Which LLM are you running on your macbook?

And while you say this, this thread is full of people claiming it is actually very simple. sigh

Feast your heart on this:

Sure, but even so you’re nudging people in a direction that may or may not be the right direction. Some justification for advice is in order, right? I don’t know, perhaps @figaro@lemdro.id is a social psychologist who has spent years researching this topic?

I don’t know. Some justification for your advice maybe? I know you intend well, but I am genuinely wondering how you know whether your advice is right and why you feel qualified to give advice.

Just one thing, you can say dating apps all suck, but I found my wife on a dating app, so maybe weave that into your story as well if possible :)

I couldn’t really find scientific research to back this claim up. Can you elaborate and back your claims up?

That seems like super generic advice. Why would you give it to anyone? Are you more qualified somehow than the people you give it to?

What how dare you suggest we kill sheep? Take my downvote you dirty liar! /s

Every HP printer I owned over the last two decades was a huge pile of crap. I hate printers now and will never buy one ever again. I go to the library to print.

Correlation is not causation my friend.

It’s one less excuse. Based on my understanding of probabilities, for most it won’t be the final straw.

I should be that easy to convince people that plants don’t feel pain 🤷‍♂️

Have you ever considered asking a question or are you only just interested in misrepresenting what I said?

My work is a hobby, so there’s that

We don’t need to be compatible for the point to stand

I don’t tend to think about the amount of work available nor the demand for the fruits of work to be fixed.

I agree with the issues you are raising.

Perhaps you are half joking or not, but I used to think like this in my younger years. I spent a heck of a lot of time in my 20s and 30s doing all the bucket list stuff. Bunch of sex, drugs, traveling, wild adventures, starting a company, etc. Having gone through that I can tell you that I am much happier now than I was when I thought all those bucket list items were going to make me happy. Sure, they felt good and some were amazing, but it wears off and before you know it you’re chasing the next thing again.

A while ago I came across a nice, although a somewhat simplistic, equation that said that happiness equals the number of things you have divided by the number of things you want. I find that wanting less is a much easier route to increase that metric than getting more. Easier said than done though, but I found that silent meditation retreats do the trick for me.

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think working till very late age is a bad thing. I don’t expect to be sitting on my ass whole day long by the time I get to retirement age. What I do think is a bad thing is if by that time I am financially struggling to get by.

Have a look at the seventh jhana. Maybe it’ll help.

Pro tip: whole food plant based diet.
