1) Not there yet :smirk:

2) Reality is real, it is really there, but we can only ever know what our senses perceive. Our human idea of "Reality" is just an individual human construct, make-believe that our brains literally stitch together from the pieces of information coming in.

3) Ask me this at different points in my life and I will give a different answer, but, right now, I would say biology. More than anything, biology.

4) It shouldn't have to. We should all be taught what to do and not to do. The fact that it does, however, is part of the problem.

5) Neither. Both.

6) Love and Hate :tongue2:

7) The ideal life is whatever makes you happy. To die well is to meet Death with as much courage as you can muster!

8) I think it's happening right now. Perhaps not "The Singularity", but I think if you actually read all the history you will find there is no beginning. To anything.

9) Yes they most definitely do, as anyone with pets will tell you. All mammals share certain parts of the brain, so all mammals should experience - to some degree - so called "human" emotion. Lower animals probably only experience emotion.

10) Honestly? We have had our run. I hope we can get AI off the ground before that long.

But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

What does it mean to die well?

I believe in dying well. Or honorably, like a Samurai.

I feel the answer is very subjective. Dying well may mean to die in a preferable manner, whatever it may be.

Of course, one might be hit by a truck instead.

So, there is sudden death, short deaths, long deaths, and so forth.

Or, could dying simply mean getting older?

Perhaps I live like a Samurai right now, because I am currently dying -- or getting older.

As for a short death, I will fight to the end.

1) If you had to sum up the whole human species in 3 words, what would those words be?

Wooooah man lol

2) Is what we perceive reality or just a construct of our minds? Can our minds correctly interpret reality or is reality subjective?

Reality is whatever we want it to be. The energy the human race has added to the word 'Reality' is a naive one. But it's for them. Lets say Galileo had a telescope when he was 0 years old and he just couldn't stop looking at it. He died a day later. Bam! Reality!

3) What is the best way to explore human nature: psychology, philosophy, or biology?

Being the flow. You are that, more than anything.

4) Should governments make laws to protect people from hurting themselves?

The authority of the heart is all there should be. Seek like hearted folk, not like minded. The heart should be the 'driver' and the mind the steering wheel, not vice versa.

5) Are humans better at creation or destruction?

Experts at both.

6) What are the best and worst parts of human nature?

Bests: Providing Simplicity, good level of comfort & happiness.

Worsts: Failing to do so because of thinking all this is so real.

7) What does the ideal life look like? What does it mean to die well?

Ideal life: To look at everyone as equal and whole. To end seperation and entity identities. But that's my entity identity typing.

To die well: To be the flow you are, and go with it like you always have. Life is amazing, but sometimes beauty is scary, so in those times, just chill man.

8) What do you think about the singularity? The idea that eventually artificial intelligence will advance to the point where computers are more intelligent than humans.

The apocolypse has arrived. It exists in many parts of the world. It is only that we live in incredible insulation and privileged that we get to anticipate it. I see either extinction or togetherness. Either way, my emotional connections to either one are just that..

9) Do animals experience emotions? If so, do they experience emotions in the same way humans do? If not, how do they experience the world and what dictates their behavior?

My Mothers dog (yes, i am a loser, been at my mommy's) either fell on ice or layed on her paw badly, and for a few hours was limping. When I was there to check out her feelings (bc im no tech dick) she has a twinkle in her eye for as long as I was there with her. All I know is dogs are loyal as f*ck; cats are independent as f*ck.

10) What would be the best possible scenario for how the world will develop in the next 25 years?

Don't ask me... It may consist of "Let go", "Forgive" and "lmfaoXD"

"There are times— and this would be a great study for somebody to do—there have been periods in English when there were emotions that don't exist anymore, because the words have been lost. There are colors that don't exist anymore because the words have been lost." — Terence McKenna (The Archaic Revival: 1991)
