I don't think that lack of productivity as a society is what drives our suffering. There is enough stuff. The work you are talking about, that we are supposed to do well in our 70s, is just a means to determine how we distribute our st

Somehow my opponents nonsense words kept beating my nonsense words. Even though they were within 1 length of each other. Can I see a rule summary? I did the tutorial but I don't want to do that again.

So this guy had all the opportunities, choose to spend his time to herd clicks for some big corps, finds out it's an empty life and suggests to do things like "but a plane ticket to Panama" to get unstuck. Sometimes your ther

Nice scenery could be all we're lacking. Isn't an aircraft pilot just a bus driver with nicer scenery? A tenured professor a teacher with nicer scenery? A corner office an office garden with nicer scenery? What makes a house expen

Pay per usage seams fair, but its usually a regressive tax. Joe Schmoe who needs to drive for his work or small business shelling out 15 bucks per day hits different than Joe Apple not even noticing this expense while driving from the jewel

You can do it but don't tell them you're doing it. Either they don't bite, nothing needs to be done, or you hook them. Don't tell them, but now you know what works. Next, educate them through normal channels, or change s

I'm sure you could handle nights with little sleep fine in your early twenties. Being up all night. Dealing with childish drama. Vomit.

What you are looking for is called the secretary problem [0]. This states that in a search like yours, you can determine beforehand how often you are willing to press "another", and after 37% of attempts, you pick the first one th

I have been paying more attention and ours loves head rests. So maybe they don't understand how to make or move them, he definitely prefers them. Disputing the original claim, or dogs differ too much from primates.

For me just jotting down four words in any notes app or email draft contains enough information to pick it back up later. I eventually settled on a shortcut on my phone's home screen that opened up an email to my work email. So all I h

Wake and sleep, workout and rest, prospers in balance. But this also means you can't just hang out in the showers and expect solutions. You have to work on it, then rest.

I think PG addresses this subtlety where he says: "when you're young it's easier to know what you are interested in, than what people need." This inverts as you get older.

Well first there was a human programmer who made a lot of non-programmer jobs obsolete -- plenty of people complained but they just had to re-school themselves.

My dog loves pillows. But he doesn't move them. If he's laying down, and a pillow-like object is near, he'll use it. But if the sun moves, he'll move, without the pillow.

Would you prefer a Sofa As A Service? Our cheap ikea couch keeps lasting, preventing us from buying a nice, new one. We can't throw it out of it's not broken. It is long known that companies who sell good quality products go out o

No, I set it one for each device, then I never touch it again. So I'm am the third group that you doubt exists. I don't want to fiddle with it. I read text on my phone, I have a preferred size to read, I shouldn't have to cha

I set the text size on my mobile browser. You'll understand as you get older and your devices keep getting more pixels.

Personally I think when I'm in doubt and doing the circling you describe, I'm closer to the truth then when I think my arguments are water tight. Too often I've been so sure, only to be thrown off later. I also think that mak

I think you're looking for the Secretary problem. And the solution is almost what you said, but instead of N/10 it's a bit over N/3.

The more the initial fade of AI assisted work sets in, and given the inherent vagueness and unpredictability of managing, I'm eagerly awaiting not my job, but my bosses job being replaced by AI. There's no need for exactness, but
