    I love and hate this. Mostly love.

    This reads a little overly pessimistic to me. Sure there is a lot of bad, but the ratios presented here seem way off. In most contexts, people are overwhelmingly good. It’s just a small percentage of bad actors that spoil it for everyone.

      And yet the odds are not always in our favor as they keep stacking up - e.g. if nothing bad occurs at 1pm, nor 2pm, nor 3pm, etc., then the dice continues to be rolled. A thousand beautiful days (or thirty thousand?), but in one of those… well even then, it is no guarantee. Either one way or the other. Time marches inexorably on.
