Episode notes
Nosi experience machine is a great thought experiment, part of an against heathenism. If you think the best life possible involves some difficulty, you'll have difficulty,. You'll have risk, but the very best life you would live it plug you into the machine. Nosi's conclusion here is to say we don't want experiences in and of themselves.
