I’m ok the bull is dead? Maybe it calmed the author down but not me. A much better punchline is “Im ok, I got into a car accident, I hit a bull and wrecked the car”

Poor executives! If only there had been some way to know employees would be unhappy about it /s On another note, I found this note curious - this would imply that offices should be 70-80% full not half full. May be a bias in their sur

Your tag line is sleep better tonight. So I can’t sleep. I go thru the hoops. Then you want to charge me, for something that may not work? I would prefer give me something of value - one tip to try tonight. If it works, I’ll be back tomorr

Absolutely. My wife also has it and talk therapy was not enough. She’s now on anti depressants so I’m thrilled theres a new drug specifically for post partum.

Wow that’s actually better than I expected. The Seinfeld show was awkward and clearly AI. The scene with the pig was actually funny - the AI only tells racist jokes because it’s trained on the internet. Assuming AI came up with that, that’s

Are they losing money though? They pay a minimum wage person or two, to upsell you: nicer car, insurance, gps, blah blah. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a profit center for them

I didn’t see an attack on rank and file away at all. This article was squarely aimed at Google’s later leaders ie Sundar. He’s a peacetime general and he missed the coming war. He also has continued, like past leaders, a strategy of lettin

I think this is a half baked approach. It sounds nice. Think of something worthwhile. Do it. Repeat. Awesome. There’s two main issues I see 1) there’s no connectedness. You could spend your life swirling in different directions instead of

Assume for a moment all farmers continue to work. Sellers are incentivized to charge as much as the market will bear. Suppose you have a market of 1 person and he has $10 to spend on pork per month. You as the pork producer will charge $10

Not really. Lung cancer is mostly due to smoking or radon. So don’t smoke and get your house tested. Outside of that, it’s a crap shoot. My mom in law didn’t have either risk factor. PET scans can pick up but each one exposes you to radi

This is sad. Scary too - That area is ok crime wise so seems like a freak accident. Or possibly an argument gone wrong. Lot of people here railing on homeless people - police don’t have any suspects.

This makes sense. I think hard in my job, and by the end of the day I end up taking the night east - long dinner, a workout, talk with wife. I have many personal “to dos” I’d like to do, but it has been really challenging for me to consiste

This article is good but imho misses a big potential issue: the manager’s perception of performance. Managers, especially newer ones can have lots of biases. Someone you think is underperforming may actually be doing ok, they’re just not ap

OpenAI? He’s been playing long game, working at this since 2015. That’s a long time to be playing without much of a payoff, but it’s all come to fruition now. That to me shows a lot of leadership ability.
