  The blank slate fallacy is a false premise that is highly damaging to both humans and AI.

  Their words

  It’s amazing how damaging a single false premise (the blank slate fallacy) can be for humans. Same holds true for AI.

  When a team sees what needs to happen but does not want to be the bad guy, someone making the call saves enormous amounts of meetings and change management.

  They see what needs to happen but don’t want to be the bad guy. I’m happy to just make the call if I agree with the premise. Saves enormous amounts of meetings and change management etc.

  Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience

  Their words

  It’s one of those things that make perfect sense once you think about it. Great book, very important premise and a short and concise explanation. Can’t recommend enough.

  There Is No Antimemetics Division

  Their words

  There Is No Antimemetics Division by qntm is a mind-bending psychological thriller about a secret agency tasked with fighting dangerous "antimemes"—ideas that refuse to be remembered. Plenty of stories start with a clever high-concept premise and just let it play out. This one pushes its premise to extremes I never imagined possible, ratcheting up an astonishing amount of tension along the way.

  Competition that removes differentiation makes everyone worse off, because it assumes people already know what they want.

  economists

  Their words

  economists have this fantasy of the world of companies in direct competition driving down price and increasing efficiency while supplying the same thing which is based on a false premise that people know what they want to begin with. Now I would argue when you don't create differentiation, everybody suffers.

  Anbernic Win600

  Their words

  I don't know who I would reccomend this device to. The premise of this device has a lot of promise, but in practice it has so many problems that it's overall not really worth choosing in comparison to devices like the Steam Deck.
