What We Train Our Brains For


This is a bit of a continuation of my last post about burnout, or at least a tangent. I have no tech news to share right now nor any startup tips, so this is what you get :) A thought I had a bit, well, for a long time, was what were the occupational hazards of computing, tech, and to a lesser extent office work in general.

A thought I had a bit, well, for a long time, was what were the occupational hazards of computing, tech, and to a lesser extent office work in general. I for one developed this thing when talking to normal people, I can spot when the sentence grammars are not constructed the way that is most efficient for communication, or when there is a logical flaw in the usage of “and, or, or not”. Expressing gratitude and appreciation more is a start, being less focused on velocity and roadmap, and having more time to pour over designs and make beautiful work might be another.
