I don't believe in second brains. Most people I know who built elaborate Notion vaults ended up with digital hoarding problems. And I'm skeptical of the "Claude Code will 10x your output" discourse.

“When work disappears, the genders produced by the labour market are blurred. When socially necessary labour declines, what we once called women’s work – education, healthcare, service – becomes our basic industry, not a ‘tertiary’ dimension of the measurable economy.

No, I mean out there, in the wide, wide world.” https://aeon.co/essays/what-if-jobs-are-not-the-solution-but-the-problem
