As a former kid, yes, the openness and self-actionability of the game really made me connect with it & other players. Awesome game.

Feel like the sweeteners mess up my digestion. Are useful to get some protein after a workout - in everyday rather eat some almonds & less processed food..

The question is how much value. Sure, learning about entropy & unblocking students is huge value - producing clickbait content does way less so imo

I agree - it has no direct use to the wellbeing of humans - Id say if the indirect use (e.g. humans saving time [which itself is probably the most energy intensive thing, food, housing, entertainment], gaining knowledge has to surpass the c

Worked for deprioritizing biodiversity efforts for the sake of mass produced animal products, because, more processing steps => higher economic yield. Money talks.

Laws are made for things that exist. If new things appear, laws might need to be adapted - to be decided by the voters.

I dont get it. Every scientist & 5yo kid will prove you that things accelerate with 9.81 m/s^2 when falling, and guess this is still science? Which is a proof of cobtradiction that your point doesnt hold.

Since "state" means majority of people, id say is more of a question of what set of rules we want as society. Im also pro drug legalization but towards a different form of regulation there, minimizing harm created by drugs in tota

Just because it doesnt add up for you doesnt mean its not valid. Also, it is an illustrative example, not general rule for everyone affected. Im sure most users that get into fiscal problems get there with way less spent than 25k.

Maybe its time to regulate not on specific actions like "gambling machines" but brain-pathways caused by products. This would also instantly regulate e.g. "legal research chemicals" used as drugs just as some usage patte

But still - it unveils the "present" to just as well be an illusion of human categorical thinking, an abstract concept, not more. It is super useful to have none the less, just interesting to know its fragility.

Adhd & autism is not a disease but likely phenotypes of genetic diversity. Want to get rid of it? Its equal to eugenics and racism, getting rid of diversity.

The biggest issue people with adhd have (me included) is focus. Methylphenidate helps a lot with that as its mechanism is proven. It does however not change the "neurodivergent" thinking and processing. There still is a clear dist

There are alt-right theories that nutrition also impacts brain development such that global south people can not get as intelligent as white people. Where do you draw the line between your theory and that theory?
