The meme-ification of the “Demon Core”

I think it's at least plausible that ADHD traits could have been useful in the hunting and gathering environment humans evolved in. Being more inclined to pay attention to new things in your environment might make you more likely to discover threats and new food sources. Being able to hyperfocus might be useful if you are practicing persistence hunting and following prey for hours. These traits become a "disorder" because they're not as well suited to capitalist modes of production.

I keep a daily log where I scribble down some basics of what I did that day. At the end of the week, I go through that, consolidate it into a few things I did that week, and add it to a git repo.

When I need to do performance reviews or something, I read over those summaries. A few bullet points per week is manageable enough that I don't try to condense it further, but I do use them as inputs when I'm doing performance reviews or updating my resume.

2016 might be the most clear one. Hamilton and Rosberg were both driving for Mercedes. In 2021, Hamilton nearly won it in his Mercedes despite Red Bull having the better car for most of the season.

The thing is, the teams putting in the money and effort to build the best cars also want to hire the best drivers. I don't think it's too surprising that the best drivers in the best cars get the best results.

There is an autonomous racing league now. You can watch races on YouTube. The cars don't go nearly as fast, and they're much more prone to boneheaded mistakes than human drivers. It wouldn't be safe to have them race against humans. But I do expect them to improve.
