Who has a favorite asklemmy question?

Most of the richest 1% would come from few different countries, so there would probably be less cultural differences at least. I could imagine the world being divided into one country per continent or something. People living very far from each other would accelerate digitalisation of governance.

Cutting emissions by about 95% could also help with climate change. Also people could just move away from highly affected regions.

I think humanity might just be better off. That said, I dont think this is limited to the richest 1%, most distributions of 1% of the population would do.

If 80m people survived a few thousand years ago and kept growing, why would 80m people now, with access to thousands of times more knowledge and technology, die?

If I use it daily, app. Else, website. I dont understand why every website that noone looks at more than twice a year needs an app.

You know the definition of charisma is likability. You say you dont want charisma but want to be liked. Those are literally opposites. Its not a curse, its what you are choosing for yourself. No person is born the way they are throughout their lives. We all change on a daily basis. We make small changes in our behaviour to fit in with others, to be liked and cared for. Thats how humans survived until now. You cant expect a person to like you if you refuse the idea of being likable.

You dont have to be whatever you imagine the ‘friend of everyone guy’ to be like (Im saying it like this because that is not an objective description of a person). You can be any other version of kind likable people.

Ok so let me summarize.

1. You dont like your current life

2. You dont want to change because you dont want to be someone else than who you currently are.

3. You think your problems ‘are happening to you’ and you have no influence on that

4. You hate the rest of the world for not being the way you want it to be

I think you need to accept that the world will not change for you, but you can adapt to the world. Changing your mindset is not the same as deleting your whole personality. If you think being a complaining little b* is the core of your personality and you dont want to change that then I guess noone can help you.

But I dont think thats the case and you probably know that many people in this thread are right. You are mentally ill and need help. Noone is judging you for that. Just get some professional help ffs. Theres no shame in it, most people nowadays have some form of mental instability or trauma. Not wanting to do anything about it is whats being judged, but thats not part of who you are, its what your subconscious planted inside your ego to shield it from trauma.

I agree, but I also think that it can still work. Most relationships dont depend on people being compatible from the start but develop from them being together.

Like the other commenter said its meant to be interpreted in base10.

You could also just take 0.01001100011100001111… as an example

If it works, it works. Not sure what level of math and physics we are talking about here, but university mathematics usually doesnt have “problems” in the common sense. Sure, there are going to be questions on the exam which you can solve using the theory or by remembering similar questions. But, upcoming topics are going to heavily rely on the theory, not on the applied methods for problem-solving. So you might start having problems there. But again, if your system still works for that, who cares.

Also, if you are aiming to become a Doctor / Professor / stay at university, youre going to need to remember the theory. Pretty sure there wont be a way around it.

Um, sure.

Not sure how you interpreted my comment as criticism, but it wasnt. Nevertheless, there is no comparable alternative, so unfortunateIy cant “do so”.

I dont think its about availability, more about the convenience of having everything in one place and especially the rating system (which of course only works if you have a huge customer base and is also being exploited so not really a plus for Amazon anymore)

Of course it is, but why does convenience have to be built on exploitation? I would gladly pay higher prices for an ethical alternative.

I have a monthly recurring donation to the GiveWell Top Charities fund. GiveWell ranks charities by efficiency (i.e. impact per dollar) and distributes the funds donations to the most effective ones. Those include fighting malaria, world hunger, child blindness,…

Your example is wrong even in our universe lol. In the trivial ring (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_ring ), 0=1 is true.

What you are probably imagining when talking about 0 and 1 are their representatives in the “integer ring” or maybe the ring of real numbers. Both are simply definitions made by humans and in no way universal truths.

English is probably not your first language, but still, this should be pretty clear to anyone with a basic understanding of it. Reread the sentences

There is dark without light. Sound without silence. Nothing without something.

These are all true sentences.

You didnt even try, did you?

You dont see a difference between ‘making an argument’ and ‘forcing (because thats the exact word you used) someone to change their way of life’?

Also, I am not mad at you for eating meat. It is your own decision. Im not even vegan myself. Please dont project your insecurities on me. I am mad at big corporations and billionaires for causing misery for a large group of people, but for that to change, I sincerely believe that the attitude in our society has to change from blindly consuming everything we are offered to living and consuming more consciously. I will not start shooting billionaires (thats obviously what youre suggesting and I hope it is just a phase driven by interner anonymity and frustration).

And related to 3., taking matters into your own hands is my whole point, youre arguing against it.

Also, please answer 2, because youre constantly complaining about me suggesting that change comes from.the consumers, but you are completely avoiding suggesting any alternative.
