    Being confrontational is really just an indirect and deniable way of preventing your target from labeling you passive-aggressive.

    At work, if you suggest something without regard for your own pay, status, or enjoyment, people will get really nervous and confused. "What's his angle???"

    They call it "data-driven" so that when it fails, you'll try to come up with justifications or at least assume the failure is justified somehow.

    Sometimes I do something not because it's important in the moment, but because it's part of a good habit that I want to keep alive. I think organizations – companies, government agencies – do this too, and I try to be understanding about it even when it causes problems for me.

    Organizations treat their stated strategies not as strategies but as fuel they can burn to power their actual, unstated strategies.

    Soft transport-infrastructure porn is like nice photos of pedestrian- and bike-friendly human-scale towns. Then there's the hard stuff.

    Sometimes a state does something big, risky, and outside of its recent comfort zone – an infrastructure project, a space mission, or something else – and one of the main messages it thereby broadcasts is that it's still conscious, cohesive, and vital; that it can handle novelty.

    When someone's really good at something, I always think, "Who hurt you?"

    My college-freshman brain, encountering rich people for the first time: "Jeez, you can't just be born into the right family and expect to be treated like royalty."

    Hmm, he's a celebrated scientist/philosopher/author… but someone on Twitter declared him a midwit. I think I'll skip him, at least until someone else on Twitter calls him underrated after having discovered him while "in a bad place".

    Sometimes a random famous person does something that could be interpreted as unsupportive of something I like, and it's like, How could they? Don't they understand what this means to me personally?

    Intercorporate diplomacy in Silicon Valley involves a chieftain periodically being carried in a sedan chair by nerds in view of other chieftains also being carried by nerds. This sort of coordinated load-bearing is not what the nerds were trained for and their jobs just feel off.

    "The world's happiest nation" produces this adorable video, and this is what you'll see if you anger it.

    If you took an operations expert from Toyota, pointed them at a typical married couple's household chores, and told them to optimize for cost, efficiency, and fairness, they could make *many* improvements. Those "improvements" would probably cause a divorce, though.

    In 2019, if I see one of those old solar-powered calculators in your home, I have to assume you're just a geekier-than-average prepper.

    Most of us probably do the same with adults. "Their answer didn't match my expectations" often makes us think "I wonder what the actual answer is" instead of "oh, my expectations are wrong".

    The CIA, FBI and military should seriously start considering running gameday exercises where we just Turn The Internet Off and see what happens. It is inevitable that one day we will go to war again and that our grids will go down. Besides, we might Like It.
