    1. if a random comment on the internet is enough to destroy

    your dream

    then it was a weak and shitty dream. Get a new one.

    1. do it anyway. Who cares. You know what’s the worst that could happen? You try, and it doesn’t work out and then you can look back at it and consider it “gave it a good shot, didn’t work out”. And then you can point to all the people who still sit on their couch and didn’t even try.

    2. do it.

    The show runner insisted on telling “their version of the story”.

    Which… let’s put it like this:

    If you’re making a TV series about a book series written by a world famous author, and you think you can do a variation / “your take” on the story, because you think you’re just that great of a writer, artist, director, etc., then you better actually be on his level.

    1984 literally has a manifesto describing what’s happening.

    In fact, the brainwashing of the kids in 1984 to report on their parents having / reading / discussing “controversial media” is a major element of the dystopia. Those media are not explicitly named, but I don’t think they have to be.


  • Sure. Yes. I’m aware.

    The point is, if an employee isn’t productive, the company should notice, because they should be running some kind of oversight over the work either being done or not being done.

    If the work is being done, even if the employee isn’t always 100% focused, the company shouldn’t care.

    If the work is not being done, the company should care, regardless of how active the mouse moves.

    using mouse jigglers to fake being at work is the kind of thing that keeps more companies from allowing WFH.

    No, companies don’t allow WFH because they don’t trust employees or can’t verify, employees doing their work from home. Most of the time, because the company people don’t understand that work and couldn’t judge if it’s being done correctly without adults in the room.


    tldr: people should be hired and fired based on their performance. Crazy talk, I know.
