Submitted!

I really liked the questions last year related to if you had $x, how happy would you be? I know I missed the 1 week comment period for this survey, but Yvain, could you put those questions in again next year??

cheers

So you treat humans as the only entities that count morally as this is the closest Schelling point?

I think you should recognise you have a finer grained decision tree than this. Think about the difference between swatting a mosquito that could bite you, and harming your neighbour's prize chicken, both animals but different moral statuses.

Hi man. I am new to LW and Utilitarianism in general, and MLP are like ugggggggggh to me, but I read the story and

Loved it.

It is original and a great mix of humor and hard SF. Good work with the editing, the polishing is showing through!
