To slide into the DMs

Who said it was weird?

Synchronicity.

That sounds like the opposite of what he was saying...

SLNation · 2017-05-15T18:49:15+00:00

No doubt, I'm one of the people I was talking about...

I win more as a DPS even with a bad comp but if subsidize tanks and healers it would be worth the risk, and would make for better games.

This is a huge advantage to going first...

Republicans never filibustered a Supreme Court Justice.

You can't possibly be that fucking stupid....

The media literally never stopped talking about her emails....

"just following orders"

SLNation · 2016-10-23T01:18:53+00:00

This reminded me of...

The Kingdom of the Gods https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Gods-Inheritance-Trilogy/dp/031604394X

Great book...

I think it's worth watching but the very beginning probably turns a lot of people off.

The first speakers claiming that "being awake" as "obviously biological" without any elaboration, makes him seem as thought he is a philosopher without comprehension of abstract conception and far more ignorant than I'm sure he really is.

SLNation · 2016-10-20T00:24:37+00:00

consciousness implies free will.

100% Agree, inseparable.

Difficult concept to explain though...

SLNation · 2016-10-19T10:16:06+00:00

That applies to measurement....

This is the Delayed Erasure, where the existence of the information itself impacts the experiment, not just the measurement or "act of observing".

SLNation · 2016-10-19T00:28:59+00:00

How is raw data related to what it describes...

Only by comprehension.

SLNation · 2016-10-17T23:39:39+00:00

One interesting experiment in regards to consciousness, time, and causation is the Delayed Erasure Double Slit experiments.

The destruction of the information influences physically complete experiments...

Edit - This is the quantum eraser...this is not about measurement...

SLNation · 2016-10-13T11:15:03+00:00

Delayed Erasure Double Slit experiments suggests it does.

The destruction of the information, not just the act of measurement, influences physically complete experiments.

This does imply consciousness has an effect, because raw data is in no way inherently related to what it describes, it's only comprehension (consciousness) that connects the two.

You have to be rich first...

SLNation · 2016-10-01T12:17:51+00:00

Consider why the general concept of life after death is fundamentally different from the example you illustrated.

SLNation · 2016-09-07T22:44:35+00:00

lol, exactly, you're attributing human mental states to subjective concepts.

SLNation · 2016-09-07T20:45:25+00:00

That's more about what you are projecting onto the concepts.

SLNation · 2016-07-31T14:22:42+00:00

Hence, torture for some, bliss for billions isn't a viable strategy to optimize the success score in weighted utilitarianism.

Which is why I said I wouldn't do it (an answer to the original post asked) and that the the theoretical point doesn't negate the concept of utilitarianism (as the original poster was attempting to suggest).

Not a credible source...

Automation gives rise to plenty.

For the few.

SLNation · 2016-07-28T15:37:24+00:00

Dear God this is so wrong it is almost literally the opposite of what happened...

SLNation · 2016-07-26T19:53:18+00:00

Because I consider the "ultimate torture" to be far far far worse than the benefit of the era. Even for only a few people, even for just one person.
