The real purpose of seeking fuck-you money is to stop learning. Interesting and ironic that many self-professed L3s also seek FU$.

This is sort of what I mean by being against lifelong learning. What most people actually end up with is a kind of limited life training. A finite bag of tricks that stabilizes by ~35 and backstops you under the mounting pressure of a median life. https://twitter.com/deltastatesb/status/1227352699248750592?s=21 …https://twitter.com/DeltaStateSB/status/1227352699248750592 …

Life is growing pressure. At a certain point, it collapses your learning curve, and you are a robot governed by your “training” — conditioned already learned adaptive behaviors. Every OODA eventually turns into an O_ODA. It’s a when, not an if.

Think of it as adaptation reserves. It’s a race to accumulate as much as you can before the pressures of human condition turn you into a non-orienting robot. If you’re lucky, your learning curve cruising altitude will be comfy one with jet stream tailwind. FU$ is a good altitude.

If you’re *really* lucky you’ll be able to preserve the illusion that you’re still learning. Nah. If there’s no open-ended adaptation stakes with non-diminishing marginal risk, you’re just chasing pleasant stimulation, not learning.
