Oliver Burkeman:
Barely a day passes without some new viral warning that something big is happening and most people aren’t ready or that you have only 18 months before your skills are obsolete – with the implicit or explicit caution that if you mess this up, you’ll be permanently left behind, with catastrophic results for your life.
I’m not going to link to any of these contagious anxiety-spreading pieces, for the same reason I don’t go around actively sneezing in people’s faces when I catch a cold.
