Maturity is realising that Common Sense is not so common

Maturity is realising that Common Sense is not so common- Grapevine

I was thinking on these lines and found this reel (Zuckerberg reading my mind tbh)

Is it okay to seek respect just because we are older in age? It is something we have been taught since childhood

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

This question is posed to you by Peter Thiel in his book "Zero to One"

My answer to this is:

We are in a big cycle where India will become everything great. Last 8 years have taught me that we are in the greatest momentum bet of this country's life time. So, don't rule out India. 

Build in India. Invest in India. Believe in India. 

There are many in this community that are complete nihilists and supremely bearish towards India's prospects. And let me tell you, for once in this country's history, being a complete maximalist on India is a bet that you will not regret. 

There will be a new generation of millionaires and billionaires that will be minted on new industries. So keep hustling and this country will unleash great dividends for you and your legacy.

[Thread] What important truth do very few people agree with you on?

Indians killed quora with cringe questions. The same cringe is now surfacing on grapevine too.  
  
 To be fair, many Indians moved away from facebook and are now increasingly not using insta for the same reason.

Thought of the Day: Maturity leads to loneliness in the short term but stability/happiness in the long term

Senior Software Engineer

Not sure how many anime fans are here, but I was recently watching this new anime called “Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead”, which basically shows how a corporate employee is so fed up with his messed up job, that the first thought he has, when zombie apocalypse hits is, “I don’t have to go to work anymore!”, and he’s out to do things that he always wanted to.

Anyways, in the new episode, its shown how a toxic leader/boss/senior behaves. And man, was that so accurate!! 

It shows how these leaders make you work like hell, belittle you, and misbehave with you. Even if you think of leaving the job, they make you believe how hard it is to survive without your current job, and how the work you’re doing is nothing, and that you can be easily replaced. 

And in the end, after fucking up your mental peace, they will come and show a little bit of sympathy, telling they how they just push you for your own sake. Acting like some wise old “mentor you never had”.

And you know, what the worst part is, since all your colleagues are living in the same environment, since everyday you go through the same toxicity over n over, it becomes normal for u. Your brain adjusts, and it seems to think that this is how the world is. 

Moreover, if you are a fresher, and you don’t have any prior experience of work culture, you seem to believe thats how work life is, and will always be. 

I’m ranting this out, since i wasted around 1-1.5 years of my life in such startup, and it wasn’t just the time that was wasted, it also took my passion, my energy, my motivation and my goal with it. 

To all the folks who might be in a similar situation, I just want to say, I know it’s hard and I know you probably can’t leave due to some financial situations or other issues. But BELIEVE ME when i say that nothing in this entire world comes above your mental health. Save that first folks. Be selfish, saving others can wait!

Traits of a toxic workplace

Cannot explain but knowing your limits and thresholds is oh 🤌🏻

Why are self-aware people sexy, it is the most basic thing

You know how when you're young and you see those dramatic movie scenes where the lead role is having a drama argument with a loved one. You feel that the argument is so pointless and illogical and hence the scene isn't very realistic. I mean why would the protagonist argue about something which basically translates to "You can't help me with this! I have to do this on my own!".

But when you grow up a bit and you get your first gray hairs - you start to realise that such seemingly irrational arguments are a part and parcel of life and probably one of the few realistic details in movies.

Given that at times we're not even able to align our fellow loved ones on important things, I do not have a lot of hope for us to be able to align any superintelligent AI. People have grown up following very different paths and trajectories with very different experiences so it becomes difficult to attain alignment. I suspect that a superintelligent AI would be so far removed from humanity and human experiences that we'll barely be able to convince it of anything on any topic.

The superintelligent AI would already have thought about (computed?) anything and everything that humanity can think about collectively. I feel that it will be very hard to convince it to change its perspective on something that has been pre-computed. 

Super-alignment problem is going to be a great filter for human civilisation.

All of us at some point of time go through this phase, fortunately/unfortunately I am going through it too!

Just wanted to know from experienced people, how do you find the right person on the basis of just a few questions?

Or what questions you should preferably ask when you are choosing for a better half?
