    The reason Musk is so rich and powerful is because he is ruthless and shameless

    I thought most of his success can be attributed to his genius-level aptitude in engineering. Or is it the case that he is mostly just a business man, and the genius engineering behind his companies can mostly be attributed to those working underneath him? @Leo Gura

    You can study academic philosophy forever and get nowhere in your understanding of what's important.

    That’s a bold statement to make. Tell that to the chair of Harvard’s philosophy department and see how they react. @Leo Gura

    what’s the goal of academic philosophy then? Is it just an entertaining mind game masked as serious academic work?

    It's hard to admit to yourself that all your years of meditation has gotten you virtually nowhere.

    When you say that meditation is virtually useless, do you mean in terms of reaching the highest states of consciousness or generally speaking? @Leo Gura

    Like one can still benefit greatly from having an hour per day meditation practice even though it will never bring them to highest states of consciousness?
