There is undoubtedly value in both the self-help advice and the self-reflection and self-assessment involved in deciding if the advice is for you.

That value likely will decrease with age and experience, but is still nice to consciously acknowledge and even reflect on, again after the lessons have been absorbed in whatever ways they have been absorbed, adjusted, or rejected.

Wherever you go, there you are. :)

I'm a manager too, but I'm also the new guy pushing the solution to a human problem: work management. SMAR, ASAN, MNDY, etc. Not only do people not want to be responsible for it (and in some cases simply be "not responsible"), not only is the internal solution "too time consuming", the only answer thus lands on hiring external consultants to implement and maintain massively-overkill-$olution$ in $aa$ like CRM, NOW, etc. which as you know, do not solve the same problems as the aforementioned SaaS.

"Now that I'm in management, I 100% get it." 100% and win or lose I am still going to fight it...

And since you became management, you have refered to software only by the stock symbols of the owning companies?

On the other hand, the poker apps encourage me to consider a career change. I regularly crush the "opposition" with my card-counting skills. World Series of Poker, I am all-in!!! ;-)

Card counting in poker?

Gotta keep track of how many more cards you get in seven card stud.

Do you mean Blackjack?

Put another way, we are all competing with professional entertainers now. Sink or swim...

It's in the title itself! lol

Brief anecdote: A friend hired an electrician to wire some things and he asked how the electrician's business was going. The reply was (paraphrased): We hired seven people two weeks ago, now only one is left because the rest either didn't show up, couldn't show up regularly, or couldn't focus on tasks long enough to get work done. We let them go because this is electricity. We are not going to pay for anyone's funeral!

Or Hollywood!

And, one doesn’t have crap being pushed at you while you’re trying to find your way, or businesses filtered out because…

I'm not sure that was the point of the poster's question about electricity, because I've heard the same assertion made by science writers and such.

Our current BFF, ChatGPT, says the question is about "charge" in that we don't know why particles have a charge. So what is a "charge" and why? Gravity is also presented as a thing we don't fundamentally (ontologically) know about. Interesting!

And not disagreeing with the desire to keep asking, nor with the desire to find a final answer. The author of the article puts it fairly well:

We don’t have philosophically satisfying insights into the universe at subatomic scales...there’s no straightforward explanation of what a bound electron actually does: it’s not orbiting the nucleus or spinning around its own axis in any conventional sense. Most simply, it just exists as a particular distribution of an electrostatic field in space.

The answer to "why?" has to stop somewhere.

Why?

Because 'unknowable' will stop you cold.

And many unknowns are practically unanswerable.

But don't worry, you won't exhaust the findable.

There's a finite amount of time until the heat death of the universe and a finite number of atoms to ask and answer the question.
