I think unpopular opinions from life experiences are what gravitates people to whatever categorization and or label is placed upon them. Btw, the only reason I feel the needs to share my thoughts is because I have an unpopular opinion mysel

Yours & my lifetime are limited. How many controversial topics can we recall that we lived through and where they became accepted overtime? What medium was used at the time and was it the popular communication method for the time. I&#x2

Your happy ending is subjective as mine in the end. I know if this happened to me, I would be dead because I have my AMD on file and everything can move on. Btw, what you wrote shouldn’t be against assistance in death but personally for you

Well the same can be thought about death.

Insane! Stories like this one make me question if it should be a requirement for every person to have on file his/her AMD for situations related to this outcome. People shouldn’t fear death or existence may be an extreme prison of tort

I eat one big meal per day, sometimes fasting once or two times a month and I definitely have a lower appetite with slim body aesthetics. I didn't crave food once my body adjusted to one daily meal for the timeframe of about a month pa

Pascal's wager (the original) has a flaw in it. One doesn't know and or can prove if God is evil. So I don't really know how else to respond to what you wrote.

Well, I'm proclaiming free will doesn't exist. Neuroscience exhibits supporting evidence that we don't have free will. There hasn't been anything exhibiting that we have free will. Your rhetoric that nothing matters coul

Free will is an illusion and simply it doesn't exist. You cannot make either a choice or decision that's truly your own. Simply, you cannot without being effected by the system you're in. People don't choose the life the

Well there is research that shows that we don't have free will. Nothing has shown we might have free will. Neither of us are free to think anything.

You're interpreting my definition of what makes the mind different than your own. I consider the mind to be free if independent from what encompasses it. Meaning the ability to choose how life plays out. That's not truly fitting o

I didn't, all the preceding events (external forces exerted upon me) made it so.

The mind could only be free if independent from what encompasses it. That’s simply impossible and even if our mind had some quantum physics thrown into the equation. Anyhow this all is a difficult subject unless understanding determinism an

Everything is just cause & effect. It’s impossible to make a choice or decision that’s truly one’s own. Nobody can make a choice or decision without being effected by what encompasses them and with all the external forces being inflicte

The best thing I came to realize in life is that free will is an illusion and simply it doesn’t exist. Thus, life has never been worth living because we’re simply forced like a victim sent to prison and whatever we experience is not really

Religion has nothing to do with the loneliness epidemic. All my young friends are burdened by inflation that has never been addressed by increasing wages to match it. People cannot see themselves saving for homes and specifically if they ha

Done, also thanks for writing your views. It's nice to read reasoning and more so from tech people because it's somewhat relatable being the same field as myself.

I have empathy for your situation if your dream was from the age of 12 to be in the tech career and only obtainable in USA. I had a dream that wasn't work-related and I wasn't able to obtain it. Yes, dreams are worth a lot and mak

Do you ever question your moral integrity? You’re in the US taking advantage of a society that doesn’t have good social systems and which is why the wage in the US is high for skilled work. Then whenever you get sick you’ll return to a soci

Can anyone clarify Jeff Hawkins usage of the word time? I'm wondering why he isn't using rate or frequency instead of time.
