our laziness feature optimizes for now, even if we are going to be heavily negatively impacted in the future.

I wish this were easy programming to break. I spent the better part of my teens and 20s optimizing for minimal responsibility and maximum enjoyment. Other parts of my life have definitely suffered because of this.

Optimisation means we can get stuck in our ways, rather than expanding.

Despite my laziness, I never really liked getting into a schedule. I enjoy the randomness of things, and the lack of monotony. I've lived in lots of different places, I've had several different careers, I've even had a handful of long-term partners over the years. The only constant I like IS CHANGE itself! Keeps me on my toes and offers new challenges. New discoveries! So if that's what it takes to feel human, I'm all for it!
