i for one am excited by our robot future. let the clankers take more of our drudgery.

if you feel you would face an existential crisis without your drudgery then perhaps now is a good time to pause and reflect

"The behaviour of Hongwu, the first of the Ming emperors, is an object lesson in how to stifle the economy: forbid all trade and travel without government permission; force merchants to register an inventory of their goods once a month; order peasants to grow for their own consumption and not for the market; and allow inflation to devalue the paper currency 10,000-fold."

—Matt Ridley, from The Rational Optimist

"The word *courage* is very interesting. It comes from a Latin root *cor*, which means 'heart.' So to be courageous means to live with the heart. And weaklings, only weaklings, live with the head; afraid, they create a security of logic around themselves. Fearful, they close every window and door-with theology, concepts, words, theories-and inside those closed doors and windows, they hide."

—Osho

sometimes i get caught in these normie conversations and get a glimpse at what they've normalized and it takes everything in my power not to tell them i cannot relate at all to what they're talking about

i recommend re-reading some of those classic novels they assigned you in high school

they hit harder and are more comprehensible as a grown adult with mature life experience and a better vocabulary

i just poked my head over there and man, linkedin is the worrrst

anyone have one of these? https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/products/workstations/dgx-spark/
