I don't know if you've ever played runescape but it has a very similar experience to the one you are describing. It's interesting you compare your time spent in a game to time spent productively outside the game. One of the t

Well - Maybe there was some light editing done. But to keep it so unpersonal is personally amazing to me if you thought no one was ever going to see it.

All your points are fair - If stoicism works for you than all the more power. The fundamental tenant of all philosophies is to live the best life possible. For me, this is where the true beauty in philosophies lies. Stocism doesn't wor

This is fair. My personal philosophy is to imitate success. Marcus was born to the purple so it makes sense to limit and find balance in the stoics before him. True stoics have this 'lack of free will' twinge to them, where bad th

No one talks about the fact that one of the biggest stoics, Marcus Aurelius was a terrible emperor the roman empire. He settled the goths inside roman land with a forced migration - which didn't turn out too well not too long later. Te

why not the city and state you live in? The questions did exist 2500 years ago; When someone decided to leave their 'home' country, they stopped caring about the things they could not longer control. They focused on the community

Why does US tax money coming back into the country and at what rate? Wouldn't you want to encourage money to be made elsewhere and brought back to the states for investment? or am i fundamentally misunderstanding economics?

The oil industry is not the only industry hurting right now, so although this is on a post about Exxon, The OP's point holds true.

This is complete nonsense and doesn't pass the face-value check. Why would all the tech companies hire thousands of engineers to fine tune an algorithmn that was proven to be worse?

Okay - I totally concede on all points. What would be the cutoff for 'contributing to society'. If you had a minimum wage job that you worked 20 hours a week earn you a vote?

HAHA this is why i love HN. Seems as though, given this wiki page that this has been an ongoing field of study for a while. Everyone seems to be dismissing this as out of pocket. I don't see why both action potentials, electromagnetic

Those two axioms would make a fantastic sci-fi novel. The second one isn't that interesting to me philosophically, but your first questions gives rise to so many questions about human nature, free will, etc. Also, it would give credenc

China has an insane amount of bitcoin and is what led to the huge spike in 2017. They are currently developing the digital Yuan and it will allow China to track every single transaction, making taxes completely transparent, fraud much hard

Spitting the plot of altered carbon doesn't make what you're saying true. Here on HN some tech luminaries get this bad rap that they are purposefully trying to bring the destruction of society and morals - I don't buy it. But

There's a story about a dragon that was posted on here on HN that deals with the issue of solving death and answers your question quite elegantly. Anyone else read that who can find the link? Found it: https://www.nickbostrom
