Actually, no it's not. Should we stop driving cars because we might die? No, so just settle down a bit. Geez!

I find interesting to ask if we should stop dying because we might live.

Perhaps you should start to consider that people, how you work together with them and how you treat them, might just possibly be more important than money.

Pardon me, if I've misunderstood you but it seems to me that you're implying that you can't choose both treat people right and care about the financial wellbeing of yourself and your family at the same time. These are not mutually exclusive things.

Feel free to keep making up arguments like that, to cover yourself -- but don't expect an invitation for dinner.

[^]Quote: Hanrahan was the lead architect of the team that created the complex software known as RenderMan, which lets filmmakers turn images into photorealistic animations that can be blended with real-life scenes. Rendering determines which computer-generated images are visible on the screen for every frame, assigns them colors, and draws them. It brings an animation “to life.” In 2001 RenderMan became the first piece of software to win an Oscar. It has been used in 44 of the last 47 films nominated for an Academy Award in the Visual Effects category. Hanrahan later returned to academia and is now a professor at Stanford University.
Catmull’s contribution: From 1970, Catmull was part of the University of Utah’s ARPA program, where he came up with the first method to display curved surfaces on a computer. Up to that point, computer-generated images were all straight lines and polygons. While at Utah in 1972, Catmull created a short film called “A Computer Animated Hand,” which is one of the earliest examples of computer animation.

I hate abbreviations. It doesn't help that english is not my mother tongue, and that I'm not overly familiar with US, UK, or other english based pop culture.
Thankfully there are websites for that, but those are'nt often helful, when you find that a simple abbreviation can have dozens of meanings. See TIL - Definition by AcronymFinder[^]

It's not an acronym I recognise, but if I had to guess based on the context it might be "today I learned".
But if someone uses unrecognisable acronyms they probably don't want you to understand what they mean.

That would make sense.
I've never seen that acronym before though, and since it's not related to code/programming, I dislike it being used here.
