joepie91 🏳️🌈 | my life is, quite literally, a series of harm reduction tradeoff considerations | 12:57:19 |
Irenes | sure, yeah, there's this concept of a "moral hazard" which holds that people who don't pull the lever in a trolley problem are never culpable, but people who do, are. | 12:57:41 |
Irenes | and I don't buy that concept at all. | 12:57:48 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | (also, I am quite literally painfully aware of the harm caused) | 13:01:31 |
Irenes | I am weighing the cost of inaction, here, I was trying to allude to that. that cost is high. I just don't think it's so high that there aren't people in my position who would have walked away. | 13:02:00 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | ah, in that sense, right. | 13:02:46 |
Irenes | like if I'm taking the blame for somebody else's actions, I want to distinguish the cases where I'd do that from straight-up extortion, where I would take a dramatically lessened share of blame | 13:03:35 |
Irenes | that's the philosophical nuance here | 13:03:41 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | oh no, I've been hackernews'ed | 13:04:13 |
Irenes | someone posted about you? I'm so sorry | 13:04:29 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | rather a gist of mine | 13:04:37 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | so yeah, if I seem inattentive over the next couple of days, it's probably because of the fallout from that | 13:05:01 |
Irenes | my sympathies. feel free to message 1:1 if you need emotional support, my friends and I have been in many analogous situations and I'm always happy to listen. | 13:05:24 |
joepie91 🏳️🌈 | thanks | 13:05:45 |

joepie91 🏳️🌈 | but I don't want to take over this channel with complaints about HN, it was more just a comment of "here's why I'm gonna be a bit absent probably" :) | 13:15:39 |
