Regardless of whether I agree with his ideas, I think this is really great writing.


Which points are you disagreeing on?


It's not so much his ideas, but what he is leaving out. The root cause of his malaise is probably the nature of employment in a large corporation.

I see this as a different domain to the same subject: our work life. I guess the author of the posts article was more trying to describe a way in which humans can work in large corporations while the author of your article is pointing out it being unnatural to even do so.


Excellent post! It was a really pleasant read. It encouraged me to do precisely that today, and I really enjoyed it.
