Great, now I will never be able to read Marcus Aurelius again without associating it with this satire.

  Fan of Ryan Holiday ? ;-) I’m always wondering : is this guy just a marketing scam or does he worth listening to ?

This is my all time favorite video to show people > “Check robinhood. All red, just as I expected.”

The videos on that channel are so good that they're painful to watch, when you realize how closely it matches the life you're living. This one is my favorite (or "least favorite" depending on how hard it hits on any given day): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYvhC_RdIwQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYvhC_RdIwQ I feel like the people doing that channel could write a very effective modern Office Space.

  I watched that multiple times after delivering a big feature I had to crunch on late last year. Of course my reward was a”meets expectations “ modest raise.

  The most recent one, "Leadership Sync", pops into my head in pretty much every meeting I've had in the last two weeks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RAMRukKqQg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RAMRukKqQg

    I instead use words like "meet", "create", or other concrete and discrete <verb-action> and try to otherwise avoid the managerial douche buzzwords IRL. I submit it's unnecessary and pointlessly toolish to use such phrasing and lingo. People who speak that way deserve judgment; it's lazy and the buzzwords are variations on low entropy / meaningless vagaries.

  it is insane to me that this channel is being discussed today because literally 2 days ago it was recommended to me on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8OnoxKotPQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8OnoxKotPQ

  I honestly thought it was satire until the comments showed otherwise. Eat clean… cocktails. Hustle by taking long drives.
  - d0mine 4y ago
    And the rest? What is wrong with keeping a schedule, running, resistance training, eating healthy? Also, long drives are mentioned in the context of "unwind after work" (I see nothing obviously wrong with it). Alcohol is bad, avoid it if you can but no social life may be worse.
    - tass 4y ago
      None of that is inherently bad. He talks a lot of working hard to maintain multiple brands/companies while everything shown is pure vanity, which is why I thought it was satire. I don’t know anything about what he does but in reality people don’t have time to work out twice a day, take long relaxing drives, meet their friends, eat healthy and do 5x the work of an average CEO.

  2 Years later I still have trouble watching this one, hits too close to home for an old job I had.
  - epolanski 4y ago
    Reminds me when I had to sort some payments FE-wise which was a very trivial array sort (there was at most 50 payments per page, nothing impactful performance-wise) on a json array which had a timestamp value, but CTO got involved with this triviality for some reason and started blabbering of how business logic had to be on the backend. I literally had a working feature branch in 10 minutes, but it ended up being a 6 weeks job involving architects, devops, 3 backend engineers to have a microservice implemented in GO (which basically no backender knew) to handle those payments sorting. I'm not kidding. I didn't got a promotion to staff engineer or architect few months later because CTO was fixated with "micro services experts" which basically consisted of anyone putting Go on their CV and having an AWS certification. The guys hired were so sweet, they would spend like months repeating in the daily every day they were doing analysis and understanding our architecture, just to produce after 8 weeks a pdf of few pages with their in-depth analysis of Kafka vs RabbitMQ which was basically a summary of their landing pages lol. I love the information economy.

After listening to "Tools of Titans" by Tim Ferris, this video accurately captures all the things it implies a hustler ought to do in a day. Except the actual advice is probably to do 2-3x more affirmations and crunches and smoothies and upside down hangs and meditation and so on.
