The loss of the submersible vessel "Titan" near the wreckage of the Titanic is quite the coal-mine canary, and prospective human greatness has to qualify and take note of this. Any intelligent wealthy man now knows that space is impossible. He is stuck here, with everyone else. He now has skin in the game. His delusions have been dissolved. The property value of Earth has never been higher! These attempts to escape our Earthly binds will NEVER have a reasonable safety margin. The nature of these voyages are of suicide missions, there is no growth potential here, no staying capacity. The premise of planet hopping as we use up resources is clearly delusional. So what are the humans going to do? Keep going to work? To state clearly: There are no materials that can withstand the critical forces in space or beneath our surface. We are here and going no where else. What can humans accomplish? Taller buildings? Faster cars? Robots that you can fuck? What is the ceiling for innovation? Was innovation all just a lie? A way to pass off hedonism? Take for instance the notion of "There is a future, so therefore our actions today are permissible". This mindset is fucking dead in the water like those rich submarine guys in the North Atlantic ocean. Quit your jobs. Go to the woods. Dance around a fire and talk to spirits. You are stuck here. You are an Earthling. The so called rat-race was predicated on the basis of an unknown limit of human potential. WELL WE NOW KNOW THE LIMIT. WE HAVE FOUND IT. SO IT'S ALL OVER! IT'S OVER! Innovation, futurism, all of such ilk is no longer morally permissible as the dead end has been reached! The unknown is gone and now we can be humans again.

Alright so I'm a fucking retard at planning, literally can't be arsed to do it. I even play chess as if it were checkers. I'm really really good at tactics, horrible at strategy. I basically have a brain that can execute and succeed in any immediate task, but there is not necessarily a strategic element at involved. I'm a fantastic problem solver, but the issue exists that I solve the problem but perhaps not strategically solved.

Most jobs I believe are in the realm of strategy. Most people are playing multi-step things. I'm a one step guy. Fucking good at the one step. I never fail when I take my one step. But I never do multi-step strategies in my life.

What type of job fits my ability to solve any issue as long as it is single step and future strategy is not a factor? I'm talking my brain is supercharged for it, anything that requires one step but would still be too difficult for 99% of people to process, I can easily solve that situation. Add a second step, but both step are much easier and wham I'm uninterested and useless. I am a one trick pony.

post sciency links and post sciency facts I want to learn from a broadly cast net

I will rabbit hole interesting things
