“No, it’s not ‘normal’ for humans to be in competition all the time.

It’s not normal to work for most of your waking hours of the day.

It’s not normal to be stressed 24/7.

Stop taking a few hundred years of capitalism and pretending that’s just how being human is. It’s not.”

Why does it have to be a marketplace of ideas, and not a library? why should we have to sell our ideas instead of making them a public good

OK, I gotta get better at self-promotion, so… today’s Story You Absolutely Should Buy* is…

What we have here is mythos-ish stuff, scalding horror, regret, a coroner’s daughter and a prequel to my novel MASK OF THE OTHER. It’s creepy!

The notion of a broken clock being sometimes right is based on a gross misunderstanding of what information is.

A clock that always shows the same time is never right, even in the moments of the day when the time happens to be what it shows, because you don't gain any information about what time it is by looking at the clock.

This reasoning also applies to chatbots. If you can't tell whether what you have been given is useful information unless you alreay know the information, then you haven't been given useful information.

I can't handle how many software companies have fallen hook, line and sinker for this "believe in the mission" horseshite.

Big shops started doing that because management consultancies told them to, and they're both full of shit.

Stop demanding that job applicants write love letters to you in order to be deemed worthy you self-aggrandising fucking wanks.

Jobseeking is already an exercise in ritual humiliation, you don't need to add having your fucking egos stroked into the mix.
