This sounds a bit more advanced than

> They just figured out what you like to watch and showed you more similar stuff.

the OP says they want their run to be time away from the phone. Not just because it is too difficult to carry physically.

Ok, you don't want to fork out for another device just for running, but why do you need a device at all? And what if it is those "needs" that the OP is trying to get away from.

To have a small window of time when you are free from all the damn devices.

It isn't just cannabis.

what if the law categorizes abortion as felony/murder?

what if the law categorized certain types of sexual behavior as felony?

Appreciate you stating your assumptions.

> The World Without Us is a 2007 non-fiction book about what would happen to the natural and built environment if humans suddenly disappeared... it outlines, for example, how cities and houses would deteriorate, how long man-made artifacts would last, and how remaining lifeforms would evolve. Weisman concludes that residential neighborhoods would become forests within 500 years

agreed. However, as I read the parent's post, they did not immediately see that DFS was an acronym for a basic algorithm. Given their implied background in computer security, a field littered with thousands of abbreviations (very few of which are basic algorithms) it is understandable that they needed a minute to see what DFS meant.

I could alternately ask a number of python developers if they were familiar with Javascript object notation, and cause a panic because they aren't familiar with javascript. Interviews are stressful. If your field always call it 'json' or 'a dict', you might not immediately make the connection.

And now deep-sea mining.

instead of creating a very large internal jobs program to build/repair fundamental infrastructure?

Such a waste. The ROI from 'better roads' is massive.

Take that, you mere 10x-ers! Your days are toast!

except that there is no gradient towards 'better' software, at least not in a mathematical sense.

Scholarly work, not preachy.

by "Doug Metzger finished his Ph.D. in literature in 2011. His chief scholarly interest, following his dissertation work, continues to be 19th-century realism and postbellum American philosophy."

I read the author as saying that his mind is being fracked, with all the implicit destruction that operation can cause, so that others can extract something from him. Yeah, I see that the analogy breaks down, because the extractors are after attention not dopamine (we're the ones who get the dopamine).

The thing is, your manager has to fill in some paperwork and other admin processes to get you that raise. The manager is probably willing to do that work for you.

You can make this easier for them by helping them fill in that template. Making your manager's job easier IS part of your job, especially making it easier for them to get you a raise.

So yes, the main part of your job is to do the work explicitly assigned to you. And another part of your job is making sure that the work you've done is easily legible to the company.

family/friends relationships have other 'rules'/courtesies.
