Comment on Entropy Will Fuck You

Comments

Too bad many people can't really share this otherwise-insightful post thanks to its NSFW title.

This is hardly insightful. It's like every startup founder with a Medium/Substack account wants to be like Paul Graham and attempts to write pithy self-help blog posts when they're really just parroting the Tao of Pooh. Stick to writing about business.

I think it's valuable to read about the perspective of people I otherwise wouldn't be able to have this kind of discussion with.

I disagree -- it's insightful, interesting and thought-provoking to me. I find value in that, and some of the ideas/thoughts he expressed in the post. Further, it's some guy's blog post. He's not trying to Win The Internet.

Too bad many people see the word "Fuck" as being NSFW.

Because they don't want to invite chaos and entropy into their lives. Their order-making will never succeed though*.

*According to the article.

I wonder how many insights your circles have missed because they are too sensitive to language.

I said NSFW, not NSFL. No problem sharing this among friends, but it's not generally appropriate to drop a link with a title like that in a work chat with 100+ people or whatever.
