Recursive Self Improvement Loop envy is the new private jet envy / mega funding round envy / hot BF-GF envy, 6-pack envy, house size envy.
RSI envy exceeds all previous envies (speaking for a friend)

recruiter: "The role requires 75%+ travel, are you okay with that?"
my brother: "I don’t have any family or social obligations. I have no baggage, only bags."

Jensen's Razor: If you employ MBAs for pricing they will teach you how to tariff the chokepoints not your cost drivers or customers' highest value drivers e.g. SAML as paid tier, integrations over 2 as paid tier. You will then be arbitraged away by AI vendor or customer coded.

A $50,000 enterprise SAML paywall isn't just offensive pricing anymore. It's a quantified economic incentive to build an alternative.
So weirdly, hardware is eating software. Leveraging hardware (tokens, yes I know loose analogy), to eat software is a rich buffet

乔布斯曾在一次采访中说：
“我特别喜欢和聪明人交往，因为不用考虑他们的尊严。”
记者就反问：
“聪明人难道就没有尊严吗？”
乔布斯解释说：
“聪明人更关注自己的成长，时刻保持开放的心态，而不是捍卫面子，不是想方设法证明自己没错。”
所以，认知低的人最大的特征就是永远无法理解你的维度。
你说的是逻辑，他听的是情绪；
你讲的是结构，他在想你是不是瞧不起他。
和认知低的人沟通就是一种巨大的消耗，因为你们根本不在同一个频道：
你讲理，他就打感情牌；
你分析因果，他反问你是不是太冷血。
最后你不得不放弃沟通。
你试图唤醒一个没有自省能力的大脑，本身就是徒劳。
认知低的人无法分清楚事实和观点，他们会用自己的情绪和偏见为这个世界下结论。
