This is a lazy argument that could apply to any art or leisure activity. Counterpoint (and shameless plug) – NFTs are one of the best bundles ever created. They combine: 1. A display of wealth. 2. An elite social network. 3. A signal of goo

Not OP, but in one sentence: YC will give you an additional $375k now, in exchange for the promise to give them equity at the same terms you give other investors when you raise your next round of funding. The criticism here is that you need

Actually building something helps a ton: either a project at work, or through hobbies like woodworking, writing, art, comedy, etc. And the geographic hack is great advice. I moved to a new city following a breakup a few years back and it di

When the Dilbert comics become all too real. While you may find it difficult to get things done, the bureaucracy will leave you with a lot of time on your hands. With that time, either: 1. Pour the energy you would have put into work into s

There's something to be said here for the Lindy effect: the longer something has survived, the longer its remaining life expectancy. This is why the "decline of New York" at the beginning of COVID was so overblown. NYC has lo
