      Yeah, it’s the exact same expression as of all the others, but I’m feeling that one so much more. Possibly, because I am an introvert, too…

    There is enough social psychology​ research to suggest that most of the time people are more efficient alone than in a group, although some tasks take more than one person. Process gain vs process loss, social loafing, groupthink, etc., if you put four people on a team you might get 200%, not 400% return, or worse.

    Interesting, for complex tasks that require thought, the most efficient grouping tends to involve groups with diverse backgrounds and a work culture that values disagreement… which is basically the opposite of what’s going on in American government right now, lol.

      This seems true only on short time scales, and in corporate work structures. On long time scales and with more collaborative, voluntary work structures, a group of people working together and supporting each other will almost certainly outperform a disorganized collection of non-communicative individuals. We can see this is true because, yaknow, society exists.

    then there’s me. sitting in the cart with a stick pushing myself along.

    completely unaware that the track abruptly ends in 300 feet and I have zero brakes.
