  • that’s what life would be like if we didn’t have to work to survive

    Which mustn’t be an issue. Most advanced nations produce a surplus of food for example. So much, that an insane amount of it is wasted and never consumed.

    So in principle, sure. Some work is necessary to allow a certain quality of life for all and ensure survival. But if you think about our fucked up wealth distribution, it does not need to be so hard.




  • Die KI-generierten Grafiken darin (die ich zumindest als solche vermute, an einer steht’s ja dran) finde ich sehen in Ordnung aus.

    sogenannter “KI”

    Warum “sogennant”? Ist es doch auch.

    KI Schrott ist mMn prinzipiell abzulehnen

    Was macht es für dich denn zu “Schrott”? Und warum lehnst du es prinzipiell ab?












  • I don’t think that this makes it wrong. As I see it, the meaning of your advice is to prioritize self-care over work. It surely helps with mental and physical health. And I think this also applies to people saving lifes of others like medical doctors. They are also still people, they can also suffer from that kind of work. And I always prefer a doctor who thinks about getting enough sleep and quality time in life over someone who drives themselves mad and makes themselves sick by burdening the whole world on their shoulders.

    If they can’t help themselves, how can they help me?
    Or, 101 of car crashes, first save yourself before you attempt to save others.

    There are also others who help. It’s not one single person’s job to save everyone.

    If someone says X, but does Y, this doesn’t mean they are not right about X.

    Other example, if someone is raising public awareness about littering in nature and is then caught throwing a plastic bottle into a forest, does that mean they are wrong?

    Sure, it’s shitty, but that doesn’t make them wrong in saying that people shouldn’t do it, even if they are not living up to their own words.


  • It’s the basic driver of all somewhat intelligent life on earth.

    Do something - fail - explore alternatives - do it again - success? Keep it. Fail? Back to exploring and retrying.

    Whether it’s babies learning to walk or you overcoming difficult situations in life. We should embrace errors and failures of others, as it’s an opportunity for them and us to learn and prevent similar mistakes in the future.




  • When dealing with a busy person in a professional context;

    • Emails should be as short as possible while still conveying the needed information, don’t make a busy person excavate the relevant info from somewhere near the middle of the fifth paragraph.
    • Whenever possible phrase a question in a way that can be answered in one word.

    Not a fan of this. Feels like a result of over-optimization in a capitalistic, profti-driven society.

    We are humans. Not machines. So treat each other like that. If you like to write a couple of more words to express yourself or some issue in a way that feels representing, go for it. Doesn’t mean to escalate this into a novel, but it’s fine to take a pause and talk more.
