What you're implying is meaningless to the ones that are dead. So maybe you can now realize why I wrote my response and it was directed towards anyone considering conceiving a chil…

You might find the following interesting: https://thereader.mitpress.mit.edu/choosing-children-ethical... I, for one, would never bring another life into this world and while so mu…

I believe the context for the advice is directed to whoever is capable of having children. So, economic gains are meaningless to them when they're dead in 100 years.

Do you have links to share for what you're claiming is now false? I haven't seen any conclusive evidence yet for what you're claiming.

It's completely unethical to have kids and like another commenter has said brings a great disadvantage economically. I would suggest to anyone to not follow your advice. edit: I wo…

Complete utter nonsense. Humans are as conscious as the hands on a clock moving from the gears that control them. Yes, there's no reason for anyone to believe the electrons making …

I don't really understand the ending. Turning the simulation off could in a way be the morally right decision. Depends on how you think about suffering in the simulation. Some will…

It's amusing to observe "Location-Based Pay" just pop into existence and for the only purpose of lowering the wage of whoever's hired. Programmers have been capable of working from…

I highly doubt any young person would think that way. Maybe older than 40 would.

Yah it could've been something else. :) I'm not getting treatment because life has never been great by being disfigured from the wrong puberty and while remembering the conversion …

Thanks. I felt lucky to read your responses to the person that's stuck on semantics or by whatever force(s) that make him assume he has choices when there's no choices. Majority of…

> I'm very sorry you went through what you went through. And how you deal with it personally, in your own life, is of course entirely your choice. But that very observation (see th…

The main reason for me of suggesting email is because I simply don't find writing responses on HackerNews as a great medium to have a conversation that likely will be lengthy. Basi…

Feel free to email me for further discussion. I have the impression you don't understand my definition of free will compared to your own definition. I will express here that the id…

The understanding of free will being an "illusion" opens a few doors for approaching life. One of them being how society is structured and regarding healthcare, housing, finances, …

Unsure why you're linking that. Do you not realize by my first comment that I'm describing the theory as nonsense compared to what I wrote? edit: ah thanks for the clarification.

Person with gender dysphoria here. I've still heard the phrase in Canada by nurses & staff. Also heard it several years ago when living in USA by doctors & staff. Unsure why you th…

René Descartes ruined the perception and healthcare of mental illness. Patients and even a few doctors would be more informed if they understood the symptoms of mental illness occu…

I think a lot help is needed towards the "poor" concerning the subject of justice. No matter where someone lives, there should be forms & guides on court websites for filing a laws…

> But are these life-endings [of a young person and an old person] equivalent? Perhaps, on a philosophical level, they are. On a practical level, however, the death of an 85-year-o…

Religion causes mental illness. So no, less church is a good thing. Affordable housing is the solution but sadly nobody has thought of a way to structure it into reality.

Ah yes, the mentality that anyone that doesn't fear what I fear must be mentally ill in some way.

Curious why you phrased Apple listening to their customers in such a negative way. Maybe from pessimism bias? I observe a lot of HN commenters don't vibe with how Apple controls & …

You could attempt contacting steam and ask if they know how many attempts have been made from different IP addresses in total for login to your account. I feel like that's really t…

The article mentions, nature versus nurture debate and that's complete nonsense. Any scientist should know by now, all forces factor into an equation for whatever outcome. So the p…
