Original Summary

Dear fellow HNers: I said my account has a max karma of 32767, and I&#x27;m about to hit that limit. So, for my final post, I&#x27;d like to share some of my individual aspirations:<p> Be honest. We shouldn&#x27;t lie, manipulate, dark-pattern, etc. We should invest towards a society that can trust each other, and the first step is our own behavior.<p> Be reliable. We should make things that work, follow through on promises, represent prospects in good faith, etc.<p> Be helpful. We should help colleagues, random strangers, and society in general. Not maneuver to exploit them.<p> Be smart. We&#x27;re not as smart as we think we are, and we are often dumb. Especially when it comes to topics in which we actually have little experience. Also when we&#x27;re overconfident about something we &quot;know&quot;.<p> Be humble. We can make mistakes about even the things we know best, and we should always be learning.<p> Be constructive. Others make mistakes, too, and we should help them when they do, as we&#x27;d want them to help us or our friends&amp;family, when we make mistakes.<p> Be decent. No one person deserves a billion dollars of humanity&#x27;s wealth. Few people agreed to the rules that enable that: it&#x27;s not a game that we are winning; it&#x27;s collusion against the masses, which some people hop onto. Also applies to some smaller sums.<p> Be sane. If we find ourselves with way more money than our share, then we say, &quot;oops, how embarrassing&quot;, and spread it back around, to everyone. We shouldn&#x27;t be like the billionaire who instead decides all the poors or immigrants or feminists or trans people or artists or kindergarten teachers or whoever are <i>somehow shortchanging billionaires</i>.<p>* Be introspective. See <i>sane</i>, above.<p>That&#x27;s it for now. See you around. I&#x27;ll continue to be in the world and in tech industry, but it&#x27;s time for me to take an HN break. If I come back, it might as well be a new account.
