  • if you were in a room with no ventilation (ie shut and sealed windows, a door with an air seal and no air vents)

    • in zero gravity
    • OR in a room with a heat index of 90°F+ (heat index not temperature)
    • OR in a room that puts you in danger of hypothermia (especially if you have heart issues at the same time

    it's possible that a fan might exacerbate oxygen deprivation or the affects of the extreme temperatures

    If you have normal windows, a gap under the door and a vent of some kind then it simply won't.

  • but in Musks specific case, it was family money that allowed him to tool around America with no job and getting into boardrooms with C level big bank owners as a teenager. If I had put on a suit and done the same thing I'd be politely asked if I had an appointment and then asked to leave.

  • Funnily enough Samuel Beckett of Waiting for Godot fame (not the quantum leap guy) wrote a play called Endgame, also punning on the chess term.

    A man who can't walk or see has the only combination to the food pantry, a man who can't sit down is the only one who can take him there to open it. They are the last two people alive. They both continually try to out do each other and come out on top as they can't trust each other to live in peace.

  • Guy was asking for the rest of the story. Not really that interesting: finished out a month at that company as "handover," got a month severance pay, used those two months to look for a new job. Got one.
