Working around the clock to hit a deadline isn't hard for me. Turning off burnout mode and ramping back down to a more sustainable steady state is really difficult. I get so used to a high level of short-term productivity that I can't immediately rationalize working less. 😞
Walking back home, saw a non-asian man out for a jog wearing a "Stop Asian Hate" t-shirt. Didn't think it would strike me as hard as it did but it feels tremendous having allies in your neighborhood.
You know your earbuds are great when it blocks out the person screaming on the subway next to you.
What does it mean when all your coworkers, including the contractors you work with tell you to get some sleep.
