I’m 34 and I just realized I’ve been performing competence at work for seven years because somewhere along the way I confused being impressive with being safe, and the exhaustion I thought was burnout was actually the weight of never once letting anyone see me learn something for the first time.

Performing competence at work can look like professionalism, but when it becomes a defence mechanism against being seen learning, the exhaustion it produces isn't burnout — it's the physiological cost of maintaining a persona that never pauses.

Царский путь к пониманию комплексных чисел. Часть II

В предыдущей части была рассмотрена предыстория комплексных чисел: от их первого открытия до понимания и умения их широко использовать в науке прошли сотни лет. Комплексные числа впервые возникли как артефакт вычислений в работе Кардано 1545-го года и вплоть до конца XVIII века их статус оставался нестабильным, шли научные дискуссии об уместности их употребления и интерпретации. Современные изложения теории комплексных чисел выглядят «магически» и непонятно для многих людей именно потому, что,... Read more

The economist John Maynard Keynes predicted in 1930 that his grandchildren would be working roughly fifteen hours a week by the early twenty-first century — and the strange thing is that, technologically, he was approximately correct

It is unusual for a prediction to be half right and half wrong at the same time, but that is basically what happened in the case of John Maynard Keynes. The technology arrived. The leisure did not.  In 1930, as British unemployment was climbing toward Depression-era levels, Keynes wrote a short essay called Economic Possibilities ... Read more Read more
