Did you wear shoes at work? Do you wear shoes at home?

Game theoretically, seeking lose-lose as revenge is not rational. But credibly precomitting "burning your ships" to revenge is rational.

A gene for anger is a pre commitment.

Solar has a reverse economies of scale problem: the more we build, the bigger the fraction of power comes from solar, the more urgent the issue of storage becomes.

We should keep building until it becomes a problem, I suppose, but also hopefully prepare solutions before it hits.

If we take this satire more seriously then it's meant, which was the biggest mistake?

Lack of market research right? They should at the very least have done it post launch. Maybe more pre launch too?

I think many of the other ones might have been survivable?

Twitter and Google and Facebook often cut a person at the same time. So it's like backuping up your photos to another drive on the same computer. Better than nothing but not ideal.

When non experts talk about herd immunity they mean herd immunity given no to minimal precautions. This is a well defined concept.

That might be your problem. From what I heard it's a more sensitive role so they will take a stricter stance.

It is enough in the present, but I'm not sure that will be enough in the future. People have always been distrustful of faraway strangers hiding their faces in hoodies and sunglasses. Similarly for a good credit score you need a history of taking and paying off loans.

You may need a good life on display rather than just an absence of bad things.

If you embrace many worlds all these issues go away.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Vitaly Nikolayenko?

"He spent 33 years living with the brown bears (Ursus arctos) native to the Kamchatka peninsula (...) For over 20 years, Nikolayenko followed an enormous male he named Dobrynya, forming such an easy bond that the bear would often curl up to sleep just a few feet from him."

Eventually he died of a bear mauling.

Moral of the story: it works until it doesn't.

Sounds like adversarial patches
