It's ironic that you mention TF2 as a good example as it is the very first example of the opposite in the linked article. Fortnite, besides having their own issues, also have the issue of "secondary whale-chasers" which is

I guess you have some solid data to support that statement? I unfortunately only have anecdotal evidence that 60h is not implausible. Me and my wife have two kids and share most of the household work, it's not an even split (she does m

Those are all consequences of people opting to use their free will maliciously. Not letting a child bully a sibling means imposing a limit on said first child's free will. In most societies that is considered a good thing so even if we

I don't think that free will means that God watches detached like a scientist. The first story you recount is about Job. My personal take about Job is that the story about God and the Devil is an explanation for why bad things happen t

"Free will" is the possibility I was thinking about. Basically that God has relinquished control over a lot of things so that we can have a true free will. That means that our actions must have irreversible consequences.

I definitely second this! Talking while walking with one other person lets you focus on the actual talking without distractions. Other people butting in and interrupting is no longer an issue. Things like eye-contact-management, what-to-d

So if you expect nothing, you'll either be infinitely happy or infinitely unhappy based on whether your perceived state is positive or negative?

Exactly! Write code that you find interesting and/or need for something and then share it. If someone uses your stuff, then great, if not, at least you've become a slightly better programmer! It's a win-win!
