trying (without unrealistic expectations) to develop good habits as other sibling posts point out is well worth a try. The key phrase I've heard is "committed yet detached". There are some goo

I'm gonna zoom out here a little. I've been living a life that for decades has felt like slavery to what I confidently believe is an overly risk averse cultural mindset, applied to economic life. I see no safe path to a life I cou

According to other comments and articles, it looks like Notre Dame will remain Quasi Modo until about 2024.

If it were to happen 30 years ago, I can imagine: A) Satellaview/Sega Meganet/Telegenesis taking off worldwide to reduce trips outside to buy games for systems one already owns. 2) Early implementation of online multiplayer consol

Right now, we're not. I am firmly convinced that will eventually change. EDIT: I missed out on something. "Knowingly" is a strong word for this case. Nobody knew for 100% certain if an early American colonist was going to die

You didn't answer, so be it. On reconsideration I admit I was wrong and "soft" to use the word "right" - it's not their "right" because I don't actually think rights even really exist. It's

This is true on an important level, but also dangerous as sibling comments point out. There's no panacea for that tension, only the particular choices made and risks taken. Do you trust a particular "doctor", or will you take

Yes, and going to another planet is at least an order of magnitude more stark and perilous of a change. I don't feel that it's the risk I'm meant to take on, I've chosen other risks and challenges. But maybe it's s

Soft because I prefer not to go to space and deal with the hardships? Soft because I decide to allow other people to choose extinction instead of hoping to impose my own pro-natalism on them?

Many people do actively want to end their family lines, and they have a right to decide to do that. I don't know about colonizing other planets, but hey, it's also a choice to try to go do that. I was born on the earth, and I&#x27

It's not just Nancy Reagan, man... Every former president and first lady since JFK, they're all out to get us. They got that Annunaki blood, long flouride fangs, and woobly mind control waves.

That's interesting. I decided to look up to see if there were any theories on why that might be the case. It looks like results on this are inconclusive across the board and conflict of interest rears its ugly head yet again, but I fou

I definitely feel more like some kind of tech scribe, where we now count and tabulate up the "rules" of the accounting, rather than being the instrument of data entry and accounting.

If you continue this experiment, maybe they algorithms will catch on and the recommendations will be tailored to program a split personality into you, so instead of losing influence on one customer, both partisan sides of yourself will beco

I like both of them. I think yours is definitely more comprehensive and robust as a teaching tool, but there is something cool about watching the matrices overlay each other in a smooth transition.

I am not a flat earther. I think the strongest answer I can give for a directly, logically related possible beneficiary is those who espouse a worldview dominated by impersonal forces. They benefit from the earth being verifiably a globoid

I'm quite aware of the idea of a firmament and its symbolism, but that's a take on the flat earther community I have never heard of before...

It's a legitimate concern. It will inevitably lead to some amount of "museum-ification"... It's ultimately up to the restauranteer, they will have to decide for themselves if preserving a sense of reverence towards the

They'll delay the decline a bit but I think they'd need to see a surprising turnaround baby boom among converts on top of conversion rates in order to cancel it out? We'll have to see.

I've never heard of this book before! That's such a cool idea, to have the pages out of order.

I'm probably wrong about this but I think Flat-Earthers, if they became influential enough, should want to clandestinely (due to concern of dangerous guards patrolling the world border) colonize Antarctica (with resources provided by
