   Technology can capture energy, and the amount of energy we capture increases every year.

   The opposite. Participating benefits your career. Curious what you think about this: Say there's no company sponsorship or involvement. You get invited to happy hour or a round of golf with the higher-ups completely on your own dime. I

   I'm glad you just came right out and said you're anti-human, most people beat around that particular landmine of a bush.

   I've always had these events outside work hours. We get paid to work. After work, the company is buying us drinks but not paying us to drink them. Where's the problem?

   It is not a "fact" that climate change will cause our extinction. Point me to one serious report that says that. Your nonstop doomerism has half the kids believing that absolute lie.

   Yeah, you're too deep in it. The natural rate of wildfire is about 5x higher than current levels, despite what breathless journalists will push. Check out this chart [1] before modern forest "management" kicked in. Modern con

   It's exceptionally relevant. Excuse my French, but this constant doomerism is really fucking up the kids. >"More than half of the 16- to 25-year-olds in the Lancet survey said they believe humanity is doomed. And close to 40 pe

    Look I'm not saying you need to stay out drinking until 10pm but team-building is important to any job, especially if you're a leader, and much of that team cohesiveness happens outside of work hours. It's not too surprising

    Please go ahead and make it at home. Like many others, I want this to be true badly but my BS detectors are blaring

    I don't think company-sponsored social events are designed to exclude non-social types, they're just for the benefit of social employees. Of course, this is coming from someone who really enjoys drinking on the company dime

    Recognize that your most focused mindstate is first thing in the morning. Do tasks that require the longest attention span right then. Don't turn your phone on until they're done. Generally don't keep your phone in your pocke

    I appreciate your optimism. A lot of people point out that education hasn't changed meaningfully in hundreds of years. Professors, long lectures, textbook readings, homework and exams. I am curious if this trend will be the catalyst fo

    Thanks for mentioning that book. I am trying to decide if it's worth reading. The negative reviews agree with the main premise of the book but say it's short and superficial. Is there information in there worth reading beyond the

    I am confused. Are you arguing that this is a thing that happens? If so, I'd like to see any shred of evidence whatsoever. On the other hand, we know that governments do this sort of thing all the time.

    Or perhaps people just have different values than you? Perhaps they are fully aware of the cancer risk and have full agency over their decisions yet still prefer to indulge themselves?

    I also have ADHD. That doesn't mean we're not in control of our lives. I'd suggest you don't let your ailments define you.

    I am somewhat mind-blown by that government waste adage. While I supposed that in some technical sense it could be true, I would like to have a blunt conversation with anyone who believes government waste is anywhere near parity with the co

    I think that is reasonable. The alternative is that all 80,000 Meta employees have their professional reputations tarnished by something that happened a decade ago that they probably had nothing to do with

    What makes you think that is better?

    I'd start by removing the subsidies and special rules around student loans. That makes colleges compete on price again which puts downward pressure on tuition.

    You're putting a lot of words in my mouth and I don't believe you're arguing in good faith. I never said it was easy, and I never even said you can get out of it at all. I simply said you're better off believing one thin
