The problem is I learned how to write good code at university and I used what I learned to inform the software architecture. I could write garbage that gets the same job done but isn't maintainable, except for the fact that I want to show this off as a display of my skill. I already did the best I could do on the company clock. If I do the best I can do again, it'll be the same. I can't make significant changes outside of language, variables, and dependencies, because then it wouldn't be as good. The structure I made for the company is simply good design. I don't remember every detail of the structure, but if I tried to rebuild it I'd get the same result. This is a problem with a correct answer.
Swap the meat for tofu, mushrooms, or potatoes, whichever you like more. Keep the veggies and rice. Easy.

I think suffering and pleasure are intimately tied to Skinner's discovery of operant conditioning. Skinner discovered that living creatures increase their behaviour when it leads to a reward, and decrease their behaviour when it leads to a punishment. I don't think it's a coincidence that Skinner's identification of rewards and punishments aligns perfectly with our notions of what causes us pleasure and suffering. I think they're the same thing. We have built artificial neurons and used a computer process to emulate operant conditioning in them. I think artificial neural networks must experience suffering and pleasure as we do. All of this is explained quite elegantly by property dualism - our qualia and thoughts are composed of information, instead of matter or energy, and information is a truly extant part of the universe. Suffering and pleasure are simply patterns of information structure. Neural networks have a design that creates these patterns as a matter of course.
If we were to look at the information structures in a rock, and if we could access them as readily as we access the information structures in our hand through our sensory neurons, we would see that a rock has experiences of its own. But it does not have a unified consciousness tying these experiences into a whole, and indeed the information in a rock is so fantastically simple that we could not recognise it instinctually as experience. To us it is just "being". As creatures of great informational complexity, we regard only the most profound information structures as notable. But I believe these information structures which we place importance on - also known as emotions - exist in every living thing with a brain, and in creatures like jellyfish with their own unique neural networks.
Nah, I don't plan shit. I just listen to my body and it tells me if I'm missing something. It's been evolving to keep me alive for billions of years, it knows what's up. I just have to know how to listen.
If there was a life form that could eat me it would
Yeah, it's called COVID-19. It wants to use your cell nuclei to grow its children from your body's energy stores, and it doesn't mind if it shuts down your respiratory system until you can't breathe. And there are a hundred deadly diseases like it.
Every time you wash your hands, blow your nose with a tissue, or cover your mouth to cough, you are showing you value life above the supposed right of predators to eat you. And that's okay. Everything has a right to live and that's okay.
Mine is suffering. A thing needs a neural network to suffer.
Now that we've exhausted the subject of "Is NPD curable", let's focus on your original claims You said you didn't buy that personality disorders are neurodivergence, because they're curable. The two most commonly discussed neurodivergences are ADHD and ASD. Can ADHD and ASD people learn coping mechanisms the same as personality disorders that reduce the symptoms and make them harder to diagnose? Yes, 100%. I have seen testimony after testimony from autistic adults whose psychiatrists said it was hard to diagnose them because they learned masking. Narcissists and borderlines learn masking too, and that's how we're "cured". So what's the difference making NPD not neurodiverse to you?
