Children would change that, instantly. I wasn't a father until late in life and then all of a sudden, everything is easy. The moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep, every moment has meaning and purpose. Nothing, no meal, no evening, no dollar is wasted. As my children grow - the only question is how long do I have until I have grandchildren. After that - how long until I no longer have skin in the game? I do full time AI stuff and it is meaningless other than the provision it provides. I would not recommend avoiding the biological imperative. Reproduce. Everything else after that moment is clarity. | ||

> I would not recommend avoiding the biological imperative. Reproduce. Everything else after that moment is clarity. I'd like to point out that experience is far from universal. Parenting beyond "feed and shelter them" is a minefield of ambiguity and conflicting evidence. | ||
