I don’t have a bug fix story yet, but I don’t think I just speak for myself when I say my biggest (non-x-risk) fear is becoming and achieving nothing compared to my potential.
I also generally place great trust in my future self (as my rationality gradient has been positive for quite some time) and firm trust in my immediate past self (allowing me to precommit to emotionally fraught decisions, like a difficult breakup, wherein my in-the-moment regret might otherwise overwhelm a sound judgment).
I’m sorry I couldn’t answer the main question, but I’m definitely appreciating this sequence so far.
Thanks for the support! I have a favorite quote about achieving nothing compared to my potential, from the extraordinary Ursula Le Guin who recently passed away. :’(
Brunoy smiled; they walked on a little way, and Itale broke out afresh, “I admire your patience so much, Egen, - I get cross with them—How do you stay patient?”
“I have nothing but patience to fill the gap between my own ideals and my actual achievement.”
