Numberwangon Ask HN: What are the things that you have automated in your personal life?

Wow, that is probably exactly what happened. Funnily enough it looks very much like my parents place.

So you are saying HN has taken an active stance against Islam?

Numberwangon China’s SenseTime, the world’s highest-valued AI startup, closes $620M round

How can't this be a legitimate opinion?

Numberwangon Jeff Bezos Pledges to Expand His Space Ventures

Why do anything? The reason we have all that we have is a combination of exploration and problem solving. Meaning often comes at the same time as you solve a problem, not nessesarily before.

Numberwangon Why read old philosophy?

I'm just saying, if you can't quantify it, anything goes.

Islam has the ultimate answer to all these personal journey questions. No need for greek philosophy.

“Either the moon is made of cheese or it isn’t” is not a personal belief that should impress anyone.

Numberwangon A Design Lab Is Making Rituals for Secular People

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_ideas

wash your hands.

Numberwangon A Design Lab Is Making Rituals for Secular People

Well I did my masters in history of ideas, but I guess I didn't understand the smart.

Numberwangon A Design Lab Is Making Rituals for Secular People

Any sane person would chose washing your hands and more useful knowledge than the collected wisdom mentioned. People can rarely be woken up from wishful thinking and in the cases they were they did the work themselves.

Numberwangon A Design Lab Is Making Rituals for Secular People

I'm just pointing out woo has little value other than a source of fiction.

Numberwangon A Design Lab Is Making Rituals for Secular People

It's all bullshit and without wisdom. Just because you want to believe something is true or holds truths doesn't make it so.

If you put all religion and ideologies ever invented in one hand and the concept of washing your hands in the other, washing your hands wins without contest.

Numberwangon Heart surgeons refuse difficult operations to avoid poor mortality ratings

Yes, you are correct.

Numberwangon Heart surgeons refuse difficult operations to avoid poor mortality ratings

Yes, lot's of things are always involved. Including air quality etc as I think I saw on HN just the other day.

I find it interesting though that the right type of vegan diet will basically make you hypertension and heart attack proof and that it may also reverse heard disease (the only diet to do so). Especially when you look at mortality and costs of healthcare this really need to be more generally recognized.

Numberwangon Heart surgeons refuse difficult operations to avoid poor mortality ratings

It's sad to hear this when it's totally unnecessary.

Hear disease has been a solved problem for decades. Just compare the rates of disease for vegans with the general population.
