Death's Awareness Brings Purpose To Life 😎 w/ neil degrasse tyson

Actually, mathematically, since you want to go there neel, "I will die" -> "meaning" does not mean that no "I will die"-> no "meaning". There is no reason to believe that the implication is biconditionnal here: there could very well be other ways to derive meaning from our lives that dont involve finitude

hmmm

[@thraelyad6751]

incorrect, a biconditional here would mean "meaning" -> "I will die". the statement you described is the contrapositive, which is always true if the original implication is true.

[@JustinSimard-v8j]

@@thraelyad6751 you can just construct a simple truth table here and see that p->q doesnt have the same truth values as no p-> no q. The contrapositive is no q-> no p. Therefore in our example it would be no "meaning" -> no " I will die", which is not the same as no "I will die"-> no "meaning" (what I said). Again, while you are right, the contrapositive is always true if the original conditionnal proposition is true, the proposition i mentionned isnt (that was my whole point). Its a subtle mistake many people (including neel in this interview and you apparently) make when they are starting out. That is why when starting out with propositions, its always good to construct a simple truth table and see if it works.

Not really. We're all in a simulation. So don't worry too much anymore. This is a game

As soon as you figure out how to restart a level you will tell me right ?
