does anyone ever get the feeling that they are living in the timeline that keeps them alive for the longest? that every potential car crash, even time you slip and wobble a little on a wet stairwell, every time you feel a piece of food almost get lodged in your throat, that some other world had you splattered or tumbled or choking and you&#39;re just unaware of it because it pared off from the reality in which you inhabit?

I personally find &quot;computer science is actually a humanities study&quot; takes pretty trite because the reality is that almost everything is a humanities study, by the definition being applied. Every field of study benefits enormously from the ability to relate to, work with, empathise with, understand the needs of, assess the impacts of new developments on, and be patient with, other humans.

i am deadly serious about my thoughts about financial excommunication if someone is a reckless driver who poses a danger to others, we take away their license to drive. why should money be different? if you are a reckless danger to other people&#39;s lives because of how you use your money, you should lose your right to interact with money until youcan show society your reformation.
