They can call it New Flevoland

That’s why I use mail relays.

I want everything as dumb as possible. I will register whatever I buy with the manufacturer for warranty purposes, but other than that: dumb toaster, dumb fridge, dumb washing machine, dumb robot vacuum cleaner, dumb doorbell, dumb locks, etc…
If it doesn’t need internet to function, it’s not getting any.

A friend of mine is a professor in anthropology and he told me that he stayed in academia because he was afraid of change and academia was something he knew well.

Maybe it’s a cultural thing? I’ve only ever worked for Belgian and Dutch companies (and one Austrian one, but that was a project of only a couple of months).
All those companies were meritocratic and had an active agenda of nurturing talent.

This is how I work too tbh. Yes, you get more work, but then if it really becomes too much, they will just assign others to help you out (at least, that’s how it always went with me) and then you start delegating. You drill them, they become good, you delegate more. That frees up time for you to actually improve and automate stuff, freeing up more time for the delegates, allowing you to focus even more on making their and your life easier.
I’m in IT, so this might not work in every job type, but I’ve done this in every position I was in and it always worked so far.

I always thought those scifi stories where companies basically rule everything were overblown, but you just see it changing to that in real time.

That’s an EU regulation, not a corporate measure. And it has drastically decreased the amount of littered bottle caps, so a good thing.

There are not many employers that allow that in my experience.

Dolphins will get high on poisonous fish and pass those around like a blunt.

We have blackbirds in our garden and I swear that I have seen the females shout at their lazy ass husband several times. They will tweet angrily, fly after them, hop after them, pull feathers from their tails and whatnot. True drama every time.
