I didn’t know that was a feature
I don’t think you understand the objection that I and I assume many others have had to him. His objections are very non-random/motivated and this only becomes apparent after repeated interactions with him. I like having scrupulous friends, and even more I like having scrupulous friends who aren’t too burned out from addressing non central objections to actually discuss the ideas that they want to discuss. Scrupulous people are nerd snipeable. So I clear the area of snipers when I can.
I don’t think I should try to run big decisions on this small CNS unless forced to.
Oops, yes
Not sure, most of the citable stuff comes from the book personality disturbances by iirc a criminal psychologist (pathological cases are now extreme and more illustrative, though that can sometimes be deceptive obv.)
WRT NPD, my understanding is that, yes, high arousal/reactions, and then additionally these are suppressed through environmental conditioning, leading the well known NPD masking phenomenon.
I’m not sure. It’s a matter of hormonal regulation and unlike the pop sci take on hormones, they are very multi-function molecules within the body that are affected by a lot of things. For instance, though I sleep on a good schedule now, I still wake up more often than average, and I suspect this is due to a vasopressin deficiency or some other malfunction due to having mild forms of 9 out the 11 symptoms of such. No idea why.
They did work for me. Durably enough that I don’t have to maintain them strictly. And that was after trying many other schemes.
For some people becoming less of a people pleaser is an important part of their healing.

substantially more difficult and possible to injure yourself relative to cap lifter IME.
I’ve found that one time costs have huge returns due to biases against them. Personally and interpersonally.
You can release the vacuum on metal lids with a cap lifter
I think the easiest way to engage with the circularity problem is to regard computation and expected value of computation estimates as occurring on the same level of abstraction as everything else, including the expected losses from unknowns/uncertainty.
Did they? Death rate of even ww2 vs death rate of agrarian societies?
you may appreciate Descartes trying to record his thoughts on similar https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Rules_for_the_Direction_of_the_Mind
It is worth changing everything about your life to get better sleep if necessary IME. Also most people I speak with about it have tried lots of complex schemes but nigh refuse to eat at the same time everyday and get sunlight as early in the morning as possible (not actually logistically challenging, just step outside for 5 minutes).
A few: Bad people will often tell you they are bad, pretty explicitly, you aren’t clever for seeing nuance. “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” -Maya Angelou
On persistence over intelligence: “It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.” — Albert Einstein
On favoring complex approaches that best show off intelligence: “In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few.” — Shunryu Suzuki
“It is remarkable how much long-term advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent.” — Charlie Munger
