I mean, aren’t they? In a moral, ethical, and social stance, don’t they share in the blame?

Okay, let’s say you have a fuel injected car, but instead of using the 02 sensor to decide the fuel air mixture, it just squirts the same amount of gas every time.
The hardware might be able to achieve 400 hp, but the software means it only ever achieves 50 hp
It’s like that. The software drives the hardware. It doesn’t matter how good the hardware is, the software is the brain of the operation - if the software doesn’t know how to utilize the hardware properly, you’re going to have piss poor performance


Driver’s? They literally drive the hardware your computer is using


You realize not everyone has the same level/type of ADHD? And not everyone responds the same to medicine? And that ADHD is often comorbid with other disorders?


Huh… Well this story is starting to increase in credibility


Definitely, we’re all way more sensitive to stimuli.
All you can really do is do something to distract yourself, medicated cough drops are great too, the numbing kind. Just don’t overuse them, mix them in with the kind with no active ingredients if you need to
Feel better


Well put
You want to stay home. Let the FOMO drain from your body
I use the sensation as a reminder throughout the day
I wear a slightly pinching ear cuff that reminds me to stop pretending, personally


Understandable, but it’s something to work towards. Talk to people you know about it, you’d be surprised how opportunities come out of the woodwork
It will take time, you can either go to networking events to try to speed it up or keep chugging away in a sustainable fashion in the meantime


Find a partner. It can be a person, it can be a small business that might be interested in selling your software… You need at least one partner
You could try to take out a business loan or keep grinding as a side hustle, but if you don’t know how to build a product (and I don’t mean architecture) you need someone who does
And I say it as someone who has come to that realization the hard way


Then don’t get Galaxy scale with it, I wasn’t. This has nothing to do with evolution, that’s a myth of capitalism. Capitalism developed organically, not naturally… There’s a huge difference
Throw 50 people into an empty resort for a week with nothing to do. What happens? They play games, they cook together, they go on hikes together, they start projects, they separate and return to the group as needed
This isn’t a hypothetical. Have you never experienced the natural human state? No multi day reunions or weddings? Or living on campus at University? Just any situation where money isn’t really involved and everyone is around with lots of free time


Of course. Because we’re social creatures, that’s our natural state
Most of humanity’s problems exist not because they’re inherent, it’s because for 1000 generations we’ve been building up self-reinforcing social structures that have entered the end stage. Where everything is squeezed for profit and the real value of it is drained away
We like to do things together. We’re wired for it. With unlimited time and resources, why would we not live near and visit our favorite people? Why would we not explore the world around us? Why would we not work to make life nicer? Why would we not reach out to others who fall through the cracks and find themselves isolated?


I’ve heard “join the discord” pretty often too


Yeah, but that would be like launching a nuke. The whole world is dependent on TSMC for like… All of modern life


Luxury space communism is what they have in Star Trek.
You can make anything with no human labor, so why shouldn’t everyone have access to whatever luxuries they want? Obviously there are practical limits for the common good, like everyone can’t have a yacht, there’s not room and it’d destroy the oceans. But everyone could share a fleet of yachts
Instead, people work for social status, and because humans just like working
What I’m referring to is what if we mastered automation and shared the fruits of robotic labor freely? When machines can build and maintain themselves outside of the gravity well with no human involvement, we’d have an exponentially scaling pool of workers and basically infinite raw materials
Then we’d be free to do the jobs we want to do, not what has to be done or what has a high work to reward ratio


Tomorrow the Epstein files will be released, 70% of all politicians and most billionaires will be arrested for pedophilia, and we will come together as one to build luxury space communism
Don’t wake me up.


China seems to be closest though, if they reach viable modern CPUs first…
But realistically, I think China made a deal with the West to hold off on Taiwan until we have at least one modern chip fab working in the US and Europe
I think they mean microblogging as a format
