True. It's definitely a shift in awareness that adds nuances to any situation. It can also go the other way around aswell, like when someone identify to much with their job-title that they only see other as customers or clients as if everyone are npc's.

There is no trap... *Snap!*

Yes, humanize people. It's a good habbit for sure.

It sure could be, but it's important to point out what we refer to as THE mistake in that case then, and not assume that a mistake has been made when we disagree about something. ?.. (If) there where to be a infinite number of planets, there would also be a infinite amount of anything in proportion to how common or uncommon life is on said planets for example. I never refuted that, that would be the case. (If) there is a infinite amount of planets, then there will be infinite amount of possibilities govern by those infinite amounts of planets. Ok, but what about your bank account then? Is the amount in there infinite? It would be nice if you send me some, so we could continue this discussion on a tropical island with a drink in our hands instead, what do you say about that?;) Why not invite everyone on the forum while we at it. It's infinite resorces after all. Oh.. Forget about that bank account question But to say that infinity "touches zero" makes zero sense (pun intended). When speaking about numbers even zero, you refer to a tool of measurement. 0 is a value, so it becomes a value statement once a number is mentioned. If you got an infinite amount of something. Then you can no longer make a value statement about the amount itself. Since infinity exceeds any number you can think of. So zero is nothing but a nonsensical word when speaking of infinity.

I'm sorry but I can't make sense of this. We could for example say that there is an infinite amount of planets, and that would make it pointless to try to count them all since there is no limit to the amount. But if we said that there are zero planets, it would not make any sense since we clearly have seen some of them already. 0 gives numbers a meaning and potential. While infinity makes counting redundant as a tool of measurement of value, but can stil hold infinite value in terms of usefulness.

I'm not sure what you mean in a geometric/dimensional way. But infinite money is not the same as no money. I means that the value of money is redundant for anyone with infinite money, not that it would have no value.

I wouldn't necessary conflate zero with infinity even if there can be some overlap between the two. Zero is a value statement of some sort. While infinity is making some values redundant. Here is a example of a difference between the two. I have zero funds for building a house. I have infinite funds for building a house.

Good choice. The best of luck to you!

Pretty much. When it comes to your private life, you can take advice but not orders. Work and your personal finances are two separate things. It's nothing wrong with working hard, and balance can be quite a flimsy notion. Maybe health is a better word here. Invest in your health aswell, because that is something not even money will fully recover in most cases. Health is the greatest wealth, and as cliche as it sounds, it's stil true. Your boss will likely tell you anything you want to hear as long as it result in you working for him. It can be big and it can be low, and that is why you always need to look at what you might earn in a month/year depending on what line of work you're in. Seasonal work have high profit months and low profit months for example.

Some animals don't sleep, so what about it? Pre-established conclution of what exactly? I see that you try to make a point, but your point isn't pointing towards anything other than a obvious disagreement with how I answered the original question.

It sure is, and that's why your buisness is no one elses buisness. So actual work and free-time are two seperate things, and should be treated as such at all time. Ask yourself this, if successful means that you need to be out of balance. Then what solution does money bring to you when you have built a life based on being out of balance? Should you work yourself sick for the purpouse to be able to buy more expensive medicin to a self-inflicted sickness? Anyone you work for, will reach richness because you and others are working for them. So you must be able to make the distinction between how you will become rich vs how your boss will become rich since it's not a even playing field in the slightest. You wont work yourself richer than or even close to the money that those who deside your work for you do, it's simple as that. Unless you have a paycheck that is exceptionally higher than the average job on the market already, then don't expect to become millionare from working at that place no matter what anyone try to tell you. It is one thing to have a good work ethic, and is another thing to have people around you taking advantage of that work ethic on your behalf.

You wouldn't be able to recognize sleep without dream or dreams without sleep unless they arise in mutul relationship with eachother. If there was no sleep. You wouldn't be able to acknowledge what awake is, or that it is such a state at all even.

"What if's" have many paths and rabbitholes to be explored. And yet you have seem to somehow have reached a final unshakable conclution, despite your choice of openended questioning. If you want to remain in this undeniable and unshakable truth of yours, which seems to be the case. Just remember to never ask yourself this. "What if I'm wrong in my final conclution?"

Sounds like a cult to me. And if not a cult, a very toxic work environment. Just because a group of people are succesful in what they do, doesn't mean that it directly translate to that what they do is in a healthy and balanced way. The cost of doing something can outweigh the monetary gain. It is one thing to try to live up to a certain standard in one's work, something is to be expected there. But what is expected of you needs to be limited to the work itself in every aspect, and not exceed into your personal life unless you choose that for yourself. If it's non-negotiable, then it means that your work has started. And you should get paid from that moment you clock in, and that seems to be 4am for you then. Just as any employer expect to see their workers at the job at a fixed time where the rules are such. That is because it is brainwashing. To recommend friends and family is not uncommon in general. But living with your co-workers is anything but a normal behaviour unless you get into a romantic relationship or consider them such close friends outside of work that you want to live with them. Nobody should have a say in how you spend your free-time off work. YOU should be planning where you live. They can invite you to live with them, and if you happen to say "no thank you". They must accept that and respect you just as much as before asking.

Yeah that is what it must come down to. I'd prefered he said it himself, but I doubt he will. So your answer in his place will do for this one.

If making better art all you care about, then what would you say that you need to get better at to improve your art? Practice is the obvious answer. But what specific practice do you think is needed for your art to be better?

When it comes to guitar, my two faves are Estas Tonne and Buckethead

It sound like you have a limiting belief about logic itself. Logic is the meta cognition behind any self-aware thought-process wheter it makes sense to you or not. You also got those who are merely reactive and deranged, and they don't ever have to make sense of their own behaviour since they are caught up in acting out their impulses no matter what they are or result in. To not talk about one's logical conclutions, doesn't mean that you don't opperate from them to a certain extent. You also don't need to be serious to be logical. Comedians are a perfect example of some of the most logical people there are, since they can take a common perspective and show how illogical it is by making fun of it by how well they understand it's logical limitations. It all depends on what it is that you want to make sense out of.

Totally dude. This is the guy you need to learn from inorder to condition not only your hands, but the tool down there so to speak. The training works exactly the same, so just watch and learn.

Yeah tbh, there is no point in pouring money into gacha games. However, once you get hooked on such a game out of fun, you can then easily be persuaded by trying your luck to get some new fun toy that they hide behind a paywall. So it's a close if not identical to a casino despite the fact that you can't win any money, there is stil prizes. But I understand your point.

How AI artists will be demonstrating their skillsets as a AI-Master-artist..

Haha alright, fair enough

Therapist for the mind. Spiritual guru for the heart.

With free will being a "ghost from the past" I mean that you have to look back on choices you made in the past. Inorder to begin to speculate about free will in the firstplace. If you make what appears to you to be a right choice, you don't see any problem with it. But once you discover that you may or may not be making right choices all the time, you might start to speculate wheter you are the one to take the full blame for any and every choices you do. And this speculation becomes a hunt for the ultimate conclution wheter it is out of free will, or pre-determined choices that you choose from. Non-duality is basically the acknowledgement of the grayscale between what you once thought was a matter of black and white. So instead of thinking in a binary way, there is a relative spectrum to any binary conclution that always unite two apparent opposites into one, despite the apparent division.

None of this flies as a counter-argument to what I said. It's just mental gymnastic at this point, it's that obvious. Feel free to disagree though, I rest my case.
