Also exhaust them mentally. You can only get reminded of the court case about your 8 yo child's death so many times before you break

You shouldn't trust billionaires at all. Even the "good ones". You don't get a billion net worth without exploiting people

Had a helpdesk job. They apparently used to use a very old almost CLI-like interface, but wanted to fase it out to use salesforce. But they still let the seniors at the job use the old interface, while we had to use the new salesforce system.

Which meant that, whenever I had a problem doing something and went to a senior colleague to ask for help that that'd fix it in the old UI, because they never bothered to learn to new one. Which meant that I wasn't learning critical skills in the new UI, and that they weren't learning it at all.

Dumb all around. Quit after half a year for different reasons but that one didn't help

"Marking ones own homework" is a translation of a proverb in my own language which I found fitting here

Then explain why there is a multi million industry and branch of research/education if it doesn't work?

It's crazy to me that there are people who just accept ads into their lives.

According to sponsorblock my paltry 9 submissions saved people from 2619 segments, equalling to 1d21h5m of their lifes, and sponsorblock itself saved me from 4463 segments equalling to 2d14h7m of my life. And that's only sponsorblock, not my adblocker included which doesn't supply those stats.

Why would I ever allow companies to waste my life like that? Yeah sure you can "ignore" it (no you can't, you'll still hear their brand names and slogans/tunes), but if you have to ignore it it's still wasted time.

Fuck that

When I was eating dinner with my ex we liked to put on a youtube video to watch. We always did it on my phone even tho the screen is smaller because I use YouTube vanced, so we didn't have to watch any ads or sponsored segments. Anytime we would have to use her phone cause mine was empty or something I annoyed the hell out of me that we had to watch two ads just for a 16 minute video
