it seems to be "fixed" now i.e. back in English

Sustained initiative from people like yourself, backed by policy and support from the government can do wonders. And I and most people in this thread are grateful for what you do on the ground level already.
> genuinely awed by the hubris it requires to just plow ahead
that tone sounded more like hubris plus other expletives.
The author seems to have put in a lot of thought. And would be open to putting in more thought if you illustrated where he is incorrect or missing info. Otherwise the content is appealing to a lot of people.
LI must have more DAU/MAU than Twitter - most people are just scrolling the LI feed, adding random people to their network (better than adding "friends" on FB), posting/re-sharing longer text+image content.
I only want to see if such a video is coming from a channel I explicitly subscribe to (friends usually).
amazing!
so do they keep shoes on all day? doesn't it get sweaty, itchy, etc...
Minor design details tend to change and even if they are missed out, they get caught at some point - cost of dev rework is generally manageable.
Another big tool for bigger product teams has been component libraries (and corresponding Figma assets). That makes it all simpler.

Anyway, a big blow for SF to lose Westfield.
That's insane. And by the same process, does plastic/microplastic in compost/soil, end up in fruits/veggies?
AFAIK they do food donation drives regularly (or something similar) and probably supports other causes consistently. Those come from a place of passion, vision and commitment. Otherwise the YT videos are good execution to serve the audience and sponsors.
Tbh I haven't been tempted to watch his videos. Like many other commenters, I find something is off
Some tasks I don’t even know how I can delegate but I’m sure some people do.
And just to avoid the rich vs poor, I’ll caveat - some people’s first instinct is to successfully delegate or get help. And or they spend more. Caveat’s caveat: it can be learned and practiced, like anything.
How’s the mechanics for it? Have you considered starting from there?
> mental models of the world tend to solidify as we age
Mental models solidifying over time might be true. But "acceleration" is a shared experience for entire generations (of peers). It seems a broad enough experience that it is more than perceived. Like a grandma is content to read books instead of being on top of HN, etc.
Solidified mental models also gives perspective on life and its direction. And people tend to converge on few similar timeless mental models on a meta level.
> long range compounding effects of technology
It's correct, most modern systems are enabled by better tech at its root. But the collective will of humanity (at least right now) is to leverage tech to push it further. Instead of a sinusoid where we take time to fix unintended side-effects we created (like pollution, resource depletion, re-assess education, etc).
Once in the "wild", most individuals are forced to make their own path. On top of that, minor tasks and chores pile up, leading to decision fatigue. Very few things are fulfilling. It's hard I guess. And that seems to be the topic in Oliver Burkeman's book 4000 weeks.
I just meant relatively, compared to big companies; smaller companies will make more exceptions to retain folks. And smaller companies realize and value the pros of remote workers more, like savings in office space expenses.
