@Daojoan First thing that came to mind: Freud didnt bring "listening to ones self" into mainstream, but actually "listening to others". Back then doctors weren't supposed to listen to the psychotic fantasies of their patients. Freud and the Viennese circle made that mainstream.
So maybe .. that's the underlying issue for Mr. Andreessen?
Introspection is not something that necessarily costs energy. Listening to others and being compassionate about it does however and could be perceived as something holding one back. Then again that wouldn't sound like something one could willingly relate to, does it?
drachenmagierThis is for all the artists who plan to work on THAT personal art project today, that has long since lost its appeal and now just feels like nothing more than a tiresome obligation, but you feel compelled to finish it anyway:
It's ok trash it. Or put it on top of the wardrobe and forget about it till you move out.
You got my ok for it.
Do what brings you joy.
Happy weekend!
Soatok DreamseekerHere's a privacy-enhancing technology for you to consider:
"No."
You don't need to know. You don't need to measure. The efficacy of advertising campaigns, market segmentation, and relevance targeting should be minimized for the good of humanity.

Ich bin eine Frau, Mutter und Lehrerin. Ich unterrichte Informatik, Astronomie, Mathematik und Politik. Das habe ich alles studiert auf Diplom.
Und ich bin seit über 12 Jahren die IT-Administratorin meiner Schule.
Und ausnahmslos sind es Männer (Lehrer), die mir in meine Position als IT reinreden und diese Position selbst gern haben wollen und mich ständig sabotieren.
Aber: keiner dieser Männer hat eine Ausbildung oder ein Studium in Informatik oder sonst eine gleichwertige Erfahrung in diesem Bereich!
Ich weiß gar nicht mehr, wie es ist, mit Männer über IT zu reden und mich nicht dafür rechtfertigen oder beweisen zu müssen, warum ich tue, was sich tue!

@robotistry @pseudonym like a dragon-bat so I don't bump into shit (that much). Anything else gives me itchy brain.
It's a beautiful thought-experiment.

They're right though 
@TazPoltorak @pseudonym right? One could create a character with the same physique - therefore the same skeleton regarding animations - and even voice, but still, I assume, one would pick the female avatar.
