You should consider moving to a rural area and staying away from technology altogether. Having access to information seems to be making you insane via anxiety.
It’s nothing but upside for you; less WiFi radiation and conspiracy addled inner monologue.
It would be so much nicer if services just hosted APIs, provided a key, and users could code their own interface, share them as Docker containers (for desktop web anyway).
I don’t need a Gmail or Lyft UX as they see it, I need to CRUD records in their database for them to distribute accordingly.
Right, the old supply and demand; a heavily accepted model drilled into us.
It’s not the only viable one to the species.
Given automation and first hand experience building analytics systems for VCs and investors; they’re not that much more capable. They’re humans at the same edge of knowledge as any grad of a decent university, of which there are millions.
Teaching “stay in your lane” tacitly props up apathy and disbelief in the proles.
If the roles are both equally necessary, why does the CEO make so much more than the secretary?
The CEOs entire enterprise is due to others. If anything explicitly highlighting that undermines the myth they’re the experts.
Both of your models rely on the CEO delegating to focus on the right state change for the business, so I’m not sure why you create two scenarios with squishy ideas of a CEO being efficient or slacking. Some CEOs have casual demeanors, others addiction to Adderall energy; neither is slacking if that’s just the vibe they need to “make it better.”
You seem to be circling the core meme it’s the CEOs job to improve the company and wrapping it up in subjective modals for doing so. Not sure how this refutes the article.
Don’t forget to mention they still have full health coverage in the EU.
It’s not possible to afford housing or robust healthcare in the US.
Keep in mind there’s no rule we have to tolerate either.
Imagine being a teenager in the US, having just seen how essential workers are treated, knowing in all likelihood your future is an “essential worker”.
The same was true with religion. There was no wonder, just gospel.
Again we’ve made a truism that we’re doing for the greater good by setting ourselves aside for the hustle. Yet no science gives anyone omniscience; we follow along because what else to do, but the high minded goals we follow along with do not have to be rockets to nowhere.
Notice how all the rich people do little real work to provide material things they need? They externalize the necessary effort required for their survival, despite being mortals who are expected to support themselves, they gossip and babble and produce little that truly supports them.
The public needs to let go of the Protestant work ethic, the mountain man struggle and become a better negotiator. The grind keeps them from imagining in detail for themselves.
If agency to make a thing must be purchased the long term viability of the thing is suspect. The work becomes about payments not the thing.
If it’s a real human problem, humans will solve it. If it’s instigated due to someone with coins in their pocket to mesmerize lizard brains, it’s a synthetic solution that will vanish with the synthetic driver of the work; payments.
Just because paying for things is common throughout history does not mean it’s necessary or the best choice long term; see Netflix propping up payment flows churning out crap. It means meat based tape recorders simply LARP the past.
I wonder what social media discourse would look like if it wasn’t full of ad spam, lamenting inequality, freedom to be oneself without old politicians being mad, and environment concerns for young people.
It’s not social media at all; it’s the reality they live in which happens to include social media. It’s plain truth; the majority don’t give a fuck about their future.
