Oh snap!!! I think I played on T3 for a LOOONG time in the early 2000s. I once even beat Machine once. I can't remember my handle...I've had so many over the years.

You are lost and thought DOGE was a good idea? The entire org is ketamine-fueled techbro Elon wannabes; not the best life-valuing gurus. Maybe take a Buddhist retreat for a year and see if doing quiet charity work feels better than trying t

Feynman loved to go to strip clubs, so it is totally possible to be a genius and a perv. Time management is key.

Even that poses a fun test. What flipping method is needed to ensure some level of randomness. I love that idea of a grifter being able to flip a coin as they choose.

Toyota's "Respect for People" was a sort of joke to me when I worked there, then I worked at Amazon and saw the opposite. Toyota is a great company to work for, albeit super boring.

Good perspective, thank you. I am starting an indefinite sabbatical here in 2 weeks, single and no kids. I don't know what I want or need, but I know it's not 50-60 hrs/week. I also will go nuts if I don't have objective

I'm 41 and I am 90% sure I've had undiagnosed ADHD or some form since forever. How do you go about an adult diagnosis for that? Do I just ask my doc "Hey have I had ADHD my whole life?"

My family in Southern Idaho are a good 30 min from the nearest EMS, and probably 45-60 from a major hospital. Pretty normal stuff out in the sticks.
