I have heard of the Fear setting one. The others are new to me.

Tim Urban's site and newsletter are great. There are some real gems there.

> If someone gave you a perfect simulation of today’s world to play in and told you that it’s all fake with no actual consequences—with the only rules being that you can’t break the law or harm anyone, and you still have to make sure to support your and your family’s basic needs — what would you do?

I don’t know if this is still considered a “risk-free” situation given that I would still have people depending on me. That situation alone introduces a lot of risk.
