There is a certain type of tyranny to the mindset in this blog post. The constant pressure to perform for an imagine audience, the "self worth through the prism of others" trap etc. More chilling is the dismissing of others that do not "perform". I presume the author doesn't fall for any of these and is happy. But for many it would be a dark pattern to follow. I come from a long line of tinkerers that have sat in damp sheds playing with junk. Testing themselves, their tools and often others patience. There is an inherent beauty and calmness to this. This has value and shouldn't be dismissed.
