I agree with the above advice but it’s not immediately actionable for someone in OPs situation. You have given a how but it’s hard to do without a why. Burnout and lethargy are due to both physical and mental health factors that feed into

Coders aren't coding all the time or even the majority of the time. It's going to be a while before an AI can take part in a meeting between 2 project managers wrangle out a spec that makes everyone happy and then negotiate with t

Yes the discussion of productivity is often totally divorced from any questions of social utility, morality or meaning. "You show me a guy laying around doing nothing all day and I'll show you someone who's not causing any tr

The people at the top are deeply cynical of ideology. They fill the ranks of middle management with true believers and play their own games.

Who regulates the regulator ? If it is the government then it goes back to the people being aware of their interests and not allowing themselves to be manipulated. Which is never going to be the case.

I have my own take on the issue pieced together from my own reading and work experience. There are two kinds of burnout and they can reinforce and overlap. The first is physical burnout. This is when your body just gives out because you don

I read it more charitably. The article is talking about the importance of looking out for yourself first so you can be there for everyone else in your life. Including family and work colleagues.

There is no technology in which an eternal edge has been maintained. China has a billion people and trillions to throw at the problem. The laws of physics are the same for all. Once you know something works it’s only a matter of investing c

Well the suggestion here is that everyone uses eugenics to turn everyone into sociopaths. It’s cooperation that keeps the world going with periodic oscillations around it.

Yes and that choice is ideally made freely and without coercion. Not following the diktat of some geek bearing equations. It’s very arrogant to assume that some central planning can replace the distributed computation of millions of people
