We could, oh, I don’t know, build local work groups and refuse to accept US dollars locally.
There are other frequencies we can speak, and geometry we can “draw” on the globe via agency. No need to constrain them to ephemeral value stores and chants of the last 60-70 years.
It’s pretty sad how we set aside our self guided learning to prop up gadgets to prop up some hallucinated figurative view of the world we had foisted on us.
I feel zero obligation to play host to a mind virus that preserves Zuckerberg and crews figurative identity. I only do so as a pragmatic acquiescence given the other primates fealty. It’s gross.
Reality isn’t fractal. People leaving for a variety of motives, expansion of some offices, closing others… chip away at the edge of known truth.
Entropy forces new relative perspective. Humans need to do better about accepting figurative and literal death and chill. There quite literally is nowhere else to go except insane from repeating ourselves.
A rewrite of philosophical priority is a necessity for anyone under 50 and the species. That has to be taken sincerely and seriously because, well they kind of outnumber the ossified pensioner, and if they’re staring down forced obligation to choke on fire smoke for 60 years or dump gramps overboard, no one around to see it happen will be around long enough to insure it’s a footnote in any discussion of history.
Self proclaimed STEM minded secular people seem just fine ignoring evidence that does not fit the civic life narrative they’ve been spoon fed like it’s immutable truth. Seems to have latched itself onto whatever quirk of biology religion accidentally exploited; like a nihilism cause it’s all gods plan kind of woo.
“Hey look at me, mom! My life goal is making computers do what they were intentionally designed to do!”
That can be automated; any acceptable experience is a finite set of constraints. DOOM is pretty DOOMy. Same for Halo. Email clients. But hey we have figurative career ambitions, man; Google Fellow! Boom goes the dynamite.
Smaller models first; let’s make an AI to replace the CEO by assigning project management to vetted candidates via publicly audited randomizer. Term limits for geniuses who always seem to end up enjoying their own farts.
“I’m sorry general manager of capital intense AI infrastructure, you are tonight’s… weakest link! dropped into literal shark tank”
It’s been a long day. Sorry not sorry for the more unhinged off gassing.
And that’s fine. We need less low effort rage bait, viral influencer influence on the economy.
The reach of contrived political philosophy, fiat economic hustle, and pop culture gabber can be constrained; the obsolescence of /. , MySpace, and the like did not destroy reality. Now we know the outcome of the social media experiment. Utter dumpster fire.
It occurs to me people made a whole lot of small business work before handing sacks of cash to cloud SaaS
We need less adminisphere in all contexts so we can screw up again, let the wrong people helicopter us with banal AI bots, make lizard brain m sedate until it gets bored with AI bots. Then we’ll trot out a new copium for the masses and they can lean back again, super proud of their commitment to whatever hallucinated ideology they believe they’re serving.
All while waving off the ecological impact, because reality is just a big graph, mmmk
I would ditch user logins and user comments. Let OPs post a wallet or something and otherwise remain anon.
Avoid the hypernormalizing of commentary and costly moderation by forcing scrollers to comment elsewhere; cut and paste a link is not hard. Not every social media product needs the normalized set of features.
Social by default is exhausting. It’s the biggest downside to the internet and society these days. Yes we’re social creatures but we also evolved over centuries of social interaction being difficult to come by given slow travel across fast distances. We did not evolve around 24/7 consumption of human inane and repetitive first world gibberish.
Well given the policy of the US the last 70 years we’re boned if karma is coming for us.
Back to shrugging off the idea poor people on the other side of oceans are going to pick a fight with me specifically. I live in the middle; after rowing over the Pacific they’ll have to get through a lot of other people first.
Hey you should probably stop buying toxic technology and flying; would hate for the kids to karma your elder form.
Shit n hellfire; anyone making use of modern technology has little wiggle room to pontificate about why and how others are oblivious to reality of their choices.
Genius CEOs thought Fed money printer and covid were forever too.
You’re not a genius CEO. If the experts get it wrong all the time (and spend a ton of effort promoting what they “do right” to shape perception) why believe you saying 2 successful vids is a lasting trend?
Social media has exposed there is a depressing number of easily titillated by big numbers rubes in the world.
Lindy effect, Goodharts Law; the last 60-70 years are an outdated af zeitgeist to perpetuate.
Economic philosophy always ignores the real humans who will exist regardless what cherry picked economic markers indicate.
Reality will never care about any human philosophy. Humans will invest agency in interesting things regardless of some model in a vacuum anyone can conjure. Finance is has something very in common with religion; something humanity has zero obligation to perpetuate.
You have no idea what you’re talking about because we’ll just “fix” the philosophy to align with the reality. Trying to “fix people” to serve the philosophy is not happening.
