Every time free will comes up on HN these bizarre statements arise. Compatabilism is crap and even Dan Dennett perhaps the most famous compatabilist knows it. He often says "You have free will, it's just not what you…
Less cognitive, really, did you give them all IQ tests? In a discussion on any other topic on HN shitty anecdotes like this would be dismissed immediately.
Is this a bot or what? I find it hard to believe that people actually believe that if you smoke pots you will only engage in Banal activities. Unbelievable. Don't all you nerds live in Cali anyway so wtf is HN's issue…
Good research, please go write a letter to the esteemed Journalists at South Park letting them know that they made an error.
Why is it that on this topic specifically HN users, who are largely analytical logic driven people, consistently rely on Anecdotes?
Scott Walker is the incarnation of evil. It's no surprise he is finding creative ways to help his rich benefactors.
Why is this comment even necessary? The number of dirt poor rural whites in the US is staggering. Would you be comfortable telling such a person that they have immense privilege because of their white skin? They'll…
Yes the only possible reason is bias, there can be no other explanation.

You can look up countless instances of Social Science professors and students saying unironically that for instance superior Male performance in sports is entirely due to social upbringing. These people are…
I think you are seriously overestimating our current understanding of the universe/physics. For instance we don't even know if our universe is finite or not, if it's infinite then your point is moot and you literally…
It's critically important to admit that there ARE differences in the first place. Something that inexplicably has become taboo to many on the left.
Yeah the sexes are exactly identical. Males lack ovaries because of environmental effects... /s
>Apparently too many people dismiss the second possibility and forget reporting about it when discussing the topic. I doubt most people even HN types have read the actual argument. > I can think of several limits of…
I don't think you are representing the argument accurately. The logic is as follows: 1. Assuming any rate of improvement of simulations there will reach a point where a simulation is indistinguishable from reality 2.…
