Is that a feature of an app you use? If yours, which app? I don't see it in the web interface.

Not if it’s measured with a fractional part.

In that case I'd expect the wording to be "time lived", not "number of seconds lived".

I don't think the time someone is born is registered that precisely anywhere, so it would probably be very hard to get anyone to agree on it.

Because the only imaginable positive outcome is appeasing everyone of course.

How about trying to minimize harm to as many people as possible?

Chances are you shared that position with someone else.

Edit: There are 86400 seconds in a day while globally on average about 362,000 babies are born per day.

That is nowhere near the border. If your kid rather bleeds out than facing you because they got some blood on the carpet you're far in abusive territory

Before the rise of liberal democracies there where no billionaires though. If they never had existed the world might look different now.

We actually have Indian numerals, we just call them Arabic because those are the people we copied them from. That was more than a millennium ago though, so how is it relevant to OP's question?

Well, most of the world is actually under authoritarian regimes and not liberal democracies.

Not the parts where 90% of the research and development for our current information technology was done.

You're just assuming this is anti-male, without any context it might as well be a complaint about lack of sex education.

Even then, rich parents can pay for better education and tend to have better connections. Doing it that way would mostly just fuel nepotism in companies and encourage people to find loopholes to pass on most of their wealth before they die.

Lemmy has been nothing but news about this guy for the last week.

The nice thing about Lemmy is that that depends on what you subscribe to.
