This is something I tell my coworkers with ADHD as a senior level person and former manager - you need to accept yourself and what you can do. Sure, exploit the fuck out of brain on time and crash through tasks - but accept that this is temporary. Feeling in the dumps and guilty about not being productive - accept that this is also temporary and (I know this isn't easy) try and tear yourself away from the task and be unproductive in the most pleasant manner... I try to go for walks when I'm in a slump and sometimes it lets me shuffle my brain enough to be productive - sometimes it doesn't... but I'm happier having had a walk than zoning out in indecision.

It's all temporary - our most common strength is improvising and we need to respond to what our brain tells us instead of fighting it constantly and I hope you all have jobs that allow you to do so because I have had an "always on" job and it was absolutely miserable.

It should be illegal but Roberts doesn't give a shit.

Greed is deeply irrational. No one with more than a few million dollars is of sane mind.

Individual contributor - a term for everyone who isn't a manager.

We don't tolerate intolerance.

Companies where there are long tenured employees outside of management is my ultimate green flag. If you can figure out who is in management by drawing names out of a hat by senority and stop when you run through 80% of managers without hitting a single IC then you should be aware that ICs have very little say in how the company is run so half the managers are there out of frustration because they needed to become a manager to enact change.

Musk lies a lot so I can't be certain but I think he genuinely wants to be remembered as "The Father of Mars" or some bullshit. I think that fantasy is the real infantile Musk poking through.

I agree that it's easier to go after starlink contracts and express disappointment to those working for Musk rather than going to the sites themselves.

He's got my vote... but as someone voting in VT elections I don't know if I can progressive any harder.

There's no bad reason to give your puppy love and attention.

It's a provincial embarrassment that BC Cons got as many seats as they did.

Atrioc is indeed pretty insightful as to the actual reasons why Tesla is viewed as an albatross - the fact that major stakeholders are selling off shares as soon as they acquire them should be a big warning sign. They are still massively over valued of course.

My takeaway is that protests and the like should start going after his other businesses especially SpaceX. His fucking fantasy is Mars and we should take that away from him.
