Because it can be useful for certain things, just as how fiction is useful or good or entertaining  even if its not true or doesnt exist.

But notice that we suddenly let go of epistemology and we switched to pragmatics.

Aren’t these all aspects of reality though? Fiction exists as fiction. Logic as logic. That’s all “real”.

@Leo Gura

Are you planning on putting out that Boot Strapping episode?

Are you actually making an alien consciousness course?

I have half an outline for it. But it's sort of a half-baked topic. I need to figure out how to make it meaningful.

@Leo Gura Have you read the book Xenophon : Conversation of Socrates ?

While I was reading this book it was mentioned that Self-discipline was better than Self-Indulgence and Self-discipline makes people happiest. To what extent you agree with this or what your experience tells ?

@vinc3nc What apps are you using to make these. Looks very realistic!

@Leo Gura Is your video game your working on a business venture as much as it is a creative one? Do you hope to make a lot of money off it at some point? Was that one of your original intentions?

Its likely just Sora. So ChatGPT is probably the only thing you'd need.

Does Sheik in this context have a deeper meaning? Because a Sheik is a patriarchal leader or chief, often of a tribe or family, in Islamic countries. The word Sheikh is more often used for religious leaders, but same general concept.

I stopped work on it. It was a proof of concept.

Obviously the goal is to make as much money as possible in the end. But never to compromise on quality.

Games are very expensive to make so you need to make large profit to make the risk worthwhile.

How can you be a Trump supporter and be a truth advocate? You can be a truth seeker and hate the democrats, sure! But you can't be a Trump supporter and be a pure human! It is not about Trump, it is about supporting corrupt individual, if you don't realize how corrupt someone like Trump is, and furthermore to support him? I am the kind of person that will never trust as a friend or do bussiness with someone who supports a corrupt politician! Supporting a corrupt politician by definition means that you have high degrees of corruption within you! We all have, but you have to have a dark psyche to agree with a corrupt person, let alone a politician! You have to have extremely selfish interests, to support Trump means that for you corruption is not a problem, it is a great feature of reality that must be exploited to the fullest for your own selfish survival agenda! That's why I refuse to ever associate with such people or their work!

Oh, are you planning to anything with regards to game design in the future?

Someone's politics is the best mirror of their levels of corruption within themselves! Spiral dynamics is to observe levels of cognitive development, someone's politics is the best model to measure someone's levels of personal corruption

What do you think of Peter Zeihan? I just discovered him and at first glance seems preety accurate!
