Why should your interop concerns influence choices I need to make for my project?
Shared utilitarian solutions to basic human problems like food, healthcare, shelter, Linux kernel I get
Why do I need to adopt anyone else’s “code slang” for my otherwise specific needs? If ext4 works who are you to tell me to use something you think is “better”?
Dozens of projects have gone this way and the open source community still exists
It’s almost as if the notion of one size fits all is a utilitarian idea to simplify production of physical goods
We need to maybe look at why we keep trynna force that on more ephemeral ideas
I’m not obliged to speak English any one why. Why bother with making sure everyone runs the same code or manages only one or two key projects collectively?
Capitalism as a social framework that “looks” like what we know wasn’t a thing until the mid-1800s
150+ years of “guidance” by experts, stewards of industry, and government making claims of operating roughly along that framework
And this is where we are
Humans are the problem with every social system they have built. Humans bring it down because humans get sick of propping up the dead past
These silly abstractions rely on getting everyone on board and the ones that aren’t are treated as heretics
Capitalism has never been about a free flow of capital and information
It has since its beginning been inherently about benefiting the owners who, due to HUMAN nature, not government which is used as a straw man, an abstraction away from reality (humans are doing this, not “government”)
Our economics, including capitalism are, like Trump, a byproduct of the broader cultural feelings. The words and attitudes flow; might and power bring gains. I will fight to protect them. Capitalism
You can wave the math around and I’ll say ok yes they followed the rules of math. But it’s applied to the wrong context
Humans are corruptable, emotional first animals. Capitalism manipulates that reality to favor conversation and action in support of owners
It’s inherently intended as a framework to control conversation; protect my stuff and way of life
It’s another religion. Belief and support of it are rewarded. Anything else and you starve
