What exactly in human nature requires profit?

Are you doing heroin right now?

Same as Naval's definition.

People seem to like heroin as well. What is your point?

That you'd be an entirely different person in another time and place? That's pretty obvious to anyone that has traveled anywhere other than the place they were born.

That's a fact. If you were born somewhere else you would be an entirely different person. You'd be speaking a different language, you'd be involved in different social arrangements…

Read what I said instead of projecting what you think I said. I did not say anything about changing human nature.

This is a common confusion. My argument is with profits and not with human nature because human nature is malleable. People can change their eating habits, they can change their tr…

Exactly what a devout believer of the market ideology would say. The market is a social construction. If you can't imagine a different social arrangement then nothing will change a…

Recruiters have no way to affect any real change. Thank them for their time and then say you're not interested.

It's not a perfect analogy but yes, we are like bananas. We should expect all future viral outbreaks to have similar effects. The moment Omicron was detected in the UK I knew it ha…

Trello is free ( https://trello.com/ ). You can use a trello board to manage the process.

World is projected to have 10B people by 2050 (I think). There are plenty of people. He should be more worried about the famines in Afghanistan and Madagascar if he cares so much a…

This can all be done with GitHub repositories and signed commits. The workflow would be every "transaction" becomes a pull request that requires approval from several owners of the…

This isn't regular ignorance. At this point there is enough data on vaccines and death rates for any sane person to see that the vaccine is a net positive. What's going on with som…

Innovation hasn't slowed down. Individuals are just having fewer effective ideas. This is expected. The contemporary world is a complicated place so any kind of real innovation req…

Follow the science means gather data and see what works, it's not about philosophical differences about whether lockdowns are good or not from a philosophical perspective but wheth…

What exactly is the abstraction here? McLuhan is describing something very concrete that is not obvious to most people.

It's not going to end. It's going to evolve and it's going to continue killing people. We're stuck with it.

Ya, I'm willing to bet money this is going to happen. It's pretty much guaranteed at this point since there is evidence now that Omicron picked up DNA from the common cold. [1] 1: …

It sounds like you want variations of a patch instead of what GANs do with the synthesizer and the discriminator. You might be better served with some kind of evolutionary algorith…
