This brilliant little simulation by @ncasenmare is a good reminder of the way mainstream media and social media algorithms manufacture and amplify intergroup hatred. ncase.itch.io/wbwwb

Sports and entrepreneurship as in life, there’s no failure, only experience. You win some, you lose some. A great message.

Life is a lot easier even you can just stick to vague pronoucements and innuendo instead of devoting 1000s of hours to developing a rigorous process that people can test against actual results.

who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends herself in a worthy cause;

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
Quiet Quitting doesn't exist. It's not a real trend. There's 0 data to show the phenomenon is new, more prevalent, growing, or anything but a phrase the media had success co-opting & amplifying. Just like "Millennial," or "Gen Z" it's pure semantic, buzzword baloney.
