Rationality is not culture dependent. It is not even human.

I don't think so. There are groups of well educated, smart and dutiful people with their career and moral integrity on the line, making incredibly hard decisions.

At the same time, it is evacuating whole housing blocks if a single tenant gets infected.

I don't imagine that someone asked the kings what they preferred. Instead, someone took over with a potent mind virus.

Especially if it's not really 360. Do you think that China would put its entire economy and political stability in peril to save a few thousand people?

But I am sometimes remembering the future! Not in ways that allows me to break the bank, but I often know what will happen, which I think implies that my experience is constructed in part after the fact.

It's so hilarious that hackers are posting stuff like reverse engineering tutorials on pornhub because YouTube bans them. "Boss, I swear, it's not how it looks, I was watching a conference talk!"

Unless you want to avoid that your population stops working and the infrastructure collapses. It may be better to let 1 million die of disease than 10 million of hunger. No idea what the Chinese projections look like.

WHO: awful people give you massive misinformation about Corona virus. Also WHO: best prevention is to sneeze into your elbow, and we consider 17000 people to be infected.

Once you realize that the physical universe and the mental universe don't happen simultaneously, you begin to wonder at which moment in physical time your current experience of the present has been constructed. Do you remember parts of the future because it has already happened?

It's not especially contagious (transmission from bird to human is relatively rare); they kill them to avoid other birds being infected.
