  1. No. Selfishness is hardwired into the organism. If you were not selfish you would be dead. Selfishness is the precondition for your biological existence.
  2. Being is not understanding. You guys are being sloppy.
  3. @Natasha Tori Maru Kiwis in honor of the lass from down unda Gotta keep the Aussie theme going.
  4. I hate those All-In douche-bros.
  5. I don't see why it wouldn't work. But what sense can a human make of such a text file? It's like reading binary. There are websites that can read genome files and most importantly parse them into useful information.
  6. ShareX screenshot software.
  7. gVim is essential for opening massive text files, like SQL database files that will break any other text editor.
  8. Electrum Wallet is good for moving Bitcoin.
  9. Rookie mistake. Use is irrelevant in an existential matter.
  10. 7zip is a must. Microsoft Visual Studio is good for coding.
  11. A bird has mastered flight without understanding anything. And I understand flight without ever having flown. That is why your definition of understanding is crapola.
  12. @UnbornTao What you are doing is not understanding understanding.
  13. Notepad++ Audacity FireFox
  14. You guys understand understanding as much as this ape understands driving.
  15. No. These are confused examples. Understanding driving does not require doing it. You are confusing mastery of a skill with understanding. Your notion of understanding is sloppy, including stuff that isn't understanding. A monkey can drive a car. That doesn't mean it understands anything. It is a motor skill. Animals perform complex motor skills with zero understanding.
  16. Doing and understanding are two different things. You are confusing them. Ironically, you don't understand what understanding it.
  17. Your position makes no sense. Where do you think humans learn rationality? They don't develop it themselves. It is taught in university. Just cause many university students are poor students doesn't mean the classes don't teach it. If you do serious university study you will learn it. You speak like someone who hasn't studied seriously at a university. Without universities, virtually no one would be rational.
  18. JP is a lesson in the importance of being likeable in public appearances. He's always angry. Over silly things.
