    The idea that there are negative but not positive ethical obligations -- that ethics can compel inaction but not action -- is a primary means by which unusual action in general is prevented, and stasis is maintained.

    "Skepticism" has gone from meaning "you don't know how much of what you were taught etc is true so think it through yourself from first principles" to "it only counts if an official organization did a big expensive RCT". These meanings are not just different, but opposed.

    Every generation gets to choose if its new looming threats are the impetus for humanity to make itself small before its gods, or the impetus to rise and grow and become the beast that eats the beast

    This topic just reminded me of a measure of mental health that Eliezer Yudkowsky proposed: a healthy mind often has new, not previously-thought thoughts. An unhealthy mind is often "loopy".

    I don't really know. But I don't think the discussion ends at the point where you say that mental illnesses is just preferences.

    Sometimes the lazy agent gets in control; sometimes the one that likes to discuss things on Twitter. And so, an alcoholic can sometimes be in the mood to binge and other times feel genuinely remorseful, but maybe only 5% of the time. Does this alcoholic deserve help from society?

    But of course this, too, gets messy really quickly. I think the problem is mostly that humans are better modeled as consisting of several agents with different preferences who are always competing for control.

    The question is then, what do we hope to get out of calling some behavioral changes a mental illness and others preferences? Maybe something like, if people will illnesses ask for help, then society should allocate some resources to helping them.

    The VNM utility theorem tells us that any agent who acts somewhat self-consistently, can be seen as maximizing a utility function (i.e. it's optimizing for its preferences); so saying mental illness (which changes behavior) changes preferences seems almost tautological?

    It bears repeating: in order for humanity's understanding of the world to become incrementally more correct, individuals have to be free to be wrong.

    A good civilization can build social trust between people without needing an outgroup.

    These might be good things (a state with strong national unity can be very effective as costly checks are replaced by reliance on loyalty) but they also have the effect of dehumanizing foreigners.

    Your fellow tribe members can see that you are loyal to the tribe by making such proclamations and they won't need to be afraid of you betraying their tribe which would destroy their livelihood.

    Everyone probably already knows this but the fact that nationalism is so popular is due to the fact that when you claim that your country should have all the resources it feels equivalent to claiming your tribe should have all the resources in the ancestral environment.

    The millennial labor force is *profoundly* underskilled, having been met with the most top-down education system ever (stripped of trade skills, free play & everything else that cuts against test prep), helicopter parenting & the rise of FOMO/consumer (vs. maker) lifestyles

    "No one should be able to create things other people value at a billion dollars" doesn't have quite the same ring to it, though.

    It is possible to copy an aspect of someone's philosophy without copying their whole worldview. In fact, it's usually better to do it this way.

    It's really important to cultivate the mindset that you are most likely making stupid mistakes all the time and that you should learn from them. Otherwise you will spend the rest of your life constructing narratives justifying that what you did wasn't actually a mistake.

    The important thing here is being able to distinguish between a "correct contrarian" and some Alex Jones type who believes weird stuff just because.
