Great article. I def experienced this new form of burnout. I’ve gotten use to working with AI systems to produce code, mainly the velocity of code production. It took me four months to develop an intuition of how to…

You completely missed the crux of the story. I'm speaking specifically to the example given by the author. He was approached by an engineer that saw a critical flaw in the software that goes beyond simple "backlog…
I don't see things the way you do. You look at gaining recognition for good ideas as a zero sum game that requires self promotion. If you develop a good original idea that solves a problem and it gets implemented, you…

I was wondering what preclinical models meant. It would be more accurate to call it animal models. I read roughly 3% - 5% of compounds move from preclinical cancer therapies to fda approval. That’s a tough success rate.
I’ve personally found meditation, exercise and healthy food intake are more effective for self regulation and coping with tough emotions over medication and supplements. Each human being is unique, as is the recipe for…
I too am amazed by the detail. I see things now, that I never saw before, in areas I'm intimately familiar with.

Very funny! I believe the concept of public decency is entirely cultural and has less to do with courage. Where I live, if someone is being loud in public, you usually keep to yourself. So long as they are not being…
Your ideas are quite weak and you ask for overwhelming proof, but not willing to read any research. That’s just intellectually lazy. Perhaps if you took some time to learn from the experts, those who create these…

Agreed. Methadone is effective because it comes with lower respiratory fatigue. If you have a nasty addiction, methadone is the gold standard for treatment. It's really all that's available to ween people down. There…

No I’m not. Please read the first sentence of my post. I agree, it’s tough to be honest when you’re vulnerable. Expressing vulnerability exposes how people really feel about you.
I can see how therapy can be helpful for some people. But I find it to be a big scam from my own personal experience. What incentive do they have to give you immediate and durable results? Why do most only take cash? I…
