2 million $ to the person you love or 1$ anonymously to 200 million poor?

Here is an ethics thought experiment that explores personal connection in altruism, similar to Peter Singer's thought experiments. Suppose you were given these two choices Choice A: You can give any single person you know (other than yourself) 2 million $ openly. Choice B: You can give 200 million of the poorest people on the earth 1 $ each, anonymously.  If one were a sensing and feeling type of person, then the choice would be obviously A. You could give your loved one 2 million dollars and that would be enough to make them financially independent for the rest of their life (assuming they use the money judiciously). You would be interacting with them regularly, you know them well for a long time and will continue seeing them be happy for the rest of your life. This is similar to the ending in The Last of Us. If one were logical, intuitive and truly selfless then choice B is clearly the better choice. Poor people across the globe would benefit many orders of magnitude more than in...

Informative YouTube channels

-
  YouTube (YT) can be a double edged sword for our long term well being. One the one hand it contains many informative, useful videos that improve our understanding of the world, on the other hand one could easily be sucked into mindlessly watching useless videos. Understanding how YT works will help us use it better. One thing we have to be wary about is YTs recommender system. This can hook us on and make us crave for more videos . I would recommend extensions like Distraction Free YT to avoid seeing YT recommendations next to current video. Instead of recommendations we can choose based on channels. Channel list Below I have shared a list of channels/playlist which I believe are more substance than style.   General 3Blue1Brown - YouTube Maths visualizations. Asianometry Semiconductors, history, general. Crash Course World History This channel has multiple courses, but the original history one was really interesting. Daniel Patton - YouTube Book reviews.

Autofunctions

Autofunctions: Exploring Recursive Utility in Everyday Objects Introduction In a world teeming with multifaceted objects and tools, a curious phenomenon often goes unnoticed: the ability of some objects to perform their primary function on others of their kind. I've coined a term for this fascinating concept: "Autofunctions." This blog post delves into the realm of autofunctions, exploring their presence in our daily lives and their implications in various fields. Defining Autofunctions An autofunction is when an object or tool applies its primary function to another of its kind. Think of a bag carrying other bags, a crane lifting another crane, or a software debugging tool debugging itself. This phenomenon transcends simple utility, reflecting a self-referential or recursive nature in the design and function of these objects. Everyday Examples To truly grasp the concept of autofunctions, let's look at some commonplace examples: Containers Holding Containers: This inc...
