Being French, I have lots of practice at being cynical and ironic against people who think they know everything but in fact they know shit.

This feels like a dis to the click-bait articles xD.
It would only make sense if this article was called '42 things you should stop giving F#CKs about' XD.
would be interesting to know how you came to the number 42 ;P
Click-bait is a part of it, but frankly I think it's more a symptom than the problem.
The real issue is that we are all insane in this industry and have a high level of permanent stress.
Good idea, done!

Whaaaaat? I live and work in the South of France. Very few people are actually stressed because of their jobs. They live their life, eventually do some work when they are not on strike and don't really give a shit...
Stress is not a standard of any industry, it comes from individuals who cannot give good answers to fake problems.
I was joking about the article name 😂 but the new title looks more friendly.
Yes and thanks a lot, because joking is the perfect remedy to stress.
You cannot really laugh and be stressed at the same time.
Don't believe me? Try do both.
I'm curious, why everything in France is so terrible?
And yes, I completely agree with the "stressing about everything" stuff. I have a co-worker who on occasions we talk for hours on this. "I'm stressed because I have too much work" and others are like "I'm stressed because I haven't been assigned to a project and I feel I'm not doing anything".
And others stress about the traffic, and the weather, and the politic situation and on and on...
It is not!
France is just a normal country with flaws and a lot of beautiful things.
The economy is supposed to be horrible all the time, but in fact it is much better than the propaganda about it would make you and us believe it is.
On the bright side: if the U.S. would be able to transpose some of the features of the French Healthcare systems, that would be a massive improvment of lives for millions of americans - things like thousands of babies not dying, people being more free to work whereever they work, everyone living a number of years more - while ALSO sparing a lot of billions.

Now the specific problem a lot of my fellow frenchen struggle with, you can find it by asking two different questions:
The typical french answer is:
I like the idea, there is nothing
I must, everything is I should ifI WANT TOCongratulations, you now know everything that I know, which is that the complexity is almost never of fact of Nature, but, in fact, the result of smart people being good as making simple things as complex as possible.
Now you can play the same game as me if you see that your friends are being over-stressed over super complicated things. You know less than them about this super complicated thing (since they are the one who obsessed about it since weeks) but you do know that it's probably not super complex.
The only thing they need, is you, their friend, helping them to realize that they are overthinking it.
This is more or less the algorithm to do French Irony(*)
At some point, friend realize herself that she was overthinking it.
And you both laugh together the stress away.
(*) My greek friend would point out, and rightly so, that we didn't, in fact, were the ones that came up with Socratic Irony
What if I want to become a good
$$PERSON?You're already a good PERSON without $$ you don't need them to be a good person.
I think you nailed it 🔝
I wanted to make a good joke about recursion but I can't find any. Sorry
Conclusion is you don't need to do what all others do to be a good one. Just do what you like and the basics.
I have learned to skip over pretty much any post anywhere that lists more than 3-4 things that I 'must' read/do, etc. Too many choices or information overload...no thanks.
