Lately there’s been a gradual uptick in young(er) people asking me for “advice” and a steady decline in my energy to be helpful in any way. So I made up a convenient boilerplate advice table to blow them off with.
this is earnestpost... I'll probably refine it a bit and put it on ribbonfarm. It's not meant to contain any new thinking... more of a tldr summary of the general drift of past writing. Long-time readers... did I miss any key idea from old writing?
Earnest but maybe dumb question: sorry but how is the stuff in the “dark” column “advice” exactly? Is it advice in the sense of “watch out and don’t fall prey to this”? Or advice in the sense of “it sucks but you may as well get used to it”? Something else ?
