   I think the two key things to consider is that: (1) humans are quite good at getting accustomed to their current situation, and (2) these degraded living situations generally happen gradually. There's no hard cutoff where one might sud

   > If being in the office conforms to the interest of the capital class, it implies that WFH is inherently less efficient. Not quite. It implies it affords the working class more power than the capital class is comfortable with.

   And the camera's have been better for over a decade at thing point. I have to imagine people are just willfully antagonistic to them for some reason. How in god's name are you going to see a kid directly behind you, below your tru

   It'll get worse. There will be even more situations where people will be forced to talk to a computer rather than a human.

   Company's only exist so far as state law allows them to operate within them. It's not forcing them to do something after some point in time, it's a requirement to be a business at all.

    Personally, I'm impressed with just how unimpressed I am. Or rather, rocket launches feel like they really are becoming more and more commoditized. To the point that routine trips to the moon doesn't feel like a crazy future.

    Your progression is basically the exact same progression as things like Wikipedia, and web search in ggeneral. So, I guess we dont need to hypothesis. Just look around and see how its played out. How many people take the first result on Goo

    Its different because corporate workers will bend over backwards to do anything except speak normally in a corporate context. Because, for whatever reason, thats what corporate culture has developed into.

    Only having 4-5 hours of effective cognitive energy per day is exactly why I would want fewer work days and more off days. Because that "8 hours every thing else" is not the same as the 8 hours of work, you've already blown

    It's definitely not insurmountable. It just takes a little bit of inbox maintenance. Pressing unsubscribe and report when I have spam in the inbox, 5 seconds here, 5 seconds there. I still get spam, but it's minuscule compared to

    I feel like at the scale of an arcology, there isn't really much of a meaningful difference between there being a fire blocking your escape in the massive structure vs, say, fire blocking you escape in a mall. You're either comple

    Unless the new company ends up more competitive than the pre-PE company, does it matter? Thats not a good outcome, thats just a period of bad time between 2 good times.

    When people talk about being behind or ahead the developed world, they are talking about the average person's availability of food, housing, internet, AC, transportation, healthcare, education, culture, day to day life, etc. Not centur

    Inflation adjusted, those particular specs would be much cheaper. At least prior to recent price changes due to AI demand. You can definitely go much higher if you really go for TOP of the line though.
