@DefenderOfBasic it's perfect when everyone already has slack

@eshear well there's no math to define your axioms, gotta start somewhere

[matthijs @MatthijsCox]

@nickcammarata I also liked your multiverse argument for the pointlessness of feeling regret, like "would you want all parallel versions of yourself to feel bad about their paths"? No obviously not, please feel good.

@chrislakin So how do you discover your boundaries then, if not by feeling good/bad about some action? If you ARE boundaries, then learning your boundaries is learning something about yourself.

@AbstractFairy @DefenderOfBasic he does seem to possess an endless array of insight posts

Going to re-read Star Maker, the most epic multiverse saga ever written, or at least that's how I remember it. A story that includes the entire time scale of the universe and beyond.

@unrenormlizable one emoji prompts 800 images? amazing!

It reminds me a little of Unsong by Scott Alexander, except without the christian theme and a much grander storyline, although narrated a little dryly.

Finally we reach the "supreme moment of the cosmos" and get in touch with the Star Maker. It is everything yet also the creator of cosmos after cosmos, which it spins from itself.
