We have a hard time escaping our subjective perspective. It’s not a lottery. There are two humans who decide with almost 100 % certainty where they create a new human. It’s hard to wrap your head around that, but understanding physicalism helps. The idea that you could be someone else is wrong.

The argument seems to be that, in a language with ungendered pronouns, all genders are included, so you don’t need neopronouns for the purpose of inclusion. Nevertheless, you could still replace an ungendered pronoun with a neopronoun to be more accurate, or for other purposes.

The German word for actions like that is “Konfrontative Religionsbekundung”. My layman translation would be “confrontational exhibition of religious faith”.

Holy shit! That’s the most depressing thing I read in a while. :(

“fringe arguments that link genetics and intelligence” – genes influence intelligence, that’s the state of science.

I’ve always wondered how people who think the link between genes and intelligence is false explain the evolution of intelligence. I’m honestly shocked that people here in “Technology” give your comment so many upvotes. Shouldn’t we be more sciency here? Also, AI is a good example that intelligence is not independent of the material world.

Your point (1) probably gets applause because of camp thinking. Don’t let your beliefs become your identity. http://www.paulgraham.com/identity.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxqTOm3TzsY

However, I understand that the topic is extremely uncomfortable and personally even think it should be avoided because society is not ready for it. There is still too much racism and hatred existing in society for this knowledge not to be abused. The same social immaturity also explains why currently many suspect this research to be motivated by racism.

Alignment with the facts? Depends. https://quillette.com/2022/07/18/cognitive-distortions/

Beat me to it.

Interesting. About a month ago I joined the elite club of WinRAR licence owners.

I bought one about three weeks ago.

I cannot believe that. Do you have any proof? Could you be mistaken that that comment was the reason?

Currently playing it too after a 3 year break. :)

This is valuable information, if you are interested in eating them.

But I am made for love, not war!
