A hunter-gatherer society where the hunters and foragers are out 60-80 hours per week is not on a grindset; it is *starving and on the brink of collapse*.

Do you think that level of stress is sustainable for a 45-year career, even today?

The thing where conservatives think they should be able to go to college to teach experts instead of to learn from them shows how coddled they have been by society. We need to stop disrespecting them by shielding them with accommodation; let’s respect their beliefs by releasing them to the effects.

We need to start to understand that “respecting people’s beliefs” means giving the people holding anti-society beliefs what they want, which is separation from society. Respect their agency that they want what they say they want. Give them credit for the natural logical effect of their belief.

There’s a similar thing happening at exec level across orgs, all around AI.

Many execs will read this link and think ‘our employees are just idiots who don’t like change, I’ll change them’. The employees aren’t the idiots who don’t know how to do their jobs.

I think there’s a very real chance many AI companies are simply repeating the Ubisoft NFT saga — except instead of flushing away millions, they’ll flush away billions, their employees jobs and the environment.

Why? Because they thought they were above their customers.

The most annoying part of the past 20 years, has been how people flip from angrily calling me a doomer, to complete despair and saying that all is lost now, without ever passing through common sense solutions in between?🤷🏿‍♂️

The common sense solution:
Be less racist to Black people.

All that's needed

Maybe American journalists should reflect on the courage of Iraqi journalist Muntadhar al-Zaidi.
