Cory Doctrorow is a smart guy, but his articles are an exercise in gish-gallup of cherry-picked examples to build anarrative for his preconceived conclusions.

Here’s one example:

The “productivity paradox” shows a rapid, persistent decline in American worker productivity, starting in the 1970s and continuing to this day:

His own source shows that this statement is flat out wrong. A decrease in productivity growth is not a decrease in productivity. Just as a decrease in your speed of movement doesn’t mean you’re farther away from your destination.

There have been tremendous gains in productivity from the 1970s till today, but people responsible for production have not seen an equivalent gain in compensation.

The AI bubble is deflating. But that doesn’t mean AI is useless. It just means it’s been oversold. Investors on average will not see the returns they hoped for, but they’re unlikely to see losses on their investments.

There’s a difference between saying, “I didn’t trip” and “I tripped because I didn’t see the object someone camouflaged.”

Seems like she’s saying she didn’t trip.

I hope the responses here resonate with you and help you clear up misunderstandings you have.

I’m assuming that you know about SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE PSICOLOGÍA CLÍNICA – ANPIR and their directory, but just in case: http://www.anpir.org/socios/panel/profesionales_avanzado.php

Did you write this? Have you done any formal studies in psychology?

You can use the corporate approach and tell them that you are recording the conversation and show them that pressed record on your device. Let them choose if they want to continue the conversation without verbally expressing that option to them. If they make it a point to ask you to stop the recording, you can choose to stop and simply take notes.

First. Breathe. Do some mindful meditation if you’d like.

Second. Do NOT quit!

Third. Know that you can call in sick on Monday if you need to.

Fourth. Find a lawyer that specializes in employment law and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) issues. You can do this by contacting a lawyer that is busy and specializes in something else (like real estate, or whatever) and asking if they know someone that can help. Most lawyers won’t charge for an initial consultation, so use that first call/meeting to it’s fullest.

Fifth. Go into the office and find out what their response to the email(s) is. There’s no point in guessing and avoiding finding out. Record conversations (find out about consent for recording in your state). Write notes.

It’s lengthy for sure. It could absolutely use some distillation. But it had me thinking about a lot.

There’s a repetitive theme of limited perspectives not giving a good base of knowledge for future prediction or evaluation.

Is this the type of response that convinced OP to leave reddit?

This feels way too cynical to me.

They are generally counting installations of the app. So it does take conscious effort to be one of the counted. But it’s certainly less friction than most new services.

Is the ability to change handles something that you want?

That’s a fair assessment.
