The country has been ruined by increasing immigration numbers to double of what it was previously while failing to even build the necessary homes needed for the growing young adulthood demographic. It’s sad that some of my peers are even st

I'm surprised you're being downvoted when almost all the lack of infrastructure for the future of Canadian youth doesn't just hint at what you're expressing, but instead screams it. Almost all politicians in Canada are l

The tech industry needs an association similar to how doctors join the American Medical Association, where they can collectively agree on ethics and guidelines that must be followed. Any person in tech is behaving unethically if they assist

I rarely comment on the illusion of free will because doing so often results in individuals spouting the same anti-intellectual drivel and canned responses that fail to highlight the main point. They would likely need to pause and read my c

Yawn, I'm sure you advocate in favour of the nonsense that comes out of religious people that believe in their nonsense that has no evidence as well.

The impact that corporate shills have on public perception is quite powerful. It's peculiar how the general public acknowledges it in other fields such as entertainment, such as with Hollywood movie stars or prominent musicians. Howeve

Thanks for sharing! I'm personally a fan of the idea that life has always existed, meaning we have always existed as well. It's very cool to listen to someone like Roger Penrose expressing his thoughts on what possibly happened be

I agree; it feels like what could happen a lot with this system is similar to what people did to get past captchas with their bot software. They might hire some less fortunate individuals to attempt solving it. I found the video funny, but

> I was raised totally secular How come your comment history says otherwise (Judaism). I'm perplexed that the new approach to selling religion is pretending to be raised secular and or have others perceive oneself to once be an athe

I think with rent being a lot higher nowadays including with inflation of goods and add wage stagnation to the equation is making living situations worse for Gen Z; and resulting in less social gatherings. Less space at home from living in

"[...]when it would have been much easier and more effective to simply never reveal them to begin with if they did work." I don't necessarily agree with what you're suggesting as being simpler. It may, in fact, be simple

> As for free will, anyone saying we don’t have it is doing bad science since every person knows they do. A lot of suffering exists in our society due to that belief you have regardless if it's correct or wrong and similar suffering
