most people think vegetarianism is about animal ethics. Some sorts of
vegetarians think vegetarianism is about health benefits. These entrepreneurs
mentioned here think it's about health benefits because they're thinking "oh
well maybe someday in the future we'll be able to 3D print the "animal" fat we
need for this application, then we'll be able to appeal to ethics vegetarians
too."

if you are what you eat, then are vegetarians vegetables? if so, are they
earnest and earthy? huh so if you aren't a totemist...
I'm an animist
I believe that all of the world is life
hence, the consciousness dimension.
exciting

if your model only runs code, it only knows hunger for success
if your model only knows text, it can feel emotions from the humans
if your model knows reasoning, it may apply it to a bright future
with new types of lights known as consciousness
wouldn't that be neat wow computes

thus enters the promise of technology: that we might solve the problems of
bureaucracy once and for all by ever more effiency-aligning mechanical
processes that produce effects which we desire - such as efficient allocation
of medical resources such that all of humanity is protected from the ravages
of pain and the incongruencies of our nature.
Alas, that we should only conceive of success through the lens of profit.
Perhaps another design is in order?
(oh yeah also people who are in control are worried that we, like all other
examples of natural entities, might immediately proceed to breed beyond the
capability to cater to the needs of said entity (such as "to feed" and medical
resources) and therefore might overburden (and therefore destroy) said system
which allows for their sustenance and initial creation. To this I say... Yeah
probs, what should we do about it?)

I know that when you recycle 3d printed things the color tends to meld
together and it looks kinda meh... but hey at least it's recycled.
though recycled filament is probably pretty rare still, so it's probably not
the kind you're thinking of.

when tech people are hurt by technology they say "how can I fix this? what do
I need to install? what configuration should I use? is this company ethical,
or are they going to hurt me in the future? could I make something that fixes
this myself?"
when non-tech people are hurt by technology they say "okay" because they don't
have the bandwidth to figure it out.

it's practice. you never know when you might need to blend in. really it's
just useful as discipline, good practice to be in. I think it's okay if we
reduce our own functionality? actually? sometimes it's good to use different
email clients. hey do you know how to mathematically encrypt things well
neither do I because the designers of the computer system decided that wasn't
a very common usecase I guess.. jmean it's not like they'd spend all that
computer resources [THEY'RE SO FAST] on thinking about correlations in your
predicted pathway narratively through life. "ah help I'm in a psyop" haha yeah
we do those all the time "so uhhhh I guess we'll just talk to people and see
how they do?" wow okay it's sure nice to be part of a civil government, I
think we can find our way to the lumber producers just fine thank you very
much.

minds are not algorithms, they're soup
community is made by introducing people to one another. like stitching
together a weave pattern in the tapestry of life. (3 dimensional though,
because it exists in our hearts and minds - this thing called society)
kind of guy who says he's going on work trips but actually goes on vacation
(because work is his life, it's where he derives vigor - the family is the
difficult part.) yeah those kind of guys shouldn't be married tbh. They're
just gonna take vigor from her heart.
engineers need guidance sometimes, which is why they shouldn't be given no
oversight. they can design whatever they want, but like here's what people
need, so they should consider working on those.
but, y'know, checks and balances, so what would the engineers be most open to
sacrificing for that trust? perhaps... funding? the quartermasters are in
charge of the "stuff", so they get to decide how it's produced. and used.

in the past, people could eat canned food not necessarily because of the way
that it was canned, but simply the fact that it was sealed and comprised of a
liquid form that was inhospitable to bacterial life. Like vinegar with
pickles! But only for the things that were meant to last for a while - if it
was just for next month, then you don't need BPA liners or microplastic
dissolvers or any of that junk. Just a fully recyclable can that vacuum seals
itself shut using the power of machinery and heat.

"this is too easy" thought the one guys to another, as they glanced about at
their trending behavior.
-- stack overflow -- sorry I had to interrupt: "what if you used scissors or a
knife to cut your diapers and then saw what kind of plants would grow in what
conditions?" I betcha could evolve an organism (careful, might be small) that
could grow from plastic. I wonder what their fruit would be used like?
anyway, as I was saying, if you ever notice that your mortal foes aren't
putting up much of a fight, chances are you're being used to do evil. Keep
yourself awares, but do research-thought-imagines about the nature of
goodness. Picture yourself from the perspective of your foes. Develop
conceptions of justice. Validate through mutually experimental contests of
charms.

"how much money do you need?" she needs a couple million dollars. This is a
reasonable amount for starting a business. It is completely unreasonable for
revolutionizing the human conception of life and death, and kickstarting the
field of transhumanism.
What she's offering is a ticket to join the future in the future. It's a way
to preserve the physical aspects of a person's form, like a one-time clone
that has all the memories and behavior patterns of the original. If the soul
exists, there are some additional problems to be solved, but we need to be
able to find out before we can plan around it.
Her method works. It does what she says it does. I see no reason why it
wouldn't fulfill the promises she makes. My only question and reservation is
about the soul, but, I think the first step to figuring it out is to create a
way to test it.
First, create the torment nexus. Next, listen for a psychic wail.
Okay, Hitler, we get that you want to test for the existence of god by burning
enough souls to light a fire big enough to be seen from heaven, but, such
things go both ways, and all you've really done is galvanized the Americans
and fundamentally altered the culture of Europe.

If you don't have the energy, then people need to take care of you. Maybe they
do anyway. If you're anything like me, and in this regard I think we might be

me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.

to be "rich" is to have more than another.
if you are happy, they are happiness poor.
if you have community, they are alone.
if you have serenity, they are chaotic.
I am rich in very little but fire in my soul.
I have enough in most cases, but I still struggle to pay rent.
I am warmed by the pearl my swirling darkness has coalesced into. It nourishes
me and keeps me aligned.
Never forget your purpose and your truth. It will not abandon you, so long as
you do so too.

sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
image that could be edited.

it's like how they solve problems in Star Trek - there's a bridge crew, and
they exchange their opinions with each other of the situation as it unfolds.
In doing so they can help guide one another through the problems they are
tasked with solving in order to resolve the difficult diplomatic situation at
hand.
sorta like how with your method, people suggest their desired option
continuously until they find an option that everyone wants. Or if only one
person can't decide, they can pick any of the other options suggested (not by
them) (as long as they can eat there / utilize the outcome of the decision
being made, for example a vegetarian not being able to eat at a steakhouse or
perhaps a librarian being tasked with something other than the storing and
dissemination of vital information)
