Nothing like another rich person coming in telling you how making money isn't the goal and not important to them. What's really important is idea sex! "Just become a master at that one thing, and then become a master at anoth

Didn't see your comment when I posted mine, but I feel much the same. It's just far more interesting and satisfying. Telling someone to walk on a treadmill to help their focus is like telling them to watch paint dry. But team spor

The science behind ADHD medication is far more established than things like depression. Fear mongering about drugs has led us not to use them for fears of addictions. Alcohol is legal and yet we discourage the use of drugs that may help peo

Those have never kept me engaged. What does is playing a sport. Playing pick up soccer gives me a far better workout than lifting heavy objects and grinding on a treadmill, even at high intensity levels. It's easy to say do these exerc

I think everyone deals with it differently and has different severity. ADHD has different variants as well. Personally have it, and my "creativity" in my mind is off the charts. When I occasionally have hyperfocus I can make somet

Neither have we experienced a true AI, and none of the gains in the last 50 years have brought us anything near it, only more advanced computing ability and "trick" AI. We just assume technology will improve exponentially based on

Yes, that comment was ridiculously out of touch. That's fantastic you have a safety net with your parents, with amazing credit, that can borrow at good rates, at any time. What about the people paying double digit interest rates to get

If Americans are truly NOT saving (as opposed to just not using savings accounts): Yes, being judgmental without knowing the whole story isn't a good thing, but that misses the point: people are choosing to spend instead of save-and ma

I'm not quite sure what your point is. Yes, there is always something better that only the wealthy may afford-but that doesn't mean the baseline level of care for most people can't be improved. People don't expect the wo

First, Detroit isn't a closed system. Yes, those jobs are gone in Detroit-but people moved elsewhere. Almost every major manufacturing industry is now automated, we don't have to go to the future to see the effects of automation.

Is there any real evidence of this that's not from conservative talk radio? It's amazing how workers, who got fired by the hundreds of thousands, voluntarily gave up pensions only to lose their jobs, dealt with numerous health iss

I do a mix. Some days I like working remotely. Others I will go into the office. I think more than anything I just want freedom. I don't want to be locked into 8-5. Some days I want to work late and do stuff during the day (yardwork, a

Lots of problems come up in meetings that you can't adequately prepare for. Clear agendas don't solve the problem of a bad agenda. Meetings can be valuable but not nearly as valuable as peer to peer communication in the office. Me

Some CBS news affiliate brought him on to talk about the Epipen situation. Honestly, he's very candid, and he says things people don't want to hear. Sometimes he says things that are just wrong and inconsiderate, but other times h

Startups fail all the time, many with people working endless amounts of hours. I wouldn't go using that as an argument-clearly work hours != success. It may to a certain extent but clearly working insane hours can also be a waste of ti

And I have found that tired employees make huge mistakes on customer critical systems. I have also found that some people are extremely successful working insane hours. They have the capacity to, either it's their personality or they&#
