This is hypocrisy.

Altruism and books like this can't coexist together.

Altruism is the reason behind lack of critical thinking.

Economic man is unrealistic but they are focusing on the wrong parameter.

Humans always act rationally based on the information they have, they are always trying to maximize their self-interests.

But they don't have perfect information.

We talk about freedom of expression, but if the general public can't think critically, what is the point of their speech?

They are just puppets of the masters, regurgitating whatever they are told to think.

The "Altruism" virus must go.

"Perceiving relationships through a lens of logic and utility, rather than purely emotional terms"

The act of teaching everyone "Altruism" from childhood and then praising cynical moves from geniuses like Elon.

This nonsense must stop.

"Right to think" must be an universal right, for everyone.

My goal is to eliminate BS frameworks like this.

Talking about altruism and then promoting cynicism as specialized frameworks.

When altruists write code, this happens.

Impulsive behavior is a problem of lack of self-trust to get the "better" reward in future. It's not a character issue.

What is the future of these kinds of gratitude mails?

Will they keep their place or people learn to shed the formalities?

Everyone knows they are copy pasted, still used as a norm like legal jargons.

Why do we have to waste 40 years of life to understand this?

And make confusing terms like "Emotional expense"?

Cynicism solves the root issue = "Human beings are only motivated by self-interests".

Consider emotions as valid rewards and every behavior will make sense.

"Strategic insanity"!

Another nonsense made up subjective term to look cool.

Critical thinking is about analyzing incentives of people and finding leverage to manage them.

Context = Whether South African cricket board will allow their players to return to IPL.

I am tired of seeing this nonsense regarding phone usage.

I use my phone and laptop all day for everything, and I still don't get addicted or have sleep issues.

Everyone is addressing the symptoms instead of fixing their mindset.

First time any LLM said a clear "no" to me without any hedging.

Wow, are we moving towards the end of hallucinations?

How these two are different?

"Lack of faith in people" - The term "people" included myself, which means lack of faith in myself.

Ran first marathon. 10 kms in 74 mins.

The year has strated with a bang. Lets take more risks.
