Weird miss to not call it Lunatix.

this is really buggy and feels oldweb in a unpleasant way. like newer than visiting a site with no index page and seeing the vanilla apache file directory, but only enough to use old jquery-ish 2003 era web ui/patterns/components.

clicking a file and a big spinner appearing. hitting back button to go back up a few folders, spinner never goes away, etc.

depression existed before smartphones, but now everyone can record viral tiktoks lamenting their depression for views/engagement while other depressed people consume it

This is such a bitter take.

You have two things you can control: your impact to your company, and the company you choose to impact.

Step 1 is focusing on impact. Be a profit centre not a cost centre. Know your customer. Know from start to finish how your company finds customers, makes them aware of your solution, and delivers value and in the end how you get them to pay for it.

Twiddling bits and bytes is the “how” of delivering value.

Focus on the what (job you customer is trying to do)

and the why:

(why does your company exist, what problem does your customer have, how do they meet in the middle and create value for everyone)

An engineer who can help the product management discover the right problem is infinitely more valuable than an engineer who can solve hard problems if they are just told what to do.

Get good at delivering value and find a company you are happy delivering value with

it reads more like you're bitter because he exposed the simple formula for success in a modern corporation and you're gatekeeping ICs from seizing this opportunity

For sleep, I really enjoyed Matthew Walker's book "Why We Sleep".

It really helps cement the need for sleep, even if you _think_ you don't need it. Not getting enough is going to kill you in the long run, both mentally and physically. And no, you're not "built different" if you think you don't need 7 hours of sleep.

the fact that humans need a book to tell them sleep is good shows how broken this society is.... or how stupid the average person is

This is the 4D chess kind of move you get when Musk's brain is operating at maximum capacity.
