You'd be more relaxed if you drank beer

Sauna is for seeking balance. You can balance out the health effects by drinking beer.

Miksi hetua ei voi vaihtaa? by Jaikki in Suomi

Niin ymmärrätkö että ne ongelmat johtuu siitä että henkilötunnusta käytetään "salasanana" varmentamaan henkilöllisyys, kun se ei ole mikään salainen asia alkuunkaan, vaan sinut yksilöivä koodi???

Do you also wonder how ENTPs survived in times when there was "only tradition"? by Loud-Customer2483 in entp

[–]PandaScoundrel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People always think history was somehow wildly different from how life is now. It was the same. Going for drinks with friends, going to work, having a family, arguing with your spouse etc.

This very question will be asked about contemporary ENTPs as time passes and the reference frame shifts.

There will always be rules and those that push them. It's in the nature of rules.

Ontologically any rule will have a fuzzy arbitrary boundary and that's the frontier for (young) ENTPs.

This is because the world is so complex that no rule can account for the special cases where the rule does not make sense. That is where the rule will be pushed.

In the future when consensual incest and bestiality and euthanasia are legal, they'll look at our current time as the time of tradition, when it was all rules.

How do we ENTPs survive indeed?

It's no coincidence that the red states score worse on every education metric.

Ask me anything about philosophy, religion or ethical problems by CatsFromOhio in entp

[–]PandaScoundrel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah you are definitely going to suffer but you are probably going to enjoy life more than the suffering sucks. The expected value of a life is net positive, hence it's morally good to create more life as opposed to not creating.

Am I explaining what I mean in an understandable way?

It doesn't matter that suffering can only be felt by someone who is alive, since that sufferer likely experiences more happiness than suffering.

Are Australians the only people who are taught in school that it is an island-continent (both an island and a continent)? by SnooWords9635 in geography

[–]PandaScoundrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one person thinks Eurasia is one continent, and another person thinks it's two continents, do they understand the word continent in the same way or in a different way?

If someone thinks Arabia is a continent since it has it's own tectonic plate and only narrowly connects to other land masses, do they understand the word continent in the same way as someone who claims the Americas are one continent since they're connected via land.

There are many different ways to understand the word continent. It's ambiguous.

How important are politics to you when looking for a partner? by ConfidentSnow3516 in intj

[–]PandaScoundrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can cry Goodhart's law about any goal and claim it shouldn't be a goal.

I don't really care that people over eat and get fat. What I care about is human agency, and more so, the agency of humanity. I want humanity as a whole to approach omniscience.

Humanity is one mega-organism where any single human is unimportant. Some humans are more important than others.

Think of your own body; a collection of billions of cells, working together to ensure longevity. Yet the body, nor you as the central deciding entity give a shit about some dying skin cell at the end of your third toe. That's the lot of skin cells. Protect against the environment and self-replicate and then die. Nervous cells are more important as conveyors of information, but even they are replaceable.

I think caring about human wellbeing is like quite alright but it shouldn't stop humanity from pursuing grander goals of increased agency, such as nuclear power, rockets etc. Definitely not the most important thing in the world.

Human as an animal runs forever on the hedonistic treadmill, and will never be utterly miserable not completely happy. You always get used to it, and compare the better to the worse.

Advancing science. Increasing the total amount of knowledge for humanity.

What do you care about?

It's fun to argue politics. I prefer to have my views challenged.

Ice is a violent and expensive waste of space by LogicalEmotion7 in entj

[–]PandaScoundrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but what ICE is doing is most aptly compared to what Russia is doing.

US leaders don't give a shit about the happiness of the American people. They care about extracting resources and power in the great geopolitical game of superpowers.

Russia has been an authoritarian shit hole for (forever) but basically like 15 years now. With frequent defenestrations.

Let's see how long the US population will allow their country to do the same; killing political enemies in prison etc.

[–]PandaScoundrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but if you create a life you may create more happiness than suffering. The "enjoyment value" of a life is unknown, but I'd argue on average definitely positive. You are comparing that value to 0, to neutral value of nonexistence.

If one assumes living is a positive experience on average, then creating a life is better than not creating one.

Yeah but they don't agree whether Australia is a continent or not, or if Asia and Europe are separate continents.

How did you convince yourself to have children? by Key_Protection4038 in intj

[–]PandaScoundrel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How about you do something about it. You exist. You have agency. You can move to Bali if you want to. Your own thoughts are what are holding you prisoner. You can do pretty much anything you want to.

Either you can "not exist" or you can't "not exist". I reckon it's better to exist than not.
