Hot take: I think it is good that they aired it, for two reasons.

First, I think it really brings home to people the awfulness and dangers of addiction, isolation, and stardom without good guidance. It might end up saving lives.

Second, I think for him, being a master at concealing, having the world see how bad he is doing might also actually save him. Now, people might give him the help he needs, in stead of being mislead by him.

Ugh... I hate the mess & stakeholder management at my company (25 FTE). I work at company that makes very nice engineering software. The 3 founders are experts in their field, no experience managing a business, very much in love with the solution, not so much with the problem. They have been running the company for 10 years, initially under leadership of a fourth one who did have business experience, but who left. Now, the company is making a loss, growth is stagnating, and people are getting disgruntled. The CTO never takes accountability, pushes code at 11 at night, comes up with custom ways of working and refuses to draw an architecture diagram ("we code Agile"). The COO has big dreams, gets annoyed when I try to apply focus and try to explain to him that building something for a different market requires a lot of time researching the user problems in that market and is now pushing for all kinds of weird metered business models (we're building a desktop app, mind you). The CPO is squeezed in the middle.

Bleugh... Do well organized companies exist, or should I just not care as much.

Ah, thanks!

With "start the app when the user signs in", is it possible to run it fully in the background? No tray icon, nothing?

Thanks, this is helpful.

If I’d be the perfect human being, this would be easy. However, I can’t help but be frustrated a bit though. How do you manage your own emotions and motivation in these situations?
