You’re severely overestimating the mental capacity of a large section of the population. In fact, almost the entire population after little sleep or on a bad day is likely to make …

Yes, Your Honor, I did convince this teenager to kill herself - but 150 people a year die from coconuts!

What’s the point in having a house if you only spend one day in it, which realistically you will spend doing chores and sleeping?

Maybe it’s just me having low energy levels, but for me, I can’t fathom working 996 while continuing to do focused and deep work consistently. At the moment I work 9-5, a few meeti…

“I'm 3x more creative at home than in the office” I think you mean “productive” (and even that would be arguable).
