I was forced to read this in freshman English… it was awful. Realized you could make it say whatever you want and used that for the essay I wrote

What did you buy from where?

That's like what? $2-3 million worth of butter?

Doesn't seem like much for a factory right?

So ChatGPT can trivially solve the first advent of code problem

Highly recommend reading it, one of the greatest books I've read from a perspective of understanding the financial industry.

What’s your experience been? I also have never drunken, and really don’t plan on it.

My mistake was avoiding parties and socialization in college along with drinking.

Lol

We have no effective way of storing energy. If you only want energy on sunny windy days during daytime, this is fine. Enjoy the power going out at night and when the wind slows down.

Hopefully we will get much cheaper storage and production soon, but it's not completely viable now.

A lot of his earlier work with resveratrol was extremely sloppy and it fell apart in time. I believe it's a lot of what gained him earlier popularity, and has effectively been debunked to a very large degree.

US has 12th highest college completion rates

Oh hey! It’s our favorite time of the quarter!

:D

Boooooooo

I want to be in the office only 1-2x a week and WFH the rest.

Current amazon employee who started remote during the pandemic.

Same here >.<

I just went through my email to try to find a notice. Nope... nothing...

It is better. It’s just not perfect.

Giving $500/mo to everyone would cost like half of the current federal budget per year.

The reality is it’s not the 1% it’s the 0.1% and 0.01%..

Homicides are up everywhere over the past year. Probably more related to covid, unemployment, and people going stir crazy than anything.

I work for Amazon.

Hahahahahahahahahaha no.

So many goddamn pointless meetings, approvals for everything, deployments, updates, planning meetings. Maybe I spent ~10 hour a week in meetings not counting the time that is lost waiting for a meeting to start and trying to get productive again after a meeting ends.

Amazon’s minimum wage is higher than the wage of 1/3rd of the workforce.

Tim Ferriss frequently talks about the writing class he took with John McPhee (author of Levels of the Game) and how as he took that class, the grades went up in the rest of his classes.

He says it’s probably due to refined thinking from taking the class.

ADHD here as well. I used to spend ~6-8 hours on my phone a day prepandemic. By far my worst issue.

Now during the pandemic... more like 10...

The most important factor is hiring good people. Am once off prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Mortgage interest rates are significantly lower than they were 40 years ago.

Considering a large portion of mortgage payments go towards interest, this is a huge deal.

Pilot G-2 0.38mm is the correct size.

“Colonoscopies are very often done with anesthesia in the U.S., making them essentially minor surgical procedures. A 2016 analysis found that for every 1,000 colonoscopies, about 16 people will end up hospitalized within a week.”

I got diagnosed junior year of college, knowing sooner would’ve been very helpful.

Probably would’ve been more social in high school if I took meds because it probably would’ve been easier for me to complete homework, and I would have had more free time.

I think this is teaching a lot of people how much of work is BS.

Now that a lot of the distractions and meetings are gone lots of people are realizing they really only work a couple hours a day and spend the rest dicking around or stuck in pointless meetings.

I’ve tried vyvanse and Ritalin, but neither seem to work nearly as well for me :(

Bill Gates. Random condition. $100 billion dollars. That’s all you need to know about random condition.

Terrible analogy.

If you can design your life to be benefited by ADHD, that’s awesome.

If you’re stuck working a 9-5 like a large portion of the population ADHD sucks.

Biggest issue for me is palpitations on adderall. Withdrawal gives me annoying palpitations and I get them sometimes while taking it.

It’s very annoying when I want to take the weekend off and have to suffer through massive withdrawal.

Honestly has changed my life for the better overall, but if anyone has any suggestions for trying to get rid of palpitations, it would be very much appreciated.
