From an anecdata standpoint, I would say this describes the mentality of ~20% of my past colleagues, and it didn't particularly correlate with their productivity. Inversely, the not-faking-it true believers bring their own problems, li

I basically agree that most complexity lies in correctly formulating ideas -- though depending on language, there is a great deal of time and effort wasted on the overhead of expressing those ideas. For example, Javascript's stdlib has

My perception is that people on the 'consumer' side of parasocial relationships do feel understood, and that that feeling is their main motivation for taking part in the relationship. The feeling is no less real for being the pro

Personally, I'm convinced that parasocial relationships are outcompeting social relationships. You can risk your ego putting yourself out there in real life, or you can let a recommendation algorithm serve you content that gives you t
