I’m very lazy.

Left to my own devices, I wouldn’t get much done. I would spend most of my days eating potato chips, watching Netflix, and staring at the internet.

Great entry and completely agree with it all. I also absolutely loved the idea of the background process, I’m certainly going to adopt this, starting now! I have a very similar philosophy when it comes to those dreaded zero days, and that’s a goal of writing one shitty line of code a day.

Delightful up-ending of common understanding

some say that philosophy flourished in Greece because there were many sheep to graze and therefore a lot of time to think, while geometry flourished in Egypt because there was a lot of work to be done when the Nile overflowed.
MAYBE THESE ARE GREAT STUPIDAGES,
however it might be a little bit true.
I believe that you need time to do things but it is ESSENTIAL to have time to think (maybe when you’re bored)
