Finally someone talking some sense in the subject of bank runs. Known stuff but it’s good to see it clearly said on a mainstream publication that also publishes politically motivated opinions on the subject.
I think this qualifies for Adult Protection Services, in the sense that there's a social disability due to the prolonged lack of exposure to the real world:
Although this is difficult to avoid because of its pervasiveness, I'm trying to avoid working in projects whose value proposition imply consistently distracting people from doing focused work.
Also, I'd not like to work in companies that use information that I consider BS in their publicity. I can cite RedBull in this case, with their publicity about turning you into the greatest multitasker of the office, when it's pretty obvious to me that multitasking has never worked and that it's totally delusional. See http://mywings.redbull.com/in-en/need-to-focus .
To avoid FB making me miserable, I only follow people whose posts tend to be interesting. The tools are there. Just use them.
If there's something I can ask FB to do is to make it still easier to manage privacy of posts, and to unsubscribe to second-degree stuff like "X liked Y" or "X reacted to Y".
As someone who is already in Amazon and moved teams, I recommend you to keep your interviewing skills sharp, specially if you see that the project you're working on is going nowhere and might be cancelled. You wanna be ready to interview so that you don't get moved to a random team. I was in that situation and it really sucks. I had to start over getting used to interviewing, failing 2 or 3 interviews before I landed a job with another team. A really complicated time for me.
