Empathy makes us more objective.

[Naval @naval]

What you create is an honest reflection of who you are.

The happiest people I study center their lives on a few core daily habits. You can think of these as a “happiness pension plan,” the small deposits that compound over time:

• Faith or a philosophical practice that helps you look beyond yourself
• Family
• Friendships that are real and not transactional
• Work that earns success and serves others

Which of these habits deserves more of your focus right now?

@kunalb11 You can have both as long as you know how to communicate properly. "And, not either-or"

It's probably hard to admite for logic-driven people, but it's a skill issue.

Data tells you what, emotions tell you why. Society rooted purely in data ignores human meaning and values that cannot be quantified. Those "bringing data" often use numbers to justify positions they already held. Real wisdom integrates data and emotional intelligence, not one dominating other completely.

@Toddwilk31 I don't understand what point you're making. It's like saying, "Veganism doesn't work with cheeseburgers."

@BitcoinGarfield What do you mean?

Just because we justify the existence of a institutionalized monopoly on violence that forces peaceful people into paying for an arbitrary amount of self proclaimed "justice and security" goods and services, you call us minarchists, statists?

Not sure why I thought of Jacob Collier clothes for Naval but he now looks like a nice guy, you are welcome

It was a pleasure talking with Murray Rothbard and Naval Ravikant.

Haters will say it's AI.

@DefiantLs Would you rather feel sadness or anger watching this?

Seems like most people's prefer anger.

@Stone_tossers Feels a little bit personal

@michaelmalice ChatGPT is the equivalent of a traditional wife.

We all love the idea of peace and being liked and agreed on, on pretty much everything...

Until you actually want smart advice lol

@robkhenderson @BostonGlobe What if this quote is not true and we all have been brainwashed into believing it is because we have heard it often enough

[Max Torres @MaxDTroll]

All human action is driven by a human need.

Why is this so controversial? 😮‍💨

[Max Torres @MaxDTroll]

Name something cooler than a Local LLM powered-Clippy for Linux

Hint: You can't.

@samuel_spitz Wait do you mean we have free will?

[Max Torres @MaxDTroll]

@JonathanShedler Great tweet btw.

[Max Torres @MaxDTroll]

@JonathanShedler I disagree on the word choice of "logical justification". To me, gaining -awareness- of your feelings implies there is some kind of logical, rational explanation. Feelings require no justification; but a logical perspective helps you see the root cause; a need or strategy.
