It’s nihilism if you didn’t run a risk assessment at all because you know you’re already pwned.

What if, as a result of a risk assessment, I've learned that I'm already pwned? Nihilism or rationalism?

    That’s the rationalism to nihilism pipeline in action.

      Sounds like not being nihilistic is irrational.
