This is also my go-to. It's dead simple and just works. Tbh, the last thing I want to spend my time doing is tinkering with my personal "network architecture". I'm sure I'd manage to fuck it up at some point when

You bring up a good point, even though I enjoyed drinking / partying with a startup I worked at in college, an experience I wouldn't trade for anything - at 26 I draw serious boundaries between work "outings" / soci

I've observed this too. There's certainly a threshold to break out of my own thought / reality bubble. However, I've caught myself exploiting the "positives" of this, in that I still only have so much social

Hmm, maybe I suck at communication in the context of team discourse? I've never really had a great example or explanation of "ownership" outside of a bizarre corporate lingo form at Amazon. I guess I'm curious as to wh
