I was sitting on my porch yesterday watching this guy drag out his hose in the middle of the afternoon while it was 92 degrees outside. He stood there for 45 minutes soaking his grass while the sun was blasting down. I wanted to yell something about evaporation loss but I held back. Later I heard him complaining to another neighbor about his water bill being $120 last month. I don't get how people can ignore basic stuff like watering times when the info is everywhere. Do you guys ever see neighbors doing lawn care stuff that makes zero sense or am I the weird one for caring about it?
I was in the break room at my office in Austin yesterday and two guys from marketing were going at it. One said using ChatGPT for drafts is cheating and makes your brain soft. The other guy laughed and said it just speeds up the boring parts so you can focus on the real thinking. I sat there eating my sandwich and honestly I see both sides. Like I tried it once to write a quick email and it saved me 20 minutes but I felt weird hitting send on something I barely touched. But then again I spent 3 hours last week rewriting a dumb report from scratch and maybe I could have used that time better. How do you guys draw the line between helpful tool and crutch?
