Yep. Bingo. I want to interact with human beings otherwise my mental health tanks. I don't want to work remote and I even less so want to work in an empty office. If the office is empty I'm not going there because its twice as dep

I definitely like being able to wfh some of the time and I think having to work from office some of the time is a good compromise. When people aren't forced to go people don't go. Even i don't go, and i hate wfh all week. Bec

What about all of us that don't have children. who need social interaction outside the house to be sane? who have just started our careers and need friendly colleagues around us who will support us? who have been cast out of adolescenc

Bro nobody is spending 100% of their time being productive. we have to have transitional time. time going from one place to another is a net benefit because living in one box is anti-human. for me the cost of the time is so so worth it beca

Yeah I hate how the wierd basement dwellers are telling us how to handle our mental health. 99% of humans are not basement dwellers who don't like seeing people. People are becoming more socially awkward because our society is forgetti

No. theres a reason why humans have always had routines that are agreed upon by society. We are social creatures. We are not made to be individualistic islands with all the responsibility to perfectly dial in our mental health ourselves.

I agree. I lose energy levels and general lust for life when I don't have a strong reason to leave the house.

Don't worry I moved to a company where people have to come in 2-3 times a week and the culture is great and I'm not depressed any more. It works much better than any other setup I've tried. My problem with the extraversion&#x

by helboi4 3y ago
Nah mate, you pulled that one out of nowhere. It's pretty widely understood our mental health issues are due to lonliness and social isolation and social media (fake virtual socialising) mate.

by helboi4 3y ago
1) I'm not a robot. Humans exist in physical space and it is necessary for our mental health to see other people in person. We cannot get our social battery filled by virtual interaction alone. 2) Otther people don't participate i

by helboi4 3y ago
Yeah, I'm not extremely extroverted either which is an issue because trying to make sure I reach the minimum amount of socialising I need to not tank my mental health is quite hard for me when I'm expected to do it 100% by myself.

by helboi4 3y ago
Yes, your story is an isolated and minor anecdote and my story is a massive social ill that I am furious that older people want to overlook and then wonder why younger peoples mental health and productivity is getting constantly worse. So I

Honestly my fairly tech illiterate mother is constantly complaining about how google is full of ads and irrelevant information. I'm not sure that people don't notice. It's just they know there's nothing better.

That's an insanely specific situation that could be remedied by getting your seat moved. Loads of offices have hot desks these days anyway. What I'm talking about - young people having no chance to build a network of peers because

No I don't want to work if i never see human beings, i have no connection to my team and I'm deeply depressed because I am a young single person who doesn't have a family waiting for me at home

Bro what sort of dystopiian offices have you been working in. I've never had that experience. People are always somewhat intersting and like to actually talk. There are some off days but it's never like that. And never ever have I

Or you can be in the office and speak to people. I've never been in an office for a professional job where chatting, popping down to the canteen, stepping outside for a bit etc are not completely normal things to do and not frowned upo

I would also raise the point that actually having relationships with your colleagues and team can make work a lot more meaningful and make you more motivated. It is impossible to do that if you don't meet them. The idea that corporate

I agree with your example paragraph. I think it is only beneficial for highly motivated senior engineers with families to work remotely. As a junior who doesn't know what I'm doing half of the time and feels demotivated without su

Yeah I honestly wish the book was not labeled "for babies" because I think it would be fun for my 9 year old nephew but it 1) will probably offend a primary school aged child to be called a baby, you know how they are 2) it would

yep i agree. unless the book is a stream of text that doesn't require layout factors it is better with a pdf. I'd rather manually move around the page. If the book is just a stream of text type of book then epub is of course bette

I used to use GameMaker when I was exactly 9 so I would definitely recommend it. Scratch always seemed like it was not at all made to acheive any sort of playable game but GameMaker has a low barrier to entry but can make real stuff. I woul

And do you not think that the problem with the gang giving you way more money is caused by minimum wages being well below the living wage (so legal work keeps you in poverty), social mobility being low (so working hard never gets you an imp

I think you would need to prove to me that most of these crimes are poor impulse control in everyday activities rather than large life decisions that most people don't do when they have other oppurtunities - like joining gangs.

Yeah that sounds ridiculous to me. Yes I can understand that high interest rates come from periods of iresponsible borrowing by capitalists who have become complacent due to low interest rates continuing for a long time. However, to act lik

Yeah even interior walls here are mainly brick. Dry walls only exist in conversions where walls have been added that did not exist in the original construction. Even then, making thin walls like that is highly frowned upon and seen as a bit

The issue is nobody is convincing me that being unable to use context and sensory input properly would be advantageous in our current society. Because it wouldn't. And that's the end of that.
