Interesting read, bookmarking it until my boss stops staring at everyone's morning monitors. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, will try that

Damn really hate those "subscribe to read", maybe there's a link to this article without the need to subscribe?

Nice tips, the one with "don't reboot the system" is very useful, that's like the first thing I would do :D

Elon Musk seams like a better visionary than economist. I like the person in general because he's being sincere about his actions, but the market these days is very competitive and I guess it makes him hard to realize the ideas he has in mind. I recall he said he liked reading Ian Banks, a sci-fi author that wrote a very innovative literature with unique view of the future. I can sense the same when listening to Musks interviews.

The name of this article is a bit misleading (as other commentators stated), but the growing suicide rate is troubling. I think the part where employees feel like robots is a huge part of the problem. It's hard to make ends meet in a rough economy and a lot of people don't believe they have any say in current democratic process, one vote is what you get but the whole management of the system is hardly controlled by the electorate. There's a huge feeling of hopelessness, Mark Fisher in "Capitalist realism" wrote how youth fails to cope with the prospect of future that a big part of them will have to do a job they won't find satisfaction in. Some of us can land truly great positions but the suicide rates show a huge population living under distress.
