We are no-where close to AGI or anything that poses a existential risk yet. Atleast for the next few decades we are safe enough. However, the more real risk is huge lay offs and loss of lots of real jobs and that is the area where our govts should focus on. The economic fallout of AI will be massive and it will be in the same scale as the boom of the internet.

This sounds like a really powerful visualization technique,but I suspect that it could prove to be a double edged sword.It could result in actually triggering up of several deep rooted emotions as fucking up memories like a vinyl is easier said than done. If it works for you,then it's okay. But you should consider other time tested methods too,like accepting it for what it is.Moving on and focusing on more urgent matters usually works better for me.Mulling it over and dwelling on it seems to make it stronger. On a basic level all traumas are like a flame.You can feed it,or step on it and snuff it out.

Maybe he is,maybe he isn't. Doesn't change the fact that you and I still need to work towards it. -

Well,imagine a trough of water on a table.When you disturb the table, vibrations cause tremendous ripples on it's surface.If you were searching for a gem on the bottom of the trough,you cant see it anymore.You cant even see your own reflection. When you search for something very hard,you are causing waves and ripples on the surface and the water even spills out.So what you are searching for is very hard to find as all that churning makes the water a little muddy too. It is when we stop all that searching,and all the sediments begin to settle down,and the vibrations and ripples die away, you really begin to see what lies beneath. -
It is very much possible.I don't see why not.I think that will be a defining moment in the history of our species since the invention of the wheel when we first learnt tool use.Now we are using tools to upgrade our very self.And we would reach some form of singularity. But we as a species need to overcome several big challenges before we come close to that.We need to mature ourselves more and gain some form of collective enlightenment.Also we would still have to tackle problems like scarcity of resources,global climate change and all that lot.Plus we have the insurmountable problem of whatever destructive potential all that Technological actualization could bring.Because bad guys can still get actualized.

Wow,Maybe you should divert all that energy into something more productive dude.Like doing the actual thing with actual girls? In moderation it is not bad,but at you're frequency, your dick will fall off soon.:) Another risk is a time would come when you'd prefer fapping to doing the actual thing.It sounds ridiculous now maybe,but such is the power of habit.

Hi Ade, I can feel what you are going through.It's your nose.What you do with it is entirely your business and you have to answer for it to nobody.You can deny or tell the truth doesn't really matter.You were not comfortable with your nose so you did it.Period.It's like your feeling guilty about it.Shed the guilt.Don't complicate it any more than it needs to be.It is only feeling this way because you haven't still adjusted to life after the operation. I understand what you are feeling and that is perfectly natural,but you have to get over it. What people are thinking about you doesn't matter whether they are talking about it -don't give a fuck about that.It's your nose,your life.As you descend to their level and engage in such low consciousness stuff,your life is ebbing away. These people you mix with now,they will be nowhere in your life 5 years from now.Stop taking it so seriously and personally. And maybe you should devote your energy to the non-physical attributes of life too,as these will play a serious role in the years to come. Cheers, Rito.

What mistakes did you make early on as a life coach? What do you wish you could have done better or stressed more?

You are right,it could be better.I am not saying that it is bad and should never follow your dreams.Definitely could be better.And Hundreds of other things could be More better.Life in a Hawaiian Island could be even better.Life in Philipines could be better than that too,you can just be in your shorts in the beach sipping pinacoladas and working from your laptop while Hot Masseuses give you a relaxing massage.Being the President of the US could be even better. You have to stop at one point.Settle down.The problem is not with Australia.It is with your thinking process that could bring you misery.You want to have the best life possible when infact attaining the best is like running after the mirage in a desert.The closer you get the farther the "best life" would evade and elude you.You will never achieve lasting peace and satisfaction,and would run about like mad man here and there for the better life. I am not saying that you should not have goals and high targets.It is just that they should not dictate you,have absolute power over you. Good Luck Mate,Live long and Prosper in Australia Keep me posted on what happens.

I feel Yes they would have different reactions,but they would preserve themselves still most probably. The reason for preservation would be different than those who are unenlightened.The unenlightened preserve themselves out of a base selfish need and mostly unconsciously .They would preserve themselves as they would want to consciously spread their messages and continue their life purpose. Also, Enlightened people has a deep and profound appreciation of life and the universe so they would still not want o end their life prematurely. They would respond calmly and consciously and not react with a rush of adrenalin with the usual Flight and Figt response.

I feel that you are trying to fullfil some void,some piece that you are missing in the puzzle of life.You would be wrong to assume that Australia is the missing piece.Make some money and travel to Australia again for a year on a tourist visa.Eventually you will out grow your maddening desire for Australia and will be able to move on. And mediate and mediate,work on yourself.Cause if you don't fill that void your misery won't end.Maybe it's Australia now.10 years later it will be something else

Well,strike out option A entirely as engineering is not something so easy that you can finish it at the drop of a hat.If you don't like it ,it will make your life hell.So it is not the easier option. Building an online business sounds to me like the better alternative. But my friend why are you fixating on Australia like this?You think that it is the life you envision but I think you're mind is playing tricks on you.Life isnt all barbecues and surfing.I think you have developed a unhealthy obssession where Life without australia isnt simply worth living for you.Trust me one day you get tired of it as well.This attitude is going to make you suffer and it has made you suffer already.Start looking inwards. Focus on yourself more and try to build a stable online business.The effort you put in now is going to pay you off later. I used to feel the same way towards emigrating to Germany,I really broke down when I didn't get TU München so I totally get what you are going through.But then I achieved maturity and understood that life won't stop and this is really an unhealthy fixation.Work on your online business,go all out on it and then readjust your goals again.

I started when I was 14 albeit accidentally.And the effort I put in then,I am reaping the rewards still now.The earlier you start sowing the greater and magnanimous the returns are going to be. You see when you are young you are more malleable,and you are still building your character so it's easy to inculcate all these new values. Also you are still a student and not earning in a 9-5 job that is leaving you completely exhausted. Go forth and Self-actualize.

All negative emotion barring techniques somehow revolve around this technique.I think the more you meditate ,practice mindfulness and work on your self,the better your power of dismissal becomes.You stop participating in your thoughts and you can independently observe them.This happens when you realize enlightenment .Thought control can not only help you dismiss emotions ,but make you master your psychology as your thoughts can make or break you
