My favorite post of his: Pegs and Holes

Two days ago I came across The Dilbert Principle and The Dilbert Future at a thrift shop. Paid 40 cents for both. It's interesting how spot-on many of his late-90s predictions have already come true about where technology and culture were headed - especially regarding men and women. One prediction was "Most scientific and technical breakthroughs in the next century will be created by men and directed at finding replacements for women." First thing I thought was fleshlight. Followed by virtual reality simulators like oculus rift and how they'd be used for porn. Adams also referred to Sexual Harassment Training as a sad attempt to reprogram billions of years of evolution in 30 minutes. You're right, the guy is definitely Red Pill.

That book is great. It's not the typical advice you hear from successful people like "follow your passion." He flat-out says that passion is bullshit and won't help you much because passion can easily fade when things aren't going well. Lots of other great practical advice in there as well.

thank you for the book suggestion.

I think we could all benefit by more exposure to potential failure. it could desensitize us.
