How to Be Useless
I'm noticing a sad trend recently.<p>* This article is one instance.<p>* Within the past 24 hours there was a Hacker News submission "Self-improvement is embracing your messy, imperfect life" ( <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29928873" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29928873</a> )<p>* Combine this with the sudden appearance of subreddit "Antiwork".<p>Are people depressed or anxious because of covid, or what's wrong?<p>Trying to be a better person every day, in combination with the wonder of creativity and building, is what made the internet interesting in the early days. Who are these people who are turning communities into sad opposites of these values?
