I feel like there’s a middle ground between your two posts, like the speed limit should be lowered by 5 and that should be added as a margin of error. That way you don’t get angry people behind you for going under the speed limit when you’re just trying to not get a ticket.

I’m not sure it’s super constructive to be so antagonistic, especially when the other person has a valid concern.

It’s only cheaper if the mistakes it makes cost less to fix than paying a human to do it in the first place. That said, shifting operating costs to operating risk usually looks good on paper because the risks don’t get quantified properly or at all.

Don’t trust that other guy. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. I can offer it to you on a payment plan of 24 easy monthly payments of $0.

Man who wrote self help book says his own advice really helped him.

The declining birth rate isn’t going to hurt anyone alive today.

Having a top heavy age demographic means less tax revenue will be split between more required services. There will also be fewer labourers with more labour requirements. The only ones it won’t hurt are the billionaires.

It’s probably a good thing in the long run that human population is stabilising, but it’s going to be problematic until we get to that stable state.

Religion today is voluntary, at least in most of the world.

You often don’t have the autonomy to not participate in religion as a child if your parents want you to.

there are plenty of video essays that I’ve watched for content that I never watched in the first place, because the analysis was highly entertaining and is much less time consuming

This makes me think of Angela Collier’s essay segment “that time I read and enjoyed Ayn Rand”, because nobody should ever have to sit through reading Atlas Shrugged.
