You might be pointing towards the Openness To Experience dimension of personality. If that's what you're talking about, I'm sad to say it's pretty baked in, for the most part. It does change over age and sometimes with p

Sadly it is not. The bot's github page leads back to a real looking webpage. But then again that could be some top tier trolling. The page is completely bereft of any personality, names, or faces... so... For anyone that cares the argu

> build a product that I would like to use myself Yup, that's a first mistake, no? Shouldn't one build projects for others? It's a fine distinction, but getting that first customer is so important (or so I've heard).

A related but more fundamental existential question is "Can you stop of a loved one from self destructing." And, as sad as it is, I'm afraid the answer is a solid "No." on every level of analysis.

It should work for declaring melodies in any system of music that has notation. Now, you're correct if you're saying that not all music has melodies. Or that things like Indian ragas would be difficult to run through exhaustive pe

Ah, that's what you mean by "snoozing". Thanks for the clarification. It's obviously not tyrannical, just a little quirky. Still, it seems unnecessary to me and a little patronizing.

This is the correct answer. There is no individual "the world" as a cohesive unit like you can point to "a tree" or "a person". OP is repeating a fallacy of some sort, the name of which I cannot recall.
