Any serious mountain range (e.g. Alps or Pyrenees in Europe), if you are good enough in mountaineering (it looks on the surface like everything is inhabited, but there are huge patches of mostly untouched wilderness everywhere). However, you have to be in a pretty good physical condition and have some training to do that, which is probably not the case for most HN readers, including myself :)

I really like to hike in Alps, but I don't know how to find these uninhabited places. For sure there are things for more experienced mountaineers, but on these routes there are also people, just more experienced ones.. Besides, I don't want a technically difficult route, I want a route without people..

Which country are you hiking in mostly? In Switzerland and Italy, there are many uninhabited places.

I can't help but compare with my surroundings, even I have quit Facebook for many years. I can't be myself w…

A cubicle? You'd be lucky. Today's Modern, Dynamic, Collaborative workplace has no room for outmoded concepts of "personal space". Welcome to your new workspace: a cubic meter on a cafeteria style table in a sea of cafeteria tables. Join the team of tomorrow -- always chattering, always discussing, always collaborating to build a better future! Now you need to get these stories done by end of sprint. We have a releas…

Sure maybe it's not for EVERYBODY, but it's not always that bad. In 6 years of work at 4 companies, I've never had real work pressure, and 15 min a day for standup is not a tall order...

Last summer I've been in Austria and Italy, was relatively full with people. Tell me where these secret uninhabited places are and I'll go there :)
