I tried this exercise just after finishing the article. Feels silly to say, but really a remarkable experience.

I recently left tech to go back to school, but the program that I got into is very different than what I had envisioned.

As I reflected on this recent negative event, my perception changed in those ten minutes, reframing the challenge as an opportunity.

Not true. I work at FAANG and my colleagues making 400k work in a “cubicle farm” and also cannot afford a nice house bc we are in an HCOL area.

Porn has been proven to have severe detrimental physical and mental effects, including: erectile dysfunction, depression, changing perceptions of sex, etc.

Feel free to google them (going on google scholar and typing in “pornography negative impacts” is a good start), or I can cite a laundry list of studies saying the same thing.

Especially in this next generation, an increasing number of people are not planning to work for 40 years. Personally, I’m on a path to retire by 36 (16 years of work). Many of my friends and colleagues are on the same path.

I don’t understand modern healthcares obsession with extending life.

Part of the allure of life is because it’s temporary, so each moment is more valuable.

In a life where everyone lives to 200, the value of each moment (of your family, of the choices you make) is less, because you’ll probably have another chance sometime in the future.

Personally, I don’t want to live a day past 80.

I wonder what the motivation for this is? It’s not like anyone is listening to these chopped and shifted tracks right? Maybe bots are streaming these?
